A little sad today

While going down to the basement to do some laundry, I saw a little pawprint in the mud of the cellar.

I miss that little dog.

P: I'm sorry I had to stick you in that room today. But I needed a good technician to take care of it.

Me: Oh. I was going to say, 'This is because I went away for a week, isn't it??'

P: *laughs* Yes. I thought to myself, 'I'll fix her when she gets back.'

Happy Birthday

To Finn.

A really cool guy, and definately one of my favorite co-workers.

And so it is done

She is moved out.

She will be back on Tuesday though to get rid of the trash she left, and to return a few things she took from me.

Bring It

So I spent the day getting to listen to her pack

And taking pictures of the dog and the tortoise (both of which I named, not that that really matters now)

But it is done. I am now the only person on the lease. And as that I exercised my right and had one of the locks changed

Oh, all her stuff is still here. She technically moving out tomorrow. Said she would 'try and get it all done'

But she also decided to be a bitch and said she wouldn't give me back the keys she had until all her stuff was moved

That's fine with me now. The deadbolt is changed. And by next week I will have a new bottom lock as well (just so they are matching)

I'm not going to be her damn storage locker. She's lucky I don't just start throwing her things out the damn window


Moral: Don't f--- with me

Quotes

from the convention I went to.



TH: Where did you come from?
JB: My mother?

Random Lady: It smells like church in here.

Me: It appears that having an open bar will make me eat tomotoes. Curious.

Going Once

For $1200 you too can get me out of your life.

Why I love addi

from here

Dream Saturday

wake up alive
coffee and donuts
play tennis (well)
watch my college team beat Notre Dame
Shower (so fresh and so clean)
Go to my favorite mexican resturant and see libra, sweet p, beetlebum, and nov all sitting there in catholic school uniforms waiting for me with a carafe of semi-sweet margaritas.



*reality says I may have to be happy with just waking up alive

And the venom comes out...

I can take comfort in the fact that at least I am not a slut who will open her legs for anyone that gives her a little attention.


And on a not completely unrelated side note...

Shawn
You are lucky I love you
Because if anyone else had made that joke...

Happy Birthday

To T.

DONT FORGET TO REPOST WITH YOUR DOLLAR AMOUNT!

I was walking the dog this morning. And yes, I do realize she isn't mine any more. A lot of people wonder why I still take care of her then. But I don't feel she should suffer just because S. is being a bitch. The dog didn't do anything.

Anyway.

I am going to miss the little dog. A lot. But I know that she will forget me, in time. Maybe if we saw one another again she would remember, but since even that is unlikely, this is it.

I wonder if she will miss me. Even if only for a little while. Wonder where I have gone.


Anyone who has seen the Futurama episode about Fry and his dog will know what I speak of.

She says it has affected her. Just look at her grades for the semester.

I don't give a fuck about grades!!

Feel something you heartless bitch.

"You don't get it, T. This wasn't just a random relationship. This was forever."

"Well, you seem to be handling better than I would. I would be really self destructive."

"Oh, I could tell you stories."

2 Weeks

Two weeks from today she'll be gone.

Everything is boiled down to 14 days.

There is nothing positive about our time together that invades my memory, as hard as I try.

I realize that that wounds are still open and raw, and maybe I will be able to look back one day and not loathe.

But it is not looking likely now.

Mmmm...leopard

My brother sent me this and it made me laugh.

I went on a on a photo safari in Africa last weekend, taking my faithful toy poodle, Narley Charlie along for company. One day the poodle starts chasing butterflies and before long he discovers that he is lost.

Wandering about, he notices a leopard heading rapidly in his direction with the obvious intention of having lunch. The poodle thinks, "Uh-oh, I'm in deep trouble now!"

Noticing some bones on the ground close by, he immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat.

Just as the leopard is about to leap, the poodle exclaims loudly, "Boy, that was one delicious leopard. I wonder if there are any more around here."

Hearing this, the leopard halts his attack in mid-stride, a look of terror comes over him, and he slinks away into the trees. "Whew," says the leopard. "That was close. That poodle nearly had me."

Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the leopard. So, off he goes. But the poodle sees him heading after the leopard with great speed, and figures that something must be up.

The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard. The leopard is furious at being made a fool of and says, "Here monkey, hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that conniving canine."

Now the poodle sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back and thinks, "What am I going to do now?" But instead of running, the poodle sits down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet and, just when they get close enough to hear him, the poodle says, "Where's that damn monkey? I sent him off half an hour ago to bring me another leopard!"

SOMETIMES BULLS--T AND BRILLIANCE ARE THE SAME

Anyone know if you have to take out body jewelry to travel on the airlines?

I'd rather not...as it has not fully healed yet. But at the same time, I would like to avoid what could be an embarrassing wand waving and possible strip search.

So the boy is coming home in November.

It was originally to help me move, but since that probably won't be happening, it is just to hang out with me. Probably starting on my birthday. Which will be the best, as I'm not too keen on spending it by myself.

Then we will go to NJ for Thanksgiving.

I don't know which is funnier

The fact that she tries to be my friend

or

the fact that she thinks she'll be my friend after she moves out in 17 days

I will never believe that she was ever in love with me.

I don't think I ever believed it...not really, anyway.

You don't just give up on someone you love.

...Again


She said 'I love you' first, btw.

I suppose then I should have asked the context.

I can't go to Dachshund day in NYC.

Which bites because I have had it on my calendar for months.

But everything happened all at once and with my conference coming up soon I just can't get away.

Maybe in the spring.

Through Love's Eyes

This weekend:

Grandma: You know, Melissa, I always got this feeling that S. was a lesbian. She just had some of those tendancies.


---

If I had been drinking something, I would have surely spit it out clear across the room.

Yes, my grandmother had/has no idea we were in a relationship. To grandma, the two of us were just roommates. And neither my mom or I are going to tell/correct her. We don't want to upset grandma. She's not in the best of health as it is.

Before anyone gets all rightous on me, you have to understand. My grandmother comes from a generation where same sex relationships are looked down upon totally. There is only slightly more acceptance today, but that is another post for another time. And I all ready feel horrible that I won't be able to have her see or be at my wedding. Not unless a guy comes along, we fall madly in love and have a whirlwind romance and a quicky wedding.

---

In another note, I did get through the weekend without crying. I got to visit with my family and have a long talk with my mom. My brother will be coming home in November and hanging out with me (which I will sorely need).

Everything still hurts. But there is nothing I can do about it.
