Full Steam Ahead


I started blogging when my life took an unexpected turn, with the hopes of purging whatever hellish pain was writhing inside my head. Sometimes, this helped.

But I find myself holding back lately, not wanting to record for posterity the wicked thoughts contained within me. What if someone reads it. What if nobody does.

I am tired of be painted as this "derailed freight train of emotional bullshit and absolute lunacy" who choses to know her adversary. I am tired of hearing inaccuracies about my life. I am tired of not being able to defend myself, because what would that matter, anyway.
I am just tired.

But I have realized that I am a very intelligent woman, despite my doubts of myself, despite my fears and despite the opinions of mis-guided others.

I may not be chock-full of sage advice and I may possess a plethora of quirks, but I am, for all intents and purposes, a pretty normal person.

That is, of course, for a freight train.
