Journal Entry for September 29, 2007 Mood
Saturday, September 29, 2007

Late entry tonight.  I went to watch a local football game.  I drive by the high school every day now on my way to work.  Mom and dad had went to dinner with my aunt and uncle.  So, I figured I would stop by the game tonight.  I really had a lot of fun.  I was just sitting next to some proud parents, and they talked to me a lot about their other son and daughter who were their problem children, they shared their drinks they had brought with me.  It was a little weird going there by myself, but it was still fun.  And the night was cool and the air was crisp.  Allergies are still bothering me, but it was nice.  I finally told my parents that I am dating.  My mom is fine with it, but my dad is concerned.  He is afraid it is too soon.  I told him, I am just dating and living my  life.  Hell, I could get my heart broke at work, or in a car accident, or some other bad thing just as easily as a guy could break it.  I have to move on, there is no way around it.  I have to live life.  I'm not scared, I'm enjoying every minute of it.  But I guess parents will always worry, and if I should ever be lucky enough to have children of my own, I'm sure I will be the same way.

Hugs to all!

    Yes you will my dear. It comes w/ the territory. Parents worry even when you are doing well. Our children will always be our babies even if they have their own children & are a 100 years old. Dad loves you. Give him a little time. :-)
