Meet Priscilla:
Today I drove home from Chatsworth with a sock puppet on my hand.
Cute, huh? I made her today with my niece, Hannah. She made Maryax (what a name!) and I made Priscilla. Kinda took on a life of her own.
But did you catch the part where I said that I drove home with her on my hand?
Yeah.
So, I think that I've reached an all-new level of crazy tonight... AND, I am learning that I really, really enjoy entertaining people. Because all along the route, as Priscilla and I danced and sang along to the radio, I was hoping that people were looking. And maybe they were, but I wanted to act all non-chalant, as if nothing out-of-the-ordinary was happening. When I thought that was ridiculous and that I should be embarrassed, I realized how much I'd appreciate if I saw someone else doing the same thing on the freeway, and how I'd probably tell people about it, or at least get a good laugh out of it.
So, this is the year of doing things because I want to do them; doing what makes me FEEL GOOD, and what I enJOY, and what brings a smile to my face and emanates from my HEART.
So, world (that's 3 "SOs" in a row, btw), you can look out for the following to occur in 2012 because of my newfound preference for freedom:
~SINGING ALOUD IN THE GROCERY STORE. (Ok. I already do that.)
~DANCING DOWN THE STREET.
~SINGING WITH MY SOCK PUPPET IN THE CAR. (Check!)
~SKIPPING.
~TALKING TO STRANGERS EVERYWHERE. (A stranger is just a friend you haven't met.)
~TELLING JOKES THAT AREN'T FUNNY.
~KARAOKE. Lots of it.
~DISNEYLAND. (Who's in??)
~VOICES.
~A RESURGENCE OF MUSICALS IN MY LIFE.
~LYRICAL DANCE.
~And much, much more.
Just want to warn you all who plan to hang out with me this year that any of this may be happening. If you'd like to participate, be in touch. If you'd prefer not to be involved, be my audience. God knows I love a good audience.
Peace & Joy in 2012,
~K
Have been known to squeek at state rangers and police officers with a monkey puppet out the car window. It really is amazingly entertainting. Don't know about dancing down the street but have definitely danced in the street. Karaoke is evil. Have been singing aloud (probably badly) at the store my whole life :) I really prefer not talking to strangers though, people tend to irritate me. Nice, happygoals that you have here. Thank you for helping me realize how much fun I have without appreciating it. Have a great year and I wish you luck and much much fun!
