It’s a RED ALERT DAY in VA cause ya girl is truly feeling herself to-day. I could tell you how that came to be but um, then you’d know too much. *wink*

Just know that the sun is shining, my spirit is light, and the thought of what is yet to unfold this day (and the next and so on and so on) is giving me butterflies.

Could be that I realized that sometimes I straddle the fence too much and too often. Comfortable. Neutral. Not ruffling feathers. That’s what I told myself. In reality? I wasn’t moving. I was stuck. Actually, I wasn’t so much “stuck” as I was holding myself back. It goes back to yesterday’s post about Fear cross-dressing as procrastination and its careless whispers. Somebody had a mini-breakthrough huh? Yea me! And all it took was a mini-breakdown. And someone who cares to get in my face in a way that was undeniable at a time when I was open and ready for it.

Anyway, I’m heading out to shake up the city (it’s 9:15am…I’ll be back by 9:30am. LOL). I leave you with a couple of songs that I like. I’d drop a little Chrisette Michelle in your ear but I don’t have time to hunt for it. If you don’t have her CD “I AM” and you’re looking for some good music, you need to pick it up.

Note for YOU re: “neutral”…my use of that word is pure coincidence. Don’t let it go to your head. Someone once told me that taking that first step might get rid of the butterflies I was feeling but um, their constant presence might be a good thing….I’m just saying….it might be….
