I think I may have lost my mojo. I’m almost sure I had it at one point. I think I might have been sexy once. Way back, last summer, maybe. The most alluring thing about me now is my side bang, which hangs ever so seductively in my face and sometimes gets in my eye, forcing me to twitch.
I told this guy I was a klutz and he was amused. If only he knew.
I go to my Inbox and it’s empty and then I know for sure I don’t have it anymore. I may actually be flattered if ever I am the subject of a catcall by construction workers. I might even smile.
I am thinking I need to make another mistake, shake myself up a bit. Even if it’s not right, I need something real, in the flesh. I need something not-numb. This is what’s called maladaptive behavior, and I like it.

Not numb……But perhaps broken?
Very few write about the truth……A sincere thanks for your raw, uncensored thoughts….For some of us who struggle we NEED to read your words.

Mojo resting? I remember mojo like a vague dream of motivation. I don’t miss mine at all, only ever got me into trouble. You sound like what you need is some old fashioned guilt free fun.

And actually the first paragraph made me laugh out loud. Nice.
