My father and I broke new ground today. Its been a while but it's nice that we did. I've been frustrated because my father has decided men are one way and women are another and thats how it is. Men shouldn't have to change, women should just understand how they are. He didn't always used to be this way, I think the divorce did it. But we've decided the plan and how frustrating it was to achieve!! I'm going to try and get two jobs in Gloucester to pay off the debt from SVU to be able to go on a mission in a year and then be back in time to maybe, possible be married. I think it'll be fine and now dad thinks so too. It was just a matter of making him see things my way. We just have a communication problem. Well, he does say mean things but I say things one way and he doesn't understand and so he gets frustrated thinking I'm just being illogical and girlie and then he tells me I'm not thinking right but I know I am, I'm just not stating it right so that he would understand. So, things are looking up. I might have a calling soon and I've been going to FHE and institute and feeling good.
Todd has reappeared...Grrr. We knew each other when I was in high school and then he joined the navy and he asked me to marry him and I said no so he went crazy. He was a member and did every stupid thing he could to try and hurt me but he was only hurting himself. Long story short, he went AWOL after being accused of rape. So they discharged him from the navy and he moved to newport news. So now he's going to singles. He's always standing behind me or something and he's neighbors with one of my old best friends and he's like "hey come visit Jeremy" and he's really insistent about it and its kind of bothering me. Why would he be so eager for me to visit Jeremy? Grrr. But he's totally aware of Garret. The funny part is, I didn't tell him. My best friend Sarah made sure to tell him in full detail. So he knows, but it freaks me out, none-the-less.
Not much else is happening. Dad keeps telling me to plan my wedding. Not because of Garret or anything, just because my mum's insane and he wants me to decide what I want now. I'm trying not to think about it, actually, so I thought that was kind of funny.
I guess its time for bed.
