Genius or Gorgeous?

February 12, 2011February 13, 2011 ~ JodiLea

I am already smart enough.

I want to feel how I imagine it feels to be extremely good-looking. It must be wonderful to have self-confidence. To not worry about what people are looking at, or thinking, when you enter a room. To instantly be given the benefit of the doubt instead of treated with suspicion. To be flirted with instead of ignored, or worse, avoided. To get a friendly warning instead of a traffic ticket. People are just more patient and courteous. Men smile at you. A Knight in Shining Armour around every corner: guys happy to open doors for you, help you carry things, change your flat tire. Help you when you’re lost. Ask and thee shall receive.

At least that is what I imagine extremely pretty women experience. I would like to experience this. However, no matter how much make-up, cute hair styles or fabulous clothes I put on – I stay little Miss Plain. The only thing worse than a photograph of me is video. Ugh. Hollywood is not looking for this gal.

Given the choice, I will definitely go with gorgeous. Please don’t tell me it was a rhetorical question. I’ll am waiting …

Things People with Multiple Personalities Shouldn’t Do

Jodi (et al.)

All of these persona’s blog here. If you have followed along for a while, you may have “met” most of them. They ALL have something to say. I keep a notebook to jot down ideas, research, topics & whatnot, I some of the stuff in there amazes me, obviously written by et al.

This is why I should not:

Get a Tattoo. Who would get to decide? We would be mortified by any image that suited another.
Go to Las Vegas. Not to mention any names, but one of us is a bit sleazy, one of us is a compulsive gambler, and who knows what kind of trouble the Goth one would cause.
Get Married. My poor husband Bruce. Every evening when he leaves work, he has no clue who he is coming home to. He is exhausted.
Work with Alzheimer’s patients. Those poor souls have enough confusion in their lives. They certainly don’t need us.
Go anywhere without a GPS: Not a single one of us has any sense of direction. I mean none… whatsoever.
Have the combination to the gun safe: The Government could learn from Bruce and the boys about keeping top-secret information from getting into the wrong hands.

Hey! Who are you calling “a bit sleazy” you sanctimonious witch! I think you’re jealous because Bruce absolutely adores me. All you want to do is work and blog. And nap, like now. And do-tell, who is the gambler?

My Dream Vacation

February 10, 2011February 10, 2011 ~ JodiLea

I have fantasized about my dream vacation more than once. I will share it with you, but you can’t come with me, got it?

A friend, limo driver, someone, drops me off at San Francisco International Airport. I fly first class to Miami, where I board a cruise ship headed for the South Caribbean. Why fly when you can be entertained, pampered and generally spoiled on the way? Continue reading “My Dream Vacation” →
