Clearly I'm A Big Deal

I saw this the other day.... and well... I laughed way harder than I probably should have. But then I started thinking about it. Seven days. The entire world. Mountains. Oceans. Trees. Animals. Sunsets. The Grand Canyon. All of it?  Seven days? 

Meanwhile, it took nine months to put together this masterpiece known as me? Honestly, that tracks. Have you met me?

Apparently creating a planet is one thing. Creating someone who loses her glasses while wearing them, walks into a room and forgets why she’s there, and spends twenty minutes looking for her phone while talking on it… that takes time. A lot of time. Quality craftsmanship cannot be rushed. Maybe the extra two months were spent adding sarcasm. Lord knows I have that in abundance ...  Or stubbornness. Or the ability to remember something embarrassing I said in 1987 but not what I had for lunch yesterday. It could have been the sense of humor that took a little more time. Lord knows that received extra testing. 

The more I thought about it, the more it made perfect sense. I’m not saying I’m more complicated than the entire universe… But the math is right there. 😏

So yes. The world may have only taken seven days. But I took nine months. Clearly, I’m kind of a big deal.
