Catitude

The other day I was driving... to somewhere VERY important I'm sure.. and there it was. An old beat up van with duct taped windows and on it was a sign that said "Catitude".  It was inscribed with tacky, faded bubble lettering and it was AWESOME.  For the thousandth time I wished I had a phone that wasn't crappy so I could've taken a picture... but alas as it drove off... I found myself at an intersection... laughing like a loon. The reality is I do believe that's what I have today. A Catitude. Why isn't that a word that is used more often?

Catitude -  1)an attitude in which all those who mind don't matter and all those matter don't mind.  2) Imma jus gonna be me.. so there. 3) To heck with it 4) An attitude occasionally accompanied by a dirty mouth.

Something about this next couple of weeks is a bit daunting to me. I realize it's not so hard when it's boiled down. One step.. then another step... and Repeat. Yet... still daunted. I think I'm going to need every bit of attitude that I have to survive it... I realize that my week compared to some is very insignificant. Simple REALLY.  I have friends dealing with all kinds of hard situations. Keeping that in mind however, A man I very much admire once said "Honey, just because that man has a broken leg, doesn't mean your splinter doesn't hurt as well". I must agree. My splinter is tough this week. I think it might be gangrene or something... terrible. Real Terrible.  But.. one step, then one more step.. and repeat...with attitude. Or Catitude as the situation calls for.

 So, I've turned the proverbial music up. I''ve rolled my hypothetical windows down. I've got the pedal to the metal people. I'm ready. Me and my Catitude. Join me won't you? It'll be fun.  Let's do this. I'm Jus Sayin.
