that was then, this is hubris

Admittedly I think it’s random I’m writing something new on Dec 23 after a year of nothing
Why not wait till January 1, make it a real new start?
I’m impatient and impulsive, but most importantly
Because I just really want to. I miss writing.

(I’ll add here that my mom, step dad and their dog arrive tonight for 10 days,
and my brother, and his dog will add to the awesomess in 2 days.
For a total of 4 adults (one of which the other 3 are convinced suffers from a personality disorder)
and 3 dogs.
I live in a townhouse.
I may need to scriptly let it out before making an ass of myself)

Oh, and in advance, I’m sorry Hawthorne.

A short time ago I was told:
“There are no what if's Brens, only what the fucks”.
At first I was like.. wtf?
But then I thought YES! OF COURSE!
Waaay easier on the heart and mind
and puts regrets into the silly box they belong in anyway.

So while I won’t go into great detail about my 2010 WTF’s,
I will say the main things I learned from them are:
Patience, Acceptance,
and it really is worth waiting before responding. Really.

I will say that as I look back, I do so with a chuckle
and with solid belief that even if you don’t think Dexter being scared of the dishwasher is
reason enough NOT pack up shop and move overseas,
I know that was the only reason I would notice to stop me long enough
to allow whatever is next meant for me, to find me.

Here’s to an awesome 2011 filled with change, adventure, and many entries to shake our heads at and ask

What the fuck mang”
