I'd conjure up the thought of being gone, but I'd probably even do that wrong. I try to think about which way. Would I be able to, and would I be afraid?
- - - - -
The next time I begin to glow radiantly and smile and rant about how friggin' awesome my day was, I need one of you to slap me across the face and tell me to shut my fucking mouth.
Because that's usually when awesome clouds over into horrible and I get 4am phone calls from a voice with a lot of yelling and accusing to do and, apparently, very little time.
And here I sit, clutching my new little MAC compact, eyes wide, heart racing, begging the attention of the shadows on my wall, saying, "It was my birthday. I got this for my birthday. Something was good, wasn't it? Yes. Good. Something was. This. For my birthday! Right? My birthday? ..right? ..good?"
The shadows, they ignore me.
But at least they don't accuse me.
You know, I fucked up once before and man it was one seriously impressive fuck-up, I'll admit. But do you really think I'm that stupid to do it again?
Fuck eggshells. I walk on broken glass.
And you'd think I'd do it again..?
Do you?
I mean really, do you?
Because my feet are pretty bloody but I SUPPOSE I can mash my face into it as well, if that's what your recipe for self-assurance calls for.
Hell, I'll even chew it.
No. I don't know what I'm supposed to be proving.
Or if I ever had anything to prove at all.
I guess I'm just really into selling myself short.
I mean, obviously; I keep running the same circles after you, don't I.

I am very blessed. I have a boyfriend who loves me (and lets me sleep and makes me bagels with cream cheese and turkey (when I don't feel well and when he thinks it sounds disgusting)) and whom I love. I have a family that despite my coming home from a semester in Europe and immediately moving out, still loves me.
I am blessed because I had two Thanksgivings. And I will have two Christmases.
I talked to one of the new student workers today. His father lost his factory job and his mother lost her greenhouse job. Downsizing. He had Spaghetti O's for Thanksgiving. In his dorm room. He says Christmas doesn't look too great either.
I left work crying.
I've always had a Christmas. I've always had a Thanksgiving. No matter how poor my parents said they were that year. I can't imagine not having one. But this kid did. This kid will.

Made it through November.
For the most part I wish I could say that I did it by myself but I know that isn't true. Luke helped a lot.
I am done being homebound now... It actually didn't help me at all to keep myself locked up in here but going out would have only made me feel worse.
I miss my friends.

I'm still not content with the way things have worked out.
fuck it dude, shits over.
If you don't stand for nothing I can't really stand behind you
Who knew you withdrew your point of view
I lost mine, you cry and whine all the time
And I cant stand aside or anywhere near you
I'd get in check, you're a wreck, no respect,
In effect you elect me to fuckin' hate you
I'll break you down on the ground, I've found
You're a clown, I'm around, you want war? I'll take you
Stand aside, take a ride, I won't try, you're a lie, my lyrical lesson will teach you
So take a stand if you can, my man, go where I stand, I'll hold my land
But in the real world you get squashed and then stung
Get hit bitch, slit, aw then you get hung
in a fantasy all day long, it must be so fun being so fucking dumb

Dear Finn,

You were meant to be a birthday gift. And you were. But the most adorable, personable, outspoken birthday gift in the world.
You listened to me bitch, nodding and tilting your head to the side when my voice dipped into a sad pitch, making me smile. And when I'd raise my voice, you'd bark for emphasis, always on my side.
You always hogged the big, red pillow and sometimes I'd nudge you just to hear you grunt at me. Your little personal, 'fuck you.'
TOTALLY my puppy.

My world imploded and you didn't care. We were still BFFs and that's all that mattered. You lived for my arrival each day, and reveled in your outside potty breaks that turned into hour-long snow games. Pretty soon, I did too.
So why didn't you wake up?
Teardrop on a fragile eyelash, she's looking like a dream.
Hoping for some understanding, an answer, or at least
cunning words, a single sentence, to restore her heart:
aching since the day I left her, crossing lonely seas.
Why did Alex and Casey have to dig you a grave that I, still, feel was too big for you? Five weeks, little man, and then you were gone.
I'm not mad, I just feel left behind.
I feel a little pathetic writing all of these goodbye letters to you, Isaiah, and his brother/sister.
I haven't moved your food or water. In fact, the pieces you stashed around my our room are still there, neatly piled like you left them.
I miss you.
I wish things were good again. I wish Carlie wasn't a cheating liar and I wish Derek was happy. I wish Desi and I could still be buds.

But nothing ever works out the way you plan, right Raych? You just have to roll with the punches and make sure you dodge the particularly bad ones. After awhile, you learn the ropes. You learn how to see through those black eyes, how to draw air into your aching chest, and how to suture your own gashes - even the ones all the way in your back.
I wish none of us had to be so ruthless. So selfish. So solitary.
But that's what it takes, right?
Because Life has become War.
A war where babies stop breathing in their mama's arms, and puppies with one white-tipped ear don't wake up.

Seriously?
Like, for real, man?
Is my life some fucking joke?!
Because you know, nothing can go right for more than two consecutive days.
Where the hell have I been, how did I miss so much, and when the fuck did refusing to lie make me an abnormal person?
If you want to cheat on your boyfriend, that's your prerogative, but don't ever ask me to cover for you.
You know - for future reference.
I'm not so mad about losing a 'friend' over something like that. Thankfully my morals are strong enough to withstand a night of threats and getting out of the car, and sitting at a deserted gas station at 3am, and frozen driveway screamfests.
Thankfully.
But coming home to find my birthday puppy dead?
Come on.
It's not even my BIRTHDAY YET. Which means I have three days to find a desolate cave in which to barricade myself. I can't take anymore.
I feel bland and everything-less. Ambition, love, comfort, inspiration, sleep, feeling. Kind of like a rock left to the waves of the relentless sea. I'm losing my features and feel so bland.
At least inside my head.
He wasn't even five weeks old.
He would have been, today.
Just like Isaiah being 5 months.
That just seems to be my number.
Nothing is what I thought it would be and nobody is who they swore they were.
Which is all well and good, really. It's fine.
I just need a break. I need some air. I need to be held until I fall asleep.
I need to figure out what I'm doing so wrong.
I've worked so hard to keep out of the masquerade and be real with people. I put honesty first. I do everything with passion and thought. So why am I always the one called crazy? emotionless? a liar?
I keep wishing my son and Finn would wake up.
Or that I will.
Because this has honestly become a nightmare.

Norah Jones and Life
I have fallen head over heels for the lovely Norah Jones. I wouldn't call it an obsession, however I do not think this is healthy at all. I rarely am able to get my hands on an album that I can listen to in its entirety, let alone a complete discography!
I am going to make it a point to update this journal more often.
Since I have done everything but be diligent this thanksgiving break, tomorrow will be a day full of homework.
