I haven't the slightest clue about what to type here...
...but I suppose an update on my life is in order!
Let me go ahead and recap the past year of my life, since that's pretty much the last time I made any sort of real post in my LJ.
Back in August of last year, I broke up with Brad. We were just having too many issues that we couldn't resolve, and I felt the time had come for us to move on with each other's individual lives. He didn't react too well to this news, and we fought quite a bit after it happened. We lived together until about December, when Brad decided to sit me down and tell me that he cheated on me. Twice. I guess I shouldn't have been surprised since Brad has some major self esteem issues that he even still needs to work on, but suffice it to say that I wasn't too happy about the news. We had a major falling out and he was committed to a mental health treatment facility for what I can only assume was a nervous breakdown (I'm still not too clear about what happened). So I pretty much was forced to move out of the apartment since I couldn't find a roomate on such short notice to take over Brad's portion of the lease, and I wound up living with my mommy (which is where I presently live). I truly feel that Brad is genuinely bipolar, and because of this, I'm not even sure where we stand. Sometimes I think we're moving towards a friendship, but then he'll say or do something to change my mind about that.
Well, that's enough about Brad.
The day before my birthday last year, my father passed away in a car crash in Las Vegas. I was pretty bummed out about it for a little while, but I'm slowly coming to terms with the fact that things in my life are changing in a major way, so accepting his death is becoming easier every day.
I'm also getting more involved with the friends that I've pretty much shunned for the most part while I was still with Brad. How they're even still friends with me is beyond my comprehension, but I appreciate the fact that they've reacclimated me back into the group and that they didn't harangue me about my absence.
In general, I'm a lot happier now than I was even a year ago, and better things are coming my way soon. I love all of you guys, and I want to thank you for sticking around through the thick and thin <3
