it all started when lacey was caressing the wall. "it has been far too long since i've caressed anything" she said. then that got me to thinking.
we are told to express our talents, to use them and improve upon them. to not hide them in the sand or under a bushel or whatever. so what is a girl supposed to do when one of her best talents is not in high demand??
we are trying for sure. we are being social. we went to church, we went to break the fast, we went to a party, we talked to many people...pretty much all men too! yet still, our product left, going stale, on the proverbial shelf. covered in dust that we are constantly trying to shake off, our love lives seem to be doomed to meet their expiration dates. all the while the newer, shinier product moves in to stores nationwide taking all of the spotlight and stealing the customer's gaze, while we're moved back to the clearance aisle. who shops the clearance aisles? those who are too poor to buy the shiny products...who inevitably we are hesitant to go home with.
damn the free market system.

Janna, you are gorgeous, smart, creative, witty, fun, AND funny. Don't try so hard. You're not a "last-season" bargain on the clearance isle; you ARE a treasure in the storefront window too expensive for commoners to buy. Just wait for the real customers to come in.
je n'ai aucune idée. je desire que j'en aurais. at least we go stale together?
oh you and your...(ahem) talent. just save it for the one who deserves it. there aren't that many who do.
OH MY GOSH JANNA I LOVE YOU!!!
this is rediculous. I don't even write stuff like that. and I AM old. okay? seriously. funny, but untrue. funny, witty but only for the 30 + (at least) category. YOU ARE NOT THAT MORMON.
just because i want to be dating someone doesnt make me mormon. i just want someone to like me, not marry me.
