I Want My FU Card Back
Posted by: | CommentsNot sure how one starts this blog, but might as well jump in. So, I am adding a major goal to my life:
Getting my FU card back.
I am not sure where I lost it. It’s not as easy as losing your credit card on a Saturday, where you just look at your transactions online and retrace your steps back to the classy establishment where you left it – have you ever noticed how terrible these places look the next day?
But in retracing my steps, I lost pieces of my FU card over the last several years. In fact, I think I officially lost it when I started dating that bad boyfriend 2009.
Today, my goal is to get it back. What does it mean when you have your FU card? It means you have the ability to say enough is enough at anytime, and if the situation calls for it, you walk out that door, do some donuts in the parking lot, blasting Sister Christian, and your colleagues will watch from the windows, and a few brave ones will run out, jump in your car (Dukes of Hazard style), and you blow out of town for a few days to figure it all out, only to return in new suits, with a newly discovered swagger, and a bad ass business plan. Six months later, you have a business empire that is running the way you want – the right way.
Ok, maybe that is just for the movies. But seriously, power means you have choices, so my goal is to get back to a place where we financially can make our own road. While nothing really in my life requires pulling the FU card right now, we all need to have the confidence that we are in charge of our lives, our future and our happiness. Duh, I know, but somehow, by making various decisions in my life, I gave that card away. I am on my way to getting it back, and maybe, just maybe, you will see me doing donuts in a parking lot near you.
So…here is the question:
What car should I be driving when I pull the card? As a product of the 80s/ 90s, I am stuck in a generation, but here are my top picks? Let me know what you think, and what you do with your FU card!
