Contradictions

I've always thought I was not normal. I've always been somewhat of an outsider. I don't follow trends. Well I guess I would have to some degree in primary school just to fit in, but I distinctly recall in high school not following what other people thought I should be like. Doing my own thing.

And now I do it to an even bigger extent. The posse are all a little pretentious. I'm told off for what I wear, how I talk, where I like to go for drinks, how I vote and my cooking methods. I'm not changing for them. I like wearing T Shirts, jeans and sneakers. I will use the term "shat out a baby" instead of giving birth, I'll go to a place just cause it has cheap drinks and isn't a posers hangout. I will NEVER vote Liberal and I will continue cooking food in the microwave.

I'll spend the majority of my time with like minded people. People who know how to have fun my way.

I went out for 2 glasses of wine on Wednesday with B and Max. 3 bottles later and I forgot everything that happened after about 8pm. Including the journey home, through the door, into my PJs then bed. But it happened and the only thing missing was my paperwork for jury duty that I had to send by today, including the letter of exemption from my manager.

I called B who had no idea where it was and suggested Max might know. I caller her and it turned out I'd been waving it everywhere and she took it from me and posted it yesterday.

These girls have seen me at my silliest and instead of making fun of me, laugh with me, and still want to do it all again another time.

Less wine next time though.
