Whatever issues you have with me personally we need to settle it now. You are taking advantage of my cool. I don't appreciate it. And I swear on my mother's grave I'm not playing this time Dana."
I don't understand why a person, who never read my blog while we were together, would start after expressing that he "has no desire to know me anymore." So, after I let him in on the fact that his opinion is literally equivalent to the nasty hair on my big toe, he tells me that he's "honored" that I'm still writing about him (congratulations, another one!), and that I can keep on writing in my "little digital diary." As if I needed his permission. Teehee.
I love my little digital diary. Love affairs with fuckboys are ephemeral; my love affair with writing is eternal. I've literally kept a diary since I was eight or nine years old.

Today Jarel called. Me, him and Jonathan were on 3-way. Jonathan said I don't act sophisticated. Jon called Ronald. We pretended like it was only Jarel on the phone.
I also went through a dumb and slightly awkward Harriet the Spy phase. You know, jotting down irrelevant observations to try to solve some irrelevant mystery that probably never existed in the first place. I still have all of my diaries on my bookself -- Hello Kitty, marble composition books, Where The Wild Things Are, you name it. Through the power of Al Gore (or whoever invented the internet, ha) I can now digitize and share my future embarrassment. The bottom line is, if I think it, I'll write it -- no matter how childish or revealing. It's just who and how I am. To quote the bad bitch Gloria Steinem, "Writing is the only thing that, when I do it, I don't feel I should be doing something else." Blogging about these things helps me to see with an unbiased eye just how ridiculous and silly it really is. Writing is an unmatched therapy. To quote gerbil-faced T.I., this shit is "my life, your entertainment." To quote a lovely lady who shares my sentiments about "fake ass people" who deceive casually and deliberately, "eff him and his ugly gf who wears sweaters from Kohls."
I put a hit counter on here before I left for work at 3 p.m. It's reached 73 since then. I guess more people than I realize are catching wind of my little digital diary.

So I [[clearly]] don't know the whole story about you and your ex... but uh. if he doesn't like what you write on your blog: why read it? why even come to your page?? sounds fishy to me..... LOL
and I like the idea of a hit counter. I need to get one of those! lmao
every diary i have owned i have written in it for a couple of weeks, forgot about it, came back to it a few months later, continue to write the forgot again, then a year later i find it, read it and rip up all the pages and throw it away.
the idea of someone reading what i have physically written myself about my personal thoughts disturbs me. as though someone i know will read it and question my character and decisions. or think i'm dumb for being so boy crazy lol.
sorry, i always leave you long as messages.
I played that Harriet the Spy game all the time. In fact, I'm going to go find my little book of "spy notes" now.
p.s.
I too have a collection of old diaries; my first, a Lisa Frank diary with a little plastic bubble-gum-machine lock.
my first entries about my cat, Jenger. I was 7.
Matter of fact, they were ALL about Jenger. From the way she meowed to how she chased bouncy-balls and wadded-up pieces of paper.
oh how she entertained me.
the ex needs to get over himself.
lol@the harriet the spy phase. i LOVED that movie; especially when she smacked the pissfire out of Marion!
It's funny cause I went to my mom"s house to clean the garage and I found an old diary from my freshman year of high school...I can't wait to read it and see what the hell I was talking about back in the day...LOL, I just have to figure out how to pop the damn lock cause I have no key...any suggestions? Its a Hello Kitty one with that basic little lock?!
