Share…….I’d rather not

This is the first entry of a series I’d like to call – ‘Random Thursday’, where I will post the random conversations that are shared among friends and within my head.  I’m pretty random….and so are my friends – so you should expect a new entry every week, along with some recycled postings from my previous random-loving blog.  Enjoy 🙂

So I’m visiting a friend of mine for a fun night over one of our favorite shows – SVU.  We stan for Benson, and our shared love is one of the threads that holds our friendship together.  My friend happened to be eating a Subway sub upon my arrival at his place, and being the polite young man that he tries to present himself to be, he offers me some of his sandwich.  I was kind of hungry, and gladly accepted – to which he gave me a disappointed and slightly angry face.  “Did you just Theo Dance Mania me?” I asked him.  He looks at me, laughing before replying ‘Yes’, and then proceeds to cut the half of the sandwich previously given to me  into fourths.  I gave him the side-eye before eating my fourth of a sandwich – which was absolutely delish, and learned a valuable lesson from this whole ordeal.  One, Subway sandwiches are the bomb.com, and two, never expect a friend’s food offer to be given with joy.  Yes they may give you their food, but they won’t be happy about it…..at least the greedy ones won’t be.

And so it begins….

I guess a ‘Hi’ is in order *insert wave*.  I’m Angie and I’ve started this blog for two reasons: 1) I like writing, and 2) I wanted a creative outlet.  I’ve kinda dug writing since childhood, and even remember the first short story I wrote in the third grade entitled “Pollution needs a Solution”….wow, I was on my way to solving environmental crises at the the tender age of 8, lol!  As time passed, I fell out of “like” with writing as grown-up responsibilities took her place.  But now writing and I are trying to get that old thing back 🙂  This blog is one of those avenues through which I hope to rekindle our relationship, and to get some other things out.  I started another blog a few months ago that was a fun project for awhile (it allowed my random side to run free…wheeeeee!), but felt creatively limited content-wise.  Until one day, a different norm was born.  The name itself was so fitting for me.  I’ve been considered a little weird throughout my life and have even identified with that label….but ultimately realized that I was just being myself.  So now, as I stare 30 down in the face, I’ve come to terms with being me.  Authentically, slightly weird at times, clumsy, nerdy, analytical, goofy, creative me.  And this is my blog….welcome!
