(5pm) Erica called and visited a bit. (She is back to not feeling well. (Sad!))
She is a bit turned off by sex at the moment, but I think she will be back to a regular sex life long before I will! (Sometimes it’s useful to take a break, but quitting for as long as I have isn’t healthy! (Human beings need physical intimacy!))
I am baffled as to why Ashley told Henry now. (She trapped Dell by getting pg, and I would think that she would want to keep Erica and Henry together. (?))-(Maybe Dell was threatening to leave her and she was getting even by hurting Erica?)-(Maybe some guy she knows wanted to chase Erica and she broke them up so he could chase Erica?) (Who knows?)-(Anyone who would go off the pill and get pg to trap a guy into a relationship with her is pretty devious!)
(10pm) Erica took me out to dinner and to the bar, as an early birthday present. (Neat!)
I sure caught a nice buzz and the food was delish! (Wonderful evening!)

(7am) Happy birthday to me!
(5pm) Busy day!
Miranda treated me to lunch today. (We had a nice visit and then we ran out to the airport and picked up one of her friend’s car.)
She says what has been bothering her is Jeremy. (Somehow she has to let that anger go and stop striking out at family and friends!)-(To find happiness in the present, she has to let go of the past!)
She says she is thinking about some way to strike out at Ashley.
She says Erica is afraid to talk about her problems for fear of being betrayed. (I think she is being too sensitive, but she has gone through a lot lately.) (She has to find some way to let it out! (Maybe the answer it to visit with a therapist. (A therapist can’t talk about what is said to others, and they aren’t involved in the situation, and could provide an unbiased point of view.)) (Another option would be to become an unlapsed Catholic for awhile and go to confession.) (Starting a journal can also be effective therapy.) (It isn’t important how, but she needs to get all the pain out and deal with it somehow.) (Oh well, at least she is talking a little with Miranda now!)-(Miranda thinks Erica is holding a lot in though, and that Erica isn’t comfortable talking to her about everything. (e.g., she didn’t know about Erica’s affair with Dell.))
Miranda says she talked to the judge she works for about their dad’s estate today. (He told her to get a lawyer.)
There is a sale on potting soil. (Just what I have been looking for!)
I pretty much like this space. (Nothing fancy, but it’s a place to call home.)
Erica brought back the boxes I loaned her for the move and D O is having fun playing with them! (Cute!)
