What Have I Become?

"I never want to marry!"

"I would HATE to wake up to the same person every single day."

"Ugh, kids, I love them, but not for me."

"That woman is whipped like a pony, doing her husbands laundry and cooking him dinner, I will NEVER be like that."

ALL phrases that have left my lips. That was before I met his crazy skinny white dude who introduced himself as "knowing my cousin"... I blew the guy off... who the heck does he think he is? Like trying to hit on me in a bar is going to get him anywhere...?

Uh... yeah... well, We had round 2 at a different event the very same week... that week, HE caught MY eye... well, ear, he spoke of the B-52's.... yes, the B-52's is what brought Keith and I together... bands just don't get the prop they deserve...

And here I am... just finished my meal plan for two weeks, have a nice hot dinner ready for my man when he comes home from work, while I stay home with the muchkin.

WHA-?

Huh?

Ever have those moments where you sit and look back think, "Woah! When did I get here?"

Not in a bad way, no no no... I'm super happy.

But I expected myself to be super happy living it up in Seattle. Or backpacking through Europe with no place to call home and working from city to city just so I can make it through to my next adventure.

NEVER thought I'd be here...

But its CRAZY how life throws you a curve ball, you duck, then get hit anyway because your depth perception sucks and you suddenly have your eyes open this whole world you never thought you wanted.

Why?

Crazy little thing called Love.

L-O-V-E... does silly thing to a independent artist who is deteremined not to confine herself to the norms of what society expects me to become!!!!!! AHHHHHH!!! I am a FREE woman!!!!

Truth is. I have never been happier. More free. And more at peace with life than I am now.

So next time life throws you a curve ball and you get hit... it might be the hit you needed to see straight... or crooked.
