slept till 5 p.m. today...went to bed at 10 p.m. do you think i had some sleep to catch up on? Friday, October 10, 2003 i talked to my medical coverage (my doc's on maternity leave, darling little baby), and she increased my gleemonex to double the dose. i really hope this helps because now that i actually *want* to go out and be around people, i'm apparently fucking everything up because my moods are out of control. my sister, barb, compares it to my nephew's ADD, like i have no impulse control or something. but this has only been going on for a couple of weeks and considering everything that has been going on (Michael Andrade's death, my friendship with mike coming to a complete end, moving back home where i definitely did not want to be, etc.) i think i should be allowed to flake just a bit.
okay, so he hasn't emailed me yet. it's starting to get me down a little. but i still had the gumption today when i saw him to give him my cell number...my fucking cell phone number!!! where the hell did this personality come from? by the end of this, i'm either going to wind up curled up in the fetal position or involved in an extremely uncomfortable situation at work because i did something stupid. Wednesday, October 08, 2003 i'm starting to wonder if i am manic-depressive. for much of the past week, i have wished that i could just go to sleep and never wake up again. i have been paranoid, sad and regretful. Tuesday, October 07, 2003 i had words with barbara tonight. i know we are both on the emotional edge but she really cannot let anything slip past without beating it to the ground. she has always been like that but i had just told her how fragile i felt and how much i felt like a fuck up, despite an "emergency" appointment with my therapist and then she has to berate me for 15 minutes over something stupid. i wanted to leave but i knew i shouldn't. Monday, October 06, 2003 case in point of feeling useless. the woman sent by the army who has been kristin's backbone through all of this, taking care of necessities and surprises and unpleasantries that have come up so kristin has nothing else to worry about and who through spending so much time with us has become a friend of sorts just left kristin's home and kissed and said goodnight to everyone in the room but walked right by me without a word. i feel so unbelievably heinous right now. Sunday, October 05, 2003 those last two entries are supposed to be in italics as they are song lyrics, duh. i can't even figure that out : P
i'm just waiting on a friend
i'm a loser, baby...so why don't you kill me?
i am at the brink of emotional endurance...please forgive my babbling.
i want to curl up and die...why do so many people have to care about me?
everything i've done in the past few days feels like a complete and total fuck up. i get looks for things i say and things i do or don't do. i'd like to think i'm being paranoid but of course it doesn't feel like it. i have spent a few hours drunk this weekend (not alone, of course) which indubitable makes it worse but even during the remainder of the time i can't seem to do anything right. no one will tell me to my face i'm a fuck-up but sometimes i swear i see it in their faces. sometimes i have to tell myself to shut up and let everyone else do their thing because i simply can't get anything right. i'm sure the other girls would tell me otherwise and i've tried to believe i'm serving a purpose by being here but i just can't feel it.
honestly, i am not looking for attention, affrimation, sympathy or anything.
i'm very, very sad...kristin seems fine; however, i am not.
yesterday was the hardest day of my life by far. with the exception of a few hours of grey goose-addled levity, there was nothing but heartwrenching sorrow and self loathing that i could not contain. i was allowed to be a part of the "inner circle" of kristen's friends, riding in a limo and sitting with the family in the church and her closer friends made me feel like i knew them forever. kristin collapsed from emotion as she tried to leave the church and had to be helped out. of course, vulturous newspaper reporters and photographers got every invasive moment. a short while later at the fire station where they held a gathering after the burial, she became catatonic, unable to speak or move. she was taken home by rescue but only rested for about half an hour. she came to for a cigarette of all things and then we got food and drink into her and after a while she was like a different person. we were able to talk about michael and joke and laugh and gave her a way to "not think about it" for a while.
