Okay,
now where was I? Oh yeah, so I'm getting off the airplane there
in LAX and I'm feeling scared and insecure and I've sent him my picture
so he'll recognize me when I get off the plane but I've got the total
Humpa Lumpa fat lady waddling in front of me and I'm freaking out
with nervousness.
Her bratty little snot noses are screaming their heads off
and somebody who looks like Kareem Abdul Jabar is breathing down my
neck because Humpa Lumpa can't make her fat ass move any faster and
I realize I'm totally freaking out.
So I just step over
to the wall of the hallway and let everyone go by me. Mr. Rockstar
thought that was the coolest thing in the world, seeing me walk out
through that door totally alone and unrushed by the crowd but I didn't
do it to look cool. I did it because I was freaking out and
I needed to take a second to relax before I'd be meeting my hero (yeah,
right) Mr. Rockstar.
So every one passes
by me and, like I said, I walk through that door all by myself and
in the throng of people hugging people Mr. Rockstar walks up to me
with a Cardinals baseball cap and a fake beard and says, "Hey,
I was afraid you had changed your mind."
This time I tried
to be cool and I said, "I can't stand crowds."
And he said, "See,
there's something else we have in common."
And, you know what?
Since I'm putting this up here, I'm going to be totally honest about
everything. My therapist says the only way to heal after the
kind of abuse he put me through is to be completely honest and so
that's what I'm gonna be: completely honest.
