Reading of the Minutes

Ang and Pat - Welcome to "The Short Stories that Make up my Life".
Poisoned by your students, is that true?

MaryCollin - He got both 'Fat and Bald', thought I would still be
interested, but things are more complicated than even I can handle.
Also I still have your Drake t-shirt.

Jenna: As requested, I will be venturing off of the Plantation next
Friday night. Off of work Saturday, let the beer drinking, football
and man shopping commence. I LOVE JESUS!! ;)

Summer - Goodness do I need a midnight trip to TacoBell (does anybody
else miss Chaco-Tacos?), cleaning out the car trash in Mike DelRe's
yard and a few loud beltings of 'Crocodile Tears on the Pillow." I
can be in Huntington in 10 hours, Richmond in the give-or-take same
amount of time. I'm seriously thinking of foresaking school this fall
to transplant my happy-ass to the successionist state (or
commonwealth?) of Virginia. Women books in the Bible: Ruth-
grandmother of David and friend; Esther- saved the Jewish from
distruction; Judith- one of the wives of Esau. This subject is so
interesting, among the help group we are starting we should study
women of the Bible: Mary, Huldah, Miriam, Deborah, Priscilla, Phoebe,
Junia, ect.... btw I would appreciate it if you could please pass my
email to Holly, I don't have her address. and your potty mouth is
having a bad effect on me.

I Hate Everything!
So here goes....This week has been extremely hard. First off on
Monday evening to some extent I was regretting leaving WF. So on my
run I prayed that God take over my life and take me where I need to
be. I also asked for a sign that I was doing the right thing, you
know moving on and having left. (My moods have really taken me on an
emotional roller coaster, and it isn't even that time). So I walk in
the house and on the kitchen tv Blaise is watching the evening news -
9pm. Immediately the hair on the back of my neck stood on end, I
heard the voice and instantly I knew who was on the tv screen. The
voice was high pitched, squeeky, shrill and obnoxious. I looked at
the screen and there she was. The frizzy headed, strawberry-blonde,
snaggled toothed, incredibly large-nosed, white trash whore. Yes, it
was Lindsay. And as unchristain as it is to call her all of
those names, she was my sign from God. And yes I am asking God to
help me to stop hating her. To fill in those OOTC(out of the circle)
LF is the girl WF(william franklin) cheated on me with in the fall of
2003. I know I should get over it, but honestly I don't like any of
the girls that wf cheated on me with as much as I don't like him. So,
the tv stations repeat the story over and over and over again for the
next two days and here I am just looking at her. Trust me she is not
pretty, I use to think she was. You know she would have to be at
least prettier than I am for him to cheat. But NO, who knows how the
male brain works....she must have just been easier.... She kept
saying, "We are not bad people, we are a good family." The only thing
I could think of everytime the story came on was, "she is not a
credible witness, she is a liar and a cheat." Oh yeah, the reason why
she was on the news, her mother was held hostage by the mother's
internet boyfriend. Like I always say, "if you play with white trash,
you will get dirty." Also for those of you that don't know wf started
dating lf's younger sister bcs he couldn't have lf. Trust me, he is
the last time I step off of my pedestal to date a boy.

If rule #1 is no stepping off of the pedestal, #2: NO more special
projects. I have learned that no matter what, he WILL NOT change. #3:
no more dating the family screw up. These rules should have been
applied to all of the guys I have been interested in. I have not
even told you stories about Jason, the one before wf, that is
something that needs to be kept burried. Quick overview of Jason.
When I first start talking to a guy I use to ask three vital
questions: 1. do you have children? 2. are you or have you ever been
married? 3. have you ever been to jail/prison? If yes was answered to
any of the questions then I would be long gone. Let me just say he
lied about the answer to #3. In fact, he had just released. I have
sucker written all over my forehead, well at least naive and trusting.

So I picked something up in my room, I found another unexpected
picture. I keep thinking that all of them have been put in the
rubbermaid container. I was looking at the picture I found on Tuesday
night and I just burst into giant sobs. Thank goodness for long
distance friends that listen through the tears and can make me laugh
at myself. I have known that I have not been in love with him for a
long time, but the thing I just realized is that it just hurts
tremendously because I know that I loved him unconditionally. Daddy
keeps calling me and telling me that someday that kind of love will be
returned to me, trust me, I'm in no rush. In fact, I'm "ready to run"

Recently I have felt like I am trapped in my life, like a skipping cd,
just stuck wondering like Deana Carter, "Did I Shave My Legs for
This?". But then I think it could always be worse. I work to keep my
car in the shop, I have practically no bills, I don't have
children(wonderous miracle of having an infertile ex). So as much as
I hate everything, as the country song goes, I have a fabulous life (
and dog-gone it, people like me). Yes Tom, as patronizing as you
sounded I am a wonderful girl. :) And it is time for this girl to
take her own advice, let down my hair (to my waist now) and have 100%
Fun.

So I'll leave you with the greeting I had on my cell phone 4.5 years ago:
On Averill's birthday, this twenty-two year old hot piece of ass
is blowing out
her candles for an independently wealth male. He must be without a wedding
ring and have no children. He must be in his very late twenties
or early thirties
and at least six feet tall. Hair and eye color makes no
difference. Ear and
nose hair sprouting from the fore mentioned orifices are a big
no-no. Showering
is necessary. Players need not apply. If this describes you, then by all
means, leave you 4-1-1, otherwise let us keep looking to make this birthday
wish come true.
Some things change, some stay the same.

Keeping you in my prayers
