come they told me

it is the shortest day of the year. it can only get better from here.

i have a lot to blog about. but don't know how to put it. a few pictures to post. but i left my camera on the window sill in madison. i'm my own pain in the ass.

i hope you and yours have a very happy christmahannukwanzikah.

until i see you again


kait, amy, connie, originally uploaded by conniemg6.

refreshing beyond explanation. a night out with some of my best, people that know the real me, the ones that i have been through so much with. there was something missing. moments away from deciding to catch a plane to chicago for the night. instead, an uptown drink. its people like you that keep my spirit alive and allow me to have faith that my life isn't done here. love you lots.

mary's corner

apparently jennifer aniston and vince vaughn are kapootz. ....man, i really suck at this. i'm just not the celeb gossip queen you once knew. :(

cuz i'm a million different people from one day to the next

it's taken me a while but i must say this. after all that has happened, all the emails that i've gotten in the past few weeks, i have been saddened. i am still on voice and must say that one email that i got broke my heart.

jill was who i strived to be like in the org. she was all encompassing. she had the heart of the students inside herself and she was street smart with the corporate clients. i wanted to be jill when i grew up. but, that never happened. one friend replied that he felt shunned because he had a voice, because he stood up for what he thought was right, because he wanted his vision to be seen by others. i felt the exact same way. because i felt strongly about some things that were going down, i felt belittled and silenced.

don't get me wrong, although my family sees absolutly nothing positive that has come from my 3 years of involvement, i do. i do not want to know the connie that would've been without it. 98% of my memories from that time in my life make me smile so big people around me wonder what is wrong with me. i only wish that that percent could be higher.

but, to you JILLO, there's always room for you. :) luv you, miss you, one day, i hope to be like you.
