I've never been much of an actress, as my "professional" acting career
sponsored ego-boosting roles such as: "attendant no. 5," "the owl" (in
Charlotte's Web. Oh, wait..there isn't an owl in Charlotte's Web? I
KNOW! They made that role for me because I apparently wasn't suitable
for any of the normal farm animal characters) and finally my career
abruptly ended my senior year of high school with the final of all
roles: "background girl number 17; therefore, one can plainly see
though my life has been woven by several threads of drama, the dramatic spotlight never really was my thing.
Though,in reality I do play several roles (some better than others. maybe.)
Seeing that I usually wish my everyday encounters with life were accompanied by grand musical scores and coordinated dance moves, the everyday roles I play can become somewhat monotonous; however, my favorite role of all thus far in my mere twenty-one years on this earth is the role of "auntie belle". My sister nicknamed me "belle" when I was younger (short for Campbell) which was slightly odd seeing that Taryn and I both had the same last name as children. I decided to degrade her to the nickname "T". Yea, I showed her. Truly though, she still beckons me by the title "belle,"
therefore Colsen's intuition crafted "auntie belle". When I was younger,
my nickname always had somewhat of a melodic tune "i love you, belle," "you look so cute, belle" and "great job, belle". Now, thanks to a two year old's piercing cry, my lifetime nickname follows nothing but horribly terrifying squeals. "NO! Auntie Belle!" "My do's it, Auntie Belle!" "I want my Mommy, Auntie Belle!" Now hearing my ownname is almost insulting; therefore, as nothing short of revenge I too will shorten Taryn's last name. My sister, Taryn, will now be referred to as "FERT" And I will make sure that Colsen, lovely Colsen, will refer to her nothing other than "Mama Fert" (and "big mama fert" for the duration of her pregnancy).
I must say, I do love that little booger.
I love Colsen, too.
Today was more than satisfying. The Carolina sun welcomed a day by the pool, an extremely healthy lunch of Chic-Fil-A nuggets, and a Mexican dinner at La Paz with my Mom this evening. Pardon me, I meant- Big Mama Cone
