Because I Can.

by The CEO on January 14, 2010

Being the people-pleaser that I am (and the hormonal roller coaster such is me this week), I feel bad to have burdened you with that downer-of-a-Writers-Workship post this morning. {Though, I’ll admit, there’s something cathartic about complaining….}

So…..I’m giving myself a re-do!

And I am doing it because I can.

Turns out, my self-given name of CEO of my household isn’t the only Almighty thing about me. My real name {Christina} actually means “anointed one” and “Christ-like.” How’s that for an ego trip?

Though I’ll answer to names like Mom, Hun, Chris, Ma’am, and Titties, most people just call me Chrissy. I don’t know who gave me that nickname, or when, or why. {insert a bubblegum chewing air-head valley girl accent} It’s so, like, “Chrissy.” And while I totally have some bubblegum chewing airhead ways, I’ve never felt the nickname suited me.

Knowing that “Christina” is such a powerful name, I may start making my friends & family refer to me as such. And do you know why?

Because I can.
