Nikki

      Well, it's been a very very long time since I've updated this. I feel as though I have nothing important to really say
 anymore. This more than likely will be my last entry on here before I move on to bigger and better things, than a almost childlike online journal.

      My apartment is filled with video games, my old riding saddle from college, old guitars, a huge fender amp, a single steamer trunk, and an endless mixture of our clothes in my closet. I'm so blissfully happy at this moment it's pretty fucking cheesy I bet. Sean and I are still very much together, hence that's why all this belongings have been moved into my apartment-and the best part about it is I get to spend every damn day with him and he with me. He asked me to marry him and I very eagerly said yes. I don't think bad things when I'm around him at all, it's a welcome change. I'm not lonely anymore in my somewhat tiny apartment, calling up everyone I know and sobbing about how awful my life is..because honestly, it's not all that awful and probably never was to begin with.

      Yesterday at work, I nearly recoiled in pain when I had to ship out a dress that was going up north to Massachusettes. More specifically to right outside of Boston, where he more than likely still lives. The pain of those memories of the last five or so years have faded significantly more specifically when I stopped talking to Sean and he to me. I always thought we'd end up together, I really did. But then I realized we are too toxic for each other and no matter what it would have never worked out to our liking anyway. When I sealed up the box, I prayed silently it would be lost in transit to some foreign land and never reach it's destination. I may have stopped talking to him but I can still be vindictive when I want to be. I know he knows nothing of where I work or more than likely that the chain I work for has a store in his hometown. I just want to destroy the link between us, no matter how asenine or insignificant it is. I know that will never be until I leave my job. That day my friends, is coming as well.
 
      On that note, I am leaving this journal behind. It's served me well over the past couple of years, I will come back to it occasionally but only to read of the fun times I had long ago. I'm making new memories with friends and my fiance now, and those eventually will probably wind up on the internet at some point in time. But maybe not..who knows.

      Later.

      It's been a little bit, so I'll update even though I really don't feel like it...

      I got a new phone, it's pretty sweet. the keyboard slides out from the side of it and it makes pretty noises. It rules..

      I have a new boyfriend, and I completely and utterly adore him. He calls me everyday even when we have nothing of relevance to talk about. He tells me he's waited his whole life for me to come along, and I feel the same way-even though we've been together for such a short amount of time, for some reason it really does feel right. I'm not really used to being treated like this-usually I get treated like this for a few weeks then I'm dumped or they stop calling me. I can't really see him doing that at all. I'm almost positive that I'm in love with him, and he with me.

      There are a few shows coming up, but I'm not sure I have the money to see them all..

      I talked to Sean for the first time since my birthday today. It was odd, and I finally realized he's a selfish prick who thinks nothing but of himself. I've finally also realized that I don't love him anymore, and I think I just fell in love with the wrong guy named Sean. The guy I'm with now is also named Sean and is nothing like him. I told him I was probably coming up to Boston in March to see Dropkick play, and the idiot just assumed that I was coming up to see him. Self involved asshole..whatever. I stopped waiting for him months ago to come around, he never will. 

      Well, this is short-but I have to do dishes, maybe I'll settle in for a movie and relax :)

      I got out of work yesterday and as I'm driving my phone rings. Turns out its Sean (the kid from meg's birthday party). I was completely (and very happily) shocked that he even called me. He ended up coming over last night and we watched a movie and had a couple of drinks. I'm a happy girl because all I'm going to say is things are starting to go my way again, and that's the best thing I need right now. He'll call me tomorrow..so he says.

      It was Megan's birthday on saturday. I had a great time...

      The place her party was at was surprisingly very easy to find. It was a dive bar called LA's. A handful of people showed up (Including Chris..yes THAT Chris, the idiot I hooked up with and then who never called me again. More on him in a minute), and as soon as I showed up Johnny picked me up and carried me across the parking lot, but then almost purposely dropped me in a puddle after I told him to put me down, Good times..

      So I ended up getting drunk. It was funny. Meg loved my present to her (a gift card to Sephora), and I ended up playfully fighting with her best friend Sean (ha funny right?) over the rivalry of the Red Sox and Yankees.

      Chris ended up being a douche and putting sugar in my hair, like a fucking 4 year old. Real mature, dumbass. But karma got him back in the end and he got drunk and tried to do an irish jig outside the bar when it was raining and the wood patio was slick and he did a very nice faceplant on the ground. I laughed my ass off, only to have myself fall as well-but I was much more graceful about it hehe. In my drunken stupor though, I sat on my purse and ended up fucking up the screen on my cell phone because apparently my fat ass broke it hahaha. I never thought I'd see the day. I just remembered now that I also tried to steal a fork, much to Sean's amusement and delight. I'm just a crazy klepto like that.

      I ended up making out with Sean too. God, what is wrong with me? I really hope Meg didn't scare him away because I like this kid. He's pretty cool, and nice. But I've said that about everyone else and where has it gotten me? That's right, nowhere. I doubt he'll call, even though once again (like the others) said he would. I'm not buying that shit anymore. Whatever.

      I'll end this on a good note-John bought a drum set again. I literally freaked out at work when he texted me that. I was like 'thank god you did! It's about damn time again!' haha. silly kid. 

      Later.

      So I just got a message from Billiam on my myspace saying my dear boys from RI are getting the band back together!! Gahhhh, this just totally made my day :) I had been telling John for MONTHS to get back together with Billiam and Larry-but he always said 'no. it's done, it's going to probably stay that way.' Hopefully all the times I went to see them and spent said times whining that the band should get back together paid off. Yayyyyy.

      I know that when they do another show again they will probably ask me to come, and I know I will. This will be a neverending cycle in my life, I know this. I'll show up, it'll be awkward for about 2.5 seconds-then everything will be fine once I get some booze in my system. I will probably jump all over Billiam and Larry for not seeing them again for months and months on end. John will probably have some other stupid girlfriend hanging on him that looks suspiciously like me and I'll probably sit on his lap again and cause them to break up-a fact that I am STILL proud of after all this time haha. I actually went on urbandictionary.com a while back and typed in my name and this came up:

A hot piece of ass who tends to wear glasses and has extremely bouncy playful hair. She gives the best advice and can be looked at as a "sex goddess". She has a strange obbsession with horror movies and fucking certain males even when she has a boyfriend.

See?? Some things don't change. I'm looking forward to seeing a live show again guys! hahaha

      Well, Justin never called..*shrug*. This is getting to the point where it's almost depressing, I don't do anything with a guy, and they still don't call me. Good thing Russia Kate and I are going out again tomorrow night after work to Sea Bright. We're going to do Kareoke or however it's freaking spelled. I told her I will not go home with some random guy, wake up the next day in his bed, and leave with nothing but pajamas and a burned CD, haha. I've never done kareoke before, so I'm a little nervous-I'll probably be fine once I have a drink or shot in me heh.

      Not too much else is going on, just been working and the like. I'm honestly really sick of Matt. It's always the same thing with him-the same phone calls, the same way he talks to me. He has no backbone anymore, and it's kind of annoying. He won't stand up for me, well actually let me rephrase that. Let's say that I go off to get something to eat with a guy or something. He'd just be all 'ok hun. that's great, have a good time.' He wouldn't even say no, I mean it's a good thing-but it means that I have the power in this relationship. And given my track record, I will abuse that power very very soon. Basically I can more than likely flat out cheat on him and he'll forgive me. I don't want to be like that anymore, and I don't want to be in a relationship with someone that accepts that. Ha, you know it's days like this that I do miss being with John, at least he would threaten anyone that even looked at me (not physically, but just trash talking-it's pretty funny, and it lets you know they at least care about you to defend you).

      Loads of good shows coming up. I'm trying to take the rest of my vacation days off to go see Bayside for three days straight in November. It's looking like that's definitely going to happen, I'm so excited! Sevendust is going to be around on Matt's birthday, but I have a feeling that he won't go to see them. I remember last year I wanted to take him to see Bouncing Souls at Toad's Place, but of course his stupid friends had to go and we completely missed the show altogether. I wasn't too thrilled about that. Don't have too much else to say, I guess.

      Later.

      I'm so hungover today it's crazy..went to a club last night. I met a boy. He's so utterly adorable...

      Last night I made plans with the newest girl to join my work, Kate (I call her Russia Kate cause you know-she's russian haha) to go out to a club in Trenton after I got out of work. I freaked because I didn't have anything nice to wear and Kate told me that this place is nice so I bought a cute bubble dress from work, and silver heels to go with it. I get to the club, and everyone is dressed normal. UGH I overdressed! haha, it was alright though-other than the fact that I had to keep yanking the dress up and my bra was sliding down my ribs. 

      I had one too many shots to drink for sure. There was a local band playing called the Benders. They were actually a good cover band, and I immediately set my sights on their drummer because he was cute (god, seriously-what is it about them that I absolutely love? haha). Well, Kate goes up to him and does a little talking. I'm over by the bar hiding my face because I'm kinda mortified that she's trying to hook me up with him since I'm a chickenshit and won't do it myself. Well, I glance over at his hand and of course there's a fucking ring on it. Damn! Oh well.

      We're dancing and taking crazy ass pictures, then Kate sees this guy and starts talking to him. Turns out he's a ballroom dancer like her and they go off and start dancing and making out and junk. I'm there and start talking to his poor friend-who looks completely out of place. He notices my Bayside tat and asks about it, completely stunned that I even have one-let alone that I know who the band is. Turns out he's really into them too and we start to talk about music and cars and everything else. I can't remember a lot because I was so fucking wasted at this point. I did ask him (before I got extremely hammered) if I could crash at his place and save me the hour ride home I had to make after the club closed. He had no problem with it, so I proceeded to get completely obliterated. Haha, I didn't mean to, they completely snuck up on me.

     I wake up this morning, and the room is still spinning. He leaves to go to work and says he will come back on his lunch break to see if I'm alright. His name is Justin and he owns his own house. He rides motocross, and he loves my music. He has a freaking BMW (actually 2-he's selling the other one) and an old motorcycle. He's a financial advisor for some company by princeton. He went to Penn State and graduated. So anyway, he comes home at noon and I'm still half passed out in his bed (in a tshirt he gave me last night because he actually had respect for me and didn't try anything) and he asks how I'm feeling.

      "How much water have you had since I left?" he asks me. I point to the water bottle that's pretty much empty from the night before he gave me so I didn't get sick. "You silly girl. You need more, you want some aspirin too?" Holy shit. where the hell was this guy a year ago before I met Matt?? haha seriously. I'm basically a stranger to him and he lets me stay in his house while he's at work, doesn't try to sleep with me or anything the night before, and takes care of me after I'm hungover. I literally looked at him and said "You are completely adorable".

      He burned me the new Bayside CD (which is damn good) and is begging me to go to the Philly show to see them and meet up with him during it. I may consider it...

      I once again pulled the 'well you're not going to call me' card. I told him that too, he looked at me and said 'You like good music and you know about racing and cars. You're a very interesting girl, and cool as hell. Don't think I'm not going to call you cause I will.' I stole his pajamas too because I didn't want to walk outside in my dress.

      I hope so..

      Later.
 

      Never truer words spoken than from Corey Taylor (lead singer of slipknot and stone sour in case you did know that). I have a lot on my mind lately. Mostly about the trust level of my friends, and who I consider a friend still. Let's run down the quick list of these:

Sean-still kind of a friend even though I never hear from him anymore. I'm starting to finally fall back out of love with him

John/Billiam- Again in the same category as Sean, for the most part

Meg/Johnny-Absolutely my friends, they are awesome and stick up for me and by me

Annie- My sweet girl, she is always my friend

Katy/Joe- Again, even though recently I have not spent a ton of time with them-they are without a doubt good friends

Matt-First and foremost my best friend in the entire world first and my boyfriend second-I can't imagine being without him ever.

      There are others that I do talk to, but this is the hardcore group at the moment that I have. Notice that I left one name off that list. Sandy.

      So, where do I begin? I understand that people have their own lives (especially when a newborn baby boy is thrown in the mix), but to simply not call at all- even on my birthday I don't understand. I tried to talk to her a couple days ago, and I have NEVER EVER felt like I did when I hung up that phone. I felt worse than I did before I spoke with her. There was tiredness in her voice, yes. But there was also the distinct fact that she did NOT want to speak with me. Then I have to hear about it (through other people and not from she herself) how she is talking all this shit behind my back about how I'm taking away all her friends? Are you fucking serious? No really. Are you fucking serious?!

      She is fucking 27 years old, married and now has a beautiful baby boy. FUCKING ACT LIKE IT! Don't pull this high school bullshit of crying to everyone else that you are losing all your friends. Do something about it! I did not steal her friends, most of them are both of our friends. She was pregnant and on bed rest. How could she go and see people? And furthermore- even if she didn't want me to meet these people...how about not introducing us to each other? Christ, it's fucking ridiculous. I shouldn't have to defend who I fucking hang out with. It's pathetic. And she really needs to stop acting like she really gives a shit about me because she obviously doesn't. And I'm fine with that, because now we can stop pretending like we have anything in common anymore. Just don't pretend to be my friend, be a fucking grownup and end it.

      I'm hurt more than angry. I really am. I thought she was never like this, I never thought she could be like this. I am losing one of the best friends I've had for the better part of almost 6 years. I've known this girl since I was 19 years old. Hopefully one day she'll realize what she's lost, and if she keeps acting like this-she'll lose a hell of a lot more.

      Sorry if this hurt anyone. Later.

      So my vacation time is up. I went back to work today and the fun week that was my birthday week is over..

      So on my birthday exactly at 12:01, guess who texted me happy birthday? Sean did. I seriously wanted to cry, it made me so happy. Nobody else with the exception of Matt calling me actually at like 12:10 said happy birthday to me. Unfortunately, I haven't heard from Sean since. *sigh* of course, it figures..

      True to my own word, John nor Billiam texted me or called me to wish me a happy birthday. Assholes. I can't believe I actually thought these people were my friends. I'm finally starting to realize that now. It's very sad, but I needed to see it for myself I guess. Haha, on a funny note-I called Sabrina at like 8 in the morning all happy and junk yelling happy birthday to her too.

     "Thanks, can I go back to sleep now?" she asked me..oops. Haha, the poor thing. I woke her up accidentally.

      Present wise-it rocked. I got money from most of my family so I can actually continue to live here and pay my bills haha. My mom got me The Black Parade is Dead DVD. I knew I was getting it, we watched the whole thing as soon as I opened it. She loves it, and definitely misses them being around. But I told her they were on tour for two years, they need a break haha. I went to Hope Gallery in New Haven to look up some artists to maybe start on my half sleeve. I ended up going in a completely different direction than what I originally wanted, so I suppose I'm making my right arm my 'pin up' arm. I already have a nice Olivia painting of Bettie Page picked out that I want so. The guy who's gonna do it does amazing work too. BUT, I have to wait till January for my appointment. I was super bummed, but I think it'll be worth it in the end.

      I went out with Matt, and Renee after not seeing her for almost a whole damn year. I miss her so much and she considers me one of her best friends so I think that's awesome. I had a few drinks and relaxed for the most part. She introduced me to her friend Ted, who is cool as fuck. I wish they would get together but he says they are just friends for right now. Her friend Jamie turned 21 at midnight on thursday too so we celebrated that too. It was so much fun. 

      Friday I ended up going to New Hampshire with Matt. I went to Loudon for the nascar race. Holy shit I had so much fun! I've never been to a big time race like that before and the seats were perfect where we could see like 95 percent of the speedway. We stayed for all the action until sunday night too so I got to see everything. There were so many people, and I took a ton of pictures. Matt got a nice shot of Richard Petty too. Yeah, he was down below the grandstands talking to a couple of the security guards and I spotted him. Matt took a picture as I waved to him and he waved right back..but after that I left him alone. Didn't want to draw too much attention to him.

      That was pretty much it. I spent most of the time with my family and Matt so, I had a pretty good birthday.

      Later.

      My birthday is on Saturday. Wow, I'm gonna be 23. I guess that's an accomplishment...

     So, after my little blow up in my last entry-I did end up talking to John about this whole thing. He told me the girl is a friend of his who does like him, but he doesn't want her like that. I believe him so..the only thing I have to say about this whole deal is my birthday present from them would be for them NOT to forget my birthday and say happy birthday at least.

     Megan (who I took to Bamboozle a looong ass time ago in may) called me up the other night and invited me out with her John (haha we have to designate John's as ours-kinda funny) and their friend Chris. I didn't have too much to drink, and they kept trying to hook me up with him.

    It worked. If only for the night..

    Whatever. 
  
     Don't really have much else to talk about. Some cute guy showed up at work today to deliver flowers to my boss because her other business is running a flower shop. I tried hitting on him a little bit, dunno if it worked. 

     Later.

       Well, I just discovered something. I'm officially an idiot. Oh, and that I hate two people that I thought were my friends. 

      Jair talked to me today..thought things were alright and all that. He asked me how life was going and all that, he told me he found an apartment up north..oh and that he has a girlfriend.

     YEAHHHH. What the fuck?! Apparently the whole "well I'm not ready for a relationship" thing was BULLSHIT. I guess it was just "well I'm not ready for a relationship with you" but someone else will do just fine. Asshole. I uninstalled AIM and deleted his number out of my phone..finally. 

      The other one is the one I never ever would have expected. 

      John and I are no longer friends. We are no longer speaking. Apparently that didn't stop him from posting pics of his new girlfriend on his myspace though. Which I just so happened to stumble upon about 10 minutes ago. I am ready to fucking murder him for that. How the fuck could he do this to me? He was NEVER like this (Ironically enough back in the day-I was). How the hell could I have known he had a new girlfriend, he never talks to me anymore. Then the one time he did (which was like three weeks ago) he told me how sorry he was that we hadn't spoken in a while and that it had nothing to do with anyone else! Yeah? REALLY?? Pictures don't lie FUCKER!!! Seriously, where the fuck do I find these people? As soon as I saw the pics, I couldn't breathe. I started crying hysterically because I really thought he wasn't capable of this. I'm debating whether or not just to not speak to him at all, or to text him a final time telling him to go fuck himself. 

      I'm going to go blast Taking Back Sunday's "Liar" now. It should make me feel better. 

      Later.

      This past weekend, I had the whole weekend off (Don't know how that happened). So, what did I decide to do? Travel all the way up to Boston (like an idiot). I'm assuming most will know how this fiasco turned out..

      After months of reluctance, I finally gave in and decided to go see Sean. I actually grappled with the decision for almost an hour too, which I've never done before. I realize now that I should have listened to my brain for once and just not gone at all. But in the end, I ended up going all the way up there. Sat in the square for an hour (yes I really did this) all for nothing. I texted him a bunch of times and left a message or two. Nothing. It did occur to me that I should have just gone to his house (which I was less than a mile away from), but I didn't for some reason. Well, after an hour-I got just plain tired of waiting and angerily turned around and drove home. Yes, I drove three hours back to CT, then back here. I was beyond pissed for the entire ride. I swore that boy up and down, that I would never see him again-that he hadn't changed. Well, I call up Matt to bitch (because I always bitch to matt about my boy problems even though I know he doesn't want to hear about them) and come online. Well, look what I found..a message from Sean about how he left his phone at the practice space him and his friends share for their band. He didn't have a key, so of course he didn't have his phone on him. Oh, AND he was home! 

      Why didn't I just go to his house? Because I'm an ass-that's why! He also has this way of making me feel super badly about not just going to his house too, but of course it's in a passive aggressive way so it makes me feel worse. Go me. He thinks we won't see each other for another 7 or 8 months now. At this point..maybe it's better that way. 

      Hopefully matt and I are going to the Rancid show this weekend in the city. Yay for shows! 

      Oh and, just in case my curse isn't bad enough coming out of Mass. The Rhode Island curse resufaced as well last night. 

      John texted me finally after not speaking to me for no reason for two fucking months. He said that it wasn't fair to either one of us and it was just better this way..sure. Sounds like someone's been taking lessons from Sean with being a prick about the whole thing. I texted him back saying it wasn't fair and that he needs to tell me the truth on why he suddenly stopped talking to me. I have a feeling it has something to do with him fucking someone else, but that didn't work out-so now he's come back to me. Yeah, fuck you-that's not going to happen. 

      Ugh, whyyyy do I do this to myself. I'm so fucking done with these idiot guys.

      Life is actually normal for once. I'm not hating my job anymore (because my bosses FINALLY understand that I should be there during the week so shipment doesn't get backed up), my friends are good, and I'm pretty content with everything. 

      I'm no longer mad at John or Jair. I see no point. It still stings when I do think about John, but then I realize who the hell was I kidding trying to make a relationship work from nearly three states away? Jair, well..he's just a prick so I guess he got what he deserved from me.

      Sandy's baby is due in almost two months. It's crazy how fast time flies...

      Not stressing out about a whole lot anymore. I like this-it's nice. Stephen and I are taking things rather slowly too, which is a nice change of pace for me. He brought me dinner last night from this party the firehouse he works at (and is now currently the president of), which was pretty nice of him. He actually got that promotion yesterday so we hung out to celebrate. For some reason, this kid is very different from the usual assholes I date. Maybe part of it is that I do regret what happened between us when we first met. He isn't normally like that and I'm trying to be a better person here. And he dropped the 'd' word this morning so I suppose we are dating, but I guess nothing is official at this point. Eh, it's cool. I'm not really in a rush or anything. 

      I texted Sean this very long message a little bit ago saying that if he really does love me that he needs to prove it. It's not that I don't believe him, it's just I've been down this road with him already twice and he's fucked me over each time. I really don't want to go through that again. I think that he's used to us being just conveinent for each other and I really hope that he's changed. If he hasn't I will never ever fucking forgive him. That boy has been my entire life for the past almost 5 years and if he does this to me again, I more than likely will get incredibly angry and hurt and physically violent. Maybe both of us are just still caught up in the delusion of what the other was back in college, and believe that it can still work. As much as I miss him to death, as much as I'd do absolutely anything for him-I really don't think I can bring myself to go back to him. And that's saying a hell of a lot since I thought of nothing but him for all these years. We'll see...

      Later.

      So, he did call me last night.

      Interesting..very interesting

       Last night, I'm working with Katy and she tells me she commissioned. She wanted to celebrate, I suggested we go back to Asbury Lanes to see what's going on there for the night. So we get out of work and she calls me later to let me know that there's a dj but no bands or anything. We still went because there was no cover or anything so that was cool. Katy and Joe told me their friend Dave was going to make a cameo, because he was up from Florida for a few days and wanted to hang out. Dave is awesome. He's super skinny and super out of the closet. The first words he said to me were "Hi, I'm dave. I like hot boys." I laughed and said "really? sweet me too. We're gonna get along fine". 

      We get there and start drinking. I'm feeling pretty good, but of course lonely as hell when I start to drink. I say this to Katy, who has told me that in about a half hour Dave's younger brother Stephen is going to show up. She laughs and says in response to my "katy, I need to get laid" that "don't worry, he'll be here soon". He shows up and by this point I'm feeling very relaxed. 

      Then joe comes back with Kamikazee shots...

      Oh fuck, this is not gonna be good...

      Basically that shot did me in. I was obliterated by the time we left. I was so wrecked I spilled my drink on myself and the couch I was sitting on at one point. I played it off like I didn't do it. But my pants told otherwise haha. I left my car at katy and joe's and I don't feel like driving all the way back, so Steve offers to drive me home. 

      Basically, Steve came home with me. God damn, I'm definitely reverting back to my college days. Don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing..Things were cool this morning, he bought me donuts from DD even though I didn't want them and I was hungover as fuck. I thought I was going to throw up several times this morning, thank god that didn't happen. I don't remember a lot from last night but maybe that's for the best. He drove me to my car and took my number and all that. Whether or not he is going to call-I'm not all that concerned. If he doesn't-whatever I guess. I can't keep this up and expect relationships out of this shit every time. We had a good time, I guess that's all that matters. Although, before I left-he said he would call me tonight. I grinned and shook my head. "You think I won't? Oh, you think this was a one night thing."

      "Yup," I said. I guess that's the mentality I have now. I'm not expecting anything I suppose. He shook his head at me and grinned.

      "I'll call you tonight."

      We'll see...

     Well, life is semi going down the tubes again..sucks. Let me explain..

     John has completely stopped talking to me for no apparent reason. I texted him a bunch of times but got no response. It still hurts-I didn't do anything to him at all. I haven't seen him in almost two months and haven't talking to him in about a month. If he really fucking cared he would have found some way to contact me. Like you know, through one of his friends (like billiam or someone), but no. So whatever. Fuck him. I should have known, all guys are the fucking same. 

     Jair is also gone from my life. After hanging out again for a little bit, things just went way south very quickly. I hadn't hung out with him in a while and every time we tried I was either working or he was busy-shit just got in the way. So the other night we finally hung out and about after 45 minutes of him being here, he gets a frantic phone call from his friend's girlfriend. She claims that she cut her foot on a fence or something and needs to go to the hospital. Why she calls him of all people is beyond me (doesn't this bitch have parents?), but he ends up leaving and he didn't know what to do because he didn't want me upset at him for leaving. I told him to go save her ass before she dies or something, I was pissed off anyway. Then he pulls this bullshit that he stopped talking to me the first time for this reason. So apparently he WASN'T in love with me, he wasn't ready for a relationship and still isn't. Oh ok, so he pulling that card out. Well I pulled it right back on him. I looked at him dead in the face and said 'that's fine-the only reason anyway why I hang out with you is because I know I'll get laid'. He looked like he was going to cry, it was priceless. Stupid asshole-then he says he'll make it up to me by hanging out with me the next morning before I go to work. He never showed. I texted him, he never answered. So I wrote him off too. Seriously, what the hell is wrong with me? Is there a stamp on my forehead that says 'stupid' or somethng? Why do I constantly attach myself to these fucking idiots...

      I may move when my lease is up in march. I'm not sure where I want to go-maybe back to Boston. At least there's someone up there who gives a shit about my feelings..haha.

      Sorry if this was a major bitchfest, but here's something happy-I went to MSI back in the beginning of July. It rocked. AND there's supposedly a Mest show coming up in November and then the week after that is Bayside. SOOO excited for them!
