Chicks: Straight-laced!

Straight-laced definition: Excessively strict in conduct or morality; puritanical; prudish.

Does that sound like me? I've been told on numerous occasions that I'm straight-laced. That I don't drink, don't smoke, don't do drugs, no tattoos. That I'm just this great big giant ball of no fun.

That bothers me. I know it shouldn't.

It's true I don't smoke [I'm not stupid], I don't have a tattoo [I don't see the point of getting one], and I don't drink to get smashed [I'm not 21 anymore]. I have dabbled in sudafed though admittedly [sorry].

I am what I am. I do have opinions and tastes regarding those things, but I totally believe people can and should do what they want, as long as it doesn't effect me directly. To each his own.

I don't expect people to think like me, I just want them to respect me. If they don't, then fine I guess. But I'm really tired of being pegged as this prude who isn't fun because of those things. I think the real issue is anyone that needs those things in order to have fun or feel accepted has a problem, not me. I'm this outcast because those things aren't important to me for some reason.

I don't broadcast about how I need a drink. I don't have alcohol bottles on display all over my house. I don't have conversations on end on which brand of beer is better than the next. I just don't care. Lately by not doing or saying those things, it's becoming less easy to be in a conversation with someone that's for sure. Try reading Twitter or Facebook status updates without mentioning hangovers or drinks, and you'll be hard pressed to find many.

I can have fun without drinking. I can get by without smoking. I don't care about your tattoo and how I'm becoming less of a normal person without one. I don't live for the weekend to drink. Does that make me a prude? Does that make me straight-laced? Does that make me wrong?

I care about other things right now.
