I've always been making little excuses. The list, lately:1) I'm in a weird relationship that occasionally messes with my head, and I have a habit of only running off at the mouth (or keyboard) when I'm mad at things, and fixing to say stuff I don't mean.2) I'm in a weird relationship that occasionally makes me gush uncontrollably, and I know how Danny Boyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07070067146915309403noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17986661.post-71611481022724158652007-01-08T03:22:00.000-05:002007-01-08T04:36:23.720-05:00A Message on MessagesDespite this pseudo-winter brought about by global warming, I feel like this page is a fresh, virginal snowfall.

All my readers know what's been up lately, so I won't bother trying to catch up on the past three months unless it, you know, becomes relevant or something.I'm choosing to focus on the last three days, in terms of how they turned the entirety of the past year inside out.My entire outlook on romance over the past year is based on a fabrication.Not Danny Boyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07070067146915309403noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17986661.post-1156918641536941332006-08-30T00:48:00.000-05:002006-08-30T01:17:21.546-05:00an attempt at consistencySo, my grandma, last time I checked, is recovering nicely from the heart surgery.

A brief summary, with key points bolded for easy reference:Finals Week this time was for some reason much more pressing than the last.

He quickly corrects it, and I shove the doubts to the back of my mind and get back to caring.
