That's dumb because I can't be falling for someone. That's not what I need to be doing in my life right now.<br /><br />I cleaned my room today for the first time in three months. It's like I got caught up in this comfort zone and was really against cleaning it, but I did just becuase I'm not a pig. I need to convince myself that I need to stop replacing my stuff that I lost almost a year ago now. That's pathetic, but I can't stop! <br /><br />I can't wait to move back to P. Place. Rachel is going to be a sweet ass room mate and I'll finally have a tiny bit of privacy from my family which will be awesome, not that I hate my family at all, I've just had too much of them lately.<br /><br />And that is all. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:julie_hoop:51094 2006-06-12T13:07:57Z 2006-06-12T13:07:57Z The new couches at Privateer Place aren't hideous like the old ones.

I can feel him.<br /><br />If any one of you want to get to know my brother, just talk to me, or my parents, or any of my cousins, or his friends.<br /><br />He is an awesome guy.<br /><br />He's never going to be past tense. Please don't refer to him like that.<br />If I do, it's because I'm going nuts and telling myself that he's not sitting next to me when he is.<br /><br />He is never going to stop protecting me, so watch you're back if you're on my bad side.<br />I don't know the list of the steps or whaveter of grieivng.

We got it torn down today.<br />I don't know if the reason that I'm upset is that I grew up there and lived there for a good 8 years.<br />I don't know if I'm upset because I can no long retrace my steps of where I tripped and fell onto a glass table and had my first stitches, if it's becuase I can't look at the back yard and remember where my cousin's and I made mudpies and danced in the rain, if it's becuase I can't remember what my neighbor's bird that I used to babysit sounded like.<br />It's just the fact that there is nothing to remind me of those memories but a pile of rubble...<br />I'm probably upset because I know my house is next up on my parent's list.<br /><br />I didn't like seeing it how it was and I like the idea of moving on.<br />I feel like it's just impacting me, seeing it gone and all.<br /><br />It would be cool if I knew that what was coming next was bigger and better than before, but I don't know that.<br />The property is next to a bank that has to be rebuilt so my dad is contacting the bank's reality department to see if they are interested in purchasing the land at a decent rate to expand upon what they have now.<br /><br />Who knows?

It is now covering my neighbor's house.<br />For anyone who knows my car, that little white spec in front is it. What's weird is it was parked next to that little grey spec in the very bottom of the box when my dad left it.<br />Which means that it floated and is now parked in the middle of the street or on our lawn.<br />Poor little Rhonda.<br />For anyone else who knows, it seems that outside of my brother's window there is a pile of debris. Weather that is from my blown down fence or from my belongings coming through that window, we don't know.<br /><br />It seems that one of our sea doo's is still there, but one was not on a trailor and we don't see that one anywhere so who knows where it is.<br /><br />There is no way to tell how high the water is...
