We had some Chouffe last night %d it was yummie, and I was able to refuse opening a second bottle so I feel ok this morning, hehe. I couldnt really read while I was drinking of course, so I watched the nightly movie on FX, which was Grosse Pointe Blank. I had never seen itbefore, it was funny %)

My mother called me last night, she only does that ever couple months, last time was on my birthday back in september. It was a pretty typical phone call, except for the news that my little 13 year old sister Annette finally got her way and got her belly button pierced.

That’s not the worst of it

My mother got hers pierced too!

How many girls can say that their mother has more piercings than them? Heh… well it’s not something I’m proud of! It’s weird! She’s almost 42…

I recently joined an emotional abuse online group called Emotional Abuse Victims on Yahoo! I sorta stumbled upon it after writing an Account Of Verbal Abuse I Went Through on my website. Of course it’s been over a year since I’ve been in that verbally abusive relationship, but giving advice to others, and seeing that I am not the only one still recovering from a bad relationships (one woman has been away from her ex for 7 years and still has problems!). It’s really good for me to talk about what happened… it’s really making me feel much better, and if I can help one woman out of a similar situation then it’s worth so much more than the few minutes a day I spend reading and posting to the board.

It’s cold in here, I think I am gonna go crawl back in bed, hehe… yay weekends

    Emotional talk groups can be very helpful. I have often thought of joining something like that myself after my childhood and the releationship with Billy that I went through. Its very difficult to rebuild confidence in yourself and believe in yourself after going through emotional abuse. I hope the best for you Leia and You can talk to me any time and what you tell me stays with me =) Wanted to make xanga rounds before Surgery Monday cause I know I may not be around much nor feel like sitting up specially Monday or Tuesday after surgery. Plus I wanted to wish all fellow Xangans Happy Holidays if I dont see them before thanksgiving

    Eesh… 13!?!  That’s it, I’m taking mine OUT…. when 13 year olds start piercing the same thing (ala Britney) that’s when you know something is way too played out and mainstream.. lol and I won’t even mention your mom.. I think that’s cooler than your sister getting hers.  I remember my cousin got hers pierced when she was 14.. and I wanted to kill her.  What’s she gonna do when she finally turns 18?  That’s half the excitement!

    Talking to other people who have been through the same things you have been through is so helpful.  There’s nothing like talking to someone about your problems and knowing that they understand.  Like when I met my boyfriend, he was the first other person I’d ever met who had a parent who was a significant alcoholic.  I remember the first night we talked about it… we both shared everything and just cried and cried (lol well, I did, anyway).  It’s refreshing, especially after talking to so many people who really can’t understand what you’ve gone through at all.  Here’s hoping your experiences will enable you to help others in a way someone who’s never gone through it can never do.  Make something positive out of your negative situation. 

    btw – i feel connected to you.  from what i’ve read of your site, you remind me so much of myself.. lol.. it’s so cool finding people you can relate to on xanga.  i’m sorry i don’t come by and comment as often as i’d like to.  have a wonderful holiday, even if you can’t make it up to your aunt’s!  You and Myk still have each other and that’s always enough.
