Wow, another week has come and gone. This summer is really going by quickly. Every weekend I'm either hosting or attending at least one party it seems. Usually I have Fridays off as this whole budget cutting plan slowly works its way through the company. This of course means that the weekend gets under way on Thursday night. Drinking like a fish all weekend long is catching up with me. I'm finally realizing that I'm not 19 anymore and can't party like a rock star because today I could fall asleep at my desk. DAMN IT, getting old sucks.
Anyways, the step-monster and sister were in town for the weekend. Not much to report on that front. It was good to see them, but I can go another 4 or 5 years without seeing them again and be fine with it. We're just not close. Now my family here and in Pennsylvania? That's my real family! Couldn't live without them!
We had a cookout for my other sister's boyfriend yesterday. He's home from Iraq for a few weeks, so we had a welcome home party. Wow, the things he talks about being over there off and on for about 5 years can be both horrifying and amusing. It was good to have him back though and you could tell my sister is happy. Hopefully when he goes back, he'll only be there till the end of the year. I can't imagine how hard it must be for families that have a loved one in the military. I mean, my sister is young, not even 30 yet, no kids and not married to this guy. Of course they're in love and all that, but it must take an incredible amount of personal strength to only see him a couple of times a year. Personally, I couldn't do it.
Anyways, back to less depressing shit....
5 Reasons I'm Happy Right Now:
1. 2 out of 3 kids are with my grandparents for the week
2. After he gets his shit out of my garage, I can actually organize it and get some stuff out of the house which will make me SOOOO happy.
3. I have plans to hang out tonight and watch movies, not party
4. Those plans include a certain hot boy I left in my bed this morning :)
5. That hot boy is in town for 2 more weeks :)
Happy Monday!!
Hey, It's Okay

I love that your writing is so honest, and hope you keep at it. Your voice is strong and you know how to tell a story. Just don't wait 20 years, when you're 51 like me, to finally get your book out!
Keep up the good work.
WOW, Linda thank you so much for your comments! Hey, if you have to censor your writing and not be dead honest about it, its probably not worth writing right?
