Self-improvement: CHECK.

I've decided to change my ways. It's a long list, really, but I think the most important change occurred to me this morning. I'm going to start with the little things - because, you know, those make the biggest difference in the end, right?

I will no longer be signing my emails, cards, and letters with words like "Sincerely," "Thank you," "Regards," (but that one is because I'm afraid I'll hit the T instead of the G sometimes...) and "Love."

I'm going to start reflecting how I truly feel sometimes. Other times, I'll use words merely for their comedic or ironic value. Words like "Menacingly," "Disparagingly," and "Gregariously" will now appear just before I proudly sign my name to anything. I also just received something signed "Forebodingly" and I think that is also entirely appropriate. Don't you think that's something that should come on a loan application? I do. But would you expect it to be on an email from your best friend? Probably not. Would it be funny though? Absolutely.

See what I mean?

I think this is a great new beginning on the road to becoming a better cooler person. If nothing else, it will surprise people; throw off their groove for just long enough to cause them to wonder, "Is she serious? Does she really mean that?" And the best part will be I'll never tell so you'll never actually know. :) I like to make people wonder sometimes. It's fun to be ambiguous and...another word that says something about me being funny and clever. I'm too tired to think of the word right now. It'll come to me as soon as I push PUBLISH POST. Promise.

Because that's what I am. Funny and clever. Sometimes weird. I laugh at things that aren't always funny (you may count this post as an example if you don't think I'm funny...because right now I think I'm hysterical) and cry about things that aren't always sad...(one time I started crying when my friend Angela offered me a piece of chocolate and I'd just barely brushed my teeth, and...yep. I did that.) but that's part of the DeeAura package, so...that's all. 

(I full admit this picture is stolen from Hyperbole and a Half.)

I slept very little last night. Something about 3 a.m. makes my brain want to be awake these days. I blame this current trend for the possible oddity of this post. :)

Happy Thursday! I'm packing a million boxes tomorrow. so. cool. can't. wait.

Cantankerously,

DeeAura
