Last Friday of the Year...

Another year is among us...

"Things are always at their best in the beginning."-Blaise Pascal

So the resolutions may pour, along with the champagne. False promises from idle lips, and a drunken massacre of horny people in masses. I can't wait! Too bad I have to work on the 1st or else; I would be inclined on going out, getting too drunk, and making a damned fool out of myself in public. But this year, we shall keep it inside and before midnight...No watching the ball drop...no trying to fondle my key into my ignition in a drunken stupor. And definitely no drinking this year.

As for ya'll, I hope ya'll get out and have some extravagant experiences! I hope ya'll have a wonderful New Year. I KNOW that 2006 has to be better than this year was. Because if not, I might actually lose my fucking mind.

Take care! Get some designated drivers, and most importantly...Have a great FUCKING time!

My Christmas Story
For those of you who don't know me very well, I used to have a roommate when I first moved to the DC area. I left everything I had because we had planned on living together. So I packed my car up, and drove the 1800 miles to get here with not much besides the clothes in my car and a couple of things I decided to take from what was left of my marriage. One month we lived together! ONE MONTH! She ended up deciding to move to Texas with her "husband" and try to work things out. She left me in a quite a pickle. Homeless, alone, and broke in DC. Not that I am mad at her, but I did place blame on her for a lot of my misfortune in the coming months after she left. I told her that things weren't going to change between her and her hubby, since I had already gone through that in my marriage. Just because you move to a different state doesn't mean that they will change, for the better or for good. So she calls me on Friday. Here's the story.
-Her: "Hey, what's up? How are you doing? How's Gabe?
-Me: "We're doing good. He's huge! Have had a couple problems with money...You know how it goes..."
-Her: "I'm back in Virginia! What are you doing for Christmas? Do you have any plans?"
-Me: "Well, no. I was just going to sit around the house...spend 'quality' time with Gabe...ha ha..."
-Her: "Well, do you want to come to my mom's house and spend Christmas with us? You should see the baby! He's huge! He has six teeth and is crawling already."
-Me: "Wow! I haven't seen him in like 3 months...Why are you back? I thought you were just here in November?"
-Her: "Well, I left him. Yeah."
-Me: "Really? Why? Same old shit?"
-Her: "Yeah."
-Me: "Well, I'll call you on Sunday and you can give me the directions to your momma's house and we can spend Christmas together."
-Her: "Okay, talk to you later!"
-Me: "Alright...bye."
So in this like 5 minute conversation, you see...I went from having no plans at all to actually having something to do. I was sort of excited and a little pissed that she called me.
I was hoping she didn't want to see if I would possibly move in with her after how she just up and left like that. But I'm a good friend and I wanted to make sure she was doing okay. So off we go. Packed the kid up and drove the 50 miles to Burke. And I see her again. She looks awesome. Hair all "did" and looking all adorable! I looked frumpy as always..lol.. But oh well...it happens that way when you're a single mom. She has never met Gabe and is delighted to see how "smart" he is. He's fussing over the baby (he loves babies!), and the dog. There's an akward moment. Just a split second. But it's over. No need to be angry anymore. After all I've been through in the past few months. Moving to Germantown has worked out better for me and Gabe. I was prepared to talk to her, should the question arise. No, I wasn't willing to live in Virginia again. No, I liked living alone and so did Gabe. No, I didn't want to maybe move in together and try again, for sake of Randy and for Gabe. But alas, it was not mentioned. Not once. And I was relieved. Now, her mom is a character. I'll tell ya! She is not a typical mother. But I am learning that most white moms aren't! Maybe it's just a hispanic thing, but moms aren't supposed to be friends...they're parents. No matter how old you are. But this lady...well, she's CRAZY...cool. Though, I think she is quite the oddball. Within minutes of first meeting her, she farted on me...Yes, she did! Hiked up her butt and all...lol.......So her mom is single and met this guy at a gay stipper joint and invited him over. I can't say if he was gay or not even though the impression he gave would tell me, he's definitely a pillow biter. Then, they tell me he was one of the "dancers" at the joint....lol...And he is just this pessimistic, down guy. He has this little Jack Russell terrier who is just a spoiled brat and nipping and barking it's head off at everything. We were trying to talk and have a good time, but there he was sitting in between us, looking uncomfortable and moping. Like it was torture for him to be there. How dare us invite him over to spend Christmas with us?! So he ended up leaving and we end up having a much better time, making fun of him....lol....cruel, maybe? But that's how we are when we are together. They end up giving me all this nice stuff. And I felt bad. Because well, I was too broke to even buy Gabe some nice presents, much less buy someone else anything. So the night continued and we just sat there, full bellies, laughing at the "gay" guy. Even though her mom is convinced he is just bi. SO yeah, that was my Christmas. Without Randy. I miss him very much and can't wait till Wednesday. Hope ya'll had a very good Christmas...and happy holidays!

What my Astrologer thinks.....
Nancy, your Life Path of 6 ...

You have a deep love and concern for your fellow humans and are at your happiest when you feel yourself to be in the service of others. You are a supportive and self-sacrificing and a friend to all. You intuitively know how to cheer or heal others who are in a crisis. You also have a swift, analytical mind, dexterity and a lot more faith and courage than is often demonstrated by the other numbers. For this reason, many of you end up being doctors, nurses, fire-fighters, policeman, politicians, lawyers, crisis line workers, counselors and any occupation that involves empathy, skill or bravery. Your life path is often filled with responsibility, but the difference between you and other people is that you are happy to take it on. You are a sympathetic and kind person and skilled in the arts of diplomacy and leadership. Many of you are born with an innate wisdom about what others need to survive and thrive. You easily earn the devotion and respect of others and are destined to become a pillar of your community. Like most sixes, you probably were some kind of child prodigy in one subject area. You probably seemed to be wise beyond your years and may have accelerated grades or entered university early. Furthering your education is likely to be a theme that is important to you your entire life. This is because your brilliant mind is always looking for ways to enhance the quality of your life. Another mark of the number 6 child is that he or she tends to connect very well with adults and have full, intelligent conversations even at a very young age. You often marry early and the cornerstones of your life are family, religion, philanthropy and compassion. Your relationship with your partner is often destined to be a permanent loving one that survives all obstacles. You may also have an extraordinary talent for dealing with children, teens and the elderly. You have very few flaws, but one of them might be a tendency to meddle in or fix other people's lives. Also your willingness to excel to please high-ups may look like brown nosing to others. As you are often very successful compared to others, you might also experience a lot of jealousy and envy from those who just don't see how good-hearted you really are. As you are so self-sacrificing you are also in danger of working yourself to the point of exhaustion. One of your life path lessons is to remember to care for yourself as much as you care for others. Another one of your life challenges is to make sure that you don't take on more than you can chew as this might force you to break promises that you would rather keep. You are a soft touch, so you are also at the risk of being taking advantage by individuals who might see your kindness as the mark of a fool. However your traditional approach to life along with it's ethics and moral values usually serves you well. Being one of the most domestic numbers, your family and extended family is probably the center of your life. You are very realistic in your approach to money and career and often have the intelligence and foresight to build a small fortune. This financial savvy is good because number six's tend to have large broods or spend many years of their life supporting parents or other relatives.
Nancy, your Expression of 3 ... Your Potential Natural Talents and Abilities

You are at the height of your self-expression when you feel that others are experiencing "being high on life" like you are. One of your personal goals may be to uplift humanity or spread joy or enthusiasm wherever you go. You know how to unite others through the magic of performance, song dance, singing, acting or literature. For this reason, you are fated to entertain others in some way, whether you are in showbiz or not! You are imaginative in every way possible. As you are a great innovator your career choice may be unorthodox in some way. You consider the accumulation of experiences to be your greatest wealth so you may choose a career in which you travel a lot so you can meet as many people and encounter as many different kinds of situations as possible. You love to dare to be grand and this is reflected in your mannerisms and speech. You often speak in full paragraphs and are a captivating storyteller. You often throw your entire body into your self-expression so that it is one with what you are saying. For this reason many of you make incredible actors, opera singers, teachers or performers. You also have a natural dexterity that makes it easy for you to learn and play music. Threes are often blessed with a natural sense of comic timing as well as rhythm. This makes you an excellent dancer and lover. You love philosophy and the old cliches that are true in life so when you feel lost emotionally you rely on wise words to get you through. You rarely take anything that happens to you in life personally, a trait that frustrates your enemies to no end. This ability to let stuff "roll off your back" serves you well in the many complex emotional situations that threes often get into. You relate better to large groups of people then you do one on one. As threes are often no shows in their family lives and rarely have time to pay attention to their lovers they are likely to show their affection by giving lavish gifts. However this is often perceived by others as an attempt to buy others affection or as a lousy substitute for real emotional support. As you adore being in the spotlight you probably dress to impress. Either you dress in the latest trendy fashions or in an eccentric fashion that makes it impossible for others not to notice you. As you are an oddly sentimental creature, you are fond of heirlooms and one of a kind jewelry and clothing that sets you apart from the crowd. One of the greatest gifts you have to offer others is your boundless optimism and enthusiasm for life. Others who meet you rarely forget you as you always make a permanent first impression. Although on the surface you might appear to be a bit shallow to others usually you are motivated by the desire to have others transcend petty emotions and pains in life. Nothing annoys you more than a person that insists on looking down at his shoes when he could be looking up at a big wide sky full of stars. The ultimate achievement of your life expression is to change the consciousness of others so that they aspire to their highest ideals. One way that you do this by continually reminding them through your actions that these ideals can be manifested through kind and wise action on earth.
Nancy, your Soul Urge of 9 ...What You Desire To Be, To Have, and To Do In Your Life

The highest expression of your soul's urge is to connect in a mystical way with others. Although your aspirations are lofty, you are also a humanitarian who is often gifted with a sharp intuition and keen analytical skills. Often you give up opportunities that should be yours, simply to help another. This is because your faith in yourself, god and the future is so strong that you live by your conviction that the universe is always unfolding as it should. Others simply do not possess your spiritual sophistication and may be amused or repelled by what they see as your irrational talk or beliefs. You may be accused of being stupid or foolish simply because you won't take the bait (of a job or money) at the expense of your ethics. Compared to the other numbers you excel at letting go of lovers or opportunities simply because you know you can't take emotions and material goods with you when you die. As you are driven more by compassion than common sense, you are the first to fall on your sword for a worthy cause. You may often be broke because you see money only as a tool of change. You would much rather spend money on art, charity or a trip. In fact, ostentatious displays of wealth anger and disgust you because your ideal is a world where all humans are equal. You might appear very eccentric to others who don't quite understand your fascination with the spiritual world or your insistence on being a seeker of truth. Furthermore nines tend to get carried away when it comes to trying to heal or connect to others. The biggest mistake you could make is to try and be an "agent of karma" by meddling or interfering in other people's affairs. As you are so talented psychically, you often become a liability in business simply because people in authority resent your ability to perceive their secrets. You rarely rise very high on the corporate ladder simply because others see you as a threat to their cloak of political intrigue. You have a soul that must be continually assured and fed with new sources of spiritual information. To stay healthy, your psyche may require that you make special trips to holy or mystical places. You may have to seek out special teaching to help you understand and cultivate your talents so that you are in control, as opposed to terrorized by them. Being able to foresee the future or see through other people is often painful, so some therapy might be required in your life to help you detach from your own sensitivity. One of the sins you are most vulnerable to is spiritual pride. This can bring you situations that cause your faith to be seriously tested or where your pride can take a big fall. Many nines often find themselves subject to a lesson in becoming humble by the cosmos simply because they were too boastful of their talents. Making money off of your psychic talents may also cause you some problems, as part of your path is to heal without the expectation of reward. If you are working professionally as a psychic and are a nine, then remember to tithe at least one tenth of your earnings towards a worthy cause. However the highest calling of your soul urge is to share your intuitive talents for free.
What they said about Randy:
Randy, your Life Path of 5 ...

You are about freedom, independence and the right to follow where your heart and gut-instincts lead you in life. You are an inquisitive soul with many questions that can only be answered through travel, exploration and experiencing a variety of life situations. For this reason you are likely to relocate to various cities or countries during your life and also entertain a number of life partners as opposed to just one soul mate.You are best suited to freelance work or being your own boss as stuffy offices and rigid routines are deadly to your imagination and soul. You are a great lover of human nature as well as one of it's greatest observers, which is why you would make a good archaeologist, historian, writer, journalist, reporter or artist. You are great at dealing with people and also do well in any "front line" occupation. For instance many crisis workers, emergency care workers and leaders of self- groups are fives. You need a job that allows you to meet a lot of people as well as brings you a variety of interesting experiences. You also have quite a spiritual bent to your personality that may send you on many personal vision quests. It is not unusual for a 5 to also belong to many different religions during his or her life or suddenly in mid-life to drop everything in pursuit of a life-style that is the complete opposite of the former one. One of your challenges is learning how to not waste time. Your perception of time is somewhat distorted which is why you are often late to meetings or sometimes unable to meet deadlines. Novelties and new ideas also easily distract you so sometimes it is difficult for you to choose a career or lifestyle and stick with it. As a result, others may also find you indecisive and frustrating to deal with. Another challenge that you face on your life path is being overly irresponsible. Many 5's have a habit of taking off when the going gets rough. You tend be quite casual about your relationships and have a great deal of trouble managing any type of emotional crisis. You may even experience panic at the idea of commitment, as you don't like the idea of being responsible to another person. For this reason, many of you have a number of serial relationships rather than just one life long love. If you are unable to physically escape circumstances that you can't emotionally handle or don't like, you are also prone to escaping through substance abuse. This is part of the unpleasant self-indulgent trait that is part of many number 5 personalities. Finding one focus and sticking with it is definitely your biggest life challenge. Most 5's are multitalented but they never stay in one place long enough for one of their projects to grow and blossom. Seeing things through to completion is the best way to make sure that you don't suffer poverty or bitterness in your later years. One of your greatest talents is the ability to communicate, either verbally or through the written word. Your expansive observations of life plus your ability to see all points of view makes you an excellent teacher. Most 5's end up teaching at one point in their life so others can benefit from the rich tapestry of their life experience. You are also a daring spirit that has a love of adventure. You are usually very physically fit and enjoy good health for your entire life if you stay away from overindulging in drink and food.

Randy, your Soul Urge of 8 ...What You Desire To Be, To Have, and To Do In Your Life

You are one of the most spiritual complex and misunderstood numbers. Your ability to create wealth often fills your life with difficult relationships. Others may try to take advantage of you or try to make you feel guilty for your success. You are probably used to being described as greedy or shallow but usually the opposite is true. Often your devotion to keeping the free exchange of money flowing costs you dearly personally either through overwork or thanklessness from others. In essence your number is about exchange - the exchange of things for profit. Although you are materially oriented you are not spiritually bereft. In fact, one of your most sophisticated spiritual qualities is your belief that all should wealthy and that all should benefit from your endeavors. The highest expression of your soul urge number is when you are at the top of the food chain and dispensing goodies down to those who work for you or love you. You are very trustworthy individual who is entrusted often with the task of caring completely for other people's livelihoods. This is a huge responsibility and many simply don't understand the challenge. You are blessed with the tools that come in hand with being a great leader - foresight, analytical abilities and a great understanding of human nature. Your ability to sell ice to an Eskimo comes from a truly grounded and practical understanding of the wants and needs of humans. You are very astute when it comes to choosing partners and employees. You always assign people to roles that best suit their talents and resources and so that all benefit from your grand plans. Usually it is an eight that facilitates the building of a church, day care center or opera house. Art and the theater truly do appeal to your brilliant mind. Many of you are excellent when it comes to choosing talent and putting it to work in your organization. You may also privately support an artist that you believe is adding beauty, meaning and order to the world. Another soul energy that drives you is your need to demonstrate the circulation of love and prosperity in your life. If you are not making money, it seems to you like you are not being favored by the Gods or that you are on the wrong path. Like feng shui masters, you see the circulation of wealth in your life as evidence that love is blossoming in your life as well. This is because you are as equally concerned with attaining spiritual riches as you are material riches. Many of you are natural born feng shui masters and have innate understanding of the use of space. For you beauty is a matter of form following function, so if it is useful it is beautiful to you. This is why many eights end up funding the design of grand buildings or malls or creating large corporations or organizations. In Biblical terms, you are the one who knows how to divide up a single fish to feed thousands. You are also an extraordinarily kind person and one of your challenges may be about deciding who is a good risk to lend money to or not. For this reason, you can always expect some losses in your life due to the lending of money. If you are stolen from, your highest spiritual calling is to forgive the debt and realize that others simply don't have the same natural knack for creating wealth that you do.

Blogity blog blog blog...
Some stuff you don't know about me:

You Have a Phlegmatic Temperament
Mild mannered and laid back, you take life at a slow pace.You are very consistent - both in emotions and actions.You tend to absorb set backs easily. You are cool and collected.
It is difficult to offend you. You can remain composed and unemotional.You are a great friend and lover. You don't demand much of others.While you are quiet, you have a subtle wit that your friends know well.
At your worst, you are lazy and unwilling to work at anything.You often get stuck in a rut, without aspirations or dreams.You can get too dependent on others, setting yourself up for abandonment.

Suppose it has some truth to it....


The Keys to Your Heart
You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.
In love, you feel the most alive when your partner is patient and never willing to give up on you.
You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change.
You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please.
Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything... no secrets.
Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.
You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred.
In this moment, you think of love as something you don't need. You just feel like flirting around and playing right now.

Ha ha, love is always wanted and needed here...

Your Hair Should Be Orange
Expressive, deep, and one of a kind.You pull off "weird" well - hardly anyone notices.


Orange, who'd a thunk it?

How You Are In Love
You fall in love quickly and easily. And very often.
You give and take equally in relationships.
You tend to get very attached when you're with someone. You want to see your love all the time.
You love your partner unconditionally and don't try to make them change.
You stay in love for a long time, even if you aren't loved back. When you fall, you fall hard.


Eh, yeah...I think that is true...

Your Birth Month is May
Unique and creative, you seek your own path in life.You love change and are able to adapt to any situation.
Your soul reflects: Sweetness, joy, and a complete life.
Your gemstone: Emerald
Your flower: Lily of the Valley
Your colors: Yellow, red, and green


Not so true about change, but whatever...

You are Agnostic
You're not sure if God exists, and you don't care.For you, there's no true way to figure out the divine.You rather focus on what you can control - your own life.And you tend to resent when others "sell" religion to you.


Guess I have another thing in common with you, Randy....Who knew?

You Are 40% Weird
Normal enough to know that you're weird...But too damn weird to do anything about it!


I think I'm a little weirder than just 40 %....


Your Personality Is
Guardian (SJ)

You are sensible, down to earth, and goal oriented.Bottom line, you are good at playing by the rules.
You tend to be dominant - and you are a natural leader.You are interested in rules and order. Morals are important to you.
A hard worker, you give your all at whatever you do.You're very serious, and people often tell you to lighten up.
In love, you tend to take things carefully and slowly.
At work, you are suited to almost any career - but you excel in leadership positions.
With others, you tend to be polite and formal.
As far as looks go, you are traditionally attractive. You take good care of yourself.
On weekends, you tend to like to do organized activities. In fact, you often organize them!


Ha ha, so true about the weekend thing....and I have never considered myself a leader...but I am a very dominant personality....lol......

Slow and Steady
Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy.
They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder.
It'd really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment.
They expect you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then usually decide against it.


Ya'll think I'm BORING!!!

What Your Sleeping Position Says
You are secretly sensitive, but you often put up a front.Shy and private, you yearn for security.You take relationships slowly. You need lots of reassurances before you can trust.


All that from a sleeping position....


Your Personality Profile
You are dreamy, peaceful, and young at heart.Optimistic and caring, you tend to see the best in people.You tend to be always smiling - and making others smile.
You are shy and intelligent... and a very hard worker.You're also funny, but many people don't see your funny side.Your subtle dry humor leaves your close friends in stitches.


If only it were true...

Your Blogging Type is Unique and Avant Garde
You're a bit ... unusual. And so is your blog.You're impulsive, and you'll often post the first thing that pops in your head.Completely uncensored, you blog tends to shock... even though that's not your intent.You tend to change your blog often, experimenting with new designs and content.


I suppose there's some truth to this...

Your Seduction Style: Au Natural
You rank up there with your seduction skills, though you might not know it.That's because you're a natural at seduction. You don't realize your power!The root of your natural seduction power: your innocence and optimism.
You're the type of person who happily plays around and creates a unique little world.Little do you know that your personal paradise is so appealing that it sucks people in.You find joy in everything - so is it any surprise that people find joy in you?
You bring back the inner child in everyone you meet with your sincere and spontaneous ways.Your childlike (but not childish) behavior also inspires others to care for you.As a result, those who you befriend and date tend to be incredibly loyal to you.


Is this true, Randy?

At a loss for words...
Seriously. I am. For the first time in awhile. Seems like this shouldn't last long. Or at least I hope it doesn't. Driving alone can make you think and contemplate about a lot of things. So yeah. I shall sort all my thoughts. And I will be back shortly.

It's my disease....I can't help it....
If anger were a disease, I think I would seriously suffer from it. I guess in a way it is a disease. It gives me headaches, makes my heart ache, and makes me loose my appetite. I am a good worker, or else I wouldn't have all the good praise and awards that I have thus far. I know this. People tell me that all the time. But I hate when people keep pushing my buttons, when I have told them on more than one occassion to please stop before I stop. I suffer from keeping my emotions in check and being polite. I don't show my anger to people. I am passive-aggressive....Until I can't take anymore and I completely loose it all. It's hard writing this. Because I am about to cry. My mental health is deteriorating. I know this. I have seeked out the help for it but as of late that went to the wayside. My psycologist had a lot to say about my childhood and my behavior. It hurt to hear, and I have been trying to deal with it in my own way. But it's hard. Have you ever felt like you were drowning alone, even in a sea of other people? That's the best way I can describe how I feel. I don't know what it is that triggers it off here at work, maybe it's everything. Everything has changed and I don't know if it is for the better. But I feel very....surpressed...very cornerned. Like I will lash out at the next thing. I displace my anger and my feelings onto others....The results of this is a messy word throw-up that I end up regretting. All of this is incapacitating and if is all consuming me. The anger is infecting everything. Why am I so angry? What is making me so angry? EVERYTHING. That's just it. I don't know why. I am mad at myself mostly. For being a pushover. For not standing up for myself. For not defending myself. For not believing in myself. I have failed myself somewhow and I am no longer upset about it, just angry. I have forgotten how to love myself like I used to. I don't know why. I feel very alone in my anger, and the most excruciating part of all this is that I want to be alone in it. I want to revel in it. I want to be angry. I feel like I have the right to. I have beem far too kind for far too long. No more of this nice me. I am going to get everyone back for all the frustrations and tears I have cried. EVERYONE. I promise. Okay maybe not. I wouldn't be able to look at myself in the mirror everyday, knowing that I had turned into a bitch. So what does one do when the anger is spreading in their hearts, kicking out the love that once was there? Can anger replace love?

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow....
With Christmas and the other winter holidays fast approaching, I have contemplated quite a few things. I have seen "snow" or what we call snow in Texas. But I have never had snow be like how it is here on the East coast. It's scary. We are supposed to get 4 inches today...Four inches of snow....WTF? That's more snow that I have seen in my life...all at one time. And I have to drive home in it! Oh well, I suppose with all the wonderful drivers here, I shall expect maybe about 12 accidents on the way home. But yeah, as the merry season awaits us, I have sat here and thought of all I have gone through in this year. What a miserable year it has been, and I can't wait to start off 2006. I hope it is a better year for me, generally speaking. I shall sit here patiently waiting for all this to be over. I assume next year I will finally be able to accomplish more than I have in this past year. I know I haven't been good this year, so Santa...I honestly don't expect much from you. I shall stive to be a better little girl next year so I wont get coal lumps in my stocking again. I think I will also try to be a more patient, loving parent. It's hard at this time, because parenting can be so trying. Single parenting is down-right frustrating, and seeing as to which I am parenting a ruthless 2 year old, well I think I have my work cut out for me. My son gets bigger everyday, I see everything developing so quickly. He is growing like a weed, just shooting up and filling out. I see his mind sharpening, he is like a little sponge absorbing it all. I don't think he understand the whole divorce thing, because he still asks for his father here and there. Speaking of which, I thought we could be "friends" all enlightened and stuff, but I can't friends with an asshole. Yeah, he finds way to screw me over everyday. Isn't it enough that I have let him have everything, gave him child support, plus paid for all the divorce stuff, moved out and tried to make his life easier? No, he has to find ways to fuck with me. But I guess that's life....and that's wonderful, right? NO...I am trying to do the right thing. And it just bugs me. He already got a new house, new car...and is doing just fine. While I am here in my crappy apartment, in this shitty place, away from my family. Trying to be a single mother in this world full of inconsiderate, judgemental people. And then I wonder, does he do a whole sob story to get the ladies? I wonder. Does he tell them that I was a bitch, that I cheated on him, that he was absolutely perfect? Well, sorry ladies NOT all true. Yes, I was a bitch, but only towards the end. Yes, I cheated on him, but again only towards the end. And no he was not perfect. He would never help, would leave me with a newborn for days at a time so he could "party", would have high expectations of me, and expect certain sexual favors....So no he wasn't perfect. He wasn't sweet, kind, loving. No...he wasn't. And neither was I towards the end. But you know what, I may not be wealthy or have everything that I may necessarily want or crave. But I have a wonderful boyfriend and an even more wonderful son. And their love alone is enough to fill up my bank account....maybe not in money....but in love. So I am actually a lot wealthier than most. And for that I am thankful. No this is not a ex-husband bashing session, just want to remind myself of all the wonderful things that I have. I am a lucky woman. Yes, I am.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

"Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each."
It is looking like Christmas, except for my house. I love this holiday, not my absolute favorite, but I love it anyway. I don't have a tree, or lights, or bells...or stockings or anything to really remind me of Christmas, yet all around it is prevalent. I think this year, I shall boycott Christmas. I have never been a person to do things half assed, and since I can't go all out this year, why even do it? I hate the fact that I am 1600 miles away from where I want to be. Away from my family for the first time, ever. And I don't know too many people here, so I don't just want to crash in on someone else's yuletide celebrations. And I have to work, so it sucks. I just wish I could go home. See my family. See their faces light up as they open their gifts. That's the best part right there. Seeing them and their open, honest faces. I will miss that. It will be a lonely Christmas in my dad's house. My brother and I are both on opposite coasts. Randy will be in Ohio. Walker will be in Texas. It sucks! Oh well, so here it is I am officially boycotting Christmas. It's not happening this year. Send out the memo to everyone, okay? Thank you, and good day!
