Moira has a journal now. It's ladymcquillion. If that doesn't make any sense to you, you probably don't care. :)

• 00:19 Was just reminded of how great a movie "Stardust" is. If you haven't seen it yet, go fix that, ASAP. #
• 19:21 @shingyin Actually, today is the first day of Christmas, from what I've been given to understand. #

"So, how do you feel about the breakup?"

Good question. And one I've been going around and around on in my head for a while now. Intellectually, I'm fine with it. I know that it's best for both of us. I don't want kids. Honestly, I guess I never really did. I just fooled myself into thinking that I did for Myra's sake. But, as the time came closer and closer for when we were scheduled to start trying for them, my true feelings came back, and I had to tell Myra. We gave ourselves time for either of us to change our mind on the subject, but it wasn't going to happen...

So, like I said, intellectually, I'm good with it. Emotionally? I could be better. I feel like I failed. Other than one uncle, no one in my immediate or extended family that I am aware of has ever gotten divorced. The worst part was telling my parents. I called them, and told my mom, as dad was currently driving. Mom told me that dad would call me when they got home. He didn't call that night. The next day, I got an email from him saying "I have to wait for a while before we talk. Right now I feel like there has been another death in the family." (His uncle had died fairly recently, hence "another".)

I've been sitting here for about ten minutes now thinking and not typing, so I guess I'm done with the stuff that I feel comfortable saying. There's more to it than that, but that's the basics of how I feel on the subject.

• 20:00 @mikesterling I love "Kilroy was Here." I still want to see the short film that they made based on it. #

• 21:37 Turns out Myra has been using "Electric Boogaloo" as the subtitle to any sequel, but never knew what the original "Electric Boogaloo" was. #

This is easier than reposting. I'm taking the lazy way out.

I've been trying to make use of all the stuff I've been hanging onto for years. No sense keeping it all if it's tucked away and never seen.

My FB Note on Scrapframing

Things are going well here. I'm trying to figure out what needs to come with me, what I can pack away, and what I can get rid of. There needs to be a bit of a tiered system because we still don't know for sure if mom and Kurt will be able to get jobs and stay in this same apartment. If that's the case, easy peasy. I leave all my furniture behind for their use, and pack things that I won't need for a while away and store them here. If they have to move, I have to take care of moving my junk, too. I guess we'll see what happens.

And now to curl up in bed and read for a bit. =)

Hey everyone!

Joslyn and I are spending Christmas with my Mom out in Jamestown, New York, so if you didn't already know, we will be basically out of contact from tomorrow morning until the 31st.

Hope everyone has a great Whatever You Celebrate (if anything)!

Last night was Caledonia's 2nd annual Yule celebration. There was much feasting, singing, and general merriment.

*salutes* General Merriment!

Thus went the last day of AOKP in O.P. XXIX. Onward to O.P. XXX, arguably the sexiest year ever!

**NOTE TO SELF: I need a "badass" icon because I just realized I don't have one, and something like that would help me express things...

ANYWAY.

So you know how sometimes my dad is a dick-ass jerk? Well, apparently Eric, my younger brother, is also a dick-ass-know-it-all-misogynist fucking jerk.

I'm working on that last essay for my online class (which, by the way, I have REALLY not wanted to do, because it is annoying and I hate this class), and I needed to finish it tonight. Eric is sleeping on the couch because for whatever reason he won't sleep in the room he and Steven are supposed to share. So when I'm working on it, he keeps asking if I can work on my computer--which I CAN'T because I need the online course website and that fucking thing crashes my computer every time. So I tell him that he wakes me up every morning playing his french horn, so he can wait half a fucking hour while I finish this goddamn paper. (I said it nicely.)

At this point he starts flinging insults (among them "bitch," which I hate more than almost any word and consider it the worst insult, not to mention fucking misogynist because there isn't a corresponding word for guys) and telling me what that's different. Everything is "different" when it comes to his goddamn French horn. We all have to make allowances for him--and yet he makes allowances for nobody, even on one night out of this entire month I'm here. And yet HE calls ME selfish.

And then when he bugs me and insults me and swears at me until I just push him to get him to SHUT UP, he violently--AND I MEAN VIOLENTLY--grabs onto me and shoves me down, twice, and gets all up in my face about weak women, etc. I think I have bruises.

All I'm going to say is that I'm glad he and his long-time girlfriend broke up, because this fucking prick does NOT deserve to be with a nice girl like her.

EDIT:
Oh, I forgot about the "powerless" thing...

I'm tired of being made to feel powerless, by certain idiots, my students, and now my own family of all people. FUCK them all I guess.


AARRGGH I'M FUCKING PISSED OFF!!!!!!

Last night, I went with Michelle to a gathering of her family at her godparents' house in Newport Beach to watch the annual Christmas boat parade. It was an interesting experience, although it was weird being around so many total strangers.

We got back to Michelle's house in time for me to garb up and head over to Whittier for melee, but it turned out that there was no melee. Thankfully I had the forethought to text someone before heading over there.
