Friday, June 27, 2008 – 2:45 P.M. This is the first of five days during which I have no scheduled appointments. Hooray! I can use some free time to myself, so that I can do anything– the choice is mine. A friend came to see me this morning. After he left, I took a short snooze. I have managed to save five videos for this weekend. I have everything but the buttered popcorn. My back has already started hurting, so I will need to think about taking medicine for that. I have been trying to wean myself off of it, but that is more difficult than I thought it would be.

Sounds good. A weekend at the movies.

That sounds fun. What movies do you have? Sorry you have to take the medicine for your back.
I watched a movie last night called Georgia Rules. It was okay. Lindsay Lohan is in it and she plays a girl who was abused by her stepdad. I kept wondering how much of it was true to her real life, since she suffers from addictions and self harming.
Jim, I\'ve been thinking about how I\'ve been urging you to continue your story. I wanted to let you know that I will be your friend if you don\'t continue to write it too. I have no idea what is best for you. Unfortunately I also know that most times us sexually abused folks don\'t know what is best for us either!
Please take your time with whatever you decide to do. Obligation is not a good way to go about healing.
If it wants to come out and be written down, I hope you feel safe enough to let it happen. If it wants to stay hidden and protected, I hope you feel comfortable with that too. I will remain a friend regardless of what you decide. You offer wisdom and inspiration to me and I don\'t want to hurt myself by ditching that.
