the rollercoaster called life

I really should update this more. I think about writing all the time, but I can rarely organize my thoughts and actually make it to the computer before I lose my train of thought. Plus I get sick of reading my own posts and seeing how whiny they are.

Where to start????

CJ has been in Iraq since December 29th. She's called twice and emailed once. So at least the communication seems to be better than we'd hoped. The GF and I are thinking about throwing a box of stuff together to ship to CJ since we have an address now. I'm sure she would appreciate a few things from home.

Christmas wasn't as bad as it usually is. I did get emotional, but I'm going to blame that on the fact that I was really drunk. LOL

New Year's was depressing. It always is since it's the anniversary of Mom's death. I can't believe it's been 5 years. I still miss her all the time.

I had a pretty bad case of the flu. Spent two days on the couch doing nothing but sleeping and puking. I feel better but now I'm terrified that the GF is getting sick. Not that she'll admit it until she's so sick she can't move. Miss Tough Girl...that's her. She's not doing herself any favors trying to pretend she's not sick. If she would just take the medicine and rest, she'd get over it faster.

I'm supposed to call today about meeting with someone at PCC to go over admissions and financial aid. I'm seriously considering chickening out. It's all so overwhelming. I can always do school online.

  1. Your not the only one that reads your posts by the way. It doesn't matter if they are whiny or not. This is a place that you can talk about anything and/or vent. If it helps to get it off your chest then do it. Your thoughts don't have to make a whole lot of sense, as long as you feel better.
    I seen the list of things that CJ had left for you guys of things that she would like to receive while she is gone. I know that she doesn't know me very well, but do you think it would be okay if i sent her some things? Just want to make her stay there a bit more comfortable.

    I know New Year's is always hard for you. I can't believe its been 5 years either. If you ever need to talk I'm here.

    Tell Miss Tough Girl that its just gonna get worse if she doesn't handle it now. FHI (for her information): she is aloud to be human.

    Good luck with your school stuff. I know that this is a scary process, but I am sure you will choose wisely. I have faith in you.
