So here’s the thing. I think that I actually wrote this blog post, and then, in an Inception-esque fashion planted it in your brain. I’m going through your blog entries because you and Nicole are totally unlike anyone I’ve ever heard of and I love it, and I think you’re both amazing and fascinating.

And its a little weird, because I obsessively drink venti iced vanilla lattes and love the West Wing. And this blog post represents exactly what I think is the problem with the way that I live my life. So thanks for making me feel a little less weird and a little less lonely.

Jamie,

My first time here and this post is awesome! Your blog was listed in a post at Untemplar.com. Isn’t it funny how your mind wants to know these nitty gritty details that really.. noone cares for?

Looking forward to reading past entries. Wonder if you ever found a job.

great post! I can totally relate. I have reached the same point. I just want to take a risk.

I see a lot of people are commenting on this because they can relate. Well meeee toooooo except my story went a little differently. Irrelevant. Anyway now I’m having that trapped, need-to-break-out-immediately feeling too that makes me do all sorts of irrational shit just for the sake of doing it. I never really realized it might be because I was too goody-goody and smart and normal my whole life, (err, my whole grade school life), but I think that’s precisely the reason. I haven’t gotten it all out of my system yet, but maybe one day I will, and maybe then I’ll also find the balance between being safe/smart and still having fun/getting crazy. In the meantime I’ll just have to come visit and help Nicole show you exactly how to make bad decisions

Hahaha.. my logic and emotion have been bitchslapping each other for a while now. Someone should tell them to give peace a chance. They’re not listening to me anymore.

All I can say is that…Gosh I am so glad I kept you out of Gate!!! You may have turned out to be a Snobbish-spoiled-little-brat-bitchy-pretty-pretty-little-monster!!! Wheew!! Sometimes MOMS-Intuition is everything!!!
Oh and BTW I did buy you the entire grocery store play set. You played with that store non-stop and poor Nicky he was always the shoppper never the clerk!! You should have let him be the clerk just ONCE!!! Jeeeez!!
Well maybe he should’nt have been playing girls games anyway..but in order to play with you, he would be forced to play all the girl games…..

It was great!!!! hee! hee! He loved every minute of it!! As long as he was WITH YOU!!

You know that’s true!!

Nice… I had a similar epiphany a couple years ago (though I probably wasn’t able to express it quite as clearly )… I think it’s a huge breakthrough, realizing that if you don’t break out of “I’ve got my shit together” mode and let your guard down, you’ll totally miss out on the best parts of life (Namely, love). I wish you the best of luck
I wonder how frequent that mental hurdle is among gifted/talented kids from our generation?! I would guess that it’s at least more frequent among the logic/math types than the creative/writer types.
