One dark chocolate Klondike bar consumed. RESULT!

Ummm...now what? Spoke to 3 friends of mine from back home today. All 3 are semi-obsessed with the idea that I should move back. I know their tricks. People say how much they miss having you around & then when they have access to you they ignore you or suddenly can't find time to hang out. :p

I don't really want to move back to NY,but it is better than here. I have to call this dude back about buying my washer & dryer in a little while. It's very tempting that if this guy buys them that I just don't skip town with the $$$. I hate debt.
My friend's sister is in Cancun for a week,but it was suggested that I move in with her & her husband & cook & clean for them & watch their kid when she gets back.
Isn't Virginia for lovers? I don't even know what made me think of that.
I might need another Klondike bar.
I might just need to shut up.

Need to make writing a priority. Whether I actually get any paying jobs or not. It just feels right.

Ugh....sorry to MissCris,,,and to others...I am all stooooooooooooooopid & junk. I really should like leave CC & stop posting all together. LOL...or wait...which came first..the chicken or the egg? Either way....I should stop.

Jim, you crazy man! You made me log in just to tell you to stop saying nonsense like that! Do you realize how many of us missed you when you left the first time? You're a great encourager and darn funny as well! Seriously, why did you apologize for saying that to Cristen? After re-reading it the only thing I can think of is that I suppose saying that someone is perfect (or "perfection in His eyes") would make some people think that they're fine and don't need to strive to please the Lord more and follow Him more closely, but I don't think that's what you meant at all, and I doubt that how. Anyway, usually your posts make me feel happy and I don't want you to think that you need to leave. Wait a minute, suppose you just read the post you made for Cristen and pretend it's meant for you :)?

Thinking about going to church service tonight, feeling full of dread and anxiety when I think about it. I enjoy the church, but there will be people there that I have not spoken to in over a year. I feel shame for letting the communication drop. My old psych prof goes there and I know she is concerned that I stopped going to university. I guess what I am afraid of the most is small talk with people of my past- feels like I have to confront my past and that means I feel shame. Shame for my actions. That I've let people down. That I must account for my actions. And I'll be left without anything to say.

Maybe they will just be happy to see you and not grill you with questions. :)

But...what if I just...left...I dunno....for like a few hours,and then came back? (kidding)

Yes,you are all kinds of crazy...but in the best ways possible.

...and FYI..if you are going to keep an eye on me,I strongly suggest you purchase some eye drops. I wouldn't want you to damage your rods & cones. :)

I was scrolling through my facebook friends a little while ago, and I came across my biological father's name. It was really strange, seeing his name there...for some reason, when he died, I had sort of assumed that that was it; the end, no more reminders, left with only memories.

Dead people don't have facebook pages.

But he does.

It's not like anyone would be hacking his account to delete the thing. I don't know why it's bothering me so much.

There was a day a few weeks back that I walked into Walmart, saw a man from the back who had the same build as my dad, dressed the same, even had the same hat I remember my dad wearing. It was surreal; I kind of panicked, was thinking "Do I go say hi to him? He's my dad, that would make sense."
...it took me a minute to realize, No Cristen, that's someone else. Get a grip!

I don't even know why I'm saying this.

It's stinkin' hard to lose a parent. Doesn't even have to be one that you were ultra-close to.

I think that would have freaked me out too!

Maybe yer' still sort of grieving,and if you are...not only is it normal,but expected.

I wasn't real close to my biological Dad,but I was pretty bummed when I found out he died.
..and of course I still deal with the loss of my Mom.

All of what you've gone through with him is like really recent stuff,and talking about it in any way,even like yer' post,I think is a good thing.

Spoke to a guy & his girlfriend tonight about buying my washer & dryer...looks like they might be coming by on Tuesday for it. He mentioned something about wanting to drain it,'cause they have a long drive back & it's gonna be really cold.

I said: "Oh is it supposed to be really cold on Tuesday?" He was like: "ummm yeah,don't you watch the weather?" We both laughed. Deep down I wanted to say: "Why should I watch the weather,when all the weathermen do is guess half the time & are wrong." I behaved myself. I don't wanna screw up the possibility of $600 that I so desperately need.

I have shared all this with you,simply so that I can post this neato pic of this weeks weather forecast...so that you can all see how cold,and shivering I will be every day...alone...and without mittens or hot chocolate...or loved ones to snuggle with me.

hahahahahaha *breaks out violin...realizes his hands are too cold to play,sheds an icy tear.* Selah.

I lived in upstate NY for a huge chunk of my life Utica / Rome. Not like cool NYC. All these people I work with here in Maine detest me when they find out I am a "New Yorker". Apparently if you live in New England,you are born with papers that you must sign when yer' like a fetus,proclaiming your hatred for all things New York State. lol

I try to reassure them that not everyone from NY is evil or mean. Then I let them know that I was born in San Fran. Then the gay jokes. Yep. Gotta love closed minded people with their stereotypes.

So ummm..yeah...it's gonna be cold this week. I think I'll live though. Maybe. :p

upstate is nice, i it know fairly well.--it's pretty

for a bit, i had a bf going to school in ithaca whle i lived in harrison, (ny) and then in the park slope area of brooklyn (for a total of almost 4 years). i miss it from time to time. i've never understood the whole "ny'ers are cranky"... they've obviously not spent time in LA.

p.s. i was born in eureka, ca!

Ahhh ok..yep I know right where you are talking about too. Oh are they cranky in L.A.?

Another native of the West Coast. I suppose we could ^5 or something...or ummm..maybe not. That's more something to be savored at a sports bar,or yeah...someplace like that. (hate's sports bars btw)
