glamazon

so first i was too glam for guiyang. and now i am just plain too glam. in fact, glamazon. so i am sparkling away from these grey skies tomorrow for two full weeks of joy and sunshine, good french fries and lambrusco, snuggling with the world's most wonderful nephew and laughing with my dearest friends, running on the beach and escorting one of my heart friends down the aisle. so, so excited. watch out, meiguo.

when i was recently with one of my sisters one of us remarked that i might just be too glam to be a human rights lawyer. at least in the long run. (the absolutely atrocious and appalling air quality and residual grey of the last few weeks literally has my inner diva ablaze and wanting to dress like a bollywood j.lo every morning. it's all i can to do contain it and tone it down to a respectable level.) anyway, even though i can't recall who said it, i am recalling the remark now. within the last week, a potential new direction has whirlwinded into my life and i am most intrigued. have literally found myself waking in the middle of the night thinking about it. and, as a recovering insomniac, it has been just terribly wonderful to find myself sleepless with excitement over a professional opportunity rather than heartache or over-thinking about a boy. terribly wonderful. (though it takes the same toll on my skin. unfortunately the substance of reason for sleeplessness does not influence form of resultant poor skin.) not sure how this will all unfold, but i am enjoying being in the midst of it for now. watch this space. and watch space. there's so much room for more love and beauty and joy in each and every day. i'm about to go cram as much as i can into the next two weeks.
don't cry for me jingshan park, i'll see you soon. and suspect that i'll still be too glam when i get back.
