mary katherine gallagher — my hero

by Valli

I am eternally Mary Katherine Gallagher, for better or worse.

The movie “Superstar” starring Molly Shannon as MKG is on this morning and I can’t help but notice the similarities between me and Mary Katherine.

While I don’t wear a Catholic school uniform or keep my hands under my armpits when I’m nervous, I do have an incredibly vivid imagination and delusions of grandeur and I wear glasses.

I’ve long thought that perhaps I am an aquired taste and that makes it harder for me to find a guy that’s right for me.

I’m nice, smart and yes, I’m stubborn, but does that mean that I’m undatable?? UGH! And by the way, no it doesn’t.

This brings up another topic. Negativity. I’m only allowing myself to think positively and be surrounded by those that do the same. I will be realistic, but at the same time I’m not going to allow myself to get bogged down in crappy thoughts.

I am worthy, I’m not a bad person. Thank you. :)
