Hey Chels,
Wow I didn't mean for that entry to sound so bitchy.  I think what I ultimately meant was that I'm sick of being reminded what happened.  I know exactly what happened. The president took a 2 month vacation and didn't care enough to make sure this didn't happen.  He could have declared a national emergency and not let anyone in or near the trade center on that day.  Or he could have made damn sure certain people were not on the planes that morning.  But did he?  Nope.  He sure as fuck didn't.  He didn't do anything because he wanted to finish what his dad started with Desert Storm.  And now we've been in a war we had no right to be in and he used fear to divide the country.  These past 10 years have been nothing but everyone fighting over the war and prices going up everywhere and jobs disappearing and Lord knows what else.  And now we have a president who isn't as bad but still isn't the leader I thought he would be.  But 8 years of Obama can't possibly be any worse than Bush.  Gay marriages are legal now, Osama Bin Laden has finally been dealt with properly, bailouts have been paid back, health care has been reformed, and he was there making sure states were evacuated during the hurricanes.  So there has been a lot of good things happening and yet all anyone sees is that he's black.  And I hate that.
But anyhow, I just wanted to get all that out of my system.  I would have explained it better before but the battery in this thing was dying so I couldn't finish.  But now that that's out the way....
I am not going to lecture you about Ryan.  Shocking, I know.  You are a grown woman and your love life is your own business.  But I will say this:  if you don't want everyone in your business, keep it to yourself.  I mean, you can tell me because I will never judge you.  But when you talk to people and share your business, you are kind of stuck with whatever people have to say, good or bad.  So by telling people things is inviting unsolicited advice.  So by saying that you don't want people to be in your business is kind of pointless when you're inviting people to be in your business.  Even as your bestest friend in the whole wide world even I have no authority over what you choose to do with your life.  With that said, you must really like this Ryan person a lot.  I just hope that whatever happens between you guys starts getting better soon and stops being so crappy.  I'm sure you have been asked this a lot recently but I have to ask this question (and just because I'm asking it doesn't mean you have to answer it):  how can things be going so well with a guy who basically told you he didn't want a relationship?  I just wonder what in the heck HE was thinking, not you.  Alright and with that I'm done for now.

Love!!!
Rita
