pack it up pack it in, let me begin:

someone else besides me and cc should create a thread or i am going to pistol whip every last one of you.


well judging from the last couple of threads - we all have our share of problems (whether it be family/feelings for others/etc.) it made me realize that other people don't just live inside their own version of nirvana, immune to any distractions and vices. my emotional output had always been severely capped until i finally looked at the world in a different perspective and realized that i actually am my own person. there is no one out there like me. i am so happy about that. but back to what i was saying before: i was always under the impression until a short while ago that everyone lived in a perfect bubble and i was the only one that suffered from various issues.

it's no "insider's information" that i liked cc near the ending of eighth grade. and then directly thereafter began, what i would say, the biggest infatuation of my life. and to cut a looooooong six months of having mixed emotions and having endless nights of being petrified for reasons beyond my capabilities of reasoning about one person – i picked up on the fact that i had problems to deal with and i couldn’t go on living the way i was. it clicked one day, involuntarily. i slowly understood that other people, too, had problems to deal with. i'm glad i'm not the only one. i always thought i was the only one that had a complex and perplexing mind that would get clogged from a series of worries and doubts and fears. it's not easy, i tell you. the reason i bring this up is not to revel in my past miseries with hopes to glean some spare sympathy. i bring this up to show that i know what it feels like to feel like there is nowhere to turn. i know what it feels like to be tired of living life. i know what it feels like to have to wake up everyday with no sunshine and no warmth. i know what it feels like to be alone in a foreign place with no one to joke around with. i know what it's like to want to press the STOP button time just so you can catch your breath from everything around you. i know what it feels like when the walls are about to close in on you and you regret not preparing for it beforehand.

i recovered. everyone can.

problems are not uncommon. problems have their degrees. problems are not fun.


on a lighter note:

who's up for some ralph's on saturday night. i think thegarage should head out for pizza and lavamonsters on the beach on saturday night to celebrate the forum that cc conceived one night from inside of her digital womb. i also have trimesters the week after and it'll be nice to see everyone before i take them, too.


godspeed and i love you all.

Hey! Leave my Christmas deer out of this. They're all peacefull, pretending to electronically eat the dirt in my now-dead flower bed.

But they do look snazzy, I must say.


Mm...I probably should post soon. But I'm sooooo busy lately! And, I'm sick. Which is icky.

BTW, Ralphs on Saturday sounds fabulous. I gotta double-check my schedual before I confirm I can make it, but I'd certainly love to be there with you all.

PS- I'll have to Kung-fu you if you try to give me stitches, Patrick. Hiiiya!
