Thanks again to everyone for all of their kind words about my last family drama. Luckily, the issue has been resolved and my family can now focus on all of our other dysfunctions-such as my drug addict brother.

But yes…just went crazy buying clothes with hollydb at Lane Bryant and I actually have more on reserve to pick up tomorrow. The past two weeks ( Read more... )

Okay, so it’s 5:30 in the morning and I’m awake and crying. And I know it’s foolish and I know I’m probably over-reacting, but I can’t help it. Maybe it’s the incident at hand or maybe it represents some larger issues in my subconscious that I haven’t yet come to terms with.

So it goes like this: when I converse with people in RL, I have a tendency ( Read more... )

First of all, thank you for everyone for their warm wishes regarding the situation with my brother. Though some of the intensity has changed since my last point, the fact that my brother needs treatment is unchanged.

The main issue at this point is getting my brother to realize that he can’t get better on his own. He’s admitted that he does have a ( Read more... )

I have no idea where to begin except to say that my family gets more dysfunctional daily. And on days like today the dysfunction just gets compounded.

I’m really too tired to go into details-my head cold has really drained me and I’m about ready to drop.

Long story short: Greg’s drug problem has escalated out of control. It’s been confirmed that ( Read more... )

I skipped Ceramics today. Granted I spent it at work so I wasn’t completely slacking. Also, I was further ahead of everyone in making throw pots, though I really need to work on my technique. I figure I have 4 more class hours this week and I can also go in any time I want…so I’m fine.

I think I’m getting a cold. I’m not surprised since essentially ( Read more... )

Well, my Uncle Ronnie died tonight.

We knew it was coming for weeks. In fact, I’ve mentioned it in at least one past post. But we knew it was pretty imminent when my crazy psychotic book-stealing aunt called last night and said they were taking him off life support today. And it was on our minds all day. All day. My brothers and I kept reminding ( Read more... )

Thank you for all the warm wishes during the ice storm. It was pretty nasty, but both

Happy New Year to everyone! I hope everyone had a good time! I spent the night with hollydb and we drank a little wine and watched a whole lot of Ghost Hunters and Scrubs (didn't say I liked it!! Hehehehe)

Aside from watching a lot of TV in Holly's basement, I spent most of the weekend using her wireless internet to download music-now my new ( Read more... )

I just finished my tasty dinner of pizza and a piece of leftover pecan pie and am finally getting to settle down from a hectic day of work and prepare for what almost guarantees to be a wacky weekend.

First, it’s New Year’s weekend. I’ll be spending it with

So I was going to come home and go straight to bed.

That didn't happen.

First, I got my Nintendo home and hooked up and it isn't working. As much as that bumbs me out, It's gonna kill Mikey when I tell him in the morning. Since he's getting ready for his cruise, hopefully he'll just forget to ask me about it. I'll tinker with it a little more in the ( Read more... )
