Nothing Profound
Today is one of those days where I am just blah. Nothing profound is coming out of my mouth today, unless you count barking out orders as “profound”. Here I am sitting in Virginia surrounded by my family and one of my best friends and I can do is sit back sullen because I want take a huge set of pliers to my tooth. Man does it hurt. Ambesol is no longer rescuing me from this incessant pain. It’s not their fault that I’m not feeling well, yet I seem to be taking it out on them. What a friend/wife/mother right? Why was I blessed with the gift of making the lives of my family and friends a living…I won’t go there. But seriously I am not a queen, contrary to what I may think. I am just a simple person who has the ability to at times treat the people I care about the most like crud.
I recently took the Enneagram and scored as an Individualist or Number 4 which basically characterizes what I wrote above. I’m thinking back to an old episode of Seinfeld where Jerry had to go on the Today Show to promote his comedy tour, but Kramer’s girlfriend, the quiet talker convinced him to wear a pirate shirt. Jerry whines over and over again, “but I don’t want to be a pirate!” I hear myself uttering over and over again, “but I don’t want to be a number four!”
Tomorrow is another day. I’m off to apologize to my family and my BFF.
