  Mom got home last night. I heard her in the kitchen when I woke up, and I just smiled without thinking about it. I like it when Mom's home. Especially after she's been gone for a weekend. She had a race in Chicago, and she was a day late getting back.
I think Dad was a little worried about her. She brought back some prints from one of the art museums she went to. I have The Starry Night. I still have to figure out where I'm going to put it. Plans for my room keep getting pushed around. Bleah. I finally ended up waking up around 9:30, went upstairs around 10ish. I know Sid and I were talking late, but that's kind of late for me to sleep.
I have to start signing off at 10:30. Croc and I were talking at one point. Actually talking for a few minutes, not just trading comments. It seems that one of his past girlfriends has found someone new. It's kind of weird - you move on, you're dating someone new, but it still hurts when you realize the person you love(d) is with someone else now.
My sister accused me of hypocrisy on this one. After Eric and I were an item, the Admiral started dating someone new, and it hurt. It would seem that she thought I didn't think Adm. hurt at all when Eric and I got together. I'm wondering when things changed. I used to sacrifice everything I could, and try to do everything I could to make people happy. Actually, I'm wondering if it changed at all.
I still do the same thing, but not with as many people, and I don't always look for the problem the way I used to. I think that was partly because someone accused me of invading. If I learned nothing else from my mom, it's the right to privacy. Then again, this contrasts with wanting to really get to know a person. What is my purpose? Why me? Nothing special, your number just came up.
