Today is a fog day, that's what I call it. I just want to be lifted out of it... Today I feel like if I blipped off the face of the planet no one would notice, and they probably wouldn't. I have 8 friends, less if you count peolpe I actually talk to about anything, and I don't know what to do with myself other than cry tonight. Drinkin isn't helping, I jsut want someone to hold me... any suggestions?

Well hun. Alcohol is a depressant. That's why it's not working. I wish I knew what to say....xxxxxxxxxx

Yeah I know... but usually just makes me sleep... Mad insomnia and feeling alone are inhibiting that at this exact moment...

No, he's my gay best friend. My boyfriend is off at his place with his roomie (girl with 2 kids) and my backstabbing ex-best friend that's trying so hard to fuck me over and I just can't deal with that. Not at all...

having 8 friends is alot, my dear. Most people may only have one good friend and the rest are just aquaintenses(sp).

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
