'cuz i gotta have faith
tomorrow is either the beginning of something good or bad in my life. problem is, i won't know for at least a week. not looking forward to the wait, but very excited to finally know. if you believe in the whole praying bit, throw a few my way. i'm taking anything i can get.******************************
the past few weeks have given me a few emails that i appreciated more than the senders know. i have good friends - i realize i have it better than most. if only this computer worked faster than it does. takes me 15 mins (no kidding) to log into my blogger just to type a few sentences. i'm savoring my time in here.
a quick (sober) update on life.
christmas was not so merry in this house. mainly because we all had the flu.... not fun and makes eating shrimp cocktail a little scary.
car went into the ditch twice in 9 days. once on dec 23 on the way to grandma's christmas - grace was with me, on the phone to her b/f when it happened. second was minutes before the ball dropped in the mid-west. winter - an exciting time of year for me so far.
grace and i went to "dancing with the stars tour" at the bradley center in milwaukee. we missed our exit and ended up in the ghetto... called uncle for directions. believe his direct quote was "that's a really fucked up exit - don't ask for directions". which was great advice seeing as though my great idea would have been to drive through mcdonalds to ask. the nearest one seemed to have just had a shoot-out. i chuckled, grace wet her pants. good stuff... good real life stuff.
other than that, not a whole hell of a lot in the world of connie. always wishing i had someone here. the only person that seems to really get me here is the 38 year old girl that has cancer at work. she and i are totally on the same page with just about anything. i may have gone insane months ago had she not been there. 6 months at the Star News was on the 25th. exciting stuff.
*********************
everything seems to be pointing towards yes. everything that i see on t.v. or read. i hope to god it's no. isn't that just how most things work. you have something weighing on your mind and then you see things that are exactly or relate to that something everywhere. it's been a heavy 2 months. hoping to be lighter soon. very soon.
