07/11/2002 Entry: "Thursday 7.11"

A triple shot victim in New Haven today. And my sister still asks why I wish to return to that crime-ridden city in the fall. Risking getting a cap in my ass makes the learning experience a bit exciting.

Mom found my old diary while cleaning out the junk shed one more time this year. I tried to read all the entries but soon got pissed by the time I reached the 7th grade entries, whereas if you read it you'd notice my lowering self-confidence and too much tab keeping of boyfriends that never were. I wonder how my life would have been if I didn't have an awkward stage.

Really disappointed that my connections failed and I was too late to get decent tickets to Norah Jones. Le sigh. Seeking a place with air conditioning led me to spend the afternoon in the library. Reading Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris and a bit of Shabby Chic. Rented the Shining and Charlie's Angels. So much good free stuff at your fingertips at the public library. Yes, you heard it from me. I like to go to the library.

We now have people calling Joan's house asking for Mary Beasley. OH! If you have text messaging enabled on your cell phone, send me some text love. My new plan allows me to send text messages. C'mon. . Telemarketers need not dial.

The pregnant friend situation has gotten me pissed. Her boyfriend is officially an asshole. This matter will be dealt with accordingly and I don't need to pull you into this any further.

Lovely days!

I never kept a diary when I was younger - I think the fact that I didn't just made factors worse. If I had kept one, I think I would have sorted things out with myself a little better.

I enjoy going to the library too. The public library by my house isn't all that great - they don't have a lot of selection, so I usually just end up buying books at Borders.

New Haven isn't as bad as Hartford. I was seriously considering going to the U of Hartford. Heh. Good thing I found the Q-Pac ... otherwise I would have got some caps in my ass too!

I remember finding my diary from the 7th grade too and I think I kept tabs on the same things you did, like who was with who and silly crap like that. It's funny to go back and read though cuz I feel exactly how I was feeling back then. ahh... memories.
