I'm numb.
I've lost family members and friends that I've lost contact with. I've dealt with terminal illness, stupid decisions, and suicide.
I've never experienced this type of uncertainty followed by finality.
A little backstory:

I don't remember the last time being quite this insane... Granted I had someone helping me pack/move everything AND a new lease already signed.
I have to be out of my apartment in a week, and I don't have a place to move into or a job lined up in Tulsa... In fact, I don't even know when the BF and I are moving to Tulsa.

I've come to realize I'm not good enough. I'm not good enough to have a steady job. I'm not good enough for most people to stick by me. I'm not even good enough for the person I love. I'm just not.
People keep telling me that to be good enough for other people, I have to be good enough for me.
Why?

While that is personal to me, it probably bores most of you. I can understand that. My friends get tired of hearing it too. It's just how I am.
I hope to get back to more personal things now. Of course I will have my rants, that's just me.

F*$^ Yeah!!Election Day has come and gone in America. I have to say, I was VERY nervous about the outcome of the 2012 Presidential Election. Too many of my intelligent friends were blinded by the lies and hatred spewed by one of the candidates. I was worried that my list of friends could possibly reflect the popular and electoral votes. Oddly enough, it did to a point.

Republicans today do not stand for what the party was originally founded to support. The things they are pushing for today, are completely the opposite as why as a young, naive 18 year old I registered as a Republican (shocker huh? Me, a registered republican?)

Tank is my baby, anyone who reads this blog knows that. He's a spoiled rotten little brat. He rules my free time (which at the moment, is not very often).

I'm going to teach you how to keep repairmen from wanting to return to your place. Basically, how to meet new people without putting yourself out there.
Step 1: Rent an apartment where one has to walk past your bedroom window to get from the parking lot to your front door.
Step 2: Leave bedroom window cracked open all the time.

Any great adventures?
I had my first vacation in several years, it was great. The boyfriend and I went to the Illinois River with his friends to camp and float. I float this river every year, but I don't think I have ever camped out there.
