keep your enemies close

3 months into the year and I've already managed to remove people from my life and add even fewer. After some thinking in the shower I came to realize that I should have stopped talking to a certain person a very, very, very long time ago. Let's call her LM aka Loud Mouth.
Example #1 - My mum and I were in a fairly severe car accident which resulted in my being unable to work for 3 months and then a bunch of physical therapy after that. So I inform the work the next day of the accident, they send flowers and I get a few phone calls. LM calls me a couple times and says she's going to come see me. (I happened to be in between apartments when the accident happened so I was staying at my parents at the time which was are 40 minutes away from work.) Anyways, LM says she going to come down on Wednesday after lunch. Since I haven't seen anyone outside my family and doctors I was really looking forward to it. Wednesday comes and goes, she doesn't bother to call or return my calls for several weeks. She was too "busy." Um, you update your myspace every time you breathe so don't lie.
Example #2 - I have a stomach condition that has required several emergency room trips. My second trip occurred the day before we were supposed to go pick out the bridesmaids dresses. I spent all day at the hospital and when I got home I called to find out what time it was happening and where. We were having lunch first and then going to pick out the dresses. At the hospital I had Morphine put into my IV and I was pretty out of it from it. Since I knew I was not going to be able to eat much of anything I asked it it was cool if I just came for the dresses part. LM said it wasn't a problem. So the next day I wake up still out of it and head out to the bridal store, halfway there I get lost and have to call for directions. She answers and informs me that she changed things around and they're almost done picking the dress and about to leave for the restaurant. Awesome. I love that you left me out even though I spoke to you not even 14 hours ago.
There have been many other things. Her dating my male best friend and screwing up his life. Calling me a liar if favor of a guy who is a well known ass. Telling people secrets that I told her. Blowing me off when she comes to town and still expecting to willingly shell out $300 bucks for a dress. etc.
Honestly it was really stupid of me to remain friends with this person for so long. Kinda pathetic really.

One Confession:

I want to be content with my life but that will never happen if I never leave my house.

i'm not your boyfriend!!

iI really really hate those new tic tac commercials, they're horribly annoying. I digress, both of the previous boys mentioned on said blog have gone the way of the dodo bird. The first one by my choice, i deserve so much better than someone who acts like he's ashamed of me & doesn't know (or care to know) anything about me. The second guy, well I really have know idea what happened, to the point it went from omg you;re so awesome to "I'm sorry do I know you?" Weirdness. So after dealing with a ton of health issues, both mine & my families, i've pretty much gotten an idea of how to control my illness. It's not always fun or pretty but at least I'm starting to know what to avoid.
With the new year I have also removed some people from my life that we're not having a positve effect on it. Just because you were once friends with someone doesn't mean that you're always going to be friends with them. Sometimes you just outgrow people & you no longer have anything in common with them. Which is going to be something that I'm going to work on this year, I need to surround myself with people who I have stuff in common with & who care about me. So while I've removed some people I've added some others. He's funny, smart, adorably cute & actually seems to care about me. Not in a love way, it's way way way too soon for that but it's nice to have someone concerned about me when I'm not doing so good. The age difference doesn't bother me or him apparently & he's already had me out to meet his friends. It's pretty nice.

dammit janet

so i've been gone for almost a month & thought someone missed me but apparently i was wrong. we made plans for today & now amazingly he's MIA. dammit. this is what i get for thinking that i actually had a shot at a normal relationship. me = dumbass.

mine is an evil laugh!

so i'm still unsure as to where i stand with the boy. spent saturday night & most of sunday with him & i'm still confused. i still feel horrible & do not want to work at all. i was going to vent a lot but now i'm just feeling too blah to do anything. everything is blah.

typical

so i make plans with someone & then proceed to get ready & do all my errands only to be left sitting here. all ALONE. no phone call, no email, no text, no nothing. to think i left early last night so i'd look good. what a waste.
but on the bright side, cute comic guy was there last night & there was eye contact. nothing more but i think there could have been but i have no balls what so ever. let 'em come to me. hopefully at least he found me cute.
as for stupidhead guy, at least i came out of it with an entire series of graphic novels. thats gotta count for something right?
