I have so much going on in my mind right now guys. I’ve started to write something here several times and it all seems so… hollow. It’s a fine line I walk between wanting to honestly share my feelings and express myself through my writing and yet wanting to hold something back. Once you say things you can’t take them back. That’s a lesson I’ve learned well over the years.
I’ll let y’all in on a little secret about me. I’m actually NOT all that good at expressing myself. Not in person anyway. Whenever there is a conversation about MY feelings or MY happiness I tend to avoid it like the plague. I’m so worried that I’ll say the wrong thing or come across in some negative way that I didn’t mean that I seem to choke over my own words. They never come.
I also cry during conversations that involve feelings. A LOT. Not because I’m being manipulative or whatever it is guys automatically think. Do guys actually think we LIKE sniveling and having runny noses? I think it totally undermines whatever point I’m trying to make AND it’s embarrassing. I hate it. I hate myself when I do it. But I can’t stop the tears from coming. It’s fucking annoying.
Why can’t we just write letters? Like people used to “in the good old days”? Writing gives me time to go back and re-think and re-work and edit to my little obsessive compulsive heart’s content. But who am I kidding? I can’t even bring myself to be 100% honest and open in my writing. Must I always hold something back?
Sorry for the rambling… if you want something lighter go here and check out the place we’ll be staying in Cabo. Pretty sweet no? Can’t wait! 21 days and counting…

I'm not sure if I should be offended that you think I take 15 bags on vacation? Or flattered that you offered to carry them!
Twit.
And I know I kind of ruined the post... See what I mean about the feelings thing? Serious followed by let's have some laughs. Very slight of hand. Very me.
I know what you mean about holding back. It used to be that my blog was the one arena of my life where I could write and be completely honest...Now all of these people I know read it (local people, people I actually know personally), and now I can't write about everything. Which sucks, because I feel like I'm suffocating. So I know what you mean. I'm here if you need me.
Lof mew. There is nothing I can say here that you don't already know. But just in case, I am here.
Hey Tiff.
