There's so much I have to say, but I don't want this journal to get too depressing. So I will save some of my thoughts for another time. I have to say though, today was such a crappy day. I am not going to the Chicago Film Festival. I am so disappointed. I know I shouldn't let it bother me, but I really wanted to go. Why do I let myself get my hopes up? And why do I continue to allow people to let me down?
Anyway, here are a few things I've found to be happy about, so you all don't hate me for being so down all the time.
+ The White Sox are in the World Series!
+ I had the BEST salad from Max & Erma's tonight. It's the Santa Fe salad and it's got lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, chicken, ranch dressing & tortilla strips. I had it once when LR and I ate there, and I loved it, so I stopped in tonight & got it to go (again, I can't eat by myself)
+ I got a few things at Bath & Body Works. Not everything I was looking for, but it's a start
+ I got an email from my very first trainer, SK, today :)
So my roommate is home now. He says he is going to be around more often. We'll see how that goes. He's not very talkative. I wish we could hang out. I don't think that will happen.
I think I am the only person who hasn't seen Elizabethtown. Damn it. Even people I would never think would see it, have seen it. I think I'm becoming one of those people who has to wait until movies come out on DVD.
I wish I had some close friends around here. Someone who I could call any time, who would be there for me. I don't have anyone like that.
I am going to call my former best friend & see if she is free this weekend. The last time I heard from her was around Labor Day. I still hope we can be friends again.
So, in that book I mentioned yesterday, it says that time is your enemy when trying to find a husband: "If I were to pick the age at which a woman should put extra effort into finding a husband, it would be twenty-eight" (Molloy 50). Fuck. I have just over 6 months before I become desperate. I have plenty of thoughts regarding this book. Sometimes it makes me think, other times I want to hurl it across the room. Why is it always about the woman though? Why aren't there books called "Why Women Marry Some Men and Not Others"?? I think it's because men just don't care as much about getting married. They could take it or leave it. They like being bachelors and not being tied down. However, all I really want in life is to fall in love & get married. I don't care if I never become rich or famous, as long as I am happy and in love.
Even though I love/hate this book, I am studying it in hopes that it will help me out somehow. Then again, it is just a book.

Everyone's known someone they just can't help but want
Even though we just can't make it work out
Well the want to lingers on
