I Think Maybe I Can
I’m really worn out from all the status games on Facebook. The color of my bra, the style of my hair at that moment…who cares. Seriously. I did change my photo for “way-back week” when a very-long-time friend of mine tagged me in a picture of us around the age of kindergarten. But high school photos, then wedding photos, hell no.
Today, a guy (an old classmate who I sometimes truly believe is still lost in his teenage years, and probably makes these games up himself to pretend it’s still 1987) asked everyone to change their photo to a fictional character that resembles their personality. I’m 41, I don’t have fictional heroes. I don’t have heroes, period. Sorry.
However, if I truly was mandated to do this stupidly dumb project, I would pick the little girl in Ruth Krauss & Mary Blair’s Little Golden Book…
Gubble gubble gubble, I’m a mubble in a pubble. I can play, I’m anything that’s anything. That’s MY way.
I love her confidence!
If I had it, I could fly, too.
