The Last Black Unicorn

(Ann) #1

Rumpelstiltskin may not be a great person, but he’s not a
bad person. He’s all right, he doesn’t deserve that sort of
treatment. And it’s unprofessional, and I’m not going to be
like that.
But seriously, that’s the kind of stuĉ that’s been going on.
A lot of people that told me I couldn’t make it, or tried to
take advantage of me, now they are trying to mgure out a
diĉerent way to take advantage or be on my team in some
kind of way.
But that’s not going to happen. I’m a survivor, and all this
struggle I went through—while it sucked at the time—is
really helping me now. It has helped me get to where I am,
and it will help me continue to improve and do better.
It didn’t always feel like it at times, but I truly believe I
am blessed.


We Not Done


Growing up, I just wanted to feel wanted.
I often think about having kids. Since I am single as fuck
and getting older, I’m thinking I will adopt a kid. Maybe an
eight-year-old or a nine-year-old, something like that.
I was in that spot. When you’re like ten and a foster kid,
nobody wants you around, because they think you’re done.
There’s no way you’re going to come out from that situation
undamaged.
I remember when I was in school, the social worker was
like, “Her comprehension is not good.”
