It's been awhile since I updated.

I talked to my dad's wife/girlfriend. They went to Houston for Katrina. I'm not certain i fthey went there before or after. She has a really strong Vietnamese accent that I'mk not use to. Sometimes I barely understand my dad much less a lady I don't ever talk to. But I am happy they are ok. I've begun to come to terms that my relationship with that man will never be normal. All I can do is hope for his and his new family's good health and try to be a better person without him.

My mother is still trying to get out of the new orleans area. She is even considering moving near my grandmother in Bendale, Mississippi. Which all I can say is, ok. I haven't lived at home for more than a few months in about 6 years, due to school and moving to Florida last December yet I feel lost. Like my home is no longer there. Even though I've fought to get as distant from there as I could. With Genevieve gone and in Oklahoma and my mom wanting to go... There's no safe place.

I'm having a halloween party and am going to be Marilynn Monroe. My costume is almost done. I just have to do the hem and rig the back and done! And then I will work on Lyric's costume. Genevieve has the most unique child that wants to be Totoro for halloween. Not anything normal, Totoro. Who is totoro you ask?

No it's not the little girl. It's the gray blob. Yeah.. That's right, my neice wants to be a blob. And I feel compelled to make it. Mostly because I can't be there like a good godmother should and also because I have a sewing machine. SO why not? It makes me excited anyway. It also made me call Gen and tell her that if she has another child with Justin, she better not make his sister the godmother. It's either me or her friend Darrah, and fuck, who needs a godfather, it can be me and darrah. A little nuts but really.

Things are good... Better..
