I'm doing my best to hold my head above the water. Matt's schooling is going great, he has A's in all of his classes. He only has like 3 weeks to go and his 1st quarter will be over. We desperately need another car but don't have the money right now. I've been walking to and from work sometimes on his school days. Lately I've been lucky enough to find rides, mostly from our roomie. He's been home a lot more now that he finally broke up with his gf. The Xbox took a shit on us and Microsoft said it would be $100 to fix. So Matt will be going without video games for a really long time. He wants to buy a laptop with our tax money and I very strongly disagree with that, I think we should use it to get ahead of bills so we can pay down our Best Buy Credit card faster and use that to buy the laptop on. Our desktop is taking a shit on us too, but it is like 4 years old. One of the USB ports doesn't work anymore. What is it with machines lately? I'm excited to vote in my first Presidential election soon. I know all the stress everyone feels, but I think people are getting too bent out of shape. No matter the outcome of any election is there going to be 100% happiness, there's always going to be someone who's bitching, but hey, that's what Americans are good at, right? A lot of people fail to see how many of us got ourselves in the mess we are in OURSELVES. Like all you people who have a million kids and are living off hard working peoples tax dollars....but I digress... We had 2 funerals in the past 2 weeks, Matt's uncle and then his gma. Both will be dearly missed. I've gotten my poor excuse of a Christian arse back into church and am working on strengthening my relationship with God. Matt and I are also looking in to volunteer work. But, that's about it. Nothing too exciting, except for t.v. Heroes, House, Prison Break, Eli Stone and 30 Rock keep me going. Yay! http://www.woohu.com/readcomment.php?id=611782 Mon, 27 Oct 2008 18:55:13 EDT http://www.woohu.com/readcomment.php?id=609953 So, my updates are very few and far between. I know, I suck. But I'm pretty sure that the only person who reads my journal anyway is prolly Erin. I just happened to be sitting here, playing games on the computer and listening to music when Disturbed's Remember came on. Suddenly, I was transported back to be 16 years old, lying on a blue mattress with a sheet tightly wrapped around me despite the unholy humidity of the dark room I was in. Lying in the dark, early morning, maybe 1 or 2 in the morning, with Merissa's pink Hello Kitty radio next to my head with the headphones plugged in, listening to that particular song, praying to God not to let it happen tonight, watching the sliver of light beneath the door, just waiting for a shadow to devour the small ray like so many nights before. Shivering and trembling, my niece, my innocent, beautiful niece sleeping behind me peacefully, completely not knowing what her father was capable of. It's fucked up how that shit just happens sometimes. I hardly have the nightmares anymore but random flashbacks like that completely throw me off and fuck me up. Not that anyone really cares, maybe I thought telling you all would make me feel a little better. ~I can ride my bike with no handlebars http://www.woohu.com/readcomment.php?id=609953 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 22:10:52 EDT
