Damn! Girl hit it outta the park. Sounds like the lady’s earning her keep.
…As opposed to talking to me which would sounded like “something, something, do it in the butt”.
And what good would come of that?!

Seriously, though: I love a meaty dichotomy. And I like the title, about how there’s this girl you know, but when you further consider the self-inquiry in regards to what your therapist said, there’s two girls you know. The Mel you like and the one you don’t like. BUT, for it to be both the same aspect, but the same super-powers.

Cuz reading back, is the girl you hate this jealous whosherface, or is it yourself? Cuz, you’re pretty damn permanent and all. SO, be the you that you like. No?

WOooo! I need coffee. And isn’t Prince from Detriot? I thought it was an M state…

I have nothing witty to say, only that this post was sheer genius.

I’m so jealous.

Mela, love the new layout, tres manifique!

November, what are you smoking and where can I get me some.

And on to the post. It’s was hard when I realized that I knew this girl and on a deep level, I really hated her. And it was harder when I began to understand that everything I hated about her I had made up over the course of DAYS while I was looking through pictures, trying on clothes, and brushing my teeth. But it’s so hard because now those things feel like TRUTH instead of complete and utter BULLSH**. Bleh. I don’t know if that made sense.

But I’m glad you’re still writing, it’s good to see you again.

Mel, thanks for this post. I’m dealing with someone right now and we don’t like each other. In fact, she’s a raging bitch who can only have things her way. No, I’m not jealous of her–she’s an ugly, old, bitter woman–not something I want to be. But, I can’t help but wonder if she’s jealous of me because I’m young, smart, pretty, and happy.

May your niece be wild, carefree, and confident in herself that she may dance to whatever music is in her head. Any time. Any place. Just as you do. b
