How I did it
How to maybe set up house somewhere
It took me
27 years
It made me
Amazed

How I did it: Ummm, I had to get clean and sober in order for this to happen.Which is obviously not going to help everyone... I was stubborn. I was proud of the fact I lived out of suitcases, and in hotels, and with friends and boyfriends. It takes a lot A LOT of energy to keep up that lifestyle. Read how I did it…

take back America from the jerks (read all 3 entries…)
WOO WOO WOO! 3 weeks ago

So I suppose this is an ongoing thing. But President Barack Hussein Obama is a great start. And turning NC BLUE was huge for me. The Obama campaign was my blood, sweat, and tears. You don’t know hate and bigotry until you’ve been canvassing in small southern mountain communities. YES WE DID.

2 and a half years and counting !!! 3 weeks ago

MAN. I haven’t been on 43things in WAY TOO LONG. This is such a great site. I thought about deleting this account and starting a ‘The New Juliana’ account, but for now I’m going to hold off. I’m going to sit and read through all [ok, maybe not all b/c I think I have hundreds] of my entries. And I KNOW a ton are going to make me cringe and shudder… but it’ll be good for me to see how much I’ve changed. And THEN I might do another account, lol!

This sobriety thing is a WHOLE NEW WORLD. I’ve experienced so much tragedy and beauty the past 2+ years… every day I am still amazed at what my present life is like. Highs and lows people, highs and lows. Did come to the realization that I had never experienced the emotion JOY until recently… I thought, ‘What the hell is this insanely happy giddy beautiful amazing feeling??!’. Ahhhhh HA. I think they call this JOY.

I wonder if my old 43things buddies are still around? I know Casey is… who else?

Here’s a new idea… use this site for getting support and sharing my hopes and dreams. If I’m lucky helping other people out along the way. I AM BRILLIANT!

P.S. > NEVER would’ve been able to work on the Obama campaign and go to inauguration boozing it up!
