So Where Do I Go Now?

I start a new life, a new career, and a new blog--that's where. I went through several transformative changes over the last year (yes, I'm still a female-nothing that drastic) and figured I needed a new blog to begin documenting them.

I separated from my husband in August and on December 1st packed my gypsy bags and moved to a fabulous sublet in downtown Gainesville, Florida. I love being in a city again, even a smaller town. Sorry Valdosta, but this place just does my head in. I'm not going on a Valdosta bashing rampage. I agree with the adage that if you don't like it, move on. I can't change this place, but I can change my location.

As a stand up comedian/writer here, I was just bombing it. Most of my humor was going straight over a majority of the audience--in fact I don't think I have any followers in Valdosta.

So thinking up a new blog, I wanted it to reflect a mid-life transition without being yet another cliched story about a woman starting over. Obviously I like BIG challenges. I refused to use any reference to mid-life, boomer, aging, born again, menopausal, or any of the other overused adjectives to describe or name my new work in progress.

All I could say was that I was a runaway. A wild, new, free woman. A delinquent. Dangerous and unpredictable.

Then I saw my face, which is in need of filler.

There it was. The Juvederm Delinquent.

Pretty, but Shallow may go on in time. But as a newly single woman living in the heart of the University of Florida campus, I have had to scale back on my lifestyle.

I love the city. I love the energy. I love the traffic. I love walking around just being myself and that people get me. It's like coming home.

So come see me over at the new spot and follow my adventures as I learn to use public laundry services, public library computers (when I can shove a homeless person aside), and learn where to get the highest dollar for my twice weekly plasma sales, and learn to dodge used condoms flung on the sidewalk during my daily walks.

See you at http://www.thejuvedermdelinquent.blogspot.com. Don't dress up, it's totally casual.
