I spent most of my free time last week reading every single entry I've posted since 2004 when I opened my account. I would like to start by apologizing to everyone who had to read the ridiculous crap I've obsessed about over the years. If me now could slap some sense into me then that would be great.
I would then like to thank everyone who stuck around and read all of the ridiculous crap I've posted over the years. It really means a lot to me that you guys were there when I needed you.
I guess it takes a long time to grow up. Ups and downs are just part of that and young people seem to have a lot more downs than ups. Also, people seem to post more about their downs than their ups. I guess it helps to get things out there and off your shoulders.
Reading all of my old posts helped me realize even more that my life now is awesome. It's great to see the crap I've gone through and that I've come out the other end mostly intact. I've been happily married for over a year now. It's amazing to get to be with the person you were meant to spend the rest of your life with. The way Dave and I connect should be written down and studied for future generations.
We have an awesome dog named Bruce who, until we have kids, serves as our child. He makes an awesome kid and a great fuzzy companion.
My mom passed away November 2009, about two weeks after the wedding. I still miss her and hope she knew that everything with me would turn out okay. She got to see her little girl get married, which I'm very glad for. My dad is doing alright. I know he still misses her, but that's what happens when you lose your soul mate.
With a lot of help from Dave, who should have a side job as an internet stalker, we've found my birth mother. She lives in Titusville and I have had the chance to get to know her and her other two daughters. I've never felt a big need to find my birth parents, because my mom and dad have always been such amazing parents, but it's pretty cool to see where I really came from, and to see the similarities between her and me.
That's pretty much what's been going on recently. I'm happy, and as whole as anyone could hope to be. Thanks for listening guys! As I've said at the end of almost all of my posts, I love you guys! :)
