like em both, but I think for going out you'd look better in the 1st. the 2nd almost seems like something you'd only really wear to tease a bf lol

Totally different vibes. The first one feels more like fall and night life; the second one is more backyard party with friends with fresh apple pie on the window sill and endless pitchers of sweet lemonade. Know what I mean?

well, u got over some of your other fears in short order... do I have to push ya into this one too? go!!!! do it!!!!

Ask him. The reward out weighs the risk in this case.

Man, that's very disturbing.

Sort of puts things in perspective, don't it?

I had a similar experience in Vancouver once...but it was with a guy that got hit by a car, adn i saw it happen..tried to help him and got help..but it was too late

yay cubbies is right! I got to go to the 2nd game against the sox, it was awesome! ever go to a game?

it took me about a year to 'like' working out, now I feel like an ass when I dont go, good luck on the motivation, the only thing I ever had was vanity and wanting girls to take more notice of me lol, still judging from your pix, you dont need to change a damn thing

later!

same thing for me.. the whole working out motivation thing...great pic on the bba...

You really don't sound selfish at all... you sound like someone who has an older sibling and who wants their friends to not be all "hey, where's your sister at?"... I had that happen to me growing up, as well with my brother. While I wouldn't go so far as to say that your sis is leeching off of your life, I would say that it's reasonable to be apprehensive of your friends wanting to spend more time with her than with you, after all, they are your friends. Let her know that she's welcome (if she is... I dunno, I'm new here) but that there has to be boundaries... ones that you set. Obviously you care about her so I think that talking to her about it might prove to be the best solution...

of course, what do I know...? I just wandered onto your blog and felt a pang of sympathetic memory at the same thing happening to me... feel free to completely ignore me

I'm an only child so all the attention was always on me but I think your concerns are legitimate.

I'm sure your sister is not out to steal your thunder but just because someone doesn't do something on purpose doesn't mena it's not annoying.

Have you tried talking to her about this?? This kind of thing can sometimes blossom into full blown resentment if not adressed.

I am way to shy for the speed thing to ever have been an option for me.

Well you don't look like your age at all. You look more around the age of 21-24.

Good Luck with the speed dating thing. I wonder if those work out?

Never tried the whole speed dating thing. Seems so impersonal to me.

yeah. thats some stress alright. I know how that is. I have enough trouble scraping together money on my own. certainly couldnt help anyone else out right now. Im just sort of bummed out about life in general I guess. Nothing has gone like i thought it would since I got out of the army, thought there would be some good times. There have not been nearly enough of them. Who knows though, things could change, I guess.

It's always hard when family acts irrationally. You don't want to offend them, but you want to let them know what they are doing is not ok. Hopefully your sis will realize soon that she has to do her part if you both are going to live together.

Distracted eh?

Ouch.
