And I don't pretend to know what you know, No no
Now please don't pretend to know what's on my mind
But if we already knew everything that everybody knows
We would have, nothing to learn, tonight
And we would have, nothing to show, tonight
Oh
But everybody thinks that everybody knows
About everybody else, nobody knows
Anything, about themselves
Because they're all worried about everybody else
Well, now that THAT is over and done with, let's move on. No sense in wasting anymore time on people that seem to think they are wasting time on you.
So the news of the week.
WE FIXED UP THE PATHFINDER!!!!!!!!
After long discussions, the insurance on the Aspen was just.. well, actually, I won't lie, we just didn't like the Aspen. It was never a car either one of us ever saw ourselves in. So, we decided to do the next best thing. Since everyone knows me with the Pathfinder, we decided to sell the Aspen (who knew people up here in Maine wanted a big SUV so easily???) and we used a good chunk of that money to fix up the Pathfinder. Then the rest we put towards my truck. So we're actually in a lot better shape than what we would've been in. Not to mention, I've been keeping on my car boards... and well, I'm debating getting rid of the GTO. It's totally impractical, and we could sell that for a lot more money... and with that get Shane a good vehicle since he's been driving around the truck. But I think he looks good in it. So we'll see. He's leaving it up to me on what I want to do with it, and since slates have been wiped without any consultation, I guess I should wipe my own.
Also... We've taken care of a lot of paperwork. Rather than ever having to answer questions as to who people were, we won't ever have to. And we're gonna be just fine providing for our family. I'm tired of people thinking I'm a joke, and that I can't provide. Or always trying to force me to be a person that I'm not. I don't like name brand shit. I still have underwear from high school. I like Helmann's and yes, I will buy it. But shoving other shit down my throat has never been comfortable, and I'm tired of grinning and baring it. I think Shane's noticed the change as well. He's been.... He's been exactly the man I thought I married. And I could never thank him enough... so I'll just spend the rest of my life in awe of him. There's a reason I wear that ring proudly, and a reason why I would never be ashamed to try to keep it secret that he is the man I chose to spend the rest of my life with.
So in short, thank you. To all of my true friends, that just seem to GET ME. That've never pushe their thoughts or beliefs on me... and never tried to force me to be someone that I'm not. You guys are the people I can't wait for my kids to know, and even depend on when they get to the age where "parents are so stupid" and even though you guys are the same age... they'll confide in you. Thank you in advance. You're all pretty amazing in your own ways.
