It is not a bad idea to get in the habit of writing down one's thoughts. It saves one having to bother anyone else with them. -- Isabel Colegate

To update
Well I've been recently reminded of several things. One most importantly is the fact that this is used by many people to keep in touch with me. Of course, if you are out there you never say anything.

Another thing I've been reminded of is how lonely I am.

Yet another is how much guilt I have. Th majority of that guilt revolves around my faith. Many of you out there know about my faith and my conviction, and many of you don't. That's why I feel guilty. For those of you who do know how I feel, and think that because of that I don't struggle, I do. This is one of those times. I lied to my sister when I told her I didn't know how to help her. The way I made it through high school was my faith. Of course, that also let me down. Because of what was going on when it was my time to be a leader in my school, I felt too guilty to accept it. Because of a relationship I didn't feel like I could accept that responsibility.

Every once in awhile I get glimpses of how life could be different. I feel like there is something more out there. Right now society seems like it's in a holding pattern. The 60's, 70's, 80's, all had definitions. We came off the eighties in which the "Me" Generation exerted itself.What can we term the 90's, and what about our youth, what will we be. I'd like to think that we as a collective group are bound for something more, something great. I'd like to feel that way, I'd like it to be that way, but who knows if it will be. I've just been racking my brain because there is so many things that can be done. So many things wrong with the status quo. We could be different, and I really don't want to feel guilty about that too.

Crush
Today you crushed me
Without even knowing it
Setting me free
Knowing that it would never fit

I somehow turned a 6.5 hour shift today into a 10 hour shift. Of course that entailed my driving to Big Rapids. What better to get paid for than to drive because someone was too stupid to order enough of something.

I just bought this CD today. I think it's awesome. After what happened, if you couldn't tell, I needed to some anger relief. What better way to do it than to embrace the lyrics of Metallica on their new Album St. Anger? But it in stores today. No, really, I got it at Rite Aid. Except for the fact that all the f***'s and sh**'s are bleeped out, guess it isn't too bad. OF course I could never stand something like, oh, Everlast being edited. Mostly because he puts the best vocal harmonies on the words they would choose to edit out. Like in "What It's Like" if you've ever heard the unedited version, the word whore in the verse "she gets some static walkin' through the door, they call her a sinner, they call her a whore." There is an awesome vocal harmony on that word.

I feel like there will come a day when I need to confront myself and be honest about my life. I guess we all make choices and I have made mine, but it does feel isolated sometimes.

I especially like this new Metallica album because of the title track, St. Anger. He repeats the verse "I'm madly in anger with you." I completely understand that. I've been in anger with someone before. It's deeper than love. It is so far gone from love, and twisted. It's almost evil, evil love. Love that doesn't deserve to exist, and yet it holds on more than love itself.

I didn't realize that it would affect me quite this much. I honestly thought that there might be something there. I never even considered, even though I should have. She mentioned him, and it's a weight of a thousand pounds of feathers. Or a ball of wax that I was trying so hard to shape as it dripped down onto the roof of the cavern. Knowing full well that I couldn't control exactly where every bead of melting wax went, but confident that I could fashion it a way to my advantage. And with those two little words, is it one, or is it hyphenated? I'm not sure. This beautiful mold that I worked so hard for. I labored in my mind for hours upon end. Just trying to orchestrate everything just right. Trying to make that figure something her and I could both enjoy. Then with that one little phrase, it was released from it's hanging point. That one solitary grip that it had, that kept the despair from me, it let go. All I could do is watch it. Watch it fall to the floor of the cave, and shatter in a million pieces.

I just wanted to say Merry Christmas. I also wanted to confess my undying love to you. You don't know who you are, but I'll be your Santa Baby. Actually, I love you all. So, a Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night.
