What happens when the tragedy starts to go away?

I'm still on a high from last night...and maybe still a little tipsy, too. I had such a great time being around people that I don't get to hang out with anymore. Andrea said I was "on fire" last night, and a lot more fun to be around than when JC and I were together. I probably flirted a little too much, definitely drank too much, but I didn't cry. It was kind of funny that the whole table of about ten or so people that were there last night were all heartbroken fools. I suppose it 'tis the season for that. I guess it's true, people really do break up a lot more right before the holidays. I know I will be bummed out though because JC come home tomorrow, and that means that I won't be able to hang out like that again with everyone. I actually think...and maybe it's just today...that I would be able to handle it...being around him when I'm out, but I'm sure it would still make everyone else uncomfortable, and who knows how the hell he would feel about it. But I had a thought today...after Andrea told me about everyone else's reaction to me last night that I didn't even notice...FUCK HIM...I really am a great person...I know that I'm actually a really great girlfriend...I'm very understanding and nuturing and whatever else...and he's just way too young and dumb and caught up in his own little world to see it...well, actually according to him he does see it...he just can't deal with it...whatever the hell that means. If he wants to let me go then he'll have to live with it for the rest of his life...and I think I do know that one day, maybe after the next girl he's with, he'll realize it, and it will be too late. I feel the "moving on", angry phase of this whole thing coming on, and if he wants to stop it, he'll have to be quick. I'm tired. I'm tired of feeling like shit...I'm tired of letting this rule my everyday...and I'm tired longing for something that maybe wasn't even there to begin with. I love the guy...I probably always will...but I will not be a martyr for this...I won't let it control me anymore...I'm sure there are still some bad moments to come, but hey...I think I'm doing better...I think I can love him from afar and be okay with that, and do what I got to do for Elizabeth! I mean I have a lot going for me, right? I'm almost a college graduate, which is something I never thought I'd be, if I get my ass back in the gym I could have my dream career, and a hot body to go with it...I will be feeling grand come January...I can feel it...maybe I shouldn't speak so soon, but positivity is KEY right now...I miss him and I love him, but I've had enough. If he can't see what we had, and if he wants to let me go...it is all on him...he'll have to get over it...not me.

All I can say is:

"Praise Jesus!"

"Thank GOD!"

"FINALLY"

"That's my girl!"

"Welcome to the light!"

"BRAVO!"

"Fuck yea!"

and

"I'm so proud of you."

...but nurturing? That might be a stretch. .... =)

All Iced In

In case anyone has been watching the weather for the whole country...you will know that here in sunny San Antonio, we have been having some very out of the ordinary weather. We got iced in for the last two days. Not snowed in...It's all ice. Snow to the north, but all we got was freezing rain. I was cracking ice off my car with a wooden flip-flop keychain, seeing as how I don't own an ice chipper or whatever you call them, because this isn't usually a problem. Gabby got to have two ice days from school. I have spent the last almost 72 hours in my house, and I'm literally going crazy!!! I just had to get over to my mom's today so I could do something different for a change. The roads are much safter, but watch out for the ice flying off of cars! I'm not exaggerating at all when I say that a chunk of ice the size of a passenger side car window came hurling at me! It was kind of scary. Or the ice falling from the power lines...that's kind of scary, too. But, th...

Pretty Decent Weekend

I went out Friday night, and....I met someone. We really, really hit it off. I think some of you who know me really well would be shocked at how good looking he is. His name is Paul, he's 29, and he's only been in San Antonio for about a week. Anyway, we talked all night, I drank a little too much, and so did he, so the night didn't actually end that well because there was an argument between him and Andrea. I thought he was a little rude, and also maybe he would be scared off. But we were texting last night, and we're going to meet up next Friday. I really do think he should apologize to Andrea first though. Although, I'm so green with this dating thing...I almost think that's too much to ask when you're getting to know someone. I don't know, you tell me. Saturday I pretty much did nothing but recover. And then Sunday, Andrea, Gabby, and I went hiking. We did a Level 4 out of 5 trail for an hour and a half. I'm not sure how many miles it...

Last one for tonight, I PROMISE!!!

It's official...I've finally decided what it is...I think the background for my posts is too dark. I don't like the way pictures show up on it...I love the whole ocean/beach theme thing because it really fits me, but I think I need something sunny, brighter...I love the picture with the mermaid because it's all bright and stuff, and so is the sidebar, but the dark, navy-ish blue just isn't doing it for me. I don't like the way my posts "look"...I think it reminds me too much of my teenage angst years, when at 14 or 15 I turned everything in my room into navy blue, and put up the darkest navy blue curtains...close enough to being black, it looked like I lived in a tomb, and I couldn't stand it after awhile...It actually contributed to my depression. That's why now, I don't even have curtains...I would much rather have the morning sun come blaring through my windows...That's what I need here...I've figured it out...
