a message to all of you beautiful lovers out there

your happiness makes me sick.

happiness

Noun.1 obsolete : good fortune : prosperity
2 a : a state of well-being and contentment : joy b : a pleasurable or satisfying experience
3 : felicity, aptness

how does one achieve happiness? does it truly exist or is it one of those elusive dreams like true love? are there really genuinely happy people in the world?

if so, how? i want to know. i need to know. its been at least 12 years since i lost my innocence, i suppose you could put it, and sugar coated reality i knew turned into the dark reality of today (yesterday, the day before and probably the day after as well.)

i broke down at work today. started crying. i left an hour early because i couldnt stand to be around people anymore. there are a lot of assholes in the world and unless im perceiving these customers in the wrong way i have been encountering a lot of assholes lately. i dont know what im doing wrong or if its all in my head.

im defective a recall. i need to go returned to the manufacturer and FIXED, damnitt. i want to feel normal.

i dont want my head to spin anymore or my thoughts to race. i dont want to feel like everyone secretly dislikes me and talks about me behind my back (i can thank that paranoia to growing up in small towns and being different).

the worst kind of sadness is the one that comes on without a reason.

i do find hpapiness in my children, dont get me wrong. they are the reason im still fighting.

just please.. let there be hope that somday life will seem less like hell.

on another note, when i was looking up the definition for happiness i found it odd to find the word obsolete being the first listed.

obsoletadj. Etymology: Latin obsoletus, from past participle of obsolescere to grow old, become disused, perhaps from ob- toward + solēre to be accustomed
Date: 1579
1 a : no longer in use or no longer useful b : of a kind or style no longer current : old-fashioned
2 of a plant or animal part : indistinct or imperfect as compared with a corresponding part in related organisms : vestigial

synonyms see old

— ob·so·lete·ly adverb

— ob·so·lete·ness noun

i feel obsolete.

another day in paradise

i need drugs.

desperate in pa

ps: im looking for someone to save me.
he/she doesnt have to be prince(ss) charming.
just my age (or considerably younger than 49)
kind hearted and sincere.

so if you fit any of those categories and are willing to drop everything and move to pa to rescue me from my own misery just let me know.
k? thanks.

my life down the drain

i recently became a member of facebook.
great. its like a neverending high school reunion.
i get to see all of the people i went to school with
whether i liked them or disliked them,
whether they were smart or dumn..
be happier than me.

married. almost done with college. traveling the world.
hell, having a boyfriend your own age that you are happy with and attracted to.

granted, it doesnt take much to surpass my life.
i work and come home to melt into my furniture.
rarely do i leave, i have no friends to speak of, and im barely attracted to the man im with who is way too old for me yet the father of my children.

what have i done to my life and how do i begin to reverse it?

i tried college, i did. i was too much of a melodramatic, depressed, lonely social outcast. the emotional stress broke me before anything.

and now look at me. a 22 year old shut in wasting the best years of my so called life.

rant

dear melo,
i take it this is still the transition mode. i miss the serenity of my old layout that has been replaced by overlapping layers and blocks of blue. dont worry, i will never stop loving you. you will always be my only worldly outlet.

which is what brings me back to you tonight.

why does my mother insist on making my life a living hell?

by the way, a lot has changed over the past few months. kaden, kyler and i have our own place. i got a vehicle with my income tax money. im trying to build a life for my children and i. so WHY do people choose on continuously fucking with me? i keep to myself. i work and come home to take care of my baby boys. thats my life.

of all people, my mother at that. what mother threatens or pursues taking their child to court over money and then continues to fuel the fire by threatening to attempt to take my kids from me.

the woman who couldnt even raise her own children is attacking my motherhood?

FUCK THAT

i phased her out of my life in order to decrease the amount of drama and stress on my shoulders. her craziness and drug induced fits are too much for me to try to juggle with the struggles of my own life.

and here she comes, back again to ruin the day. she said she is putting a hit out on me. you know, id rather someone threaten my life than threaten to take my kids from me. regardless of how many times i am told i am a good mother every mother knows in her heart that there is no perfect mother. i will never reach the standards i have set for myself. every bad thing that happens in my children's lives will fall back on me. you know.. I WORRY ENOUGH ABOUT THIS! to have someone challenge me time and time again?

it's just pure exhaustion.

i just keep telling myself that she has no ammunition. her record is shot and she is too crazy and taking too many drugs.

nevertheless, ever since i have had kaden and kyler it seems i have become a professional at worrying. i want to be the mother they deserve and i try even though its hard because they deserve so much more than any mere person could possibly give. they deserve to live like kings..and im working on making my life better in order to get them as close to that as i possibly can.

its just hard when you have people there constantly pushing you down.

the end.

what the hell

i dont know if i like this new set up too much.. maybe it will take some getting used to but what the hell happened to my background? i miss it it was beautiful. ;[

more trouble, whats new?

but we wont talk about that here.

in our family portrait we look pretty happy [letsplaypretend] act like it comes naturally

i should be getting a place of my own within the next few weeks. i saw the manager of the development in our toy store and gave him my story. i will coerce him into giving me a place.

I need !!!! OUT !!!!

i realized something last night

when i walked in the door home from work at eleven at night and began to get ripped to pieces by my grandfather.

i would have rather gotten a punch in the face from the man who has stood as a father figure for me since i was born.

and as he told me how worthless i was and heartlesss i realized that i now know the root of my paranoia. well, maybe not the root.. i believe the root is my lack of self worth. perhaps one of the factors is the fact that everyone around me is only concentrating on my flaws.

my counselor came today and made a self confidence list for me. i am supposed to get the people around me to give me one thing positive they see in me and carry it with me.

its not a bad idea. but im too scared to ask.

he tried to play me, shit got all crazy.. things just wasnt the same..

so i ran up on him and pulled my mac out then i BLEW OUT HIS BRAINS..

haha i love that song.

anyway, i broke up with my boyfriend tonight.
theres no sense in being with someone when i still am interested in other people. its not fair to me or him. i feel kind of bad because he didnt really do anything to deserve to be dumped but if the feelings arent there what can you do?

but i do like this kid from work..
we'll see what happens.

i think im paranoid and complicated

i seriously think i have a touch of paranoid schizophrenia.

seriously.

the constant paranoia is driving me absolutely insane.
the constant negative thoughts never stop racing.
where has my sanity gone?

does everyone really hate me as much as i think they do?????

they are going to take my away

as soon as my blood tests return they are coming for me anytime.
they will take me and hold me until my hearing.

my worst nightmare is coming true.

wish me luck

my first consultation with my lawyer is today since the accident report came back.

im hoping for good news.
all i can do is hope.

marilyn monroe

a wise girl kisses
but doesnt love,
Listens but doesnt believe,
and LEAVES before she is left

have i mentioned lately

how much i truly despise my vengeful, vindictive, victimizing, drug addict mother?

she is out to destroy me
but she is forgetting
just how STRONG
living with her bullshit has made me.

paranoia will destroy ya

my paranoia at work lately has been horrible. i try my best and i think i am hiding all of my horrors but i still constantly worry that my facade is transparent.

its as though everyone is talking about me regardless of whether they should have motive to or not. i think i feel so horrible about myself and all of the responsibilities that come along with running the front end that im worried about failing to the point of paranoia.

i dont know. my counselors say i have to like myself before i will feel worthy enough for anyone else to like me. maybe thats true, too.. but how do you like yourself when everything you see is tainted? i definitely think my family has had something to do with it.. all they see are my flaws and in turn thats all i see. bitching and moaning is all you hear in this house. my mother is the worse on her occasional 3 day stays. as soon as you enter the house you feel the stress in the air. she hates everyone, including herself and only is good for destroying lives and telling you your faults. believe me, this bitch has some sort of vendetta against people that will never end.

my grandparents are just hurting and my pap is so worried about my gram (and we all are) that he doesnt know how to see anything but her right now and her needs and thats completely understandable and necessary at this point.

i just need my own place, incredibly so. ive been trying..

tuesday i have to take my birth certificate and a letter from my employer or previous landlord to a place for subsidized housing and hopefully i'll get in somewhere soon.

if only it were legal

if pot were legal i wouldnt need nerve pills or alcohol.

there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. the worse side effects are short term memory loss and maybe amotivation depending on who you are. i think the side effects of pills or alcohol are far worse.

give me my pot back, damnitt. it works.

life update

things have been going pretty well lately.
got a new boyfriend, he seems to be great so far.
the only thing i dont like is that he is "straight edge"
all except for when it comes to alcohol..

but if he loves me like he says he does he will have to learn how to deal with my occasional pot smoking and the rest of my use can be easily hidden since its little amounts few and far between.

other than that he is wonderful. kind of controlling but what man isnt? sort of lets you know they care but at the same time its incredibly annoying. when it comes to most things, however, im going to do as i please and if thats not the way he likes it he can move on.

i realized something being single for three months, they may say women are a dime a dozen but men are a penny a dozen.. if ya know what i mean.

"men will come and they go through my revolving door some never come back and some come back for more."


work at the toy store has been a lot less stressful lately. i do have paranoia issues that are driving my crazy.. feeling as though everyone is constantly talking about you or thinking negatively.. my counselors tell me its due to my own distaste for myself which gets projected onto others.. she is probably right.. but its still hard to convince yourself otherwise.

hot topic isnt bad, either.. im getting paid to relax, listen to good music and talk to people who are interesting. i only get one or two days a week but thats all i need i work enough as it is at my other job.

kaden and kyler are getting BIG and BAD. as a matter of fact this entry will soon be coming to an end because kaden wont leave the keyboard alone. i love them to death they are the greatest most beautiful gifts ive ever received but DAMN they are a lot of work and i know it wont get easier anytime soon.

no wonder i do the things i do.

work it, baby

got my job back at hot topic.
i work tuesday 7-10pm.

hell yeah.

two jobs. two kids. keeping busy and trying to make a life for us ;]

pulling myself back together

bad morning.

talked to a few good people.

got myself pulled back together.

i AM strong enough to get through this


i will get through this.

today.. work.. then hopefully tonight i'll be around some positive people.

left with no one

no friends once again.

baby boys crying for me.

im crying myself.

who do i talk to?

all of the people who came in and out of my life used me up and left me.

now im stuck here alone trying to survive because i have no other choice.

everything has changed

i feel my life slipping through my fingers.

im a porcelain doll that has been glued together far too many times. this time the pieces are too small, like bits of sand..


[super glue wont work this time]

it is beyond repair.

Re: rant

well I'm so sorry to hear all of that :( And I'm really glad to see that you seem to be untainted from her, and that you turned out well! You at least have first hand knowledge on how NOT to be a mother :)

Re: rant

i think she is more of a lost cause than anything. she has been in every rehab in the state and we have tried everything including video recording, writing letters, pleading.. everything. she doesnt want to change. that is the problem. she has spent most of her life in jail and anytime she is out of jail the only thing that her life consists of is a search for more drugs. when she is upset she uses that to cope and when she is happy she uses it to celebrate. even when i had my babies and she became a grandmother, we thought just maybe that would be enough to change her.. no.. it gave her ammunition to use in her psychotic games but it didnt change the amount of illegal consumption she chooses to participate in. its better just to shut her out and try to salvage what life i have left.

Re: rant

sorry about the hard times :( I hope your mum will wake up one day! Intervention maybe?

My friends mum was very abusive to her verbally, I told my friend to record her mum in one of her fits and show her the recording when she's calmed. . her mum was so humiliated by the way she sounded, she actually vowed to change, she still has issues, but doesn't fly off the handle ... could be worth a try, some people really need to hear how stupid they sound ... I did it to my ex husband, and he cried like a baby hearing how he talked to me!
