Is Looking In The Paper A New Low?
I don’t just mean reading the newspaper. That’s actually very intelligent. But I happened to look at the paper today, because it was opened up on the table, and what do you know? The singles page is open. So, I’m just browsing, thinking what are the chances I’m actually gonna find someone my age in the newspaper? And what do you know, I find a guy who’s 24, single white male, 5 foot 9, and wants to meet a girl who’s in between 19 and 32. (Okay, the thirty-two I find a little odd, but still.) And I sign on, and go to the site to see if it’s possible to contact this guy somehow without actually calling and paying the two odd bucks a minute. So, I’ll see.
On the upside, though they don’t look any better, my eyes feel about a hundred times better than they did a day or two ago. Oh!!! ::Smacks forehead with palm:: I completely forgot about this yesterday. Denny, if you read this, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Twenty exclamation points for you!! Still don’t know what t get you, but I’ll figure out something.
On another upside, work wasn’t that bad today. Nothing much happened, people bought loads of stuff. One woman actually bought eight bags worth of stuff, and guess how much it totaled? Twenty-nine dollars!!! Twenty-nine! Because she got all dollar rack stuff. Nice, huh?
Shannon came into Dots today to give me the CD she bruned for me, just when I was about to give up on her coming. I came home from work, and listened to it, and I LOVE it!!!! I love these songs, and I’ve only ever heard them on the radio. I hate buying a CD for one song, you know? I just hope the karaoke versions can be found, and soon . . . Bring Me To Life, and My Immortal sound really good, though the only thing that bugs me is that Bring Me To Life doesn’t have the back up guy vocals. Oh, well. I can ask someone to sing them, or if I don’t, it’ll be okay. I can still just sing the lead, cuz I was able to follow it along all right.
I can’t believe I’m not tired. Dolly and I were online until around three-thirty in the morning last night. ( … “in the morning last night.” Hmm…) ::Dory looks at Marlin:: “Can I help you?” Lol. We talked about a lot of stuff, and we both told one another some pretty hard things. I’m glad though. It’s like I’ve said… SOMEWHERE before, it’s like we hit a reset button on our friendship, and now we’re going about things right. I’m glad. I’m glad I finally called her, I’m glad we’re doing thinsg right and being honest with one another this time, I’m glad we’ve grown up a lot in the two years we weren’t speaking, and I’m glad that so far, we don’t seem to be going into old patterns.
Oh! That reminds me of a poem I started thinking about last night. Courtesy of Dolly, by the way.
What Face Am I?
*~*
What face do I show you?
What face do you see?
Do you even realize
there’s many sides to me?
One that’s happy,
one that’s sad.
One that’s teary,
one that’s mad.
That’s all I have so far, because I try not to come up with much of a poem if I know I won’t be able to write it down for awhile. Frankly, I’m lucky I remember this much of it. Okay, maybe I’ll come up with more later. Bye!!

I don’t regret our LONG talk last night and never will…but I’m having second thoughts about that letter I sent you know who. yeeeeeep! [HyacatDuncan]
