Lucky Soxx

How do you outline a story without painting the full picture of the main Character.

The name is Lucky. Lucky Soxx. I was born to a young Mother who married my Bermuda-Native Father to bypass having an "illegitamte child,  and spent my childhood years in a small seaside town outside of Boston.  My parents split when I was a toddler, and my Father remarried to my Evil Stepmother and proceeded to grace me with a sister and two brothers. 

Most of my life it was just Mom and me, and to be quite honest I was a-o-k with it. Then she fell in love with a demon spawn and we moved to ala-freakin-bama, where I finished out my junior and senior high school years. . . It wasn't all bad. I wish I could elaborate more on that but to be quite honest that part of my life was a blur that I choose not to remember much of....with the exception of Feb 2nd, 1998. That would be the night I crossed into womanhood, and no better place to do it than the locker room at LCHS, because if you're gonna get classy with it...go all out, Right? No holding back here.

I went to college. I joined a sorority. I fell in like with all the wrong boys. I did what every normal girl did, I fucked up. I then moved to a big Southern city to start fresh. I started my career, fell in love with the right one, and then the "never should have", and the rest is history.

For the last 10 years I've lived in this shithole of a city, constantly looking for a way out. I used to say it was my "never should have" that kept me here, then I blamed it on my career, then when I decided my career sucked the big one, I decided to blame it on the amazing friends that I have here...and that part is true. The best friends a girl could ask for, in the best part of this crapshoot there is that you can live, and of course then there was Chance....which I am beginning to think should be part of the 30 day cleanse, eh, but that's a story for a different day.

What do I want to do? I want to go home, back to the East Coast. Will I ever get there? Only God knows...but I will tell ya one thing...I got a compass pointing North.
