Sunday Night

I’m back. Not in the best of spirits, but I’m home. Due to The Shocking Photo Incident of ‘08 (previous entry), I sent some emergency texts to TMG while I was gone. Guess who was waiting for ...

Major Setback

I’m in Milan. On a weird computer because mine doesn’t work in my room. I’m actually in a bar (there are computers set up here on the side) in the hotel. It’s morning here, and I hope I can ma...

Au Revoir

I want to tell you a story, but I’m so exhausted (very long day), and I now have only 4 hours to sleep before I have to get up and pack and leave Paris for Milan. 2 days in Milan and the I’ll b...

The Era Ends

It’s waaaaay past my bedtime if I want to do my awesome run at the Louvre in the morning, but I feel like writing. Today started out kinda weird (with the email and all–see previous entry), but...

Almost a Relief

…to wake up to this. I got an email from EXMS (no edits in grammar/spelling): “I hope you trip is going well. Things here in [our city] have been nice, the weather has been cooling down..alth...

Another Entry…

…that will make you want to smack me around: I have been pathetically sad the last couple of days (yes, while I should be having the time of my life on my European travels) because after EXMS c...


September 20, 2008

Obsessed.

Just back in from an almost-frosty run in Hyde Park and an even steamier, luscious shower. Oh my gawd, I did not want to get out of that heavenly warmth. Now I’m sitting on the sofa in my hote...

Here in My Hotel Room.

Just landed in London and checked into my hotel room. Trip is going well, thank you. Spent the last day and 1/2 in Copenhagen, and it was my first time there. It was lovely: Do you know what...

Just Landed in Kopenhagen

On a cramped plane bound for Copenhagen (via Frankfurt), I tap this out. This plane is freezing. And I mean teeth rattling frozen. Some nice man gave me his extra blanket, so I have three Luf...


September 11, 2008

Yes, I’m Here.*

Sorry I’ve been out of touch. But because of a very vivid dream I had maybe a couple of weeks ago, I think I’m going to have to go exclusively faves only. I dreamt that EXMS found my diary and ...

List of Complications

You knew it would get complicated, didn’t you. DIDN’T YOU??!! Why didn’t you TELLL MEEE??? (oh, right.) So much going on. So very, very much. I owe you the following things: What’s ha...

Mixed Tapes and Twitches

TMG burned a mixed CD for me and gave it to me last night. It’s the most thoughtful thing I think anyone’s given me in a long, long time. He named it “The Beauty in Ugly” and there are 18 song...

Ups and Downs

OK. Decision made. I’m NOT going the meds route unless (UNLESS!) I spiral into some kind of freakish depression where I don’t want to get out of bed or talk to people or if I can’t stop crying...


August 26, 2008

Double Dose

I’m sucking at updating lately. The dumb thing is, I know that writing helps me get things out and also helps to put things in perspective. AND it just plain makes me feel better. To me, it’s...

Things That Still….

…come in the mail: Modern Bride magazine, letters that are addressed to Mr. and Mrs. [Ginger Snap], old mail for EXMS that were from the old, …hang on the wall: …decorate the loft: …make me...


August 20, 2008

Roll With It.*

I’ve been silent, yes. Because there hasn’t been a whole lot to say that you don’t already know. And wallowing in sorrow is so, so tiring and boring. So. What’s been going on in addition to ...


August 11, 2008

I Am Not Who I Thought

No, I am not the person I thought I’d be today. I am trying really, really hard not to dwell on this as a loss. I’ve read and heard and listened to everything I can possibly get my hands on or...


August 11, 2008

New Favorite Number?


I’m still having a really, really tough time. This is the week I was supposed to marry (now 3 days away). I am searching for relief. I found this article tonight and I liked it so much, I wan...

Eye-Opening

And now. To counterbalance all the blucky schmudge, I present you with some GOOD. Whenever I’m feeling low, low, LOW, someone has always been around to keep me from simply slipping into a chas...

Sludge

I don’t know. It makes me feel icky and black to write disparaging things, but these are the things I’m going through right now, and it has to come out. I have to get it out somehow, but I jus...


…I loved him so much more than he loved me. So, so much. There’s a LOT going on in here. I just don’t have time or energy or the presence of mind to write it out just yet. * EDIT* Wait. Ju...

Some Days…

…are much better than others. Today/yesterday–not so much.


July 22, 2008

K.Y.O.*

Today’s Obligatory Blue Thought (sorry, these are gonna come out alllll over the place…until I’m done): Did you know that I’d already changed my name? Not only in my mind. Not only did I prac...


July 21, 2008

Made it to Monday

EXMS put his profile back on match.com. Still with the photo that shows 1/3 of me. Still with the bullshit about how he’s ready for a serious relationship. This time I’m not shocked, but I ca...
