I have a 20GB iPod for sale on eBay, please check it out.

My new thing is driving slow. Not senile-old-person slow, but maybe 5mph over the speed limit as opposed to my usual 15-20. Better for gas mileage. Better for enojying the scenery. Better for not getting tickets.

Its funny to me how when I was trying to be a suicide girl, I didn't...

I just typed up a whole long entry and then my browser froze and I lost everything.

Most of it was worthless banter anyway.

The only part worh re-typing was this: my best friend sent me an email that just said "thank you for being my friend." And it was really touching.

I feel really lucky sometimes.

Well... my dog's surgery was successful in that they got the tumor out, however, her other test results came back today and she still has cancer..

I'm so disorganized. Everything is a mess. My room, my car, my bag, my life, all total chaos. I'm incredibly discouraged; every time I start to clean, I get so overwhelmed that I just give up. Sometimes I feel that if my room was clean and organized, everything else in my life would fall neatly into place. I can't keep living like this, but I...

today has been a weird day.
I hope it only gets weirder.

I remember 4 years ago this day sitting in my anatomy class, my senior year of high school, and the entire school was sent to the gym for a special assemby. It was horrifying and incomprehensible. My dad is a pilot and I was terrified for him. I can't believe that was four years ago. It feels like decades, even though I remember it like...

I'm really lucky to have friends who humble me every now and then. I wish more of them would do that.

My dad was supposed to go back to Iraq in December.
Now they changed it and he leaves in three weeks.
