Last Wednesday after a harrowing experience at work involving an aggravated intruder, I spent five late hours at a karaoke bar flirting with a very young hot person and feeling, myself, like a very hot confident person after being scared and helpless all day. Do people really feel like that ALL THE TIME? It was so alien and so wonderful and intoxicating. I forgot all the things I hate about myself and I fucking dominated the room and it was amazing. I felt what is glowing inside me - how can I do it again?

Read this as I emerged from a two-day migraine and now I want to eat everything in sight, put on a red lip, and dance in public. Merci.

Thanks for sharing your glow...and all the rest that you wrangle into these essays each week. My heart and mind are always drawn out of the dark recesses when I read your words.
