Why do you search for the living among the dead?
This was part of the Gospel reading at church on Sunday, and I've been thinking about it a lot. It's also similar to something that Mama Killheffer said to me on Saturday, as we were talking about life in general, about M., and about my fear of being close to people, of forming lasting relationships, and of love. I told her about my dream, the ( Read more... ) -
Suddenly I see.
After looking at today's date, and remembering someone's birthday this weekend, I suddenly understand why I'm freaking out about everything, and why my brain won't shut the hell up.
My sister's anniversary is on Sunday.
I have a lot of mixed feelings about this, since it'll be six years now. I feel like the farther removed I get from her, the more I ( Read more... ) -
Sigh.
Tell me something: if I'm not doing anything wrong by talking to someone who contacted me first, why do I get the feeling I'm the one who's going to look like the asshole in a friendship that probably shouldn't be?
The friend understood last night that it just wasn't the best idea in the world for me to go to the party. Maybe he'll stop by the ( Read more... ) -
Fun at the DMV, and other bits as well.
I have finally achieved ID! Well, sort of. I lost my passport a few weeks ago, the only form of proper ID I had. So, today, after my interview, I headed to the DMV down on Greenwich Street and figured I'd try to get my learner's permit. After seeing the line, I decided that I'd just get a non-driver's and take it from there. Half an hour on ( Read more... ) -
An interesting day.
My day started with a strange email and a random phone call, and it's ended with a strange email and a random phone conversation. The phone rang early, while I was still in bed, so I waited till it went to voicemail. It turned out to be another staffing agency that's been sitting on my resume since November, that has an executive assistant ( Read more... ) -
Making my heart feel better
Aunt G. is awful, and I was up late because I was so upset about what happened last night. This morning, only a few hours after I'd actually managed to get to sleep, my phone rang. I didn't want to get out of bed, but I was curious to see who'd called me, so I went to check my caller ID and see who'd called, and once I saw the number, I knew that ( Read more... ) -
In a nutshell.
Felice Family Christmas(tm) would have been better if not for the chaos. Now, there's normally some drama created by Aunt G., but it's usually in my direction and no one notices. This year, because the dates had been moved around so much, her daughters didn't come. We were all disapointed, but sometimes these things happen. During our ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
I just made cookies for Felice Family Christmas(tm). The ones with the red and green M&Ms are still in the oven, but the chocolate chip ones are on a plate, waiting to be wrapped up. They're just Pillsbury, not home-made, but the Felice family doesn't care. At least, they'll say they don't care and then they'll talk about me for a month after; ( Read more... ) -
And now I can't even have a cup of frigging tea!!
I commuted into the city today for a temp job. I didn't want to go, I wanted to stay in bed, but duty prevails, and I could use the money, so I tried to wait for the bus*. About an hour later, I trudged back home to try and call out, but ended up going to wait for the bus again. I got lucky this morning, and was able to catch a taxi. Coming ( Read more... )
