Tonight
Really fun
Really drunk
Really too much fighting
Really too much testosterone in one place
Really time to go to bed
Really wishing I could talk to my guy
Really just need to just go to bed instead
In a way, I’m really enjoying a lazy Friday like this. I’ll probably go for a run later with my dog.
This time next week:
I’ll be moving to Asheville.
I’ll have already turned 20.
I’ll wonder when I grew up.

Yes, it should happen. Soon. I wanna see you!

Random memory
“I forgot how small your hands were.”
I remember when I heard that, I felt like I was blushing from the inside out.
Summer shower
I love the rhythm of the rain, the percussion of the thunder, and the brilliance of nature’s light show.
Best thing to do with JELL-O
Wiggle it.
Jiggle it.
Declare it looks like a fish.
Take a greater portion of it.
Say you’ve got a whale.
Proceed to act like a 5-year-old and make strange sounds as you make the JELL-O move and shake.
Great night.
I’m loving this thunderstorm.

Santeria just started playing on my iTunes...
And all I can think about is him.
I remember him singing it to me on New Years Eve when he was plastered out of his mind, but he held onto me and sang right to me.
I remember humming it when he took a shower after he’d gotten sick later in the week.
I remember him singing it in Guitar Hero after he told me that he doesn’t sing in front of people because Laura laughed at him and...
My boyfriend earned the nickname “cockroach slayer” today.
I think it’s hilarious.
I keep finding old pictures of myself and wondering how I survived high school looking like that. I hope that I won’t look back on my current self thinking I’m fat or ugly. Those high school years were rough.

It doesn’t feel like Tuesday to me. Feels like a weekend for some reason.
Sometimes I feel like I don’t resemble anyone and that instead of standing out in a good way that people just think I’m ugly.
Today's To-Do List
1. Make yourself look normal and put together.
2. Work out.
3. Do some laundry.
4. Keep going through your room and the boxes in it.
5. Smile as often as possible.

I think this has been a pretty damn great Monday.
“Kickass come down tonight =P”
– Text from Richard, April 20 4:59 p.m. I ended up going down to see him that night. :)
“Thanks youre awesomer. =P”

My phone is telling me to delete text messages
For the past few months, I’ve held onto old texts from Richard. I want to save them. I can’t if I want to make room for more text messages. Therefore, I will post them here.
My Dad watches Fox News now. I am incredibly disappointed.
Got to talk to Richard for a little while today. He totally surprised me when his teacher gave him time to be on the internet and he starting talking with me on Facebook chat. I could not stop smiling. He makes me so giddy…still. It’s been more than 6 months and he still makes me giddy. This is very good.
I’m so glad I took a chance on him and he took a chance on me.
I’m determined to have an excellent and productive week.
Dear Dad,
Grow up.
Love, Your daughter
Dear future self,
Do not loose your joy. Continue to believe and hope with your heart as you do now. But above all, please don’t ever loose hope in yourself, who you are, and who you want to be.
Love, Caitlin

Why is it that when we talk to our friends for 30 minutes that we discover more about our true feelings than when we analyze them for hours on our own?
