geez, i'm posty today

[daniwithtea]

I'm ganking this, completely without permission, from cadhla, because I think it kicks ass. If I get eaten alive by zombies, you'll know it's because I stole this idea and, well, I'm fairly certain Seanan has zombie connections. Read her original post here.

Here's the sitch:

People spend a lot of time on LJ bitching about themselves. But yanno what? We all fucking rock. So I want each and every one of you to tell me at least one reason why you rock. I don't care if I have no idea who you are, if you have no idea who I am - it doesn't matter. You all rock. Tell the world why. Anonymous posting is welcome, but I encourage synonymous posting, so the entire LJ world can see exactly who you are and why you kick ass.

To get the ball rolling, I'll start.
I treat my cat like the goddess that she is.
I pulled myself out of a near-deadly hellhole and learned how to really live.
And I make a mean pan sauce, bitch.

Hope you don't mind if I copy one, kinda sorta...

I can make a roux and turn that into a damn fine gumbo.
I pulled myself out of a near-deadly hellhole and am learning how to really live, be who I am, and all that.
I can research / investigate like nobody's business.

I am doing a damn good job of raising three pretty terrific nonbrat kids .
I got my ass out of poverty and the projects and a shitty lifestyle.
And I am one crafty-creative kick ass woman !

Your challenge is an excellent one, but I find that I can't follow your format. There are hundreds of things I can do that I could post short one-liners about, but they're not the important bits.

The most important bit is that I've managed to keep my personal integrity. I am a compassionate and generous human being, and my world continues to be open to others. I still need to develop its immune-system, and I'm working on that.

best,

Joel. Who's surprised; that was a lot shorter than I thought it would be.

I am an awesome friend. I am a terrific mom with excellent kids who are my #1 priority. I can shake my booty with abandon no matter who's watching! ;)


I like this idea...my close girlfriends and I have "I'm jealous of you because" sessions where we all tell why we are jealous of each other...it's the same idea! ;)
