had a big night friday night that involved dinner for toms b-day and the cranker and electric light with renee and nathan, and not much else.
last night was tjs 21st. good times. his friends are sweet, dad set up the undercover place really well and no one got too drunk. I didn't go out after, too tired.
Today I've spent in my pjs, buying books online :)

| the day the music died |
[Jun. 27th, 2009|03:45 pm] |
where were you when it happened? At work. With a student. midway through giving morning medications. It was a long day. And yes, when I get home, I cried, not a few tears, but sobbing, painful streams of salty water. It's a big deal to me.
I first got into michael jackson when we went to disneyland in LA and saw the 3d show with him it, and also a strange flying creature.
From that point onwards some of the most important parts of my childhood can be associated with which album I was listening to at the time. Dancing around our house in alice springs to thriller, and wondering how it was possible that he sung the song AND managed to do "woo"s etc on top of the words. Lying in a big cumfy bed in my mums auntys place in canada when I first started having panic attacks. lazing by the beach in bali listening to Bad and thinking how appropriate liberian girl was for my location. Dangerous, do you wanna get up? Jam. haha my first introduction to any sort of rap breakdown in a song. Coming adelaide for christmas and staying in my aunty and uncles little appartment listening nonstop to history, anything, everything, anything for money. Blood on the dancefloor keeping me occupied on many road trips, and leading to the question of, what in fact, is morphine? ironic now that I give it to patients almost daily.The concert, which I have safely stored away on tape, and marveling at how amazing his stage precence is, and being far too excited about the other musicians who performed. How excited I was the first time I heard, you rock my world, the first new MJ in years. Invincible, high school, a completely different kind of Jackson, but still, love, speachless.
Michael Jackson started my love of music, he's been there through all the moving, all the traveling, all the fights, all the fun. I've never lost my love for his music, and I never will.
Farewell old friend, thanks for being there when no one else was. |

| Happy day three |
[Dec. 26th, 2008|05:32 pm] |
things that made me happy today:
lying in bed cuddeling kat, laughing, take away food for my hangover, not having to work |
|

| Day 2 of happy things |
[Dec. 25th, 2008|12:54 pm] |
-mum bringing in a xmas stocking filled with lovely things
-the huge basket of kitchen goods I recieved last night
-expensive french champagne and croissants for breakfast
-seeing my grandparents and being invited to come rade my grandmas cupboards for crockery
-wonderful presents including cook books, crockery, wine glasses and butterfly things
-the awesome water bottle dad got me! (if you know me you'll understand)
-laughing at bing crosby
and I anticipate more happiness when nan arrives for lunch and then we head up the hill to my aunty and uncles place. and perhaps this evening I may see kat, which would also make me happy :)
(thanks to everyone who gave advice regarding my last post. akira hit the nail right on the head with what I was thinking anyway, so feel free to read her response if you want to know what I'm going to do! haha.)
Love to all my lj friends, Merry Xmas, thanks for sharing the strange corners of my mind with me for all these years, you all know me much better than some of my 'real life' friends haha xox |

What is it with women. I'm so tired of that point in the relationship where they start with the "you're too good for me" crap. I mean, what the hell does that even mean? ugh. I know my family are impressive, they've done a lot, and I know that I've done a lot as well...but that's just my life, my path, it doesn't make me any better than anyone else! *sigh*
We also talked about the not kissing other people thing, she still doesn't get why it's a big deal but she knows that if anything happens then that's the end of it. She did say she was worried it would happen...I hope that it was just a 2 month freak out for her...I hope.
She had a bit of a cry too, she was saying she had a argument with her mum about me. She said her parents acknowledge me as her friend but not as her girlfriend, and that they went out of their way for her brothers girlfriend (when he had one). She said she wants me to be part of the family, she wants them to know how much she loves me. That was nice. And that she was crying, I could see she really meant it, kind of made up for the other stuff. Still feeling a bit uneasy though. Why can't it be easy? Cass just sent me an e-mail though about the insecure freakouts that occur in the "male" in the relationship (I hate the analogy but it fits}. EXCEPT I've been in relationships where I've been the "guy" and I didn't freak out. BLARG. women.
Tom's home soon. That will be good.
Is it too much to ask for someone who just wants to be with me? For a long time? Without feeling like I am too good for them or that they're not good enough for me?
