finding your inner x-man

so, before i left the tour my roommates and i, and another guy jeff were all working on the discovery of our inner x-man. i recommend this for everyone just because its fun to do. you figure out your name and your power. carissa is randomnessa-she has an insane amount of random knowledge on everything that she brings up at random times for no particular reason. (do you remember the adams family episode where wednesday does the watoosee? carissa does)
jeff is neurotico-he has moments of extreme neurosis and has the inane ability to pull others into it with him so they will be uncomfortable, relieving the pressure on himself. (a handy trick to have when surrounded by talented actor/dancers)
trevor we kept going around on trying to find the right name for (lovable) obsessive-compulsive. (carissa and i joked we could just throw all of our stuff in the bathroom and come back to find it magically transformed in to PERFECT organization.) i suggested compulsor which while admittedly weak was ruthlessly shot down. i later also suggested chrysalis because of trevors quiet nature, that suddenly blossoms onstage. i dont think it took...
i was given the name dialecta because of my weird tendancy to naturally adopt the accent and way of phrasing for wherever we are at (including other countries!) ever seen "fargo?", "oh, yea" :)
i acually think im more like the chrysalis, with my ever-changing life. i have not had more than a year and a half of stability since i was 13. (and i mean BIG overhauls, not just moving across town) the nice thing is im starting to really appreciate my weirdo life enstead of feeling victimized by it. i see that im really a lucky girl, because even though nothing lasts for me i have gotten to experience SOOO much for the length of my life. i have had a lot of love, fun, craziness, bad times, good times-and i experienced them all over the world! i have accepted, this is the way it will be and i will roll with it. enstead of being sad for what i lose, i have learned to just feel the gratitude for what i got from it. the only thing that never changes is my faith in the universe, and my love.
its a rock-thats my inner x-man.
