Very Forgettable

I may have just embarrassed myself. I asked one of my favorite musicians in the world for an autograph. See, she also happens to be a local musician, which means she does cool little events where you actually have the chance to go up to her afterwards and embarrass yourself like I did tonight. She was very nice about it, but I think both of us would have been better off if I had just written her some fanmail.

I am comforting myself by remembering that I am pretty forgettable on the surface. Which is not to say that I am not interesting or memorable or worthwhile once you get to know me. But lets face it, I blend in to the background, and I like it that way. I have worked hard to make sure that is the case. And this is exactly why, so that when I do things that are a little bit fan-girlish, a little bit embarrassing, a little bit awkward, people forget it was me. So when they tell the story later, I become "just some girl", which also means that if I meet them again I have the chance to make a new first impression.

I like my system.

I hope it works the way I think it does.
