"So this is Christmas...what have you done?"

Well this is what I did on Christmas. Got up at a leisurely hour of 11. So nice to sleep in. In fact, that might have been the latest I have ever slept in on Christmas Day. Crazy, I know. The roomies were all home so it was good to spend some quality time with them before going our separate ways for the day. Tye was putting things away and JHey was straightening up a bit. I went ahead and opened my gifts from my parents and family that they made me bring home unopened only to "wait for Christmas Day". My mom put together a huge book full of family recipes that I have been asking for forever. It was my favorite gift by far. Stories included along with some of my childhood memories wrapped up in food. Amazing, ey? Very cool all the same. She also bought me a "charm" bracelet with a single star on it. It proves to me my mother really does pay attention to my current favorites...good times.

Got ready and headed out to Cali's house to meet up with Gianina, Katrina, Tony, Neo and Cali's parents. It was good times. We had some good cooking from Tony, good chats and lots of laughter. Those kids cracked me up. We exchanged gifts and stars were everywhere. *grin* Doesn't it figure? Plus, I got a tire guage. Perfect! Gianina, you make me smile! I also got WHITE SAUCE....eat your heart out K....no worries...you will get some I am sure. Got some "specials" from Cali's daddy and played a bit of the game "Sex in the City"...apparently I am not so sex smart. *grin*

After dinner and chats with the gals and Tony *grin*, I left to stop by Julie's for a bit to wish them a Merry Christmas before heading back to my apartment to hang with the roomies. Yea, I have a feeling I won't ever be invited back to Julie's apartment. Oops. I got there and met a lot of new people and saw some old friends as well. I raced with Syndey (the cutest baby in the world) up the stairs. Everyone was getting toasted so I was on my way to catching up for a bit until I surpassed big time. I ran into the screen and broke it. Oops #1. Then, I kinda knocked off a picture frame of some sort and it broke into pieces. Oops #2. Yea...not so cool...that was pretty much my ticket to leave. I am so sorry Julie...I suck, but thanks for inviting me if that means anything at all. Finally got to meet Kyle and hang out with Mark a bit more. Funny kids they are. Mark was my "beer boy" and did a great job. He was also my shot partner...bad times. Who had to mention Coconut Run? Released some much needed tension and it was all in good fun for a bit, until Julie cut me off from fighting. Darn. But much needed. Shoes and socks were going everywhere. 867 was too cute. I love it when she has a bit to drink, she just starts kissing and telling people how much she loves them. So sweet! Kim cracked me up and was like my "Romeo" when I left and begged me to come back and say goodbye...I guess I sometimes have the habit of just leaving...without saying goodbye to everyone. I figure if I have covered one, then I have covered them all, but I guess that is not always the case. I'm sorry. Started having a text message fight that wasn't helping very much....

Sorry to all those looking for me...sorry for the texts, calls and pages...I got them all...eventually. Love you all though! Got home and met up with Rachel leaving my apartment and she helped me with my gifts into the apartment. Everyone had apparently been waiting on me to have "Christmas" Oops...I suck yet again. It was J Janis, JHey, Ian, Tye, Mark Carter and friend who I always forget his name, Kelly, Scott Gordon, and Libby Jones. So once I got home, had some chats with individual people (thank you!), got yelled at for being the dunko who came to Christmas and sat down to enjoy time with my friends. I love them. *grin* J Janis made me almost shed tears...that kid. Whew.

Finished up the text message fight with a call. Much better now...thank you. And NO it's not "rad". Who uses that word anyways?

"Some kind of wonderful" was on...watched that movie...whether "gay" or not I like it. Good times. Stayed up pretty late and then crashed. "Merry Christmas"

Been at work for the majority of the day. Getting a lot done, but getting frustrated at the same time because I can't finish some of my training projects until I have all the information and sadly I have to wait for that. I am getting impatient.....Had lunch with JHey though and that was good times. Can't wait to get home and see Nick and watch movies....good plan for the evening, yea?

I can't believe today is Christmas Eve. Already. I am smelling the brownies that I am cooking in the oven. Just got done wrapping the last of the presents. Turned on the lights on the (palm) tree *grin*. Watching "The Christmas Story" and a random DVD of Hilary Duff. Yea..I know. Don't ask.

Picked up Libby earlier today from the airport. Crazy traffic. Did some shopping and came home to do some cooking. Been a good less stressed day.

Not gonna read into why I heard Switchfoot's "I dare you to move" multiple times on the radio today.

Got an early Christmas gift in the mail today from K. Thank you *so* much my friend. You have no idea what that meant to me. And you have already made my ears happier *grin*

Being stuck in this hole sucks. I don't like watching what I thought was there disappear. I don't want to force it, but I can't just stand by and watch it unravel either. I don't like thinking that it's too late...

Trying to move on...

I don't have a "me" and I am not sure why someone believes that I do. If someone calls and says to me personally "Hey, it's me" I can usually decipher who is on the phone by their voice if it is assumed that I actually know the person. If the "me" form comes from a pager or another electronical device, how am I suppose to know who "me" is. This bothers me because who out there assuming that I am gonna know who "me" is when I don't have a "me". If I had a "me" then I would know exactly who it was and that person would know that for sure. Nevermind the message that "me" left on my pager, but I am pretty sure that it's the same person leaving me notes all around the web and not admitting to who they are. If you want to even try to be the "me" in my life, you are gonna have to give me the choice and tell/show me who you are, just FYI. And please don't assume that I don't think of all the many possible "me"'s that it could be, cause at this point, it's open to the entire universe.

I haven't really mentioned a lot about work in my journal lately because it hasn't been the most pleasant of conversations lately. Who knows where it is going, but as of now it's pretty hectic and crazy. I am still enjoying it, but each day I am fighting to keep my positive attitude because of all the changes and confusions. I have been noticing that my "bitterness" has been starting to show, but it's not really bitterness than it is my stress level going up, but I realize I need to not show it...hide it more. It seems as though I have a hard time hiding my feelings though at times. I can't help but to put them on my sleeve and pray that it doesn't hurt me in the end. Hasn't worked so far. *frown*

Monica came in the office to see me today and she was just what I needed. Thank you for knowing exactly what I needed to hear and for telling me it in such a wonderful way. All I can do is hope that your words seep into my soul and help it be revived. I love you Monica!

Went and did my first lunch run today. Boy the traffic was horrible. *grin* A big thanks to Coop for driving and being my sane voice. Couldn't have said it better myself, well I guess I kinda did, but glad it was reinforced...I just need to admit it now.

I shouldn't have said what I had said.

I needed time after work today to just sit. To just lay. To just rest my eyes and sleep. Sleeping things off usually work for me. Sleep off a cold, the flu, bad days, a headache. All the things that could make me feel like crap. It didn't work quite as well this time.

Thank you O'Kelly for making me smile...and laugh.

I can't believe that tomorrow is Christmas Eve. I can't believe that I actually have the next two days off. It's amazing how my regular days off just fell on the holidays. Too bad it's not that big of a deal.

Going to try and sleep more of it off.

Been a bit behind lately. Several reasons for that actually. I haven't really been able to formulate the words in my head of what I want to get out....I have so much to say and no way to say it. This seems to happen more times than not in my head. I have these thoughts, situations, problems and stresses that I can't get rid of and can't explain. I want to stop getting in these moods and just live my life to where I don't worry about anything, nothing gets to me, I stop having feelings and my world just plays out like a film with a script and someone feeding me lines so I know exactly what is gonna happen and be able to prepare myself for the moments ahead so I don't get hurt.

With that said....I am gonna start with last Monday and the crazy events that follow. Be prepared for a long ride ahead...

Monday I got off work and rushed home to meet up with Gianina, Julie and Jennie. Had promised K that I would get air in my tires and load my car up with gas before we started our road trip, so Julie decided to assist. *grin* Apparently I was out to get Julie unintentionally. Poor thing. I almost sprayed her with gas and then was SO close to knocking her out with the air hose. SO SORRY! I really wasn't *trying* to kill you, it just almost happened. We got on the road and had the best girly conversations with more laughing than talking involved. Had mixed cds courtesy of Julie and we rocked out on our way to Tampa. First road trip of the week. It was great to get to know those girls better. Also, Jennie is now and forever known as 867-5309 (867 for short).

Got a call from J saying that it was a private event and they had no clue. Ummm...okay. Our first reaction was...well you know what our first reaction was. *grin* Our second reaction was...what the hell. Let's go to Tampa for the evening anyways (we were like twenty miles away anyway) and either spend the evening shopping and hanging out or eating ourselves away at the Cheesecake Factory. I needed to do some shopping anyways...so in the middle of doing our brainstorming I get another call from J saying that he is gonna get us in and to keep driving. Told him all the others that were already on their way and our names were on the list. Score. It's good to know people. Thanks FYC!

So...we get there and it's the cutest little bar, so trendy and fun! It's called The Blue Martini and boy did they have Martinis. Too bad I didn't get to partake in them as much as everyone else, but all was well. Basically we crashed a Southwest Airlines Party and became instant Flight Attendants. We met up with Aimee and Ryan, Sherry, met a girl named Kelly, Valerie FINALLY got there, hung out with Jenn and Anna and also ran into Cher and friends later. Totally fun group of people. The stage was right behind the bar and next to the televisions. Great set up, but I think the sound could have been a bit better. Regardless, we were trying to be on our best behavior *giggle* and really that is quite difficult for all of us. We really did give an effort though. Good for us.

Shortly after we decided not to care much anymore. We were already way underdressed and out of place, why not have a good time? So the girls started getting their $1 Martinis (lucky bums) and we danced, sang and had a great time. The photographer was noting our positive attitudes and kept taking photos of us dancing, singing, drinking, etc. It seemed as though he was focusing on us for a lot of the time. He started asking us questions and wondering what we did for the company. I attempt to tell him about my flying experience until I can't make up anymore information and I turn to Julie where she turns away cause she is about to die laughing and spill her Martini everywhere. 867 takes over and does an incredible job of making up some intellectual mumbo-jumbo about flying and the company. Great girl! I think it's gonna be hilarious when those SW Airline employees get their monthly newsletter and our photos are plastered all over it. Good times.

We meet this guy Drew, who came directly up to US and started talking to US first. He was a nice guy who happened to be African American....this is important because a bit later on, we went and started dancing with Drew and his friends. It was fun and very laid back. His friend came up at one point and told him to not dance with us, that it was "not keeping it in the family" and that it wasn't right. And he stepped away and danced with someone else. Not cool...not cool at all.

But that didn't stop our night o fun. We had way too much fun....obtained some "drumsticks" in the form of lite sticks and drumed on my good friends Valerie and Gianina. I made some incredible music that night....sorry for the pain my friends, but making music is painful sometimes. *grin*

Basically the night ended at The Blue Martini and although we wanted to say and enjoy the great deal on the Martinis, we headed back to Orlando. But not without making a few "pit" stops along the way. Poor Julie and 867 were quite the drinkers that night and had some moments. Funny stuff. I took photos. Guy called while the first stop was being made. "Yea, we are on the side of the road, Julie is hunched over tossing her cookies, 867 is holding her hair and I am taking photos, good times!" SO funny!

Gianina was a great passenger side-mate and talked to me the entire drive home. When we got home, we finally convinced Julie and 867 to crash at my place and sleep off some of the drunkness. I think they were still drunk when we woke up early the next morning, but it was better. Good times...

Headed to work and had an eventful day. Got home and met up with Nick and Jake. I was in quite a hurry getting all my stuff together, but the boys helped and made my night so much better already. Rode with them to Sanford to pick up Gianina and was praying for my life. I love my boy Nick, but dear goodness, he drives CRAZY! *grin*

Gianina was ready to go and Catrina saw us out. Gianina and I decided to ride separately so we could have girl talk and so that we would get to Gainesville safely (yep, second road trip of the week). How much do I adore Gianina? I love that girl. We had such good talks and singing moments...while doing all of this for about an hour and a half of driving we are kinda not paying attention to all of the signage (or at least not listening to what they were saying) until we saw the 20 miles to Disney World. You can only imagine what the reaction to that was. **** **** **** and a song about ****. That was funny! We were not too impressed with our direction skills, but all we could do was laugh. So....Gianina and I sing a new song and laugh our butts off while she HAULED BUTT to Gainesville and made it in record time. Nick and Jake only arrived a few minutes before us and they were on a totally different route. Amazing!

We found the Purple Porpoise right before Mark was going on. *SO* glad that we didn't miss him, cause GIANINA ROCKS! *grin* Mark was awesome. Totally different from "Mark of Big Sky" but incredible in an unexpected way. A little bit country and just a laid back singer/songwriter type feel. I enjoyed him.

Saw Berg, Jenn, Anna, K, Missy, Amanda and her friend, Mark, J and Guy, and MATT. Met Michael J's bongo player who apparently is in a band at Epcot. A bit confused on that cause I don't remember much from our conversation, but I enjoyed him just the same.

Lots of pie, lots of photos, lots of beer, lots of fun! All I remember is having some of the best conversations with Mark and Guy separately, but for long periods of time. "Why is it that I have my best conversations with you when I am intoxicated?" Isn't that strange? *grin*

How much do I love Matt. He danced with us. He made my night!

J and Guy rocked out and played an awesome acoustic set. They played "Leaving Atlanta" and for some reason mentioned that I "followed them" umm.....I was confused. So, of course, I have to straighten it out while they are on stage...I am such a dork. Sorry bout that guys....

I need to just let things go..

By the end of the night, I was exhausted and done. I enjoyed the night with my friends though...they rock. Got to get to know Jenn and Anna better and they were good times as usual. Good convos, good friends, good times. Ready to go. So I hung out and then left with Gianina. I remember most of the conversation and then passing out. So sorry my friend....love ya for the drive!

Got back to her place and was picked up by Nick and Jake to sleep the rest of the time in HIS car and ignore the near death experiences I probably had...got home and crashed hardcore.

Got up the next morning to Cali calling me. Oops...must pack. This next trip I consider the "third road trip" of the week, but clearly an "air trip" via Delta Airlines. Cali picked me up and got me to the airport in record time. She rocks! B had gotten me a buddy pass to fly standby on Delta to come home for a few days. What a great gift!

"Leaving *for* atlanta..it won't be the last time wearing long sleeves on a *cold* *December* day to hide the bruises from the beating I've taken again and the ringing in my ears should fade away" (along with the hangover)

Made it on the plane and had planned on having a relaxing nap with music filling my ears and drowning out the pain of the night before. Didn't happen. I sit in my seat and get comfy while the girl next to me turns and says "Have you ever been on a plane before?" She gives me this sad look and finishes with "cause I haven't" So I put the earphones away and any thought of having a nap during the hour and a half flight and calm her fears by talking to her and explaining how much it is like a rollercoaster and how much fun it is.

She was really sweet. A student from UCF, never flown before, didn't even tell her mother cause she would freak out as well, and just going to visit a friend. We talked about stuff she enjoys and anything to keep her mind off of take off. She handled it well and before she knew it, she actually was adoring the view and loving the flight. Good times.

I congratulated her on her first flight and showed her to baggage claim where she met her boy and I continued on my journey to Marta. It's funny. I haven't been back to Atlanta in what seemed like awhile (to me anyways) maybe almost a year and usually I just get annoyed that I am back in town and start missing Orlando from the second that I arrive in the city, but this time it was different. I think I had let enough time elapse before I returned and it felt like I had actually missed the city. Missed the town. Missed Marta. Missed mostly everything..except the traffic, of course. It was strange...but a good strange.

Called Jess and she picked me up from Midtown and brought me to Taco Mac where she was finishing her shift. I got to meet up with Elizabeth again and we chatted a bit while I enjoyed some queso and chips along with a refreshing drink. Ahh! Good times starting my first night in Atlanta. It was already about 5pm when I start and begin making my calls around town. B and her friend Brad were making plans to pick Jess and I up at her place as soon as everyone gets off work. I just hang around and wait until Jess is free and we can start the evening.

Meet up with B and Brad. Got ready and headed out for Doc Cheys, one of my favorite restaurants back home. *SO* good! I missed that place. We got done in record time to head over to Decatur for Eddie's Attic. SCOTT IVEY was playing there so I had to go see my Rock Boat buddy! I missed him. We walked in and it was uncomfortably silent. Then, I heard a voice "I don't believe it" SCOTT IVEY! He was too cute "I hoped you would come, but I wasn't sure" So good to see him.

How much do I love Eddie's Attic? Very intimate, GREAT sound, and a wonderfully respective atmosphere. What I didn't like was that it was too darn silent at times. I need some amount of comfortable allowance, but it wasn't there. However, I did LOVE the sound. Incredible system. Just not comfortable for my taste. Scott Ivey rocked it out and made me proud. I cannot wait to hang out with him again on The Rock Boat! He rocks!

After he played, we all hung out a bit while this other guy played his set. Oh dear goodness. Greg Klyma. Not a complicated guy. First instinct was "interesting...I can dig it" until he started moving his leg up and down, jirating and preaching his songs. Then began my uncontrollable giggling. I had to leave. It got so bad. I looked over at B and we both just couldn't control it. I don't know exactly what it was about him, or his songs, his lyrics, music or dancing style, but I just couldn't stop laughing. I literally excused myself and went to the bathroom (outside the venue part) and laughed until I thought I got it all out. Slowly made my way back into the venue and sat near the bar to critique the musician with Scott.

"Why are there so many songs about Rainbows? Ready to hear me rock out" and then he proceeds to sing "Rainbow Connection" oh dear love the humor. This cover leads into his song that goes like this:

I do enjoy his lyrics for the most part, but with the combination of his folk type music and stomping "moves" I was done. What is even funnier is that as B, Brad and I made our way towards the bar and Scott verus staying in the front row, Jessica wouldn't budge. She loved him. Like LOVED him. I am amazed at music. I love any and all. Some just makes me laugh more than others. Good times.

We finish Greg's set in the other room where we can't hear the music and where I can stop laughing. Chat with Scott and laugh with each other. Brad is a great kid. I enjoyed every moment with him. Cracked me up from the beginning to the very end.

Stole the poster off the wall and said our goodbyes. Headed out to drop B and Brad off and then to Taco Mac for the rest of the evenings activites.

Met up with the Taco Mac crew. I was the only one who wasn't employed there. *grin* Those kids were too much fun though. Met Ryan who is in a band called The Rantings Of Eva and who is an awesome kid. Fell in love with him immediately (even if he doesn't like my bands!) *grin* Hung out with Ryan along with his bandmate Rusty, Kami, Elizabeth, Tori (it was her b-day), Ruben and his friend, and a few others. Started at Taco Mac and then retreated to The Yacht Club (nope, not the Yacht Club Resort that I know in Orlando) which is a bar in Little Five. Good times. Talked about the dirtiest things known to man and laughed our butts off.

From the Yacht Club, Jessica and I were on a mission...a mission of boys. So...we took Ryan, Rusty and Elizabeth with us to The Darkhorse Tavern and met some "fish" Jessica has no shame. Cracked me up and we were meeting people in no time. Fun fun fun. Said goodbye to my new friends and Jessica and I walked back to Taco Mac due to our ride being misplaced. Interesting night.

Got home and crashed on Jessica's bed. Got up way too early the next morning. Headed out for some lunch at Ruby Tuesday's with a less than excited waiter. Ate some yummy food, good talks and then headed to Target for some shopping. Couldn't find what I was looking for, so went home and saw my parents. It was good to spend some time with them. They were both sick, unfortunately, so I tried not to get too close and keep the germs away, but still good to spend some time with them. Saw my puppy and hung out for a bit before leaving to do some shopping on my own in the DURANGO that I love!

Was pretty productive and then headed back to pick up B and get some grub. We went to Chipotles, which rocks my socks off with their mexican food. *So* good! Got some much needed B time in and got to talk about our worlds and how much I missed her. She is an incredible person, as everyone knows who know her. Did some shopping and chatted more. I miss her greatly! Went to see T at her place and it was so good to chat with her! I missed my T!

After visiting with T and meeting Buster, B and I were looking for some more things to do so we went and surprised Jessica at the Taco Mac. Ate some chips and queso (quickly becoming two of my favorite foods ever) and had some refreshments while we chatted with Jess and spent some time hanging out more.

Got done there and headed home to crash. It was *so* nice to sleep in and relax a bit. I hung out with my mom and Honey for most of the day. Relaxing and watching some tv. Felt strange. Then in less than about thirty minutes, everything fell back into place and I was getting stir-crazy. I didn't like just sitting there like old times and doing nothing in Georgia. Don't get me wrong. I missed my parents, family, dog, friends, Christmas tree and house in general, but I really didn't like the feeling that I got just being there. I missed my content feeling that I have in Florida. My happy feeling. The feeling that I belong.

Family quickly came over. Shannon and fam first. Where I got to see my ever-growing nephews, Adam and Jamesy. Adam impressed me with his maturity. It had been while and it was good to just hang out with him without him being too "young". Good times! Jamesy and I bonded like I never knew. That kid is the funniest four year old I know. Everything that came out of his mouth was whitty and perfectly articulated. We bonded over music. He would not let go of my portable CD player. He listened to all of my cds. Didn't matter which one, he loved them all immediately. My four year old nephew was jamming to the likes of Sugarcult, The Killers, Yellowcard, David Ryan Harris, and his favorite, Fifth Year Crush. I have him on my voicemail singing "Leaving Atlanta" which happens to be his favorite song on the album.

Richie and fam arrived next with Evan and Seany in tote. I missed my family. Seany was so excited! Evan came up and stood in line for the next hug. So good to see all of them. We had a really good time! Hung out with all of them and got to really have good conversations with the kids. They are finally old enough to where we can sit and chat for a bit. Then of course we all begin wrestling again. Good times!

Jen and Richie gave me my Christmas present early so they could explain it. They got me the cutest "Road Tripping" shirt and an Honestly shirt signed by the band. It is the cutest. They rock. "Honestly says Carolyn Rocks" and then they all signed it with quotes from each saying "We love you!" I love those kids...they rock!

Left to meet up with T and Jessica at the Black Bear Tavern to see Five Star Iris do an acoustic set. It was awesome. Not a big fan of the venue, not very welcoming, but 5SI rocked. I missed them so much! Dan saw me enter and smiled the smile that says it all "I know you, but I don't know where from" Wrong city buddy, I know. Got in a corner and Alan glanced my way and smiled a big smile. Yay! Listened to them rock out and I enjoyed every song. They rock!

Got to see them after their first set. Alan had some big news, but only gave me a small taste of it. I cannot wait my friend! Watched their second set and loved watching Rob make love to the mic....oooh he makes me happy just watching him. Beautiful boy...just beautiful. Got to meet Alan's wife Theresa, who is adorable and so sweet! Good times!

Crashed at home on the air mattress (or what my mom will forever call it "your boy's mattress) by the Christmas Tree (ruffled some of the ornaments) and headed to sleepy-land. Woke up hearing Jamesy's voice in the kitchen saying "I have to go wake up Nanie" I love that kid. Ate some darn good breakfast with the fam and hung out for a bit before getting ready to go.

Went to lunch with the parents on the way to the airport and then got dropped off. I am standby so I was in a hurry to get on the list so I could be on the flight I was requesting. Got to the terminal and awaited my name to be on the cleared list. Sat across a boy with a guitar and made eye contact several times. Smiles here and there. It was a good wait. I had my cd player on and was observing everything around me. My name never got put on the cleared list. The flight was full as were the others that day. Not cool. Went to Chili's inside the airport to drown my rejection sorrows.

Called everyone in my phonebook that I am allowed to call when "drowning my rejection sorrows" away and chatted about not making the flight. While eating queso and chips (yes, again) at the ATL airport, Nick and Cali were figuring out the game plan for picking me up, getting my stuff, and getting me ready for Amy J's party. I love my friends.

I start considering all my options and my parents volunteer to drive me down if I don't make the next flight so that I can make it home in time to work the next day. How great are they? Awesome idea except they are sick and it is an 8 hour drive one way so very not cool for them, but nice back up plan at least. Thankfully I got on the next flight and slept my way to Orlando.

"Leaving Atlanta. Won't be the last time fighting memories of what might have been and what it means to feel unwanted, I'm wondering will it break me down again?"

So happy to be back in Orlando. Met up with Nick. Perfect timing huh my friend? Raced home, literally. Love ya kid. Met up with Cali perfectly and got dressed for the evening's activites. We looked hot! Got to Amy J's and was invited in after giving the password. Decemberween is so strange. Got greeted by everyone's oohs and ahhs. So cute! Everyone looked so fun!

Had great food (thanks Amy J) and good times with laughter the entire night. Had the white elephant gift exchange and I ended up with a "white elephant" in the form of a white winter Dumbo that Nick had brought. YAY! J Janis looked unbelievably hot per usual and pics were taken. Spent a good bit of time there before heading out to Cali's house to meet her family and have some of her dad's famous drinks. Played pool with her cutie cousin and watched "Kill Bill" while being grossed out and then headed out for home to rest and catch up on some much needed laundry.

Crashed hard after finishing all of my stuff I needed to do and then got to sleep in, thankfully, before heading back into work. Got some news that was pretty devastating, but probably for the better. I will explain later on. Had a pretty good day and headed home for sleep. Got up and went to work today. It was a much better day. Very productive and made me feel better about things in the future.

Got home today after going to the grocery store. Tye came in the apartment in a rush and moved the chairs while J Janis and Ting carried in a HUGE flat screen TV to add to our living room. Sweet! Been watching it all night while Tye has been out. Also, been freezing all night while chatting with friends and doing this blog. About to end this mess and go to sleep.

Sometimes I wonder why I must be so detailed in my day to day activities. I am not whitty or sacrastic in my blogs, not indepth or meaningful in explaining certain outlooks on things, not poetic or underlying about my thoughts. Just simply stating what happens in my life. Sometimes I wonder why I do things this way and I know others do to. I enjoy just getting things out and writing all of what I feel at that moment and this is the outcome. I can't try to change it. I just write what I write and that is that. I am done.

Going back a bit...

Thursday was great fun! Was at work for the good part of the day and then left to meet up with Ian to go shopping. We headed to the Florida Mall to get some NY clothes...such good times. Ian, you make me laugh. All good times. We had an elegant dinner at The Olive Garden where the waitor totally thought we were a couple and we did everything to convince him of that. Our waitress rocked and we were rolling out. It just happened to be Cali, Courtney, Mark and I's Olive Garden...and we sat very close to "our" table. Good times! *grin* "Closing Time" Thanks for the call my friend!

Got a text from K saying "want to grab a bite, I'm in town" Random and excellent timing. Meet K at my place after Ian headed to a second dinner with JHey and we headed out to PI to meet up with some peeps for a bit. Saw LON! Rock on my friend! Met up with Nick and Dwight, Carla, Daniela, Cecile, Eduardo, and the "I'm bored" Anna. Good times! Went to see Frankie and The West End Boys at the Beach Club for kicks. Ha! Yea....K no, you don't sound like that. Funny times!

We did a tour of all the clubs and danced the night away. Good times with good friends! Great surprise from K! Headed home where K and I met up with Tye and Cole. Cole played bartender and got Tye trashed. Good times! *grin* This NEVER happens! Fun to watch...I think he was having fun! We all had some of the famous peppermint ice cream with chocolate syrup. Yummy! Got less than two hours sleep and headed on to my wonderful day. It was a really productive day and good times at that!

Headed home and met up Amy J. Headed to downtown Orlando for the final ORLANDO show of BIG SKY! What a fun night. Cali, Tony, Rick, Katrina, Gianina, Amy J, Julie, Kim, Jennie, Nikki, Jen, Shannon, Anna, Cecile, Daniela, Carla, MIKEY, DAN (That's a BIG 10-4) and more...craziness! We met tons of new friends as well! It's amazing how many people you meet just walking around and placing BIG SKY BAND stickers on EVERYONE! And I was so lucid...it's amazing! Good times! Met some fun guys from The Boardwalk, some MySpace friends, and random fans....great times! This place was PACKED and so fun! Everyone was singing and enjoying BIG SKY! I miss them already...good thing Gainesville is still coming up! January 22nd baby! Mark was very cool and took his "preacher" position at the door and made sure to thank every single person specifically. My other favorite part of the show was when he confessed his love to his girlfriend ON STAGE. So sad that he had to wait until the band "called it quits" before he could feel that he could do that. He sang Journey's "Faithfully" to her and it was very sweet and meaningful. Really cool moment! "It's not easy being the girlfriend of a lead singer in a band...thank you for everything!" This is why I love Mark even more. Had �Mission Ben� to complete for K, so we did and it was funny�good times. Ben is a good sport and as K yelled �YES!� Good times, thanks for everyone�s help on that!

After the show, we went to Denny�s (D�nny�s) and I swear I was gonna gnaw off my arm. Amy J, we have to stop steaming up the windows�geez. So hungry�and we finally got served and good times were had. Yum. Good chats about �autistic blenders� and �epileptic toasters� Tony freaking cracks me up! Every little under the breath thing he says�.if I hear it that is�cracks ME UP! �Let me write that in my live journal� *grin*

Thanks Cali for covering my butt�literally. *grin* Got home around 4ish and headed to bed�.nice warm comfy bed�good times! Got to sleep in a good bit on my DAY OFF on Saturday! Finally got up to accompany JHey while patiently awaiting �The Cable Man� (who looked nothing like the add, by the way) *grin* We got Neil, who actually introduced himself as �The Cable Man� which made my day. He saw my shirt (Big Sky�s final tour shirt) and started commenting on it, so yea he got a copy on his way out the door. He was excited! He did a great minimal job of hooking up our cable and we were set to go. HAPPINESS. Digital cable in the living room and regular cable in our own rooms. A tiny bit on the disappointing side is the fact that the main reason I wanted cable was to catch up on my video watching and the ONLY channel that is fuzzy is MTV. Figures�guess it is a reminder that I said I would ban MTV from my eyes so there ya go�fuzziness for that darn 1%. Bite Me MTV! Who wants to watch you anyways!

So watched �Top Model� all day cause we became addicted. I hate those types of shows, but geez was I into this one for some strange reason. Figured out plans for the evening when I got the call from J Janis about our date. He wanted to me to call some dude that I had never met before and invite him over. Umm..okay. I am just that type of person, so I did. Called this guy Mike (who from J Janis said was attractive) �What kind of wine should I bring?� Umm�you want to bring wine? Okay! So a few minutes later I get a knock on my door. Mike, who works at Disney-MGM Studios GR seemed very cool. Immediately broke open the white wine with a �smoky kick� and proceeded to pour large amounts into wine glasses. This was interesting. Just chatted with small talk as we waited for the crew to emerge. Libby made her way in as did J Janis. Got the troops together and caravanned down to Austin�s Coffee and Film. Met up with Katrina, Gianina and Nick there while the �band� played in the back. *giggle* OH dear. Erika�s photos were awesome�hanging on the wall, they would have looked great in my apartment, oh if I only had $300.00. Nice! It was cool to see her work and support. We got hungry pretty quickly though and headed out to Panera by Rollins. Headed to Park Ave Cds after that and we all found something we enjoyed and purchased away, getting free stuff all over the place. I love that music shop!

Everyone met up at my place (after the whole �lights� thing�thanks Nick!) and relaxed while enjoying the famous peppermint ice cream with chocolate syrup (or without in Nick�s case). Laughed for quite awhile and decided that making a couch and watching �Freaky Friday� would be the next option. Had bottlecaps and beer. *giggle* and had good times watching �Jake� and �Ryan� *grin*

Got a call that was pretty devastating�talked for quite awhile and tried to help solve the mystery and problem. Not sure if it will ever get solved. Was a depressing moment and I feel sorry for those involved. Wish I could do more�.

Hung out for a bit more until the eyes started shutting on their own. The ladies left and Nick crashed on �K�s bed� and I just floated on my mattress�so comfortable. Good times! Had a strange dream�.very weird. Woke up, not really wanting to wake up�.and got ready for the day. Got to turn on TV for the first time in the morning and catch some morning cartoons and movie. �Meet me in St. Louis� was on! Granted, I own the film, but still�seeing it on TV was totally fun and exciting! LOVED it!

Headed out and poor FL boy Nick was freezing�ha ha ha! Now YOU need a heater huh?

Been having fun at work lately. Keeps getting better then more I am in my role and experiencing it. Good times!

Been having lots of fun lately. Just a quick shout out to all my buds�so glad that I have been able to get to know everyone better and be able to hang out so much! Thanks for all the support of the bands, life in general, and good times! You guys ALL rock! And thanks to all the people who think I�m hot�where did that come from? *giggle*

I HAVE COMMENTS BACK! WHOO HOO! I just noticed that my comments are back on my website (by no doing of my own) after JP left me a comment...GOOD TIMES! So please, feel free to comment again. This makes me so happy that they magically appeared, but then angers me cause this proves that I had nothing to do with them going away originally and the fact that it took FOREVER to get them back. Ugh! Regardless, they are back now and let's hope they don't go away again.

So last night was great times! Met up with Gianina and Katrina at my apartment, gave them the grand tour and then headed out to Downtown Disney for the evening where we discussed our "creative plans" and ran into a lot of the FYC people: Lisa R., Julie, Kim, Sandra (Julie's German friend) and the Canadian friend as well (crap I forgot her name already...Christina?), Jason ("So why don't you slide?") Ha! "It's the FYC girls!" SO funny that we are known as that! *giggle*

Ate at Earl of Sandwich, which rocks my world...yum. Their chicken florentine with spinach and portobella mushrooms (drooling as I type) Soooo good. Then, got our free sample of "peppermint bark" at Giradelli's. Yummy. Headed over to AMC to get our tickets and was magnetically drawn into Virgin. We just kinda all went that way, funny how we didn't even have to talk about it. It's our new PI home. *grin*

Immediately saw a sign for a band that was preforming that night at Virgin for an in-store preformance. "8 o'clock" CRAP...it was 9. "Maybe they are still around" So we are in search of the "fishes" and of course we spot them shortly after the quest began. We are too good! Going up the escalator as they are coming down and Katrina starts talking to them and they were beginning to talk to us as we ride up and they hit the bottom of their side. They were like "Can you come back down so we can talk?" So cute!

We meet them and they all seem like really cool guys so we talked for a bit and then headed back up the escalator to get their cd, posters, stickers and stuff. Very cool!

Saw "The Incredibles" and these guys behind us were hilarious "Are you from here?" And that was it...okay. "Luke, I AM your Father" *grin*

Got a text from Andy "pi tonight?" *grin* Too tired...There is too much going on sometimes...I want to do it all..

Came back to my apartment and listened to Renata *grin* Great music...not so great on the lyrical side, which is sad cause they could do so much better in that department. They need our expertise in lyrical content...I could so assist. Or think I could anyways, but beautifully made music either way...and they were really sweet and HOT! So there you go...

Laid on the floor and listened to Gavin Degraw after partaking in some very good peppermint ice cream with chocolate sauce with the girls...yummy!

Crashed hard and woke up quite early for work. It was a good day. Did two Town Hall meetings and did my presentation for them both. Got a lot finished today (happiness) and I feel better about work already. I feel like I have a lot to prove and I am still hearing "You're no John Dontrich" I know...I know. I just feel like I can never do enough...still just barely staying afloat...I want to exceed and it's not there yet.

Whew...lots to do. Got a pin from Lee Cockrell today at work for a guest letter. Very cool! He rocks...the pin has stars on it and says "Thanks for making magic" YAY!

Came home and crashed hard. I was so tired. Took a very long nap and now I am up watching "While You Were Sleeping" and trying to get tired again....good times.

Let's go back to Saturday night when I met up with Nick at the PI "boo fu" parking lot along with Jake and Jerry. Love it that we are so "hidden" about what we are doing. Those kids cracked me up. Glad I took photos. *smirk* Got everything together and headed to the HOB to meet up with Heather and Gin. How much do I love those girls? They cracked me up all night!

We watched Irrational and they were pretty darn good. I really liked their "sell out smash hit" song "We are the same" and their version of "Send me an Angel"..."CHILL! She's coming!" Ha! Nick! Good times rockin out to them! Garrett was fun to watch! *grin*

After their set, I was pretty hungry so while we were "taking a musical break" we were walking out to leave and I hear my name, turn around and there is Chris, "What are you doing here?" He was doing sound for Kabang "I'm sorry" *grin* He's good times.

"They get paid minimum wage for having a small d***!" HA! The kids in front of us were dying laughing. YOU CRACK me up!

Jerry and Jake were heading out to meet up with their "other friends" so Gin states as loud as she can "It was nice to meet you, sorry I'm a B*t*h!" This girl could not get me to stop laughing...she was so random. Note: She was not being a b*t*h, but it was funny that she thought so.

So we go to Taco Bell. Why? Cause it's cheap and open. Sounded good to us. We had *way* too much fun there, let me tell ya. Including making my voicemail way too creative (no need to call, I've already had to change it-Thanks Tony!) and laughing our butts off! "It's pretty hot, you might want to be alone" Thanks for the warning!

Decided right then and there we wanted to do karaoke...so we hunt down a karaoke bar and find Thirsty Wales off Kirkman. Tuesday and Saturday nights with Troy. Rock on. Such a good spot! Gin and Heather blew me away with their talents! WOW! Nick and I had "specials" and I eventually had enough...so Gin and I went and sang Mr. Big's "I'm the one that wants to be with you...." FUN TIMES! I think we laughed more than we sang, but it was fun and that is all that mattered right? They had SUCH an awesome selection, from The Killers to Switchfoot, Snow Patrol to Sugarcult...ROCK ON! We are going back and bringing the crew...

Got home and crashed...next day I woke up leisurely and headed to Cali's. Got to hang with Neo for a bit and then Tony, Cali and I headed out for lunch at Froggers. Good ranch dressing!

Got to Epcot at a decent afternoon time and started our search for Hidden Mickeys. We did pretty darn good (but then again we did have a cheat sheet *grin*). Met up with Nick very soon after and then Gianina and Katrina as well! We had a good group by the end of the night. We went through all the countries and collected memories from each by doing our masks. So cute!

Highlights: Cali and I dancing with Los Carnales (singing group in Mexico) and Cali "doing backup" for a Spanish song. SO CUTE! Nick "My other shirt is trendy" again *grin* Tony cracking us up ALL day! "I'm gonna put that in my live journal!" *LAUGH OUT LOUD* Katrina, Gianina, Cali and I distributing duties upon the boat (GOOD TIMES! I am in the psychotender-don't YOU want to know what that is? *grin* YOU WILL!)

So much fun! After doing Test Track and going back to China to get "Happiness and Love", we were leaving the parking lot and we all split up to go to our separate cars parked in several different areas of the parking lot when we look up and something catches our eyes. It was a greenish-blueish shooting star. What a moment! At first, we all thought it was a random firework (an idea not too far-fetched seeing as though we are near several theme parks) but it was a random solo shot in the dark and totally a shooting star. Amazing moment!

We went to TGIFridays and listened to the music while chatting about everything we could think of, including the random shooting star that everyone had noticed in separate areas (I wonder who else might have been noticing the same shooting star in a totally different location, amazing to think about, huh?) and how excited we all were to go see Honestly the following day....

Which leads me to today. Work was actually okay, after being extremely overwelming when I arrived this morning. It got better and things started making more sense after I laid it all out. People were great and happiness started to occur, UNTIL I heard the news. Poor Honestly's RV broke down! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Thank you MAC for calling! You rock! Send the boys our love and sorrows at the same time! *grin*

SO SAD! So that is the end of our evening. We had three car loads of people: Nick, Jake, Gianina, Katrina, Julie and German friend (I am sure Julie and her friend like me calling her that *oops*), Jennie, Amy J, Taby, Grace, Cali and me. Wow. What a group...and ROADTRIPPING it to Jacksonville! BUT I feel worse for the guys, I know they were excited about it and really wanting to go...sucks for them and their transportation issue more than just ruining my evening...ah well. It is being fixed as we speak. We are getting together to do dinner and a movie instead. Good repair times.

Gotta get ready...just remember "You can't be the first, but you can be the next" I can't believe their shirts read that! Actually...I can!

Last night I met up with Joey Boone at the Ale House and had too much fun venting and chatting about life and our futures. Met up with Nina Hor-ROCKS over at Uno's parking lot to chat a bit. I love her. Bluntness and honesty. I need that...and I am so thankful she gives it to me and "cares". Thank you always Nina!

Left to hurry home to meet up with Amy J and Billie. Made it just in time. Got ready and headed out to meet up with Nick and his friend, Katrina and Giannina. Good times at Devaney's Too. It was in a shopping mall (reminded me of Lost and Found) but had a outdoor stage in the back. So fun! *grin* "Isn't it cool?" Ha!

It was *so* cold....so we had to keep warm somehow. *giggle* It was pretty darn packed. Tons of UCF kids (this must have been a normal hangout for them). Still Naive rocked....Dan saw me and came over to say hello...I love Dan! Jimmy and Matt were hanging around (don't know Roy yet, but he was chatting with people too). I am pretty sure that Pete Thorton was there (he always reminds me of one of the guitar players in one of the WPB bands), but I am pretty sure it was Pete.

Lots of frat boys and sorority girls there. You would have been in heaven my friend (K moment *grin*) In fact, *I* was in heaven. These boys were hot *and* love music....perfect! *grin* Too bad they were all idiots. But at least they were fun to look at!

Two complaints: First of all, I don't *hate* smokers, but I *hate* their habit of smoking. Geez...please stop blowing it anywhere near me, or holding the cigerette anywhere near my face. UGH! Sickening, to the point where I was not enjoying myself at one point. Of course that quickly faded when I tried my best to breathe into my cupped hand, but still...geez. Reminder though, I don't hate the people, just the habit...please be kind and smoke elsewhere...like in your car...*giggle*

Second complaint...why must they have a meat market contest before Big 10-4 came on? Geez. It was actually painful for me to watch. Yes, it is in all good and fun, but the emcee "DJ" was drunk off his butt and being a bit insensitive to the girls in the contest. I really wanted to deck him, but refrained. People were catching on quickly that he was a moron and drunk on top of that. The contest was so stupid and I don't even know if there was a winner, but thankfully Big 10-4 made up for that horrible pre-show and we moved on to the best aggression release show I have ever been to.

"Well push will come to shove so wipe that smile off your face!" I love Big 10-4!

Being right next to the speaker is not my favorite spot during a show, but being as close as possible rocked. Watching the entire crowd doing the same movements and singing every word to every song ROCKED! It must be so cool for Dan and the band to watch that!

SO I adore Billie..she's got plans in the making that are gonna rock...and we are all participating, so be prepared to be open-minded, creative and fun! "We're gonna be BIG stars!"

So today I was *suppose* to go to WPB to see The Curve play, but tickets were sold out so Amy J and I decided not to waste our time and just hang out at home. I am going with Nick to see some bands at HOB tonight and rock out!

GOOD TIMES ahead!

"You promise that you've never lied, cross your heart and hope to die, well stick that needle in your eye and I thank you for your precious time. Say you got the best of me cause I can't eat and I can't sleep and I sure as hell can't...I sure as hell can't sleep cause I am on my last nerve in case you haven't heard how I burn with ever word. I close my eyes, you kick me in my side, well I am still alive...I said F*** You I'm still alive!"

YAY! Tonight is Big 10-4! I cannot wait!

Today is Andy's birthday. Happy Birthday my friend. Last night, I picked up Carla and headed over to PI to meet up with the group to celebrate Andy's birthday. He's so cute "I am on my way...to my third...where r u?" *grin* We finally get there and find a happy Andy on his way to be happier. Found Cecile, Sarah and Daniela. Carla-Girl you are too much...thanks for the refreshments. One started it all...good times!

Saw PJ! YAY! Bruce rocks my socks off...at the bar...he is the man. "Dirty Pop" came on and I was in my element...first Sarah got a Moroccan, I got some random dude, and Cecile got "DRC" Fun times...oops time for a refill..moving on.

Went to 8-Trax with Andy and Carla. "Oh Andy you're so fine, you're so fine you blow our minds, hey Andy" LOL and "Tonight I'm gonna party like I just turned 29!" *grin* You crack me up my friend...good times at 8-Trax believe it or not.

Headed back to Motions where we hooked up with the gals again, but I wanted to check out the beach club cause it was so strange to be at PI and not go there the entire night. I headed there and saw EDWARD! and then heard Stormbringer and almost walked right back out, but instead I went to see who was at the bar. Saw Derek (the Speedway guy) who we met on Monday. He was too cute "where have you been?" and I said at the same time "what are you doing here" oops. Supposedly at some point on Monday I had answered "yes" to a "are you gonna be here on Thursday" question from him. *grin* It was right near closing time when I arrived so that looked kinda bad I guess. Hung out with him and his friends Mike and Gary (Gary who of which gave me a huge hug when he left...too sweet). Good to randomly run into him when he thought it was a "plan".

LON was the DJ and when I saw him I immediately freaked out and he did as well. Love that kid. He only has one song to play after the band's last set and he said "We have time for only one more song and it's a request I am sending out to Carolyn" HE PLAYED ME WHEATUS! I love that kid...so it was me...and Derek and Edward (at times) dancing in the middle of the floor to "Teenage Dirtbag" Good times! "You rock LON!"

Found my friends and had a great time trying to leave PI...dropped them off and crashed at home. Woke up to a "Beautiful Day" and three missed calls. *grin* What a great morning. Saw JHey and gave him a welcoming morning message and he, of course, asked me why I was so happy. Yea I know my friend...it's been awhile, but it's getting "back to good"

Talked to JODY today! I missed you my friend. I haven't talked with her in about four years, sadly enough....craziness...great to catch up! Can't wait to see you my friend!

Went to meet up with Beth and Chad at Disney-MGM Studios. Got there early and while waiting for them, I sat on a bench near "Who wants to me a Millionaire". This little girl was sitting with her dad about four benches away from me and I smiled at them casually after making random eye contact. The little girl seemed to be around 6 years old and walked right over to me after the smile occurred. Her dad looked at her questionally.

She asked me what my name was and told me hers was "Erica Nicole Wiggs" umm...should teach your child not to give her full name. *grin* And she kept me company for the half hour that I waited for my friends. She played with my hair, drew yellow stars on my face with "paint" in the form of invisible leaf marks, chatted with me about Disney and "my boss", told me about the snow in Wisconsin and gave me a another reason to like "some" childen. I enjoyed her...her dad told her not to annoy me (she kept trying to sit on me, braid my hair, etc) and I told her dad she could play with my hair all day long if she wanted. She was relaxing me. So cute!

It's amazing how simple things can make me smile.

Met up with Beth and Chad finally and left my friend "Erica Nicole Wiggs" and headed to eat lunch, watch Four for a dollar (they rock my world!), watch Beauty and the Beast, do the Tower of Terror and then visited with my good friend Scott at the Rockin Roller Coaster. Headed home after that to recover from last night some more.

Been hanging out and relaxing a bit. Catching up yet again and been busy coordinating and making plans for all of our upcoming events. So much to do and so little time.

Going to grab dinner with Joey Boone and Nina Horrocks...then BIG 10-4....CANNOT WAIT!

So today was about my thirteenth straight day of work and I am done. Stick a fork in me cause I really need a break. The past couple of days have been improving, I can't lie, although it's not like it's been great. The news that we have been getting isn't great...it's challenging and I am slowly figuring it all out. It's getting there...thankfully I have great support! Good times!

Yesterday, I did candlelight assistant on top of COT and rode around on *my* Segway in plaid..boy did I get noticed. When riding by Canada, Off Kilter was playing and they all looked up at me while playing and I gave them the rock on sign and they grinned and waved...they rock! Then, went by Morocco and Mo'Roccin was preforming and I did the same and the lead singer stopped playing his fiddle to wave to me...I adore him!

Segway'ed around with O'Kelly, visited with Beth and Chad who are visiting from Atlanta...so good to see them. Then headed on down to China to "test" a rumor. It was true...we could order food from Lotus in our costume from the kitchen...rock on. So guess where we had dinner at? Yep! Good times..then *my* Segway died...and Linda had to cart me back to the front...then my segway began to work again...ugh!

Came home last night to Ting, Libby, Ian and JHey...hung out for a bit, caught up on a bunch of stuff and felt so much better. Cali came over to pick up some stuff and we bonded for a bit before she had to head home.

I crashed hard and then woke up at the break of dawn to get ready for work when I found JHey still on the couch, where I left him the night before and everything still on. Poor kid...so tired he just fell asleep right then and there.

Work was rough, but had some good times in it too. Got to spend some time with Dave and joked while trying to figure out the darn training schedule...ooh I hate schedules, but it's part of the job. "Let's just quit" Okay...so we got up and then came back. *grin* Dave cracks me up.

Went to lunch with the rest of the COTs and then went to figure out the rest of my drama. Got most of the month done, but still have so much more to do. However, I am done for the next three days. Today was my Friday and I appreciate that and am gonna enjoy my days off until I get back to work and all my drama.

After work today, I talked to Joey Boone. He's coming into town tomorrow...Hooters my friend? *grin* Went and ran errands and visited Cali at work. She's too funny! Been working on my Online Driving Test (almost finished) and watching 40 Days and 40 Nights. JHEY and I have decided to get cable...thank GOODNESS! It's about time...so I can finally be caught up with everyone else. I can't wait!

Gonna head to PI tonight for Andy's birthday celebration. Shall be fun if I don't fall asleep before getting ready! *grin* Carla will be there and I love that girl...good times with her always!

Went to the grocery store and then came home to clean and rest before the PI craziness begins again...and hence starts my time off...good times!
