Yes, Dahling V, I know how utterly rude I am for keeping you waiting for TWO WHOLE DAYS! Seriously, I'm not quite sure I can live with the guilt. So, as penance, I'm giving up that wonderful pen and paper journaling that we love so much, and, instead, I'm writing here.

Having my computer back really is one of the greatest things right now. I use this for a lot more than chatting, you know, and I just don't feel complete without it. Likewise, I'm very happy about my taxes. T is not; he says that I'm not going to let him have any of it, anyways, so it doesn't really matter. I think that's a bit unfair...I WILL give him a BIT of an allowance to go and blow, but a lot of it is going towards bills. And, I really think I should get that ticket and warrant taken care of so that I can THEN get my license back in working condition and join the ranks of adulthood once again. Now all I need is to win the lottery or something...

I wish you were online, V! Its really not fair that "I" get online on MY days off, but you don't return the favor when YOU have msn ON YOUR PHONE. So, its not like its inaccessible.

I really wish I had a cute or humorous story to leave here for a good laugh, but nothing's coming to mind, so I will tell you about Jason's sister, L. L had a baby not long ago with her boyfriend O, and I think I remember telling you how rude I found it that no one had informed ME of the child. Anyways, today, I was moseying through FaceBook snooping in L's profile and realized she named the baby Scarlette. I thought, "Hmm, I don't remember L ever having an attachment to that name before...I can't imagine why she named her daughter that." Later though, I discovered the reason: it appears Scarlette's last name is O'Hara. So, in other words, Scarlette O'Hara. The irony, of course, being that the baby's black. Heh. How clever!

[In case the point escapes you: Scarlett O'Hara is the heroine in "Gone with the Wind".]
