news update:

neila's birthday Oct 1st. yeah I know, big deal.

 


 

3:53 AM EST

I am the worst daughter ever. my mom's birthday on tuesday and I remembered all the way up until the actual day, when I forgot to call or anything. and of course I didn't send the card yet or buy a present yet, cause I am the worst daughter ever, hugely lazy and hugely poor. b-day wishes are also b-day apologies.

so today's loafe is dedicated to my beautiful mom. happy birthday mom! christa loves you lots and lots and lots! and one day when she's all grown up and all put together she will make you proud. so don't give up on her just yet! happy birthday you crazy monkey mom.

I haven't been sleeping well lately. and it seems to be getting worse.

someone told me I was oversexed. this greatly disturbs me. I just can't seem to win. I'm too much of this not enough of that, loud quiet honest a liar full of regret never look back up down nowhere everywhere. I'd like to sit this one out, or just for a little while, if I could.

i had the entire house to myself tonight. It felt so natural. being alone. I'm not saying it felt good, or even bad, it just felt right. I want to live alone in a big old house, me and my cats, braving it together. I'd like that, I think.

you're bound to run into him again and when you do, you're shaking and you want to throw up and you can barely breathe and all the hurt you felt but were trying so hard to keep away is suddenly all there in your throat and your eyes and your mouth and your heart and you have so many things you want to say but instead you say nothing. and you say nothing because that's what he wants and you have no choice and besides you don't want to know the truth. no. you don't. and you hate yourself, you can't stop hating yourself because you have to look in that mirror and know that once more, yet again, big surprise: you just aren't good enough. that's what it always comes down to.

christa, do shut up. please.

oh oh oh! jennifer (my sister for the less-smart readers) is having her baby on Sept 29th. it's a breech baby, so they are gonna do a c-section and the bambino is gonna be brought out the 29th. this is so exciting! I just wish I could be there. well not THERE, cause you know, that's gross, I don't wanna see any of THAT, but I wanna see the baby after she's all clean and pretty and smells good like babies do. but I have to wait till christmas. I say she, but we don't really know yet for sure. we all think it will be a girl and jenn dreamed it would be a girl, so you know, that's what we think. my mom had all girls, my oldest sister all boys and so we're thinking time for a girl again. julie marie will be her name. cause it sounds okay in both french and english. the baby's dad is french. french-canadian. I know, gag. but what can you do? sis jenn isn't as culturally aware of the french/french-canadian ability to be fucking irritating as all hell.

time keeps on marching. I keep on not sleeping. someone help me please.

man. tomorrow is my therapy app't. I don't wanna go. my old therapist meg who I just love even more now that she isn't around, she was great. this new girl, she's nice and all I guess, but she always says "so, how does that make you feeeeeeeel?" or "what does that mean to you, what do you think that means?" how the fuck am I supposed to know? she just sits there and stares at me and she has this weird smile on her lips and doesn't say anything, she just looks and looks and I sit there fidgeting and finally I just start babbling on about something cause she's making me so freaking nervous just smiling at me with that weird therapist "you're such a fucking nut job" smile and I have no idea what i'm even saying, I'm not even talking about real stuff, I'm making it up, my mouth is moving and she's nodding and STILL SMILING why are you smiling like that jesus christ yes I fucked him no i didn't fuck him yes i'm a trashy whore yes i'm looking to be rescued yes i gave him a blow job you bet i swallowed i have serious issues i'm insane and what does it mean it means that I need just one goddamned good orgasm.

this is why I stopped therapy last time. I was making progress with meg I think. she had me half-believing I was the person she thought I was. almost duped. thankfully, Smiling Therapist came along and saved the day. now I can go back to the christa that I know and love to hate.

it is true though, I am looking to be rescued. I don't think irish boys are the saving kind. they are the kind to keep pushing you and knocking you back down, cause all they want is just a little fun and hey, since you're already down there, how about a blowjob?

will you pretend? will you pretend that I'm beautiful and sweet and good, stroke my hair with a little bit of softness, my face with just the slightest touch of kindness? yes? you will? then of course I'll suck you off. a girl like me--she has to take that little bit wherever and however she can get it.

I should be honest. I haven't had sex or sexual activity with an irish lad (or any man for that matter) in several weeks. i'm still a whore though! I swear it!

my boss bought me a DVD player today. we mail-ordered it. I should get it next week. I'm excited. I wanted a DVD player. I was online getting him a new answering machine for his house (cause his broke) and I told him the price and he said "are you buying it at an electronics store or something?" and I said "yeah" and he said "do they have DVD players?" and I said "they sure do" and he said "why don't you get one of those too, while you're at it" and I said "okay, but why? you already have one" and he said "well, it isn't for me" and I said "well okay. what kind, how much?" and then he said "an entry level priced model, a decent brand, nothing crazy, but you know, whatever you find a good price on" and I said "alright" and I still didn't know he was getting it for me and then I found it and i showed it to him and I said "here is the price and here is the features" and he skimmed them over and he said "that's a good player and that's a good price, get that one" and I ordered it and then right before it's time to go, he says "that's for you" and I say "why?" and he said "cause I like you and you work hard and you deserve more than you make" and that was that. so next week I have DVD player. this is how many DVD's I own: 0 (that's a zero).

not too long ago, a friend was talking to me about when he proposed to his girlfriend and my heart sort of swelled. It must feel good to be proposed to. he's divorced now, but still--that first moment when he's asking you, I bet that feels terrific, cause you're not thinking about what might eventually happen, you're just looking at this guy who loves you and wants to be with you.

oh jeez, I really gotta try and get some sleep.

why you put up with me, loafe, I have no idea. but I kiss you.

p.s. i am not proofreading this cause I am actually tired now I think.
