Motivating My SelfLife's too short to cry all the time,  To simply exist, no reason or rhyme;  So chin up and smile, soldier, you'll live longer--  Dry your tears and let your heart grow stronger.   
Life's too short to live a lie,  Or does another lover have to die  Before you open a window, sister, and let that sun shine in?  So pack your fears, let's see that winning grin.   
Life's too short to hold your breath,  And this nostalgia will be your death.  So show me that smile, dear, and rise above,  'Cause you've still got years to laugh and love. Motivating My Self

WISHS, Ch. 38"So, how was your week, Hannah?"   
My psychiatrist was an old cougar of a woman, attractive in her own way, with curly, cherubic hair that used to be blonde, and a face with all the noble lines of the old colonial families; she could have been my Nana, if she were fifteen years older and a little meaner. The woman--Dr Howards-Dirscht was her name--was well-off, too, judging by her office; not Bishop Avenue well-off, but she dressed well and lived comfortably, which is more than my mother could ever have said about herself during her lifetime. This, too, was the first time I remember noticing any of this about the woman.    WISHS, Ch. 38

WISHS, Ch. 37Since I'd began realizing how things hand changed around me, I knew that Gerard was going to be one of the most difficult situation I would have to deal with; and that was before Holly and I...well, that just further complicated everything in my already-jumbled mind. And I'd been right, we both knew that, when I said that she couldn't break up with him. There were just no safe explanations sufficient for our steadfast friend and, not knowing that he would react as well as he did when I told him about it years later, we feared to trust him with the truth.   
And, secretly, I knew it would make Holly miserable. It wasn't as though we WISHS, Ch. 37

NaNoWriMo......nobody?

Sun Nov 1, 2009, 1:45 PM
I wasn't really social last year, and I know I don't have many folks on my buddy list, but I have a few! (Lindsay, I'm lookin' at you!!) And none of you are active! Is nobody doing NaNo this year, besides me? :(

Sweetie, i miss you; and haven't spoken to you in a while. I just finished Netherwhere (good book, not earth shattering, but worth a look if you have some free time. Read American Gods first; much better book by the same author); and then picked up the graphic novel of the story, and it made me think of you. I. Have. To. See. You. Like.... a physically, all consuming need! I haven't seen you hugged you teased you chatted with you vented with you or just stayed up tell ungodly hours making WILD conjectures about probably unrelated entities that i still hold to vigilantly today. Im coming home on the 17th; and I can't get to you soon enough. Lets go for coffee, or a beer, or a big tall frozen hot chocolate, or a big tall frozen strawberry daiquiri. What ever your spart-e-lisious heart desires hun. I really REALLY miss you =( I'm -this- close to watching avatar; cause i suddenly and poinently miss you that much. Sorry, i always miss people most just before i see them *side note, i miss liz too =(* and im SO close to seing you and its been SO long =( longer than anyone else i give a shit about. So, lets see eachother, hell, ill stand around parade square moon walking § in my boxers if you want, lets just DO something. <3

§ Individual ability to moon walk may be serious impaired by a chronic, congenital inability to walk backwards in a manner reminiscent of frictionless gliding. No guarantees of moon walking available at this time or any future times.
