Wow V your post sent me on an emotional roller coaster! First of all I am SO sorry about your dad. Do you know if it can be cured? I have a friend who recently recovered from stage 3 b___st cancer. I guess they go in stages and I think stage 4 means there's nothing they can do. She was late in stage 3 so when the doctors were starting to give up, she recovered. OMG YOU MET SOMEONE?!?! That's FANTASTIC! I'm so glad!! Dating will be really good for you I think. And your little man too. Aww B is so cute. I was looking at pictures of him on your myspace. He looks just like you! And I used to do that no talking thing when I was little too. I kept at it until I was like 9 haha. I hated talking when I was expected to. I'd just grunt, point at something, and get frustrated if they didn't know what I was grunting about. I'd throw a big fit and drive my mom crazy. She'd be like "JUST TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT!!!" "UUUGGRRRHHHTTTHHHHHYYYY!!!!!!!!!"

LoL!!! That's rea__suring Amanda!!! Though he does the exact thing you described and yes it is pretty frustrating, especially the way he makes me jump through hoops to get a "mama" from him! LOL! He thinks it's funny. As for my dad-they did a scan yesterday to see if it has spread anywhere else. The doctors make it sound like it'll be fine if it hasn't spread anywhere else. The only real concern is if they have to go to more stressful treatments like chemo and such, they don't think my dad will survive it. My dad has had heart issues for the past ten years, and I think his heart is only working at like 50 percent capacity. He also has diabetes and he's 61. All these factors could make the after-effects of treatments like chemo deadly for him-especially with the heart thing. His heart will not be able to handle the stress on his body, and the weakness that comes from it! But my dad's high spirits has me hopeful-but a little weary. I'll keep you updated on the results. He'll get them back next week. And thanks for saying my little man looks like me!! That's the greatest compliment ever. I look at him everyday and feel like I must have been abducted by aliens, woke up and found this cute little guy beside me. My brain just can't wrap itself around the fact that I had him!!! It's weird. I still feel like one day someone's gonna come and want him back! LOL! As for the dating. I'm not taking it that seriously. He's a really nice guy, and if I was childless I'd pursue it a little harder, but...I don't know. I still don't like getting out away from B too much, and I don't want B around him, getting close to him, only to lose him too. Just like my ex. I'm just going to play it by ear for now. It's funny though because it seems like every time I get moving past my ex, a horn blares in his ear and he starts using everything in his power to get to come around me. It used to work, but not this time! LOL! He's getting really desperate too. It's kind of nice to give him a nice slap in the face!

I wish your dad luck, poor guy :( As for this guy, I'm not saying you should take it seriously but I think it'll be great for you to get out with him every so often. I know it's weird not being around B... I know I feel guilty every time I leave Ellie for more than 30 seconds. But if you think this guy is nice and you have a good time with him, you'll be in a better and less stressful mood when you come home. About a week ago my grandma convinced me to go to the movies while she babysat... I was reluctant but went anyway. She said it wasn't healthy for me to be with Ellie ALL the time. I didn't even feel stressed until I got back from the movie. Even though I was worrying about her through the whole thing, I was super mom when I got back. Just a few hours sitting on my b___t gave me the boost to do everything I needed. Usually at the end of the day I'm kinda drifting off from being so tired... I give her a bath with my eyes half open haha. Anyway....Yeah I probably wouldn't introduce him to B until you're comfortable with it though.

DB- when you posted that we were just heading out. I thought about going in for a last minute check but they say an exam can actually trigger labor so i didnt. I had one Monday and we left Wednesday do that was close enough. Amanda- aww shes growing up haha. I thought Rylie would walk before she crawled too. She was "cruising" as they call it by 7 months but she finally decided to crawl. V- sorry to hear about your dad. I hope everything goes ok. I lost my mom to cancer in 06 and i cant even bare to hear the word. Its great you met someone! I agree with you about not introducing B to him yet. Ive seen to many of my friends have different guys in and out of their childs lives not even considering what that may be doing to them. Well im at the track and my battery is dying so ill check back in later!

I got the interview for the job I applied for!! It's on Wednesday!! YAY!!! Wish me luck :)

Good Luck!!!!! Really, just be yourself and you'll have it in the bag! Who couldn't love you??!!!???

hahaha that's sweet of you. All of my friends (in person) that I've ever had, excluding Harold, have hated me before liking me. I think I come off b___hy a lot of the time. Like, when I first met my best friend, she hated me so much that she gathered a group of people in an alliance against me... They went around trying to convince other people how b___hy I was. However, at the time she was best friends with my boyfriend so she was kinda forced to be around me and I guess I grew on her. She admitted "You're nothing like who I thought you were." I think I'm better around people now though... I've tried to loosen up since Ellie was born because I don't want her to be shy like I am. I don't really see anyone anymore... But the social security workers seem to like me...haha

LOL! That's funny, my best friend and I were the same way. Only difference was when we first met, she was a stuck-up b___h. She wanted sooo bad to fit in with the popular girls that she stepped on everyone else and acted like she was too good. Dude it was like 5th grade and you know that rule that if you are going to give out b-day invites during cla__s, you have to give them to everyone-yeah well, she did but then walked right over to me and a few other people (our cla__s was filled with the popular population, and only like 4 others) and gave excuses why it'd be a good idea for us not to come. She was sooo ofrigging rude. We became friends the next year when we got stuck together again. She liked to copy off my homework and halfway through the year I got fed up and went off on her in the middle of cla__s. She had a lot of respect for me after that and we've been best friends ever since!!! It's amazing who sticks around in your life and who doesn't! Anyway, I know your interview is today, and I'm guessing because I'm ahead of you, that you haven't gone yet. So good luck and don't forget to report back on how it went!

Ah no. I was mistaken, it's next Wednesday, the 11th. I've been working on my people skills. Having manners, asking people about themselves, talking to strangers (YIKES!) I think I'll do pretty well if I go in there with confidence. The thing is, when I'm nervous I shake uncontrollably. So when most people can cover it up my legs are wiggling all over the place.... It scares people away haha.
