21. If they were too make a movie NOW meaning right now would be the ending
Edited on Mon Dec-20-04 03:26 AM by Champ
It would not be such a bright ending. What would you name a movie with some of the most recent things that occured? :shrug: Here is the ending to my movie.....


(Turns out to be a longer post then expected)
#1 My SO disappears *poof* gone without a word, a little background. After living together for about 4 months, she moved in with her roomate but that situation was a disaster, got kicked out 3 weeks later. This place accepted her, but it was hard for her to pay the bills. $100 a week so she had to work alot, all she is has is standard HS diploma and work is hard to find around here, so she worked as much as she can attend a group meeting then an AA Meeting.(This was the only place able to take her in, a female only half way house -- She hasn't smoked, drank(not counting a few sips of a wine cooler she had on July 4th and a b-day party), done drugs once since meeting her) Pretty much after Thanksgiving I haven't seen her much, I seen her ONLY twice since afterward(didn't see her on my b-day 11/29) Dec. 2nd(Thursday) to give her check to her(They were assigned to my address because she used to be a resident)to her, she told me she was going to see me the next day. Didn't see her, didn't see her til Tuesday Dec. 7th *Last Day I ever seen her* She surprised me with a visit that evening, I invited her in and we talked a little bit. Kiki(My Border Collie) started to bark at me when I hugged her, she was always protective of her even though I would never lay a hand on her. We then walked over to our friend's house, the woman that gave her place to stay for a couple days when living with her roomate(she put her through unimaginable hell) situation went sour, we talked for a little while, the woman was having problems with her newlywed husband. I walked over to the bus stop and waited for the bus to arrive so she could catch her group meeting in time, as she was boarding the bus she told me that she would call me when she wasn't busy. I didn't see her call and after my friend's b-day(12/10) I came home around 4:30 am, I wanted to see how my SO was doing so I called her place at 6:30 am. (She was obligated to wake up 6am everyday for meditation) One of the girls said she went back to sleep after meditation, so I decided to get a few hours of rest myself. She called while I was asleep(This was 12/11), I woke up 15 minutes later and tried calling her back but no answer. I had what could've been a stroke, I posted a thread on DU that same day, I felt like I probaly could've died. Right now I feel 100% fine physically. Got scared, tried to call her later throughout the morning and early afternoon but got no answer. She left a brief message saying she was going to see me Monday, she has been busy and the msg including those 3 big words, so there was no indication of a breakup I was aware of. Come Monday, I don't see her, no calls, no messages. I don't see her the rest of the week. Last Saturday, the 18th, was the 11th day I haven't seen her, this was someone I didn't go a day WITHOUT seeing from when we first met(Jun 25) to Thanksgiving (Nov 25). So I decided to check up on her, I call the place.... "hello?" "Is (her name) there?" "Oh (her name)? She no longer stays here, she hasn't stayed here for a few days" I cannot describe the flood of emotions that went over me after that.


#2 Sunday(Yesturday), the 19th. I wake up at 2pm, I went to sleep that Saturday night at 7pm woke at 1am then went to sleep a few hours later. All I felt like doing at the time was sleep, I had no energy for anything else. I was hoping I could enjoy something to keep my mind of things, I wake up turn on the TV to see Eagles vs Cowboys game, I see on the right hand corner KC 42 Den 10 HALF. The Eagles vs Cowboys game was good, McNabb created huge plays down the stretch. My Border Collie Kiki who I mentioned above, looked sick, was laying down on the fulton, basically helpless. She wasn't moving around and jumping around like her usual self. She started having convulsions or seizures in the evening, one lasted a half hour. While she appeared conscious, it was as if she was completely unaware of her surroundings. My mom (Who I'm staying with til I'm able to fully financial support myself, I was planning on getting a place before her 3 months at the half house were up(Febuary)) called my fundie aunt(Bush voter, very religous, church she attends is actually classified as a "cult") and asked if she could have a ride to the vet, my aunt told her "After church(Sunday Night Service is about 3 and a half hours, members and pastor usually chit chat for a half hour afterwards) and if it is ok with my husband(My Mom's brother)" Well sad to say Kiki, my only pet(My mom has a dog and a cat, the b-collie was mine) didn't make it. She was a good friend that died young, just when I thought things were bad on a personal level, this has to happen. Thank god I have a few good friends, including 1 that has been my friend for 6-7 years that I see often, seen him Sunday afternoon in fact, or else I probaly would've completely lost it. Also a big thanks to many of you on DU, from you guys I found sanity in the most insane times. I hope my brightest days are ahead, my life would not be a very happy movie if it features my life from birth to NOW.

25. Life's Endless Journey
comes to mind, but it's not very descriptive.

Others:

Too Smart for Her Own Good (I've been told several times, in a reprimand sort of way, that I'm too smart to be doing certain things)

Running on Empty (at least for several years, now)

Promises Kept (for being a good friend when it counted)

On Her Own Terms (for being a little less disciplined than I should be)

Lots of other titles would work as well, but as it's just about 7 in the morning, and I've had 4 hours of sleep, I think I will hightail it back to bed. :)
