The New York Times’ Modern Love essay on Sunday was about a woman who is bi polar and manically veers from spastically happy to mired in emotional sludge. Rooster says I am being dramatic, but I feel the same way about my contests.
I’m on an up streak now and kicking my heels high. Just learned I’m one of 10 finalists for Nutrisoda (grand prize a trip to NYC with two tickets to the James Beard awards) and Sandra Lee still hasn’t told me no yet. Which is good. But any moment now, like when the finals are over and the true champ lifts her egg beater muscled arm in triumph, I could end up at the bottom of the ocean like so many wild shrimp, and with nary a can of nutrient-giving soda in sight.
