A Legal Alien

17 December 2005

Yes, Laura.. I've eaten Mexican food like 500 times since I came back to CA. I'm not saying this to rub it in. Ok, yes I am. But just a little bit. You have a gorgeous baby and a lovely husband and you live in a city I love. Give me the right to brag about tamales and carnitas. It's all I have!

The plan has been updated. After doing some thinking, I'm going to torture DEADTOME a bit by going back to the cottage for a while and not speaking to him, telling him anything about my 'family crisis' or being around while he's home. I will sleep there, use it as a place to store my stuff and eat on occasion. Otherwise, I'm going to see my friends, travel up north, go to a few plays, take the Eurostar to Paris for a day, see all the places in Pride and Prejudice that I wanted to drag my evil ex to but never got the chance to. I've got a car, money and time. I will not let DEADTOME and all the immature, unprofessional pricks I used to work with drive me out of a country I've called home for the last 18 months. I may be crazy but I'm not stupid.

I've got a bit of Christmas shopping still to do and need to make time to visit some friends here before I leave on the 30th. I don't know when I'll be back in CA or what will happen in the next several weeks. But I have faith that I've been taken care of so far and will continue to be ok. I'm not dead, I have my family near me, I'm healthy and for once.. I'm happy. Not happy about being back in CA.. just happy that I'm not trapped in a job and a living situation that was making me certifiable.

I will sing praise to God, He has lifted me up.
He heard my cry for help and He filled my cup.
His favor extends for a lifetime.
His grace gives me strength each day.
My soul shall sing His praise forever more.
I'll put my trust in Him, God, my refuge my strength.
For when my life seemed lost, He has shown me the way.
