Where is clarity25? Recent vacation blog - http://twoshotsoftequila.blogspot.com/ "Eric's" Photobucket account - http://s795.photobucket.com/home/sketchbookshark/index

from blondeness :

Yes, I'm on facebook too! Look me up! Do you know my last name? Just look under Sue Rupnow. And congrats! 2 little girls, eh? :)

from blondeness :

Any new baby yet?;)

from blondeness :

Oh boy, I know that feeling. I was 5 days late with Brian. Good luck to you and keep us posted! Tomorrow? Yikes! Also, thank you for the note at my diary.:)

from blondeness :

Sounds like you are "nesting"! Good luck, hang in there, any day now....:)

from blondeness :

When is your due date again? Hang in there and good luck to you!! Do you know yet if it's a girl or boy?

from blondeness :

How difficult? Hmmm....I suppose that depends on how demanding, what kind of personality the new baby has as well as the other, the age of the other and how self sufficient and jealous (or not) the older one is. In some ways, for me, going to the 2nd child was not so bad, because Brian was at a good age, potty trained and such and a good helper, in others, and maybe that is just because they are both wild, active, boys, especially when I am home alone, sometimes I honestly feel like I'm going to go insane, lol, not to scare you! You'll do just fine.;) Besides, you did it once, and though all babies are a bit different, things will come more natural this time around and you'll sort of know what to expect and all. And when you see them bonding and playing together all cute...more than worth it.:)

from blondeness :

I think Audrey Grace is a very cute name, and pretty.:) But you better pick a boy name, just in case!;)

from blondeness :

OMG, just read your update now. Congrats!!!!

from blondeness :

Having been a teacher, my sister always knows the good books to get for the boys. Goodnight Moon used to be one of Brian's absolute FAVORITE! I should dig it up and read it to him and Bradley. Bradley does not sit still for long yet to read to him, he wants to grab at the pages and try to eat the book, but he sometimes listens to a page or two and points to things, but not when you ask him what is what just yet. Another good book for Olivia's age and older is Dr. Suess' "The Foot Book", lots of silly rhyming. Brian still loves it! Glad you guys had a good "outing", just the two of you.

from blondeness :

Thanks for your note.;)

from blondeness :

Thanks for your note. Glad you like the pics. Your family is beautiful too! Glad you had a great weekend. I know the feeling of being alone with the kids for a few days, as you can read from my entries. Hang in there! I laughed at that being excited about a Backyardigan party, LOL!:D

from neon-oreo :

Your diary is so intriguing! I saw your name in the "users online right now" box and just started reading. I like reading your old ones too. I'm back on diaryland after a hiatus of sorts. ha! hope all is well.

from blondeness :

Thanks for your note. Yeah, some days are not too bad and I have gotten out with the boys. As for the new formula, I don't know if it's because we are just giving him small bottles three times a day with his baby food and bigger bottles in between, or if it's the formula, but he still spits up, but sometimes not as much. But sometimes just as much too, but we are just going to stick with it, I guess.

from blondeness :

Oh how I know the spit ups! It's a constant thing for Bradley, just about, even if he's not sick. The doc said it's nothing to really worry about, but we are constantly changing bibs, going through burp rags, changing his clothes, our clothes, he spits up in the middle of changing him sometimes. We even recently decided to change formula again, to another brand this time, but that doesn't make a difference. I hope Olivia feels better soon.

from blondeness :

I'm jealous! I want a baby girl to buy a cute Easter Dress for! My heart always feels that "pang" when I see the cute Christmas and Easter dresses. But that's ok, we are still DONE having kids. I know you mean about how boys and girls are so different though!;)

from mommylap :

Oh nothing burns like having to buy a pricey balloon to make your child happy- but I was always pleasantly suprised at how long those foil balloons actually last- like more than a week!

from blondeness :

Thanks for your note.:)

from mommylap :

Paulina had tons of ear infections when she was a baby. Elizabeth didn't. Luckily the medicine seems to make the icky fever fussiness pass quickly. I am going to peruse your archives! Thanks for leaving me a note!

from blondeness :

I just read your entry now. How old is Olivia now? Bradley is only 4 months and is already just as long as she is!

from blondeness :

Yes, it is scary when they are sick. Is Olivia feeling better now too? She'll be talking before Bradley. I think Brian was 9 or 10 months when he said "DaDa" and it meant something, cause he looked right at Jason and said it and when Jason would leave, he would say, "DaDa?"

from blondeness :

Hey, I'm a second time mom and I still get excited at every little thing Bradley does, and Brian still. I just don't have as much time to write about it!:)

from blondeness :

I liked your entry about Olivia's milestones. I have a feeling Bradley might be an early scooter and crawler, but not YET. AT almost 4 months, he's trying to sit up on his own and pull himself up into a sitting position and he sometimes rolls over and sometimes scoots a little when he's trying to roll over, and I have a feeling that once he is mobile, look out world, look out my house! Tee Hee!:D

from blondeness :

oops, after already leaving my last note, I read your entry to see that you recently had a birthday. Happy Belated Bday to you!:)

from blondeness :

Thanks for your note. I've been meaning to leave you notes too. Sometimes I wonder myself how I do it with two small children too, lol. But I love motherhood. I complain, but the joys do outway the complaints, I'm sure you know.;)

from blondeness :

Thanks for the note. Yes, when I look at pics when Brian was just a newborn, he does resemble Brian somewhat. They both have my nose.:)

from blondeness :

Thanks for your note. Yes, I'm sure once she becomes active all will be fine. There are also little excercises you can manually do with her, lay her on her back and move her legs in a bicycle position, etc. Brian used to like that, though they told us to do it to help keep him from being constipated, tee hee, but it was also good for his muscles and stuff. Brian has about 20 kids in his class on the largest day (kids come on different days) and 12 on the smallest day. He LOVES it and is doing great.:)

from blondeness :

How old is Olivia? I forget. I think baby chub is cute..:) Brian was never really particulary chubby, but not underweight either and he ate a lot (or drank a lot of formula) for his age. I wouldn't be too concerned at this age. Feed her until she is full and maybe if the doctor feels she is too heavy at the next appt. she can recommend what you can do. That's just my opinion though.:) I agree at that age, so young, you don't want to deprive them of formula if they are hungry. She's such a cutie, by the way!

from blondeness :

Thanks for your note. As for my sister, oh boy, well, things have taken a turn for the worst....I'll update about it soon.

from blondeness :

awwww!!! What a cutie!!!

from blondeness :

Ok, I was able to view the photo. Olivia is just beautiful! How precious!! As for sleeping in her crib, Jason said he had trouble like that with Katie too, but as for Brian, he took right too it. We were lucky. As long as he had socks covering his feet, that is. He hated his barefeet to touch the bed and would hold them up into the air and cry! He still insists on sleeping in his socks!

from thrsdaychild :

Hey, remember me? haha. I used to read you way back in the day. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you congrats on that precious baby of yours!!!

from blondeness :

I tried to view the pic, but on my end it only comes up as an Xd box. Waahhh!:( And yes, being a mother is the most wonderful thing in the world, I agree.:)

from blondeness :

OMG!! Congrats!!! How exciting!! I never even knew you were even pregnant!! Thanks for the update!:)

from blondeness :

Merry Christmas!!!

from blondeness :

Hey, you're back! Cool.:)

from type-a- :

I'm so glad your cat came back! You must be so relieved.

from blondeness :

Hi, thanks for your note. Yeah, things are fine, just a mess with people trying to use my diary against Jasnon's sister, and her knowing about that now, so I had to make some changes as to what could be read. Now the last month's entries do show up, if you would like to catch up some. Thanks again.:)

from blondeness :

I just caught up on your diary, and am so sorry to hear about your grandma. My thoughts are with you. ((HUGS))!

from blondeness :

Hi! If you haven't noticed, I'm "locked" now. If you'd like a password you can email me at [email protected] It's probably only temporary, by the way.

from blondeness :

Thanks for your note!:) You thought I might speak like in Fargo? LMAO!!:D No, I don't, but my friend from New Jersey said that I do draw out my vowels some and say things like, "Noooooo" I don't hear it! I do hear how the jersey people pronounce water as "warder" though, LOL!

from blondeness :

Thank you for your note. It meant a lot...;)

from starlight42 :

Thanks for the well wishes!

from clarity25 :

Good luck with your first day of work!:)

from third-person :

Thanks for the note, lovely. I really like your attitude towards Valentine's day. And I didn't get to spend Valentine's with my Valentine either. But my post was his present.

from clarity25 :

[email protected]

from clarity25 :

Hi, I just got your note. (I rarely check my notepage these days) I don't have your E-mail address on my file, just drop me a line and I'll share the password with you.:). Now I'm going to catch up with your archives! I'm glad you're back, I hope you're doing well!

from blondeness :

Thanks so much for your note and for saying that I was actually "good" in the situation. It made me feel better and less alone to know that there are lots of moms that "freak" like that. I know my mom did too when we were kids and all.

from type-a- :

Glad you bought yourself things for V Day. At least you won't need to return anything!

from juilietta :

happy valentines day! I hate being in hotels alone. It doens't happen often though. I eat way too much when I'm by myself. anyway congrats on the job! someday I'll make something of myself...or marry someone who has haha. xo.

from blondeness :

A little late, but thanks so much for your kind note.:) I'm feeling much better now, and so is Katie. Luckilly Brian and Jason managed to not get sick!:)

from thrsdaychild :

Congratulations! I'm so proud of you! It's so weird to hear you talk about it all though. My mom's a branch manager of a bank..hehe. Anyway, like I said, I'm so happy you got the job, and I'll be thinking of you while you're away at training. Have fun with it and just think of it this way, you're doing something really good for yourself and Adam, and y'all's future together. Good luck!

from blondeness :

I'm so glad to hear you got the job!! Congrats to you!!!:D Also, thanks for my note. I'm glad you enjoyed the entry, now go and see the photos too! Also, YES, my sister's bday IS Jan.13th!! Wow!:D

from type-a- :

Yes, Pee Wee rocks. When he got arrested I defended him to everyone. Everybody plays with themselves - it was a dark theater! I know the Playhouse song by heart. I've always made the orange juice in ice tray with toothpicks treat. Ice cream soup! I love the activities you can try.

from blondeness :

Thanks so much for your note. I haven't read if you updated or not today, but I'm hoping you got the job.:)

from idealdrugs :

Thanks for the note. I'm doing alright, it'll just take some time. I just get attached really easily (as you know depending on how far back in my journal you've read). It will likely all work out for the best in the end anyway.

from clarity25 :

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!:)

from blondeness :

Did you get the job? And when was your bday? Was it good? I hope so on both counts!

from blondeness :

Happy Holidays to you!

from blondeness :

Oh, and good luck with the applications you submitted! I wish I could say I've submitted any yet!

from blondeness :

Thanks so much for your note! It meant a lot! Yes, thankfully, things otherwise are pretty good...:) Hope they get better for you as well!

from clarity25 :

It IS nice to dream and I'm playing the lotto too. It's silly, sure. But it's just nice to imagine you have a chance. Good luck with your job search, I hope it all works out for you and I hope you have a wonderful Christmas (despite the stress)

from blondeness :

I'm glad you had a good Thanksgiving and thank you for the note!;)

from blondeness :

Happy Thanksgiving!!

from blondeness :

sounds like you had a lot of fun! I LOVE Arbor Mist!! We bought some for Thanksgiving! Everytime we buy wine, it's that. And I've drank shots of Blackberry Brandy before...Bleck!! Hard to choke down!

from third-person :

Been catching up on your diary now that I'm back in diaryland on a semi-regular basis. It's been good to reconnect with your life.

from idealdrugs :

"Doomsday Book" by Connie Willis is my favorite book of all time. It's in the Sci-Fi section though it isn't really science fiction (think "Timeline" though she wrote it first!) and it's a perfect read around Christmas-time!

from blondeness :

I know what you mean about updating becoming addictive. Diaryland can be very "theraputic." I look forward to your random entries, until you are hooked up at home then.:)

from clarity25 :

I just read your last note, don't worry at all about the guest entry. After I had read about what you were going through, I didn't expect you to make an appearance. There is truly no need to apologize! Just take care of yourself:) -Love, Clarity

from clarity25 :

I'm so sorry that you got laid off and you don't have access to a computer on top of all of that. I know what you mean about writing in your online diary becoming sort of an addiction. It's the same with me, when anything happens in life, I have to write it down. I'm sorry everything has been so intensely difficult for you right now. I hope the situation improves soon. I wish there was something I could do to help. You're in my thoughts... Love, Clarity

from theflyingrat :

http://clarity25.diaryland.com/lineup.html - that is the entry I was referring to. :) Sorry for the confusion! (I'm guessing she doesn't still mean for you to do it though? I don't know.) ♥

from blondeness :

I just caught up on your diary. I'm so sorry to hear that you lost your job! That's always tough.:( (((HUGS))) and here's hoping that it's for the better--the change.:)

from theflyingrat :

Hi. I found you through Clarity. I've been waiting for you to get my guest entry off her index page. :) I'm sorry about your job. Things like that usually seem to happen for a reason. Good luck with everything. ♥ P.S. My name's Jenn, too. ;)

from idealdrugs :

Sorry to hear about your job! I wish there were something positive I could say for you but everything I can think of just sounds trite. Good luck with everything, though

from starlight42 :

Just wanted to say I completely understand your "check check" entry. Sorry to hear you're in a mood too.

from clarity25 :

Sorry to hear you've been in a bad mood this weekend. I hope you're feeling a bit better today. I have you signed up as a guest writer this Saturday. If you can't though, that's fine:). You can update on that day by clicking "add an entry" and clicking the little link that says "update Clarity25" over the text box. Thank you!

from blondeness :

Thanks so much for your note. Glad you liked the pics, and yes, I may post some from the pumpkin patch and from Halloween as well, so stay tuned! Also, I'm sorry to hear you were in a bad mood over the weekend...:(

from clarity25 :

I'm so glad you said "yes!", (yay!), I just thought I'd give you an advance warning. It will probably be some time in the next two weeks. I'll tell you a day in advance. (I'm still trying to figure all this out..haha!)As for what to write about, just a regular entry. Hope you're having a good weekend:)

from clarity25 :

Thanks for your kind note. You know I had a similiar experience with my mother's bible study group. I expected the worst but they were really accepting, kind and open. Oh and as you know my sister also has a pug, so I was laughing at the description. I was wondering if you would write a guest entry for my diary some day. Of course that would mean a lot of people would probably click on your link and come look at your diary. I don't know how comfortable you would feel about that, if not..that's okay. I just thought I'd ask you ahead of time.

from thrsdaychild :

Hey girl...sorry I haven't been responding to your notes. I've been lazy. :) Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed going to church. I usually do, but I don't go like I should. I always want to tell people that they'd probably like church, but in this day and age people tend to go on the defense and think you're being preachy, and then there's the fact that I don't go as much as I once did, so I try to be careful in what I say. But anyway, like I said, glad you enjoyed it. :)

from idealdrugs :

It was just like a church, but much simpler. My family back in Pa is "reformed menonite" so when Cathy said they went to a menonite church I had to go along. I hear this one is much more "liberal" howerever, especially since their interim pastor is gay. Don't think that flies at the "normal" menonite churches.

from blondeness :

I'm sending prayers and good wishes for your grandmother...

from starlight42 :

I know, I am such a people pleaser!!

from blondeness :

thanks for your note,and yeah, it was a good trip. Especially the getting drunk part, LOL!:D

from starlight42 :

first, hopefully you guys will get the rent situation figured out. that sucks. i have some friends in a similar situation, i know how that goes. as for thi coming camping- i guess i should have mentioned she's kevin's ex girlfriend, and his mom and her aren't best of friends, so it wouldn't really be cool i don't think. she barely came to the wedding because of it. :(

from alwaysaroura :

I know that I'm an adult and I shouldn't do things just to make my mother happy but it's hard not to. It's like no matter how terrible my mother and father were to me, I still want to impress them, I still want them to love me. I don't know what she'll do if I don't come home, I'll just have to hear about it for ages and she'll be disappointed and as much as I wish I didn't care, I do. I feel like I'm having a major pity party though and that's unnecessary because I have a beautiful and wonderful life now. How are things with you?

from blondeness :

I just wanted to thank you for your note.;) I still have yet to read your latest updates--lots of catching up to do!

from claritynew :

I'm so sorry to hear about the eviction. That really sucks so much, and you have a much better perspective than I would have. I'd be moaning and whining about the injustice of the world. You're moving right a long to looking at the next place and seeing things clearly. You mentioned you weren't happy anyway, so this will be a new beginning when you find a new place. (With a better landlord..GRRRR! Why do Landlords have to suck SO MUCH?!) Hope things start looking up for you soon.

from alwaysaroura :

Oh, I wish you had noted me sooner. It seems like we have a lot in common. I read your last entry. I am so sorry to hear that you are having financial problems. I hope that you and Adam can figure something out really soon and that you can manage to keep your animals. I'd die if I had to give up Juicy and Drake!! Also thanks for the comment and for making me feel slightly more normal and not totally insane. I just don't like for Taylor to be a way. He should be home in an hour or so though and I couldnt' be happier. I just want to be in his arms. Anyways you and Adam will get through this hard time, I just know it!!

from clarity25 :

Thanks for your last note, I know I've told you this before..but I really love your diary. It always pulls me in and the way you write is really captivating. You take your reader and allow them to see glimpses of your life through your eyes with all these details. It's too bad the font is so tiny on my laptop. I'm always leaning in to the screen when I read and squinting!:) I know what you mean about getting caught up in the smallest things and becoming upset over them. I've been doing that a lot lately too. Sorry to hear about your frightening dream, I hate dreams like that. They haunt you after you wake up and feel so REAL!

from blondeness :

I've been behaving the same way, getting all flustered over the little shit. How funny that your crying over spilt milk was so appropriate to you entry! I had to laugh! Hang in there. Hey, just know, I would have behaved the same way, so you are not alone!;)

from claritynew :

Thanks for your last note! Good luck tonight at your job! You'll do great:)

from thrsdaychild :

Hey there. I just wanted to say hello and good luck with your new job. I'm quite proud of you for picking up another job in addition to the one you already have. And waitressing too! I hated being a waitress, and don't intend to be one again unless absolutely necessary.

from clarity25 :

I'm glad to hear you got the job! It sounds like you're picking up on everything quickly. Good luck and have a good Labor day weekend!

from blondeness :

Thanks for your note. It meant a lot to me.;)

from idealdrugs :

I can't believe you live close to Geisinger. I was there in July. I agree that there is nothing to do there (read 2 books while visiting for 10 days) but I figure it'll only be for a year.

from clarity25 :

Wow!! I loved that "passionate kisses" entry! I read it over twice, I love how you started each paragraph by bringing us directly into the memory, the environment, the feelings. It was so captivating and well-written! It was all in the little details you shared..Okay,I'm rambling. That was a great entry though, I hope you have a good weekend!

from juilietta :

I wonder if he looked through it too. I hope he did. I got another email from him, and am thinking of posting it in my diary. stupid boys! I want passionate kisses.

from idealdrugs :

Thanks for the note you left me. "Two Step" is definitely one of my favorite Dave Matthews songs as well. My posts have been a little girl-heavy lately, but feel free to look through the archives. Dragongreen lemonaise and connie willis is a good post...

from thrsdaychild :

Hehe...that dime balancing pretend phone conversation cracked me up. Yall sound like the cutest couple.

from juilietta :

I liked your end of sumemr entry. I wish I had the composure to write an entry on my summer highlights, but so much has happened, and at the same time not that much..okay well, I mean I did move to another continent. I thought about writing an end of summer entry, but know I'd just go off on some rant about ben. Maybe at the very end of august I'll get it together.

from clarity25 :

Thanks for your last note. I really enjoyed reading your entry on your trip to NYC, the concert and your experiences. P.S. I never have the courage to wear eyeshadow, I've always wanted to though.. one of these days.. (Yes, that's random, I know..I just thought of this while reading your latest entry)

from blondeness :

I am so far behind on your journal that I JUST read your Streets of Philly entry in which you attended the Live 8 concert. ARRRGH!!! You saw my man "Bon Fuckin' Jovi"????!! I am a HUGE fan and have yet to see him live and I'm gonna miss him again this Saturday unless I somehow miraculously win tickets to his Miller Park Concert in Milw! Waaaaah!!!!! :(

from untamedwings :

I'm near Wilkes Barre ♥

from untamedwings :

Sounds like a fun weekend! Gotta ask, where do you live? I'm 90 minutes from the city so reading your entry made me curious.

from thrsdaychild :

Gosh. That sucks sweetie. Sorry you had to go through all that. At least everything's starting to get better, eh? Take care.

from untamedwings :

((((Hugs)))) Last fall a constable showed up at our front door with a warrant. It was for a car John GAVE to his mother years ago. She resold it & never transferred tags etc. He was hauled out for parking tickets across the state, in a city he has never visited. I had to pay it to get him out and THEN we could argue everything. Also I've had a $10 street cleaning ticket morph into $110 seemingly overnite. I moved & never got the original citation. I understand the multitude of feelings.

from claritynew :

I'm so sorry for what you're going through right now..I wish I had more comforting words. It just all sounds so awful:(. I'm Thinking of you. It will get better.

from blondeness :

Thanks for the note. It's nice to know that someone can even remotely relate or knows someone who can.:)

from starlight42 :

Thanks for the note. You made a very good point, and it is certainly true. Good luck with Adam getting the job he wants. It sounds like if he does, a lot of stuff would be more possible.

from clarity25 :

I hear you on the angst over the unpaid bills. I'm struggling with that too. Also my diary is a place for me as well to be my truest self and let out my thoughts, feelings, pains, life. My public diary not so much anymore, only because a few people from my everyday life have found it, so I've begun to censor myself. But my private folder definitely is. It's a good outlet to have and it means a lot when someone reaches out to share a kind word and offer comfort. Thank you for that.

from clarity25 :

I know what you mean about being Anti-social lately, I've been that way too. I feel bad about it, but sometimes you just need to take some time away from your current social circle. Good luck with your future trip to New York.:)

from blondeness :

Thanks for your note. I'll try to update next week, if I can on what has happened so far. It LOOKS like *maybe* he's finally taking action, now that Jason got on his ass and our brother Bobby showed up with us to the meeting, ha, ha! But we are going to *stay* on his ass!!!

from untamedwings :

Check your email ♥

from untamedwings :

Hi! Found you via clarity & blondeness both. Thought I'd say hi finally!I'm locked to keep out a few real life people but will give up the PW if you'd like it.

from claritynew :

"If you guys knew how we acted when we aren't in public, you'd probably never want to even speak to us ever again" LOL, it's the same with me and Eric. We're complete doof balls when it's just the two of us. I related to everything you wrote in that entry!

from blondeness :

Thank you so much for your kind note of support. It meant a lot.;)

from juilietta :

buy gifts for boyfriends is always a hard job. you did good!

from juilietta :

It's actually quite easy to do...if you do it illegally. There are lots of (free) au-pair agency websites. If you're serious about it come to swtzerland..out of the european countries it has the best pay, amazing shopping and sights, and you get at least a month paid vacation every year. That's how I became an au-pair...don't ask why because I really don't know.

from blondeness :

Thanks for the note.:) Yeah, I guess my Mom is "cute", tee hee!

from clarity25 :

I love your writing style, your entries always pull me in and I relate. As for gifts that are inexpensive..that's always so hard! I know because I'm always in that predicament. Wouldn't it be awesome if we actually HAD the money to buy the gifts for those we love..the ones we only imagine. Just to see their look of joy? Well, you can try something homemade, I usually create artwork or burn cd's with greatest hits..a caring card, a creative.."Outfit" *wink*

from claritynew :

Thank you for your caring note last week. That live 8 concert sounded awesome. I haven't been in a concert in a long time, I've read a number of entries about people's experiences at that same concert..but yours was the most descriptive. I felt like I was there..thanks! Hope you're having a good day!

from thrsdaychild :

I guess I could do a system recovery. That makes sense. But the problem is, I'm a little slow and don't know how. So, how might I go about that?? :)

from blondeness :

Thank you so much for your note and for your compliments. I was always afraid that my minut details might bore people, so it's glad to know that you like it. I need to devote more time to "getting to know" your journal, so I will be lurking around yours too.;) And thanks so much for adding me as a fave.:)

from claritynew :

I know what you mean, Here I am..married for three years, and I still worry deep inside that seven years down the line Eric will find someone better, someone that connects with on an even better level and leave me. It's irrational..yes, but I can't help it. It just feels too good to be true sometimes. You look around at the relationship statistics and feel a bit of fear. You know in your heart..but your mind feels worry. I guess you just have to let go, close your eyes and fall into it. Just believe. That sounds all sappy and poetic.. But I think you know what I mean.

from clarity25 :

I really love your diary, I can relate and it's such an honest glimpse into your life. Plus, finally I meet someone that parties as much as I do and has similiar feelings on different issues. I'm glad to hear your friend forgave you, friends are great like that.:), plus there are tons of little ways you can make it up to her. It's small in the big scheme of things, also I'm sorry to hear about your nightmares. I've been having a lot as well. Thanks for your note btw, concerning my private entry. Thanks for reaching out. Hope you have a good weekend:)

from third-person :

Thanks for the note! I was reading your most recent entry and I identified with feeling like you want to run away. Sometimes I just want to take off for some unknown place where I can start over. No note, no forwarding address, just taking off... Wanna come? :)

from thrsdaychild :

Cool...Now that I think about it, I think my aunt lives outside of philadelphia...allentown maybe? I am still thinking about visiting some time. But like I said in my diary, it will probably be late fall.

You were mentioning Pennsylvania...is that where you live? My aunt lives in Philadelphia and extended an offer to let me come live with her when she was here for Easter. I've actually toyed with the idea of doing so, but I'm a scaredy-cat when it comes to moving to a big (in comparison with where I live) new place where I'd know no more than two people.

from sweet-cynic :

can i have your email?

from sweet-cynic :

you are a big person. iwould have listened intently when he described the items. iw oudl also look and sift through the contents of that box. it's weird.. you can't help it. it's like a bad car accident. you know you shouldnt look but you.just. can't. help it.

from clarity25 :

Thanks for your compliment and letting me know that I'm not the only one that HATES pregnancy scares! I think they're the worst form of torture..as you go through all the "What if's.." and try to prepare yourself for whatever the results are going to be. All these emotions rush through your head "Maybe I can do this..No..No..I can't!.." Oh and I've been through Eric's boxes from his past. I've also looked at the photographs of him with his ex-girlfriends and felt a seed of jealousy at the sight of Eric kissing someone else. Even though it's entirely irrational because it's all in the past. But I know the feeling you described.

I'm happy to discover that I'm not the only female who enjoys Grand Theft Auto. There's just something about all that mayhem that appeals to my generally goody-two-shoes self.

from clarity25 :

the 21st birthday get-together sounded like fun, it reminded me alot of the parties I used to have with my friends in America..Oh and on an unrelated note, I love Grand Theft Auto too. I can play it for hours, it's addicting:). P.S. Thank you sincerely for your last note.

from thrsdaychild :

Hey there! Yup, the wedding was fun. I really enjoyed. Usually they make me feel like crap, because I don't have what the couple has, but this one really and truly gave me the warm and fuzzies. :) You had asked what my dress looked like- it was spaghetti strapped, empire-waisted and this rich shade of red. I'd never really seen red used in a wedding before, but once I saw how the color scheme worked it all came together. For example she had her white dress and carried red roses, we had our red dresses and carried white roses, and the ushers all wore white dress shirts with red ties, etc. It was nice.

from clarity25 :

You're right! Our Red hair experiences ARE very similiar! Thank you for sharing that with me and giving me the dates for the entries so I could check it out! I was thinking "Yeah...that's exactly how I feel too!". I started reading your current entries and moving backwards through your archive. I love your honesty and how you write about the events that unfold in your life with such detail. I really enjoyed your observations on life and I like how you get excited about even the little things. (I.E. a new razor and a really cool bag for only 8 dollars!) I'm the same way! Alot of times I would read something you wrote and truly relate to your sentiment. Oh and you had mentioned Your boyfriend asking you to dance for him. Eric did that once too and at first I was nervous as well..I wrote about it in an entry called "Lets talk about sex Volume 2", it's in my archive. You might find it interesting:). Anyways, I just wanted to let you know I was going through your archive this morning and I really like your journal!

from starlight42 :

Thanks for stopping by my diary! Yes, it always feels good to know when guys are interested in us. An ego boost never hurt anyone :)

from humanspirit :

Hey there!

from sweet-cynic :

the only word i caught from all that was "sleep".. mmm. sleep. sigh.

from sweet-cynic :

hmmm. maybe try new things with each other? might stimulate new thoughts and make yourself evolve and then share share share the newness?

from sweet-cynic :

lovely new layout.

from thrsdaychild :

Thank you very much. It was, still is actually, a tough situation. Just keep his parents and sister in your prayers. I don't think it's really hit them yet, what has happened.

from sweet-cynic :

hopefully adam will feel better soon.. especially when you two quit/start quitting. i'm happy you're thinking about quitting. that's one of my biggest worries. i've tried since iw as 5 to get my dad to quit and he finally has although i found out not too long ago that he hadnt completely quit but i'm hopeful he's finally kicked the habit.

from thrsdaychild :

best of wishes for adam's health!!! (and for your peace of mind!!!)

from sweet-cynic :

that was a very confucian entry you have today.. about nto worrying about what you look like and just focusing on being a good person.

from sweet-cynic :

hello darling. your latest entry makes me want/miss having a sister. i have a half sister.. but only technically. she's hardly ever in my life. i love just finishing laundry as well. it's as if your wardrobe has expanded!

from thrsdaychild :

Hello, it's juskidding here! My new diary is thrsdaychild. I sent the password by way of your diaryland email address. Did you receive??

from juskidding :

Sorry it's taken me so long to answer your note. As you've probably read/noticed, I'm going through a sort of changeover with my diary. (Do you want the new address and password for the new one by the way??) Anyway, you asked about the Beale St. Music Festival. It's something they have every year as a part of their Memphis in May celebration in Memphis, TN. A whole bunch of bands and singers and the such come to Memphis for one weekend that's just non-stop concerts. It's kind of a music themed Mardi Gras (yet a bit more tame,lol). Anyway, if you want to read more, go to http://www.memphisinmay.org. Anyway, about your entry talking about you worrying about your looks. I think you're completely normal. You'd be pretty weird to not have something about your looks that you didn't like. :) Think of the prettiest girl you know or a celebrity you think is just gorgeous and they probably worry about the same things you do. Their self-confidence and assurance about themselves just comes a little easier because they have stylists and makeup artists and airbrushing to help them along, not to mention a nation's worth of adoring fans. So, yeah. That's what I think. :P

from sweet-cynic :

wow wow wow. he called you that? wow. hunny, you're handling it a WHOLE of a lot better than I am. That's something I will ALWAYS use against him to settle all future fights. "well, you called me a cunt so we're even!!" That was a fuckwit thing to do. not calling him a fuckwit cuz i don't know him, but THAT was a fuckwit thing to do. i hope gets help with his drinking. i hope that if he doesn't, you'll find the strength to leave.

from third-person :

LOL, I love the cowboy joke.

from juskidding :

My sentiments EXACTLY about school. And about the wedding...I think I've been in a total of 5 in my life thus far, this one coming up being the 6th, and another one following in June will be my 7th. I bring new meaning to "Never a bride, always a bridesmaid." Actually this will only be my second time as a bridesmaid, technically even, only my first because the other time I was the maid of honor. But whatever. After awhile, they all become a blur. ANYWHO...I myself don't even know what the dresses look like. I won't find out until Saturday when I go to the bridal shop for measurements. But...I'll keep you posted! :P

from juskidding :

Yeah. As you've probably noticed (lol...I only talk about it every other entry) I just don't feel like college is right for me at the moment. I'm just getting tired of people equating college with me making anything of myself, and that I'm just wasting my life doing anything else, ya know? And everyone seems to think that because I'm not going now, I'll never go. I mean I've already gone two and a half years and have an associate's degree, for crying out loud. Once the desire returns, I don't have any doubt in my mind that I'm going to act on it. Thank you my friend, for being one of the few who truly relate.

from third-person :

It's nice to see I'm not the only one who tends to say irrational things when they're upset. And the need to cry, reason or no reason? Too true, too true.

from playnaked :

I checked out your diary and I love all the pink. just wanted to say thanks for the note and thanks for looking at mine. I didn't think anyone ever read it. Have a great day!

from sweet-cynic :

nice entry. happy valentines day and im envious of your new sex toys!

from sweet-cynic :

yes mam. but i didn't drive it, i rode on jon's bike. it wasn't so bad since it was only 30 seconds and he just went around his parking lot. yesterday however, he took me to lunch on his bike and i was too scared to lean into his turns and he wouldn't stop yellign at me haha. "LEANNNN LINDA!!" "Noooooooo"

from third-person :

That's adorable. I remember my mom always yelling at me for picking up feathers because birds were dirty and they carried diseases. Can you tell how much fun my childhood was? LOL

from nikki-lish :

hey thanx for leaving me a note, i like ur design too! i love anything that's pink! it sounds like we have a bit in common - i still play the piano every now and then, hopefully i'll be able to take it with me when i move out so i can keep it up.

from sweet-cynic :

that is cute in a strange way

from sweet-cynic :

i miss the piano. i played for 11 years and then quit in highschool and now... now...... i can hardly remember how to read music. so depressing. i really want to get back on the horse but it's humiliating and shameful to hear myself SUCK so badly when i used to be so good so i just avoid it. bad. my favorite time of day is going to bed as well. we don't see each other during the day on weekdays and it's just a nice time to.. just be and unwind and cuddle and then sleep.

from juskidding :

You know what? I have two Silverchair CD's...Neon Ballroom, and Freakshow, along with various random other songs on burnt cds. I could SO hook you up with some copies! :)

from third-person :

Just about to update, had a bit of an emergency. Thanks for the encouragement! I've never played piano, but I've been told I have piano fingers. Whatever the heck that means...

from juskidding :

Feb. is a great month indeed. Actually, I've never really liked it because it includes Valentine's Day and I've NEVER had someone on V-Day. But I've got plans either way this year. So whatever. Long live St.Valentine.

from sweet-cynic :

ive never had jacuzzi sex. something on my never ending to do list. sounds romantic as well as hot. i'd be insulted if doug didnt want to come along to family outings/dinner. doesnt he want to make a good impression on your family? they are infact, your first loves. good luck with that.

from juskidding :

Hey there again...Thanks for the job wishes and whatnot. I applied today so keep your fingers crossed! Anywho...I totally relate on the past girlfriends thing. It irks my bottom too to think there have been girls other than me. But just think about it this way, they're not still around and you're the one he's with now! Later!

from third-person :

Just happened upon your journal. One of my close friends is currently over in Iraq. Anytime they announce that a soldier's been killed, my heart leaps into my throat and I stay glued to the newscasts. It's rough.

from sweet-cynic :

actually, i'd go if it was cheaper or if someone initiated. just to try more dishes. it wasn't bad but it wasn't spectacular.. Don't get me wrong, I love just experiencing the culture. i like eating all kinds of food because it's a more accessible way of traveling. don't you think?

from sweet-cynic :

love the new layout!

from juskidding :

Hey there...Thanks for stopping by and leaving a note! I hope you keep reading! I have you bookmarked. Thanks again.

from sweet-cynic :

happy belated birthday!

from sweet-cynic :

thanks for the note! read your current entry and it's cool you can actually write out a list. It's kind of like a soundtrack of your life.. a sextrack? anyways, I can't do any such thing yet. I've only been with one boy the past three years. my list would be lonely hence no list.

from sex--goddess :

Just wanted to say thanks for the note! Your diary looks interesting. I'm gonna have to find the time to read all of it.
