Looking back...
I’m sitting here looking at old pictures and keep noticing that I have bruises in almost all of the pictures from when I was with Ryan. I found out yesterday that his girlfriend went crazy and punched him in the face, including kicking her windshield, breaking it, and punching the dash and breaking her hand and now has a cast on her hand. Needless to say, they broke up yesterday. I...

Meet the Parents...Check!
It’s such a breath of fresh air when you meet someone’s parents and it goes perfectly. Just to see that they’re normal people and I should’ve known that they would be since they raised such a great son, but I was still nervous about what they would think about me. Aaron told his mom everything about me. About Trevor, about my accident, about the DUI, about Ryan and...

Meet the Parents...
…happens tomorrow! I’m going to go to his place tonight and then we’re going to go out to dinner with his parents tomorrow night. I’m nervous. I think I’ll be ok, but he’s making this into a big deal, especially because we’re going out to dinner with them, so I’m nervous about how easy they’ll be to talk to. Think of me tomorrow...

going to see Mary Poppins tonight with @PrncessMelissaC and our mom’s. I can’t wait to see it!
Drivers Safety Class
Today was my first class for the DUI class I have to take. I still can’t believe I have to do this. It said that they’re going to be showing films and discussing them. Fantastic! Like I haven’t experienced enough about car crashes, I need to watch videos on them to see what I went through too! The classes start Monday, February 1. I go for 1 hour for the first 3...

Meeting the Parents!
I had a night to myself tonight! I haven’t had any nights to myself lately. Any nights that I’m not with Trevor, I’ve been spending the night at Aaron’s place. I missed having time to myself to just do nothing but be alone and be lazy, listen to my music, and sit on the computer. So I did that tonight! It was great! As much as I love laughing with Aaron, I still...

Rihanna and Chris Brown
In her new interview with W Magazine, Rihanna opens up further about the night Chris Brown assaulted her. She confesses: “There were control issues, insecurity. When people are insecure, they become very controlling and they can get very aggressive and in turn abusive. It doesn’t have to be physical. Like, they would say bad stuff to you to make you feel lesser than them, just so they...

1 Month
I just realized that it was one month ago today that Aaron and I had our first date. We’ve been talking since the first week of December, but I didn’t actually meet him in person until December 18. This has been the best month. I can’t wait to see what next month will bring. PLUS, it’s Valentine’s Day next month and I think my friends and I are going up to Big...
"In a Relationship"
I think it’s funny how putting “In a Relationship” on Facebook can mean it’s official. I changed my relationship status today on Facebook. This week has been a big one for me. Aaron met my parents yesterday morning for the first time. We went to a bbq at his friend Farrah and Brett’s house yesterday. I had the best time. Being around him with his friends...

Lucky
One of the last words I would’ve used to describe myself last year would have to be “lucky”. So far this year (and the exception of the last couple of weeks of 2009) has been the luckiest time I’ve had in a VERY long time. I’m so happy right now! There has been some bad news this past week (I found out that I have a DUI and will have to deal with that whole...

One Flaw In Women.
christinemdavis:
Women have strengths that amaze men… They bear hardships and they carry burdens, but they hold happiness, love and joy. They smile when they want to scream. They sing when they want to cry. They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous. They fight for what they believe in.. They stand up to injustice. They don’t take “no” for an answer when they believe...

It's the First Monday of the Year...
…and that means it’s time to get crackin’ on getting my life back. I have a lot of things I want to do tomorrow so I’m going to pass out now that it’s 2am. I need to get on a better schedule than this. I watched Premonition tonight with my mom and sister and read a couple of fitness books and have been reading motivational quotes to help get me going. I’m...
