All Choked Up

Although I oftentimes would like to think I'm 100% unaffected by the keeping up with the Joneses affliction, truth be told---I'm not!  Meaning:  I sometimes fall victim to feeling less than when I'm in the presence of people who "appear" to me to be...well...more than.  Yes, I know it's a silly feeling because I have no idea what the other person goes through to be the person he/she presents him/herself to be.  None.  Luckily for me, though, my self-esteem is at such a level that I can readily choke the daylights out of those kinds of insecurities and quickly get back to bein' my PHENOMENAL self!  Haaaa!
