Maybe you should come back to LJ and try to keep it a secret. I think having a place to put your thoughts down is really important. Especially when life is so stressful.
I've read that becoming a new mother can be a very isolating experience. Once all the excitement, ooh's and ahh's die down, you have this little creature who you love, but is totally overwhelming. My old professor said that he watched his newborn son for a summer, and would consider it a good day if he could watch an hour of uninterrupted TV. He joked that if people knew what infants were really like, the human race would die out. lol.
The crying and chaos will get better with time though. I wish you lived closer to Boston! Then we could chillax!
Keep trudging though, Allison! Things will get better! <3

I need you. Life has been kind of weird for me the past month or so, I've been needing as much alone time as possible and what I got was very little privacy or space and it's not like I don't want to see you or anything like that. Um... another hard thing is sort of getting over the whole... idk, you being... an adult? You have an adult life now. You've got a controlling husband and an infant child and I have to deal with one or the other or both if I want to see you. I can't just steal you away and save you and have you sleep over and watch movies and talk any more. It kind of sucks. At some point I'll grow up and figure out some way to make everyone in this situation happy but at the moment I'm really not sure how. We can't see one another without someone's significant other present and Nathan and Fred aren't what you'd call pals so connecting at all when we're together is like getting teeth pulled for both of us I imagine. I don't know how accurate this is, but every time I hang out with you, Fred always seems to be jealous or
