Me circa 1977
This is the public yet personal journal of Miss Ana Sara Rexell aka Bitterfig.
I’m 36 years old. I live in Chicago, IL and work as a cashier at Whole Foods.
I’m originally from rural Upstate New York. I grew up in a strict household that frowned upon smoking, drinking, swearing, and pre-marital sex. As a young woman I broke away, attending college near New York City, experimenting with punk personas and performance art. However during graduate school I developed near fatal anorexia and returned home to live with my parents.
My mother took this as a sign that I wasn’t made for the world, that I would always live at home in the bucolic paradise where she had happily spent her whole life. I was to be her stay-at-home child, her companion, and her perpetual little girl.
I tried; really I did, to do what was expected of me, to make the most of my small town existence. I put out a zine, wrote about the arts for the local paper, I was active in the church, I even had a boyfriend for a while but in the end it wasn’t me. Alas, my mother’s little girl was a bi-sexual pseudo-intellectual with artistic ambitions and so in August of 2003 at the age of 32 I fled my motherland for Chicago.
It hasn’t been easy. The attitudes I was raised with are hard to grow beyond. I’m still struggling with disordered eating and issues of faith that have resulted in me leaving the church.
Writing is the way I make sense of the world and this journal is a part of that.
In it I write about both my daily life living, my family, my past and my struggles with psychological problems as well as the books I read, the movies I see and other things that effect me.
All are welcome to read and comment on this journal. You are also welcome to friend my journal. If you do I will probably friend you back within a few days.
