Gal from everywhere has landed in Florida. This is my random diary, open for you, darling, talking about culture shock, money gigs, politics, pop, and simply . . . BEING HERE. XOXOXO

Independence Day 2015 - a fashionable, fabulous flag . . .
Dear You!
Explosively yours on this holiday, I contemplate the fashionable and fabulous American flag. Just a symbol, yes, I know, but considering the recent murders in a South Carolina church (and a shooter who I can confidently label as racist-stupid) and the related actions to tank the NOT fashionable or fabulous Confederate flag, I just had to create a list. Five reasons why our flag is fashionable and fabulous:
1. The stars cleverly represent our twinkliness (I know that is not a proper word, but indulge me), our shine-on optimism that refuses to buy the dire bullshit of Rush Limbaugh.
2. The (straight line) stripes represent the wisdom of that old factoid "the shortest distance between two points is a straight line". And that, my friends, is our version of getting radically liberating things done quickly . . . sometimes, at least.
3. The passionate red is . . . passionate.
4. The serious blue is . . . serious.
5. And finally, the entire symbol itself reminds us that only here can a little boy like Donald Trump grow up to run for President!
Today, the warm, dreamy Gulf of Mexico, is a joy, a blessing, and a seriously passionate reminder to me that it is really, really GOOD to be here. Here, saluting that fashionable, fabulous flag.
Happy Birthday to us :)
XO,
Citizen Joyce
