I know it’s only been two days since I posted but for some reason it feels more like two weeks. It could have something to do with the constant string of storms or the fact that I’ve woken up at 7am for the last few days, only to fall asleep around 4am the following morning, I have no idea.
I’ve been very anxious the last few days; it’s kind of that weird feeling of everything coming together where I’m both excited, but sad about it too. I’m sure it makes no sense to you but that’s basically how it feels to me, and we all know I’ve never been one to make much sense anyway.
I’m extremely happy that my laptop will be here sometime in the next two weeks. I’m very happy my patio will be setup the way I’ve wanted it to be for the last three years. I’m very ticked off that people are on my case about things that don’t concern me, and I’m extremely upset that even with the good things, I don’t have Joe to share it with. I know it’s been two months, and there are few people who say “Get over it and move on.” because that’s just how my family works, but every day I wake up thinking about him and I can honestly say that time heals JACK SHIT.
I’m depressed and I don’t like being depressed. My guard is back up, to the point that I can literally say I trust absolutely no one and I’m sure that will offend some people but that’s just how I feel. I know the two people on earth/in spirit who I can trust whole heartedly but after that it’s kind of touch and go with me. Mixed signals have me confused, false senses of security have me ticked off, and nagging about stupid things makes me want to put my foot up someone?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s ass.
I’m purposely burying myself in my work so I can avoid speaking to certain people and thinking about Joe (which definitely isn’t working very well – at all). I don’t even really go on AIM anymore; I have no use for it. It’s nothing against anyone personally, I’m just not into it these days. My main focus is to make as much money as possible and put it into my savings account so it can grow faster and I can get the hell out of here or at least get me the means to do so.
That didn’t stop me tonight though. I went to Wal-Mart with my sister. It was my intent to get a nice new messenger bag for under $20 for my laptop. It had to be big enough to hold the laptop, mouse, router and other accessories. I found a really nice one, only mine is baby blue – not pink. It’s padded, it’s roomy, and it’s got so many hidden compartments that I almost pissed myself in excitement. By now, any regular visitor should know how easily amused I am; this bag was it. It wasn’t a bad deal either; $12.96 is a great deal on something like this. I was looking around for laptop bags/cases but they were all either too expensive or too gaudy. So, this works for me.
I still, however, managed to drop $100 in about a half hour. I know I shouldn’t have, but for the most part it was things that I needed. I made a mistake the last time I was there when I bought my shampoo, it wasn’t actually shampoo – I misread the label and got myself two $6 bottles of CONDITIONER so my going back to get the shampoo was important. I also treated myself to a box of cereal, for some reason I’ve been craving Kix and since they’re about $2 more in the super market, I figured Wal-Mart would have a good deal there, and they did :w00t:
I dropped about $50 on my sister, that’s the only reason why the bill came up as high as it did. She randomly threw shit into the cart and I never turned around to say “No” because I just don’t have the energy. I don’t have the energy to do ANYTHING these days, I’m just so warn out, you’d think I was coming down with a cold or something. It’s just my body finally giving up on me I guess. I’m still quick with zingers; I’m just having trouble saying “No” to people, which is why I’m so damn tired. I’m always working on something. For certain people I offer it, so I don’t mind. But the ones that don’t talk to me for six months at a time and then IM me one day with “Could you create a theme for me?” are just really getting on my nerves.
In other news, my table arrived in NJ around 2:30 this afternoon (based on UPS tracking at least) it should hopefully be here before Monday. I’m going to jump the gun and say it will show up tomorrow – but I also said I’d pick up the chairs today and I never did so who knows. It’ll get here whenever it gets here and I guess that’s all that matters. My local King Kullen Supermarket is having its Memorial Day Sale so the chairs are marked down to about $5.99 each. This means I don’t have to find a way out to East Meadow, I can just have daddy take the roof off the Jeep and we can go pick them up. I’m not getting the bench for a few weeks, its unimportant. The shades can wait too. I just want the chairs, that’s all. Besides, for the time being I can just throw the two extra chairs in the corner with my neighbors coffee table and it can easily take the place of the bench. Problem solved.
I know I’m rambling, and I’m sure I’m boring you so I’m just going to hit “Post” and shut down for the night.
your blog made an interesting read. you really have a way with words. i’ll say that i have very little energy now adays aswel. it’s stupid, seeing as i have to do very important work and exams this year ! i’m generally just an extremely lazy person. i hate it.
i’m trying to motivate myself. best of luck with stuff !
Krissy: I seriously want to blame the weather, but I just know its not it. Thank you, and good luck with school.
Aim is The Devil, I hardly ever use it. I hope you’re feeling a little better today.
im sorry your so down. but i hope you feel better soon. and enjoy your laptop when it gets there. xD
My granny died 18 years ago and I still grieve for her today.The pain doesnt go away-it will fade from that intense burning pain into a dull ache someday but it will never go away.
I didn’t know Joe-I barely know you but I can gather how much he meant to you from what you’ve written-and even that isn’t half of it- right?
I’m sorry your hurting right now,but keep your chin up Krissy-you’ll get there,no-one can tell you if and when but you will get there.Oneday.
i don’t particularly like aim, i’m more of an msn user 😛
wow, the deal at wal-mart sounds really good. i don’t think i’ve ever actually been to a wal-mart – isn’t that amazing? i’m more of a target girl myself 😀
p.s. i’m an xposure commenter, my username is “angels calling”/ohsoxbeautiful…
could you create a theme for me please? no i’m just kidding. so that bag is cool. i don’t like any of the laptop bags i’ve seen. i need to get something a little smaller than a diaper bag because frankly i’d rather leave that piece of luggage at home when i go out and take something smaller. she’s too old for that much crap but she still needs a tad bit for emergencies.
and you are right time really doesn’t heal much, not unless it’s a really long time from what i gather.
oh yeah thanks for fixing my math thing i know you are busy. i personally am not sure you should be commenting if you can’t add 50 and 100 but hey whatever the people want right?
maybe your laptop will make you feel better. hope you are going ok 🙂

I don’t think we ever stop grieving when we lose someone, life is a cycle and we all end up going the same place if we are lucky to live a life of no wrong doings such as killing or bad things people shouldn’t do. I think that we learn that in life you don’t realize what you have until its gone and you wish so much you could go back and make things different, i wish that so bad, You can never imagine what one person is going through, its different for everyone and its ok to feel the way you do.
I think your a great person for the short time i’ve talked to you and even though i don’t read your jounrnal that much, i’m glad that i got to know you, Joe always talked about you, You were a big part of his life and i wish we met sooner, and actually all hung out together, you were a great friend to him. He is proud of you for everything you have accomplushed and i know that talking does help, but you still feel the pain, its ok to, i think we wouldn’t be humans if we had no emotion, i think that some people are really evil and that they aren’t human, but some break down, even the bad ones do, i think life gets to you some times and you have to cry it out other wise what would you do?
Well enough rambling for me, take care and i hope to talk with you again if you decide to go on aim one day, feel free to im me, i’m here for you and if you want we could be friends i’d like that in time.

I can honestly say I don’t trust anyone. It’s kind of sad really, but it’s just me with all honesty. Trust is a hard thing for me to come by, because when I do trust someone, I always seemed to get screwed over somehow.
Anyway, Sorry you’re feeling down, I hope you feel a bit better soon. It takes time though.
wow.. i would be excited for the new computer too! I was stoked when I got mine 😛 The bag sounds cute..I love lots of compartments to hold stuff too! haha 🙂 Time doesn’t so much heals things and it just makes it easier.
Hi Krissy…
even though being far away, reading your blog always somehow comes close to me… You’re great in writing about emotions, thoughts and fears, perhaps you’re missing a career being a writer… 🙂
Anyhow, cheers from here, take care…
Kris
