Even Though This One Guy Said I Looked Like Wonder Woman....
..I'm Really Not.

I read yesterday that a break up is so painful it's like mourning a death, and when I analyzed my emotions, it rang very true. When breaking up you've lost a loved one, someone very close to you, and trying to move on is heart-breaking. You have good moments and bad, and when you think your done thinking about them, they enter your mind out of nowhere and the tears begin to fall. In a way, I believe breaking up can be more painful because there isn't any real closure. That person is still out their living their life, and you can't reach out and wrap your arms around them.

I'm the one who initialized the break up. I shouldn't feel so torn, but random events from the past two days have added to the beginnings of an emotional downfall. When it rains, it pours--- LITERALLY. I woke up to a puddle on my living room floor. It's been dreadfully cloudy and rainy, and now my ceiling is leaking. I've also found two dead roaches in the past two days. The little shits were here when I moved in-- have probably been here for years, and no matter how hard I clean, or how many times I call an exterminator, they keep showing up. And of course they decide to show up now.

Then there is my job. There are many changes being made within the walls of Ruby Tuesday. Changes many people aren't too happy with, and this includes myself. I will elaborate on that later...............but all of this has me thinking about where I am and what I'm doing. Winter is coming fast and I've yet to figure out how to keep my apartment warm. I can't have another $800 power bill. I'm getting sick of this town, and I know I've lost the only person here who fit me just right. I met him by chance, and there is no way in hell I will find another person with my exact interests or passions in a place like Wilkesboro. I need a change, and although I considered chopping off all of my hair and replacing my hymen, It's not good enough. I need new scenery.

So I'm a bit down in the dumps. Chad won't even take my calls, though I had really hoped we'd still be friends. I called him a few times yesterday, and though I had called just to hear his voice and talk to him, I had to save my pride and make up a lame excuse for calling on his voice-mail. And in the few seconds it took his voice-mail to clink and beep (he has no message, just some clicking sounds) I came up with a stupid excuse that probably hurt him even more than I already have. I'm such a stubborn moron.

But screw pride. This is how I feel. I'm not as okay as I wish I were, but I know it's for the best, though lately I've been doubting my actions. One of my faults is that I act on impulse. When I get hurt, I flee, and I felt that fleeing would be much easier than getting hurt over and over again.

I can say I do have one thing to look forward to: I'm going to Winston next Friday night for a visit me and Chad had planned on paying together, but so much for that. While talking to my good friend Jon, AKA Underdogautopsy, until three a.m. this morning, we both decided that a good night on my old high school city was in order. I'm glad to say I have that to look forward to, and thank you so much Jon for cheering me up. I was in no mood to talk to anybody via phone, but it did me a lot of good.

Crap..this was a long post. And since I'm stuck at home all day due to the rain, I will be taking comments, however, they will be screened. And please..I don't need a pity party (there goes that stupid pride again), I just had to get all of this out. I feel a little better already. <3

I agree with you 100% a break is up is harder than the death of a friend. I've always said a broke heart is the worst pain in the world, that's one feeling I never want to feel again!

There must be alot of resturants going through changes, because a couple of my friends whom work for resturant chains are unhappy with the changes their stores are going through aswell.

It is! I had forgotten how much it actually sucked, but I'm being productive...which I haven't been in months.

Move to Columbia.. or at least come visit. Bring Aiedyn, he'll love our zoo. Sometimes a change of scenery is just what the doctor ordered.

That's a pretty far move. I know nothing about Columbia, except they have lots of cocain. Oh..wait..wrong Columbia.

I've actually considered Winston-Salem. I have friends there, went to high school there, and me and Chad always had a good time visiting. It's grown so much since I've lived there. Plus, tips are so much better, and I could get an apartment for only $100 more a month. But it's just something I'm thinking about.

A weekend trip would be fun, though- now that I have a car that will actually get me there.

Ha! I'd actually thought about that. The photos you post make it look so lovely! But that's pretty far. If I did decide to move, I'd want it to be close enough to Aiedyn's father so his weekend/summer trips wouldn't be a hassle.

Just let me know anytime!!

I like W-S myself. My brother and his wife live there and they both really like it there.

Will do!

I liked Winston when I lived there. My only fear is taking Aiedyn out of the country and putting him in a city school. It's much safer here.

That's understandable. But there are magnets, montessoris, etc. that could be worth looking into. I know that the school where I teach is kind of ghetto, but there are three magnets within the school that evens out the population.

Magnets? I don't understand this big city teacher talk. ;)

It is very much like a death. When Brandon and I split, it was just misery. No matter what I did to feel happy or how hard I tried to convince myself I WAS happy, I just wasn't. It was total misery, and the only cure is time.

Thinking of you, and wishing good things for you. :) xoxo

Thanks, Shawna. I know time will heal this. I've been through it before, I just wish time would fly by. I HAD to pick a weekend when I have Aiedyn and am stuck at home to break up with Chad. I need brain surgery more than hymen replacement surgery. ;)

Humiliating ourselves to communicate to someone our pain, or that we miss them, can be one of the most difficult things to do. I never did it with Ashley but I did with Sarah. And although it didn't get me anywhere and the relationship ended the same as it would have otherwise... it makes me feel better about it, just because I know I laid myself bare, she knew exactly how I felt, and there can never be any sort of questioning. I fought for her the hardest I knew how, and it wasn't enough, and I have to take solace in the fact that I didn't hold anything back once it got to that point.

Genuinely glad my Yankee-fast talking Friday night was of any help in you taking your mind off other things, I was v. glad to see your name show up on my caller ID when you rang. The W-S crew (okay, so "crew" here is only two people) is looking very much forward to hanging out w/ you. The Camel City will reel.

I'm sorry about Sarah. But if she's sily enough to pass up a good thing, then she's not worth your awesomeness. ;)

I also look forward to my visit. It will be fun..I just know it! I want to meet this ultra cool bartendress you speak so highly of, and we HAVE to get started on Seth's Presidential campaign.

Vivian is, indeed, the queen of cool. You and her underneath the same roof will be... an act of God is liable to occur just on account of it.

Nah, don't be sorry about Sarah. She knew what she was doing. I can't say as I blame her.
