Love is a gun, love is a knife. She's a killer.

It's been ages since I've written in here. SO much has changed. But I'm good. Actually, everything is good.

In the last year or so, I've lost everything, gotten it all back and then some, and then lost it all over again. Four family members have died since June '06. This past summer has probably been the most difficult time I've ever gone through, but I'm okay. I made it. I went through my first really terrible break up, and although it was rough, and being friends afterwards was worse, I'm okay. I pulled through. I lost my house. Twice. But now Alex and I rent out the basement apartment, and I love it. What could be better than to live with your best friend (and SEVEN cats!) and have your other best friend over so often, he may as well live with you too. Not a whole lot. It took me a long time to get here, but now, I'm okay.

I got a promotion. Even though I was kicked out of school, Jean had Tracy train me so I can work as a tech. And now I do. I'm doing surgeries and dentals now, and that's HUGE. Instead of hiring someone new, Jean preferred to train me because she thought I woulod do a better job. I love it there so much.

In short, I'm closer with Karie, Jamie, Alex, and Adam than ever before. I get along with my parents, (for the most part, anyway...) I'm happy where I live, I've got my babies back (and then some!) and I LOVE my job. Everything's going really well.

I'm looking forward to making costumes wih Alex over the next week. I'm looking forward to Adam coming over. I'm looking forward to hanging out with Amanda Bradley for my birthday on Wednesday. I'm looking forward to going to Tango's this Friday for my birthday with Adam, Alex, and Heather. I'm looking forward to partying with Karie, Jamie, Adam, Alex, Tony, Ryan, Kyle, and Cassy this weekend. I'm looking forward to going away for Christmas with Adam to Montreal.

I have the greatest friends in the world. Two weekends ago, Jamie, Adam, Alex and I had a drinking night at our place. Then Karie and Tony came down, and it was incredible. I've never felt so like myself as I do when I know I'm surrounded by people that give a damn. Especially them. The fact that two of my best friends are my siblings, definitely says something. They're incredible people, and I know I could turn to them for anything, and they'd be there. Same with Adam and Alex, who may as well be siblings.

It was nice to get that all down. Not for anyone else, but for me. I haven't used this journal in so long, there's an excellent chance nobody will read this. But I like it that way.

To everyone I love that's stuck by me, you're beautiful. To everyone I've loved and lost... well, I'd say it's better this way. Wouldn't you?
