Name that Movie
It’s just like my song lyrics game but this time it’s movies. Movies I like. Can you tell I’m bored?! MY GIRL-Feel My aura/I don’t think I’m allowed to. GLADIATOR – I knew a man once who said, “Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is smile back.”/I wonder, did your friend smile at his own death?/You must know. He was your father. AMERICAN HISTORY X-Alright, relax let me ask you a few questions./I’m not in the mood I got a lot of homework to do/Tell me some of the shit you’ve learned fuckass before I pistol whip you/Ok, I believe in death, destruction, chaos, filth, and…

The day is upon us…
So it’s about 8:30 and John is in the shower and I’m just sitting here with this knot in my stomach. My eyes welling up. It’ll be fine but suck at the same time. I’m a crier. I’m not good with goodbyes no matter who it is or how long it’ll be until I see them again. I hate this part of the journey. I don’t feel ready. But is one ever ready?! It’s about the apprehension of it all. He’s going and I’m going to miss him. I don’t sleep alone very well. But this also forces me to face the fact that I am going to be moving…

If I don’t get out of bed, can I avoid tomorrows?
So the hub-bub of the last few weeks has died down and now I wish it hadn’t. It forces me to realize that there are only a few short days (1.5 actually) left to spend with my husband before he’s gone. 1.5 months until I see him again. I can no longer pretend the move isn’t happening or that it is far off in the distance. I haven’t been able to focus on the moving and leaving me behind in a place I don’t really want to be since we’ve been so busy. But now, it’s all encompassing. It’s all I can think about. It’s all I dread. If I…

May 29, 2008
I had all intentions of blogging on that day or for that day but instead I worked half a day, came home & took John to the SUB, got dressed, drove John’s family to the grad, went to dinner, unpacked the van, drove Jerry to the Northside to go canoeing, and then packed into all hours of the night. So better late than never it is. This was a day many years in the making and I couldn’t believe it was time to see John walk across that stage. Once we saw his name on the grad list, Saturday the 24th, it became all the more real. It gaveus something…

Still alive
I know I’ve been awol for the past bit but for once I can say (and really mean it) that I have been too busy to sit down in front of the computer for any more than 5ish minutes at a time. It’s been a little crazy and I’m exhausted. You are lucky that I am here today…heck, it’s 7:55am on a Saturday and here I am. Must be dedicated. Or it could be that the apt. workers came to our door 20-30 minutes ago expecting the place to be empty but much to their dismay we were still here. We had intentions of getting up from our ghetto accomodations whenever…
