It's been so long since I've written here, I hardly know where to begin. I guess I have to start where my thoughts are at the moment. My thoughts, of course, lie with one person ... one person who has become extremely important to me recently. Yes, I'm talking about Wade. I've been to New Orleans to see her several times since my last journal entry, and of all the times I've been to see her, I've never been disappointed. This past Tuesday I went down there and we hung out there as usual till we (I) decided it would be cool for her to come back to Mobile to meet everyone... stopping in Ocean Springs, of course. Just so happens when I called Eric he had business to tend to in Mobile so it was all cool. I took her back to my place ... showed her around. No one was home except Liz... and she wasn't even being a bitch for a change. Me and Wade kinda fooled around... but don't expect to get your details here. Later, we went back to Ocean Springs and got a few hours sleep on Eric's living room floor. Eric woke me up around 530 so I could take Wade home so she could get ready for work. I really enjoyed our time together... I just hope she did too. She's just amazing. I mean, I just can't put how I feel about her into words... and that's saying a lot. I normally consider myself to be very good at putting my thoughts and feelings into words, particularly here, but I can't. I feel like whatever I say or write won't do justice to how I really feel. Wherever I am, whatever I'm doing, on some level, I'm thinking of her. Sometimes I get sad ... wishing I were with her... other times I'm so sublimely happy I just walk around with a shit-eating grin on my face all day thinking about her. When I'm riding in my car, I still imagine she's there holding my hand or just riding along with a couple of fingers in my pocket (weird, I know, but still ... I got used to it) ... so is it love? I don't know. I would like to say it is ... but I won't jump to that conclusion just yet. I think time will tell. So anyway ...enough mush.

What else can I blabber about... oh ... there's a guestbook entry I just have to comment on... It's by "Toyota Man Not For Long" ...sounds like a name someone would write to Ann Landers with, imo. Feel free to go read it and return here for my comments. ... First of all, I think it's awfully immature for a grown man working at a toyota dealership to bash the company he works for as well as the company's product. Secondly, Toyotas (including celicas) have excellent reliability ratings... and it will take more than a disgruntled car dealer to convince me otherwise. Thirdly, I never really thought about racing my celica ... would I like to add a little HP? ...make it more fun to drive? ... sure... but as far as racing Vin Diesel down Airport Blvd, no thanks. Any car will sling a rod if u push it too far (like fuckin with nos). Finally, my tail lights ... Department of Traffic approved and the # is stamped on ... 100% legal. You obviously have no clue what you're talking about. Just a litle advice: in the future, don't come to a battle of wits unarmed. Reminds me of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back ... "What the fuck is the internet?"... "The internet is a communications tool used the world over where people can come together to bitch about movies (or just about anything else) and share pornography with one another."
