STUPID GIRL HERE....
In case you were wondering, the “stupid girl” came from the beginning of a computer journal I used to keep up with and now seem to only glance at now and then to see where I’ve been. What do you suppose is the reason of a journal anyhow? To remind us how bad or good we had it? Or maybe to remind us of how absurdly we felt someone was wonderful and smart, when they turned out to be a very inarticulate, hideous soul. I can look back and find the “rock bottom” of times and the times when I asked the man upstairs for some help. Journals are kind of like dogs, always leaving a mark so you know where it is you’ve been.
Why am I stupid you ask? I suppose I am not the like anymore, maybe more sensible these days. Stupid girl is also the name of an old song by Neil Young which speaks to a girl, in this case a stupid girl, who needs to forget remembering and start learning again. Which at that time in my life, was right on. These days, I am beginning a new chapter of my life and need a new name, or volume should I say – although, I am not writing novels here. Just a tale. You read it here.
