The bastard actually said I was being selfish because I was sad about not seeing my grandmother who has cancer….Selfish? What does the asshole know anyway? Why did I even talk to him? He is blocked forever, as he should be. I’m going to forget I even know his name or that I know how to pronounce it since Flan can’t seem to keep it straight lol.

I’m so anger at him. And at myself. And at the way God has chosen things to happen. The surgery didn’t remove all the cancer so now its on to raidition a/o chemo. Aunt Pam broke her good ankle. I stil don’t have a new job for the school year. I feel sick. Dad is still looking for a job. And I even got locked out of bank account…ha

Not that there is any money in there…

I have tickests for Wicked next week. I bought them over a year ago, I’ve been waiting so long to see it and now I do’nt even feel like going. I have no one I want to go with. I don’t have anyone I even want to talk to save one. WHere is she? Running around Spain the lucky duck. I hope she takes pictures of the Sagrada Familia. I didn’t even ask her if she was going to Barcelona…I can’t wait till she comes back, she better tell me everything.

And I hope I get at least one day to help her in her classroom….

Just one day?

I want to know everything. Why can’t that not be achieved? I’m not greedy and power hungry…I don’t wish to rule the world….I want the knowledge just to have it. And so I can never make a mistake. If I can’t know everything I want to know every little, miniscule detail in one subject that no one can ever prove me wrong. I want to be Sherlock Holmes and have that superior brain power that could care less about everyday crap but can save the lives of innocent people just by smoking a pipe….o, ok sometimes he used cocaine. But he did it all without really caring, with flippancy. His sense of honor would never let the criminal win but he did not really glory in the saving of the victim. Life was work. I want to be like that, no feelings, just work. Well that’s not true either…he had feelings like when he listened to the music of the violin. Appreciation for art, disdain for its creator.

I want to live like Beatrix Potter. Though I would truely never marry. Buy myself a big English farm and spend the days lying under the trees, gazing at the mountains and streams. I’m a romantic, but yet am not. Appreciation for art, disdain for its creator.

I’m not trying to say I don’t believe in God. I most certainly do. I mean I’m a romantic when it comes to nature, art, beauty, music, sob stories, suffering…but not when it comes to romance. I mean in the shape of a male or female unless its the satisfaction of a strong male being undone for love. Sir Percival Blakeney, Neil MacNeill, John Adams, in a way Sherlock Holmes…..and now the newest addition Snape.

In a different way I admire the old, wise, celibates….ha. Dumbledore and Gandalf. They too died for love. Can they really be so wise and so foolish? What is the point of dyiing for love? How have you helped anyone? You are dead. You can no longer be with the ones you love and vice versa. You have just left them with the burden of grieving for you. It would be better to kill them and take the pain upon yourself. That would be the greater sacrifice.

 I become so confused. At times I really believe that I will never marry. That I want no part in love. Other times I want it desparately.

You are a passionate woman. Is your husband man enough to fill your desires?

Vivez! Like Lisa is….maybe…I can hear her high pitched shreaks through my window. It is 11:30 and she is most assuredly still in the midst of a very drunken pool party….I’m sure that’s not really living. I’ve seen people do it and they are not any more satisfied. Perhaps I do want love, I am just so afraid I will never find it that I pretend I have no intention of seeking it. Self deception? Self protection?

Indiana Jones…that was another one….

Rhett Butler…

The musical version of Jekyll/Hyde

I hate Lisa. When I went skinny dipping I should have screamed at the top of my lungs….no, I took a great risk. I swam naked, completely quiet at midnight…ha

Flan, I wish to see you before you leave. But I have every doubt that it will not happen. You will not remember to write to me, or if by some miracle you do, you will only then realize that you did not think to bring my address. Why do I have so little confidence in you but love you so much? If I did get married is that what it would be like…love but not confidence, trust. Don’t worry Flan I do trust you. But would I treat my husband as someone below me? I couldn’t stand marrying a man who knew less than me….and I would abhor someone who knew more.

I’m retreating again. I’ve turned down about 5 social proposals in the last 2 weeks or so. I didn’t go to fireworks with Lindsay, or to HP movie, or to the HP book. If Rebekah proposes we should do something this week I think I shall scream. The former three…why? Did I really not want to go out, or did I not want to be with Lindsay….I like Lindsay a lot. Otherwise I wouldn’t have told her such things as I have. But…its like on that history channel special about Star Wars. The mentor has to leave if we are ever to learn how to do it on our one. Qui-Gon died, Obi-Wan died, Yoda died. My mentor hasn’t died and I cannot let her go of my own accord and its probably killing me. But to leave go, I’m afraid would kill me more. I don’t want to hear what Lindsay says not because I dn’t think its great and true advice but because its not coming from Flan. Does that make any sense?

……I think I’m going to stop now and listen to Lisa….I can hear their conversations all the way across the street, they must be very drunk.

Why can’t life be like the movies? July 1, 2007

Filed under: Journal — delphiandreams @ 10:37 pm

I don’t know what I expected. Maybe that somehow being in such close proximity rays would emit from my being and you, being touched by me would finally come to the realization that I needed you, I was calling from my soul. I’ve been watching too many Christy episodes. All of the sudden Alice realizes Margaret has left, she just knows….a few minutes later Christy seems to get this ESP message that Alice needs her….she runs to wear Alice is crying. Somehow she knows the exact place. Alice looks up at her, they don’t speak….Alice just clutches Christy’s arm and crys her heart out. Yeah, somehow I was picturing it like that.

Of course that is totally unrealistic, and I knew that so I sent you a text message. But that should have been enough…ha, who am I kidding? Myself.

I’d be embarressed if you were to find out that I sat on that bench for 2 and a half hours. Never moved, just sat there. Watching every car that pulled in, waiting for yours. Of course if I was being realistic you could have walked over…

The weather was as confused as my feelings. One minute the sun would shine down on me and my jean covered legs would burn. I was afraid my face was being fried. Then the next the sun would disappear, the wind would blow and I would be doused with water from the fountain in the middle of the pond, shivering….sitting there thinking any second you would come up behind me. Or my phone would ring, I would pull it up casually and say in sad voice “Privyet?”

I watch too many damn movies.

When I lost all hope of you materalizing, or even answering my phone call before my legs fell asleep completely I started to plan out what I would say when you did finally call. You see I work till 4 tomorrow but I could meet you at the park or Barnes and Nobles at 4:30. If you weren’t too busy. I wouldn’t want you to think that I asked you to come just to complain so I would ask you when you were leaving for vacation, etc.

I really didn’t want to see you just to complain anyway, I just wanted to see you.

We were going to sit on that bench together, swinging our legs. If mine don’t touch the grounds, I know yours won’t…we were going to watch the pond ripple, the sun shining on it, the geese floating around. It was so picturesque, there were kites flying, every now and then a child would lose a balloon and I’d watch it go sailing. Old couples were sitting on benches together. I even had my ipod so in my head I even had the background music.

I wasn’t going to tell you anything, I didn’t want to think of it all anymore anyway. I just wanted to sit there with you. Resting my head against your shoulder like a little girl with her dad. If the little girl’s dad lets her do such things.

But I called you at 1.30, now its 10.30 and I have given up even the possiblity of you answering back at all. Why won’t you play your part as I have scripted?
