"She's Nobody"

The title of my memoirs.  The memoirs of the creator of L'amore Intimo™.  "She's Nobody".

On many occasions my face is mistaken for one of a well known starlet.  It used to be a young Whitney Houston, then it was Halle Berry, and the latest - Lisa Bonet.  I am grateful to be mistaken for any one of these beautiful and successful women.  However, when asked if I was Lisa Bonet, I humbly answered no, to which I wasn't believed.  This women insisted that she had  seen me on TV and that I was the now grown up Lisa Bonet.  I guessed this bothered the company in my presence because she blurted out "she's nobody"!

Insult?  Probably not intentional, but this did lead me to think about the time waste when I procrastinate getting a job done.  I can so easily think of 50 million other things that won't take long to do, but of course they always take over my time.  A couple of months back I set a goal to create a panty a day until I had the designs for the pre-launch set.  I convinced myself that I'd been through a lot of crap lately with losing my house and the death of my dad and that crazy census gig, and I should go easy on myself.  But at the end of the day I know everyone goes through their own crap and I'm just procrastinating.  This is where I change for the better, because I never want to be called a nobody ever again.  Maybe it won't be a panty a day but it will be as many as I can manage until I fall out exhausted or have the pre-launch designs exactly the way I want them - perfect.

Yep -- one day look for my story -- SHE'S NOBODY.
