Some people call me strong-willed and stubborn. My Mama calls me spirited.
I think of myself as the manifestation of perfection. If I were an animal, I would be a t-rex with a magical unicorn horn (and longer arms, of course), or maybe a giant eagle with the ability to manipulate space and time. Yes, that's it! I can easily manipulate space and time now, all I need is a pair of wings.
Sorry. Back to the topic at hand.
Perhaps the best word for this stage of my life is tantalizing. To tantilize means to present someone with something that is exciting or desirable, but not letting them have it. I practice this on a daily basis. I show my mom how cute and adorable I can be, then when she tries to hug or kiss me, I break out into a mini-tantrum - squealing and failing my arms about. Kisses are NOT FREE! I give her a glimpse of all that is sweet and good within me, then I snatch it away!
I'm not doing this to be mean. I'm doing it to help my parents. You see, sometimes people take things for granted, like sweet kisses from a toddler. By allowing such luxuries on a limited basis, it helps people to appreciate them more. For you business folks, it's all about supply and demand. If the supply is limited, my kisses will be in demand and they will make Mama feel extra special when she gets one.
See! I'm doing her a favor.
Blog post over.
