For the first time that I can ever remember, the holidays have gone off for my family without a hitch. No one got drunk. No one fought. Everyone got along like a family should. It was a nice change. I dread the holidays every year because of the huge fights that usually erupt, but nothing happened this year. I hope that this is the start of ( Read more... )

These past few weeks have been a roller coaster ride of emotions. I feel like I'm spiralling out of control and there's no one there to stop it. One minute I'm happy, feeling like my life is falling in to place, and the next I'm feeling no better than a piece of dirt at a zoo. I don't have the stability I so desperately need in my life, nor do I ( Read more... )

We welcomed a new member to the Apartment 624 family today. Her name is Reagan and she's a 4 month old german shepherd/hound mix. She's absolutely adorable, very sweet, and is adjusting way better than I could've imagined. We're having some issues with the potty outside thing, but she'll learn. There are a couple pics of her on myspace or you can ( Read more... )

Election Day has come and gone, leaving much despair in the state and the federal government. I don't think people realize what they've done. At the state level, they've created a gridlock. It's very interesting to me that the House went Dem but the Senate retained Republican Majority. Does this have something to do with the difference in ( Read more... )

I'm not sure why I'm the bad guy in all of this. I only ask three things, the kitchen be a decent size, there be somewhat of a yard, and a semi or finished basement. Why does this make me impossible and the bad guy? Why do I always have to compromise and give up what I want for what he thinks is best when I know there is better out there? I don't ( Read more... )

Why is it that I can never have a good day? One that starts off that way always ends badly... So I pretty much just give up. From now on I go to work, go to class, come home and maybe eat dinner, do my homework, and go to bed. Minimal contact is best I think. There's no conflict that way. I thought living with guys would make my life drama free and ( Read more... )

My wisdom teeth are cutting and it's the most painful thing ever, even worse than when I broke my ankle when I was younger. It's this constant knawing and throbbing feeling. I can't stand it. The pain makes me sick. I can't take anything that's really going to help because I have to be able to function daily, and even if I take it at night, I still ( Read more... )

I've successfully made it through three weeks of class alive. However, I'm so stressed already it isn't even funny. I shouldn't be getting stressed for at least another 2-4 weeks. But I know what's coming. This week alone I have 2 papers and an exam, which doesn't count all the reading I have to do on top of things. I really hate school. And to ( Read more... )

A big inconvenience.... yeah, that's pretty much what I feel like lately. Invisible unless something needs to get done.

The first week of classes has come and gone and I'm already stressed to the max. I dropped a class which makes me feel like a wimp, but there's no way I could've handled it. Monday/Wednesday I have class from 8am-11:40am and 4:10pm-5:30pm. Tuesday/Thursday I have work from 8am-11:30am and class from 12:40pm-4:00pm. I've left myself plenty of time ( Read more... )
