Okay, we're gonna dig around in the Blog Challenge. I'll be doing my blog posts at night. You can read them in the morning, man. I like writing in the mornings, but my mornings are booked to the tilt right now.
So let's DO this here thang:
Day one is "Introduce Yourself"
That's hard. Why? Because I can't come up with anything new. But we will try.
I am LadyLee.
That is all.
LOL. Just playing.
"LadyLee" was my street/tag grafitti name in highschool. It's the "id" part of my personality, mixed with the comical side of my personality. If you know me in real life, I am terribly quiet and not at all funny. The LadyLee part of me is a bit on the crazy side, to say the least. It is also the mentally "free" part of who I am.
I am the Oldgirl.
"Oldgirl" was a codename we used in grad school when we were talking about people on the sly. It somehow morphed into a greeting and a battlecry. If I call you "Oldgirl", these days it means you alright with me, lol.
I am Lisa.
That is what my family calls me. Don't come around asking for me by my gub'ment name. You may not get an answer.
I am Lee.
Another family name. A few people, especially bloggers, call me that. The name was given to me by my late Grandfather. He also called me "Sweet". I do miss all that.
I am Sugar Girl.
That is my Grandmother's name for me. This name is the good, honest and deepthinking side of my personality. It reminds me that I am not a bad person. I am sweet. I am good.
I am Dr. Parker.
I like having a title, even though I don't use it much. Somehow this has become a nickname for me. That is cool. I EARNED that title some 12 years ago. It is part of who I am. That's the mad scientist part of me.
And I am simply Alesia. That's my government name. It's the totality of all that above.
I can be your best friend. Or your worst nightmare.
You may not be able to handle or accept the loner that I am. Or you may appreciate it.
I won't purposely do anything to hurt you. But it is very easy for me to walk away if you're playing games or wrecking my steelo.
I am chronically ill. But I am happy to say that even with lupus, I get along just fine without assistance.
I like sowing seed into people's lives, very generous, usually in the most unexpectant of ways, but I never loan money, as I am all I got, and I can't afford to lose it (circle back up to the "worst nightmare" line above).
I am a tomboy who likes a good pedicure and some plum lipstick every once in awhile.
I am not a beautiful woman, but not a day goes by that I don't look in the mirror and tell myself how beautiful I am.
I am a divorced woman, and like any woman, I want the man of my dreams. But desperation is nowhere in my vocabulary. It is not an option,
I am a writer who bleeds ink on the pages. More than I should at times... with my long-winded tail.
I love God. God loves me... with my consistently inconsistent self.
But most of all, I am who I am.
Not enough words in the dictionary to describe who I be in entirety.
No one born before me or who will be born after me is like me.
I am an Original.
And I promise you, whatever you may think of me...
You will remember me.
And...
You will never meet another person like me.
At Home In the Words I write...I've missed Blogging
-
These days of Summer are sweet and fleeting. I've been away too long. Away
from this blog. This holy place where I live on the words I conjure.
So much goo...
