I'm the greatest actress!

So, I am one of those people who attempts over & over to live a "normal" life... and can't quite make it stick.   What is normal you ask?  A steady job that I don't end up hating and quitting.  How about a steady career?  Oh, and how about a steady relationship?  ARG! 

I feel like a Broadway show on the inside all the time...  Operating on the outside like someone who looks like everyone else....but totally is not.  I am that person you meet that is actually "acting" in order to appear "politically correct" "corporate" "normal" "nice" "sweet" "tough" "in-control" "confident".  I am one of the greatest actresses you will ever meet!

In actuality, I am totally not normal!!!  I'm also not that nice or sweet!  Not on the inside of my head anyway!  I often wonder how people can be "so sweet" all of the time!  Really??   Are they in the same world that I am in?  They definitely were not raised in the home I was raised in...

I'm also not very tough or confident - even at this age when you should have developed a thick skin and a tremendous confidence level by now.  The truth is, I was born a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) and find this to be filled with pros & cons.  The Pros are that it is a fabulous quality to have for a comedienne!  I can laugh a lot and feel joy when I make others laugh.  It makes me highly empathetic. 

Which is a quality greatly needed for a comedienne.
