I've been lately going crazy, and I mean that quite literally.

music: Damone
I don't have that much time to reflect, since my next class starts in about twenty minutes, but this journal is fascinating...it provides me with insight as to how I acted and thought during my turbulent teenage years (yes, I am no longer a teenager...I spent the last few minutes of teenagerhood signing in drunk freshmen at the Kennedy building at UMass) and really shows how lonely I was at times, and how idiotic my hopeless romanticism turned out to be.

If I went back in time to these days, are there things I would change? Most definitely, but as the late, great Albert Einstein once said, "There's no use crying over spilled milk."

The truth is out there.

Writer's Block: Witness Protection Name Change

People who enter the Witness Protection Program have to change their names. If you were in that situation, which new name would you choose?

  Nala was a good dog.

It's been a month or so since Nala  has passed, and just today I was hit with a sadness that filled my entirety. She was one of my best friends and you never truly understand how much you love someone until they leave this world.

The poem/story I read by her urn always causes tears to well up and fall from my eyes:

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

  THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE IS OVER!

I'm incredibly sad...it was one of the best times of my life, I must admit. There's nothing better than being on stage, making an audience laugh and, at the end, getting a standing ovation.

I'm going to miss falling in love every night, too.

Prom is in a few weeks, and I have no idea what to do.

It kind of had to happen   
04:27pm 10/02/2007
 

So, Tara and me decided not to continue our relationship, but we're going to still be friends, which is excellent, because she's such an awesome girl.

It was mostly because we could never see each other due to the fact that her parents were too tight with their controls and that we were getting tired of the same old thing every day.

But this is perfect, because it happened right in time for Valentine's Day.

It is not right or fair

  RIP Wally Franklin, my maternal grandfather. He died at around 4:00 PM today due to complications from knee surgery...I saw him only a couple weeks ago at a very late Christmas party. He was 65 and as healthy as an ox.

After the surgery, he was fine, but his heart did something weird and released a blood clot, which got stuck in his intestines and prevented blood and oxygen from reaching them. The intestines died, as did the stomach, and his abdomen swelled to that of a 9-month pregnant woman; the doctor did all they could, but to no avail.

I'm devastated, not only for his death but for what my great-grandmother, my Nana, must be going through. Her husband, my Papa, died in September, and my Grandpa Choo-Choo was the only son she had...now she's all alone.

We called him Grandpa Choo-Choo because we had two sets of grandfathers on our mom's side of the family. My mom's parents had divorced in the 60's, and they each remarried, so I had my Grandpa Choo-Choo and my Grandpa Butch. We called him grandpa Choo-Choo because he didn't want us to call him Grandpa Wally or Granpda Franklin, and, since he was a conductor with Amtrak we called him that. I haven't called him that in many years simply because I felt foolish and childish.

Services are Friday.

  Yeah, so the car was broken in to last night in Chicopee...they smashed the driver's side window in and unlocked the trunk. Stole some CD's and Dom's checkbook. I apparently had forgotten my wallet in the car (it's only happened once or twice) and it's now gone. I had no cash, but it was my favorite wallet and it had my Eagle Scout card, my driver's license, my school ID, my Gold Rennaisance card, my AAA card, my debit card and my social security number.

Fuck the motherfuckers.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Yeah, so this morning I did MY part to spread the CHRISTMAS cheer. At around 5:30 this morning I saved a mouse from certain death from my cat...I didn't have the heart to put the poor little mouser (as the moles call them in the Redwall series) outside in the freezing cold, so I put him in the basement avec des fromages

James Brown died this morning :(

I think Tara sure is swell!

I got the part of Ching Ho, and Dom got the part of Bunn Foo. Congrats to Stephanie Morgan for getting Millie, Daniel Harvester for getting Mr. Graydon and Michael Broderick for getting Jimmy.

Excellent!

So today was auditions for Thoroughly Modern Millie, and I sang "The Speed Test". I did alright...after everything was over, Ms. Watson posted callbacks on her door, and I found out that I was called back for Mr. Graydon and for Jimmy. Dom, was too. I'm psyched, although I have to learn the other parts for "The Speed Test" and the entirety of Jimmy's song, "What Do I Need With Love?" 

Pretty good. I asked Tara McMahon out today, and got an answer in the affirmative.
