ouch working during the holiday must be brutal. might just see some fireworks though

im sure you had to see some fireworks. everywhere i went the last couple days people were launching them left and right

thank you for the nice comment..you are sooo nice...

yeah the 4th being on a tuesday was completely disorienting...i kept feeling like it was a sunday

yay for going to pride! i went to pride this year too and while it was a blast it was also kind of a let down because the one in columbus was bigger last year and then it was c-bus' 25 anniversary and they were going to have a kick ass parade but i couldn't get there. oh well, cleveland's was alright.

that guy at your work sounds like a doofus. the guy who burned that girl should burn and rot in hell.

you were right about things happening for a reason. the breakup was perfectly timed so that i could be here before my mom got immensely sick (today we find out if it's inoperable or not) also on the brighter side i might have a wonderful opportunity for a career advancement toward my choice of grad schools and i know my ex wouldn't move out of state for me (or do anything else that required compromise for that matter).

thanks for the perspective and kind words! i greatly appreciated it

big big hugs!
