So what.....

[incessantlychic]

I'm in Michigan. The drive took about 11 hours.

Should have taken 12 or 13. Oops.

I'm such a dumb piece of crap. I just finished watching that movie 'A Walk to Remember' with Mandy Moore, and Shane West... Man, I cried through that whole stupid movie. It wasn't just light tears either, I was full on sobbing like an idiot. It's just so sad!

yeah man. it's kinda weird and stuff. i still talk to my closest friends from highschool but not many people.

well, let's see. after highschool i moved in with my dad because my mom lost the house in her divorce with dave. i went to OCC for a year and hung out with my friends. 5 of my pals got a house in grand blanc, so i pretty much lived there for a while. then i went to western michigan for a semester and thought i hated it but really i just had a boyfriend back home. so i moved back in with my dad after a semester there and went to OCC for another semester. then i moved here to chicago with my friends melissa and ron. i went to columbia college for photography for a year and then i didn't go back this semester. i totally don't know what i want to do with my life and i've taken every last gen. ed. class possible. so at this point if i don't know what i'm doing i'm wasting my time. so i took a year off. now i just live in chicago with 4 other people in this huge house and i can not STAND 2 of my roommates. but it's going alright. i work at an indie record store called Reckless Records. i don't get paid shit but i get awesome hookups and get in to lots of shows free. i'm thinking about bartending again because i love it and it's good money.

i've got 3 tattoos, one i regret, one that's pretty cool and one that i absolutely love. i want to get my first one covered up and i want to get one or 2 more. then i'll be set i think. other than that i just read a lot of books, watch too much tv, listen to lots of music, drink alcohol, and fight with my roommates. i kind of hate where i'm at in life right now but i'm working on getting out of here and doing something good. i'm just bored, and i feel stagnant and lonely. i moved out here not knowing anyone. it's hard to make friends! how did we do it when we were 10?!

my mom and chels are good. chelsea graduated from highschool... on time! it was a huge relief to my mom and me. she's dating this kid Burt who's 22 and they've been together for a while. she just quit a great job because she doesn't "want to drive in the snow so far in the morning." helloooooo, it's michigan. it snows. every year. anyway, my mom lives in fenton in a cute little house that was made into apartments. she still misses dave and blah blah but i think she just misses being in love and if she got out and found a GOOD man then she wouldn't miss him anymore. she needs a friend like your mom, but they're both too stubborn to apologize and not be babies about it. so whatever. it makes me sad. my dad is a freaking crack head (not literally) and still acts like he's 17 at all times. he's being considered for one of three positions at GM racing... he'd be making and working on racecars around the world - his dream job. he's not married and doesn't even have a girlfriend. i think he's too scared to be in love again. his first love divorced him and his second died before they got married. :( but he's still going strong.

remember kim? yeah, well she's got a baby and lives with my dad again. it's not my dad's baby, don't worry. but there's some crazy drama that went down regarding the identity of the baby's father and it made me realize that my life isn't so bad. she's not a very good mother and she's too immature, but whatever. my dad's attached to that kid now and would never kick her out. great.

so this is getting long. i'm gonna go eat some lunch. take care!!!
