Now that the first of my group of girlfriends has turned 21 (I've only got 2 months to go ), we've decided to make Friday or Saturday nights (depending on work schedules) our wine nights. Tonight is the first one. We're all getting together later at my friend Laura's house to down too much vino, dance to Michael Jackson, complain about guys, and act generally crazy. It's been 3 years since we graduated from high school now and with everyone's college and work schedules it's still...

Sadly experienced the pain of near complete torn ligaments in my ankle last week while playing soccer. Physio told me I would have been better breaking my leg or ankle as it would heal in 12 weeks. With the ligament damage I've experienced, it's going to take 12 months to get 80% strength back into what I damaged.

Gutted. No football for a year and on crutches in the summer. Not to mention the pain.

I LOVE it!

I know the last thing you want to hear.. go enjoy your summer...

With September comes the 21st and that would be the concert I have tickets to. When I first bought them I was excited and ready and yes yes yes I'm finally going to see them live.

Things are changing, money is tighter and I am worried about being able to afford this. I just got back from an amazing trip to the Rockies ...

I feel lately, and I know I'm probably in the minority.. I feel...

we can pick up the pieces
and we can be the one that says it's alright

we can nod and agree
and you can say "it's best to agree with me"

but measured responses aren't always in order
and restraint isn't in everyone's best interest

the twitch in your face as your eyes bulge
your power and fury
the speeches and lectures
we sit quietly and listen
attentitive not because we want to learn
but...
