Heartless Bitch in training, actually. I keep at it. After a couple of years of randomly landing on your site, reading the columns (gleefully, I'll admit) I thought now was the time to ask for a pass from the Bouncer.
After freelancing, falling flat on my face, getting up again, getting a job, a clue, a plan, some confidence and earning the money to get my by-now flabby backside into gear, I'm going back to school this year. I hope to find a reprieve from the "carer role" people seem determined to shove into my unwilling arms. I plead sanctuary from pink teddy-bears.
I don't take myself too seriously, apart from my sense of self-determination and personal responsibility. And I fully expect to find those qualities in spades in the members of your message-boards. It'll be interesting to read up on members' thoughts and opinions.
Clawing myself out of cloy-ville and getting a well-deserved pointy-booted kick in the shins from time to time, I'm now confidently and grinningly turning over a new leaf. I no longer feel compelled to be "understanding" if someone refuses to make themselves understood. I got over the compulsion to be "nice" indiscriminately. Nice doesn't mean s**t when you don't have the means to improve yourself.
So, with my shiny new spine, grit, tenacity and determination to Not Make Apologies for Myself (nor, hopefully, an ass) I'd like to apply for newbie in Clueville and on the Heartless Bitches International message-boards. Having passed sophomore year in Bitch-school and gotten over myself I think I can now hold my own with the real deal.
