Day #92: Signs I Might Be Getting Nicer

I've noticed a few things that might indicate I'm getting a little bit nicer than I was ninety-two days ago.

1) I get back to people a lot sooner than I used to, and I've finally realized that people don't necessarily mind hearing 'No' as long as you give them a 'No' sooner rather than later.

2) I found myself really appreciating everybody that came to see "The Miss Firecracker Contest" and "Smizing." For the first time, it wasn't just about me wanting to be seen, it was more about realizing that people took the time and spent the money to come see me.

3) My inner monologue more often than not switches over from "I can't believe they did that!" to "Oh, get the hell over it, Broccoli" a lot sooner.

4) I tell my Mom I love her more. I hugged my brother when he was home for the weekend. I didn't correct my Grandmother when she asked me what the "smizzing" show was about.

5) I've been laughing more. It's fantastic.

Little things, but I'm proud of them.

They're like little trophies on a mantle in my mind.

Hopefully I can rack up a few more before next week.
