Word of the Day: malversation I bought the second and third Harry Potter books on the same day. The third one came Thursday, and I've yet to see the second one. I knew that was going to happen, too. If I ever win the lottery, I swear I'm having a wedding. I'm ashamed to admit it, but I'm so jealous of Laurel and Sarah and their weddings. I know I'll cry at Laurel's wedding, but for myself more than for her and Josh, because I'll probably never have that. In my head I try to tell myself that it doesn't really matter about all the pomp and crap because JD and I love each other and that's what's important. But my heart just aches sometimes for the ceremony, the tradition. I guess it comes from being Catholic, but I love traditions and the way things are supposed to be, having something to rely on. But it's hurting me so much right now. I know for sure that Patrick's not sick anymore because he's been in an absolutely marvelous mood this past week. And he has his appetite back, thank goodness. He's obviously lost weight because his little pants started to fall off him at the end. But he's quickly gaining it all back, so I'm sure I'll have a fat little babeh again soon. But I'm so glad he's not grouchy all the time anymore. That was trying. I guess I'm done. I wish I had more interesting things going on in my life, but I'm afraid it's going to be like this from now until forever. *later* 5 YEARS AGO How old were you?: 16 What grade were you in?: A junior in high school Where did you go to school?: Edna High School Where did you work?: I didn't Where did you live?: At home with my folks Who did you hang out with?: Laurel, Crystal, Caren, Lee and the boys, Aaron and the boys.
