I ain't missin' you at all!

Yeah, right! Go with that!



I would like to say that I am the kind of person that just moves on. The kind that doesn't care enough or pay enough attention to miss the simple little things. Well, that's not me. I miss little things and big things alike. It's like the song says, "I can lie to myself", but what's the point? I know what I feel. I know what I miss. I know why I miss it. There's something in you that has never been in anyone else and I want that again. I want to believe that it can exist again since you are a ghost in my past now.

Sometimes I send an email to your old address because I want to pretend that you'll get it. That you'll know that I am thinking about you. That you'll know you are forever in my heart. When it bounces back and tells me the address no longer exists, I remember you are a ghost. I wonder if you're alright. I wonder if you're happy now. I wonder if you miss me, too. I wonder if you're out there under this same big sky wishing on the airplanes in the night sky... And, in the end, I remember that you see me for me and love me just the same. And so it goes...

  1. I don't think ghosts are real, I think people hide for reasons...or people hide their lives for reasons as to not hurt others!! There's no stars above me right now...just the start of another day

  2. I believe in not hiding. Hurt comes regardless. I would rather live out loud and fully and bear the challenges of what comes with it!

Struggles

Struggles. We all have them. My (latest) favorite saying is, "We all have our things." And for me, my "thing" is wanting to eat to fill the emptiness inside. And not like carrots and apples and good for you stuff. Oh, No! The really bad for you stuff. I crave sugary treats. I have been doing so well with my eating lately and have been exercising for the last few weeks as well, but last night nearly took me down. I was struggling with wanting to run--not walk--into the kitchen and make myself a bowl of cereal with some Craisins or a fruit smoothie or a PB&J. I prayed instead. Almost to the point of tears, I begged God for this to pass. I ate some carrots. I drank some more water. I contemplated some tea. I got out my swiss ball and did some wall squats as I watched TV. I had already been out for a walk earlier with ML, too, but I felt like I was coming out of my skin. OBSESSING about eating something. It wasn't food that I wanted, though. I wanted to feed t

Sometimes, Reality is Worse

What if I told you that Joseph/SAM was created to hurt me? Made up to be everything I'd ever want and more? What if I told you everything I believed and knew him to be was an enormous hoax? All because someone wanted to give me what she felt I had given her. All that she felt I had taken from her. I have to admit that while people have hurt me before with their actions and decisions it has been for their own personal and selfish reasons. Usually not with malicious intent.  There has to be a lot of pain and hurt within a person to invest so much into the creation of a fictional character. Someone who would really take the time to know me. Someone who would enlist others to make the ruse real. To call me on the phone, to send me cards from the web, to pick out a card and leave it at a bar where the bartender who gave it to me told me how cute my guy was, to create a Facebook account with pictures and friends, to bring an ex-wife into the mix, pictures from the desert and your trave

Join the Navy, See the World!

There are things we want in life and make happen, but they don't always happen as we'd planned or imagined. My dad had gone to Ohio University in Athens, OH on a wrestling scholarship. I, too, wanted to go to OU, but since he'd dropped out and it had a reputation as a huge party school, it was going to be a tough sell. So, I did my homework and sell I did. At the time (1990), OU was one of the top 10 colleges for Communications in the U.S. That was the degree I wanted and I wanted to go to OU to get my degree. I graduated early and during the time between my acceptance to OU and the College of Communications and pre-college, I had become further enamored with marine life and sharks specifically and wanted to change my major to Marine Biology which at OU was actually a Zoology degree. The girl tried to talk me out of changing my major because it was so hard to get into the College of Communication and if I left, I would have to reapply and hope for the best in my junior year
