A day with the babes...

Believe it or not, I stayed in pretty much all day. It was cloudy and cool outside, a very peaceful moment to wake up to, and I couldn't help but think how lucky I am to be living in a place like this. My apartment isn't all that huge or fancy, but we've managed to make it a home. It's also nice to have Adella as our third roommate. She's a really sweet girl.

This is the first time in two years that we've had all women in the apartment. I always thought that having at least one guy around would make things more interesting, but while it does have its pros (especially if he's CUTE, ahem…), I'm really enjoying the current status quo. In the afternoon, Laurie and I watched "Beloved" on HBO which still sticks out in my mind, then the three of us went to Friday's for dinner.

Moments of reflection...

I spent pretty much the entire day trying to finish the content on the right-hand side of the index page for this site. I cannot WAIT to finish the whole thing so that I can just write up my dang journal entries!! This is driving me INSANE. It took me forever but I finally finished writing up the "About my journals" sections.

In so doing, and in reading some of my old journals, I noticed how inconsistent was my handwriting, as sometimes I wrote in cursive, sometimes in print. Sometimes I wrote with total authority, and sometimes I wrote without care. On top of that, my memory truly SUCKS, so on the rare occasion that I do reread old journals, it shocks me to read what I've written. A good example of this is the first entry in my 1995 journal, dated 2/16/95:

  • "I fell in love with Albert today. He's really my type, so tall handsome
    and buff. I hope someday he'll be mine and dump that Vicky girl.
    God I'll miss him so much, I hope he remembers me because I'll never
    forget him."
Cin had given me that journal as a going away gift just before I left D.C. and had everyone sign the inside front cover, which was really sweet. So when I reread that entry, my first thought was, WHAT IN THE HELL? I WAS DATING ONE OF ALBERT'S BEST FRIENDS AT THE TIME! HOW COULD THIS BE?

My second thought was, I'm going to kill Albert the next time I see him. And my third thought was, Christine... you're dumb.
