Seriously. I should have known better. I should have. Some people really aren't worth the air or energy.

At my 10th high school reunion, I stayed with my brother in Dallas. My friend came along for the ride. My brother had 3 DVDs, Darktown Strutters, Off the Charts, and another documentary about the Sex Pistols, I don't currently recall the title. The first one we watched was Off the Charts. If any of you remember how in the back of comics they'd ( Read more... )

Just that word, "body," on all of the liners of the articles. Technically, it is a body, but it's more than that. That was my cousin, he had a name, a family, and a life. I'm not big on proper names on public journals, and I've already named him in the past. That's who he was. Even when I witnessed my first autopsies, they weren't just bodies, ( Read more... )

He has been missing for a couple of weeks. They found him floating in a marsh this morning. He had a bad heart, but the thought of someone, whoever was with him, just dumping him into a marsh really gets me. How can someone do that? Panicky or not ( Read more... )

Some things just aren't worth it. I'm going to stop being an idiot as I have been and just cut my losses. My friends who know the story said this person from the start was a "weirdo" "coward "insecure" "stupid," among other much more colourful terms, and I didn't want to believe it. They told me to choose people instead of taking what's ( Read more... )

I had an interesting talk with a friend yesterday where some things came up in conversation and were discussed. Some things were clarified while others still remain a bit of a mystery to me. I'm generally not this confused about matters, however, this is all taking place via online and text. Yes, picking up a phone would make more sense, but ( Read more... )

The other day someone asked how many times are you turned down after offering an invitation before you stop asking. I said it depends on the person and the circumstances. Today, I'm pretty sure I've reached that point. I don't remember why I extended an invitation to my home, it isn't like me to do so, but I had gotten used to the idea. It ( Read more... )

One of my friends from school had a starfish necklace. I always noticed it because I was big into simple pendants at the time, and I always really liked sealife pendants; you couldn't find many at the time that weren't hideous. I asked her where she got it, and she said that her then boyfriend, now husband, got it for her. She didn't remember ( Read more... )

I'm still not sure how I feel about this. I've only had one guest at my house. He let me stay at his place when I was in Germany, so I let him stay here when he was in the US. I like the idea of having someone over to watch movies, but the actual act of having the person here, I don't know how I feel about that. Plus, there isn't a set day, it' ( Read more... )

I felt sad for most of the day today, and I did send out some Easter messages with a 50% return, so not too bad. It's funny because it's the ones who are the atheists that always send messages back in regard to religious holidays. The preachy ones never say a thing about them; they just complain about people all the time. I've always found that ( Read more... )
