Plays Well With Others

I’ll never wake up!

Our second day of the new century, and still nothing bad has happened … nothing has blown up, no computer meltdowns … nothing at all …

Like I said yesterday, I’ve been in a cleaning frenzy for the past few days … I tore down the computer and put it in storage, and even tossed out so many of the papers I seem to collect throughout the months.

I’ve even heard from the girl I might room with … share expenses, whatever you want to call it … we dont even really know each other, and plan a meeting next week. Last night I sent an email out to her telling her a little about myself … just to get the ball rolling.

She sent me an email back letting me know about her also. She isn’t anal about keeping things clean, but likes a tidy house … so we agree on that … she enjoys cleaning, which is great because I dont enjoy it … she doesnt have too much furniture, so we can use all of my stuff, I can probably furnish an entire apartment.

She is quiet, reads alot and spends weekends goes to visit family … sounds good so far. She says since she’s new to the area, she doesnt have friends and won’t throw parties, but doesnt mind if I throw a party or two, as long as I let her know beforehand … no problem … like I’m Mr. Party.

Now we get to the interesting part. I personally dont like negative people … she said that she tries not to be negative, but has been dealing with stuff lately and hasn’t been feeling that great … she added that she’d deal with it on her own time.

Here is the sentence that caused me to think a little, though: “There are a few things that we should discuss about me and what I am going thru right now medically and emotionally, just so you know.”

Hmm … what does that mean? Am I gonna get chopped up into little pieces some night? Does she go hysterical all of a sudden? I’ll definately be asking plenty of questions about that … I’m not ready to be a baby sitter, or get into drama … no drama … drama is bad.

Katie can’t lie … some people, they have these feeling of guilt and then spill the beans. Me on the other hand, I dont care … I mean maybe if I actually felt like you people cared about me, or actually talked to me, but I hardly hear from anyone that reads this … except for the six or seven that email me.

So, Greggypoo will not be getting a piece of the Katie pie … no Katie pie for Greg. Nothing. And I was all set to lose the contest too.

By the way, Katie made me do it. 😛

Thanks Amanda for letting me know that a lot is two words in my guestbook … because I’m really keen on grammar and spelling in this journal. Here are some other two word combinations:

Who cares!, Shut up!, Bite me!, Goto hell (okay, that last one was three, but I think y’all are getting the idea … )

Actually I dont mind emails if you feel you need to correct my grammar or sentence structure … I’ll store it in my head and call it up when the next case comes along … however, I just type when I’m putting this journal together, so what spills out of my head is what you see on these pages … I dont really care to spend my time being a copy editor as well, I’d never get this done.

When I’m writing essays I’ll spend hours and days checking every little thing, but in here I dont care to put that much energy into it … this is a journal, my daily happenings … my thoughts … it’s not an essay.

Someone wrote that Katie needs to add more emotion to her journal …

I try not to fill my journal with angsty entries, full of me sobbing every night about every little thing that hurts my feelings … but I also try to balance it out with enough emotion so you can get a sense of what makes me tick, my likes, dislikes, etc. Sure sometimes I push the envelope, but that makes like interesting … I mean every now and then you have to put a photo of a very large naked lady sitting on her husbands face in your journal … see if people react. But I’ve also kept very few secrets from you … I mean you can read about my first kiss, or my stalkers, about my friend who wanted to jump my bones, or even about my issues with death … I try to let it all out … I mean most of this I dont talk about, but in here I feel like I should be able to tell it all … most people that have written to me enjoy my willingness to be open … I even have a question box you can use to ask me anything you want … anonymously.

So, do I think Katie needs to add more emotion to her journal … well, it’s not really for me to say how people should put there journals together, its a private issue for everyone … some of us can be open, some of us have problems being open … some of us let our friends know about our journals, others of us would just die if if people we know knew about it … but I digress. I’d love to find out more about what makes Katie tick … you dont have to be angsty to be honest about your feelings. My favorite journals are the ones where I feel like I can actually get to know the writer. Sure it is scary putting your feelings out there … I mean it’s always scary, but if you really want people to know you, then you have to tell those stories … sure it’s easy to write about your day, sure it’s easy to complain in every entry … or to make people laugh, but you have to balance it out by getting into those deep dark parts of yourself too … that’s what a journal is about. Otherwise, you may as well just call it a newsletter.

I dont know how I’m going to wake up tomorrow … I mean I’ve been off of work for practically two weeks … from Dec. 24 to Jan. 2. Little by little, I’ve been waking up later and later … now I’m getting up around 10A or 11A … tomorrow morning I have to get up at 7A. Accckkkk!! How am I going to do it? My alarm has two alarms that I can set separately … so I’ve got the buzzer to go off first at 6:50A, then the radio will start blaring at 7:15A … I should be set … of course, today I had it set the same and must’ve turned it off in my sleep.

I’m not Mr. Religion … I mean my mothers side of the family is catholic, my fathers side probably doesnt even have a religion … and I fall into the middle … if asked, I say catholic, because I did the whole communion and bible school thing … but dont really believe in the whole catholic experience. I mean you can pray anywhere … its not just a church thing … you can believe in a God, without spending every weekend in his/her house. Anyway … off of this subject … the reason I brought all of this up is because there is this show on TV … a religious preacher type of show … the preacher lady is named Joyce, and she usually has skirt suits on, and has short brown hair, and sometimes wears glasses, and seems pretty no nonsense. Well, there is something about this lady that draws me to watch the show.. she reminds me of a teacher I once had.. that was also very no nonsense … I always turn the channel when it gets to the point of asking for money. I hate religion that is always trying to pump money out of you …

There’s a show that will be returning on NBC on January 10th, called Freaks and Geeks. This site is from the shows producer and has quite a bit of interesting information about the show …

I hope you’ll all tune in on Jan. 10th to see the show … it’s really a good show if you give it a chance. I’ve also designed a fan site, at another members request … so visit that one too.
