I don't think I'll ever actually get the hang of this stupid thing. The idea of sitting on my ass in front of my computer on a regular basis, typing out some absolute nonsense on a 'blog' just doesn't seem to have a valid point to me. I mean, aside from Chase (who only reads my 'blog' to make fun of me), who really cares what I have to say on this stupid thing? The few friends I have who might bother to follow it, never really comment on it. Take Dani for instance. Of course, she's got a ton of other things to be doing and commenting on some guy she used to know before she got famous' journal is probably the last thing on her extremely long list of things to do. No offense, Belmont. I'm sure you're still as down to earth as you ever were. Not sure that's saying much.

Okay, I'm sorry. That's harsh. I'm not in the best of moods lately. Los Angeles gets worse on a daily basis and if I was smart, like my brother, I'd have left this fucking town ages ago. I only have a few weeks left of school before I'm finally finished and can hopefully stop picking up everyone else's garbage for a living, which is a definite bonus. But for some reason, I'm sitting here wondering if the whole college endeavor wasn't a waste of time. What good is it really going to do me? How much work is there for carpenter's these days? Are they really building as many houses with the economy in shambles now as they used to? Sure, I could get a job working for people who are trying to 'flip' the shitty houses that are already on the market, but I'm not going to make a whole lot of money doing that, now am I?

It's funny. When I started school, I didn't go into my chosen line of business thinking 'oh, that's gonna make me a ton of cash.' If I had done that, I probably would have gone to medical school like my parents wanted, because at least then I'd see some sort of flow into my bank accounts. But no, I picked a trade that will have me scraping the barrel for the rest of my life. Chances are, I'll have to pick up a part-time job just to make ends meet. And if that's the case, I might as well continue working as a sanitation worker.

Alright, maybe updating this thing tonight wasn't my best idea. Not only do I think that journals are stupid, but I'm not coloring myself very well right now. Whatever. I'm going to bed.

Yeah. I'm not sure that would have gone over well with anyone, really. It's really kinda funny when you think about it. I mean, sooo unlikely, right? That's like cruel and unusual punishment for Jake.

Okay, now you've lost me. Why would marrying you .. even fake marrying you .. ever be cruel and unusual punishment?

Gabe is an idiot who doesn't know how amazing you are. I don't ever want to hear ... or read that shit coming from you again, got it? The right guy will be very lucky to have you in his life. And I'll have you know that I don't appreciate people talking smack about my friends ... so watch that shit.

I'm kinda thinking there's not a right guy. But that's just my luck and I'm accepting it.

And you guys are all lucky to have me in your lives! So there! :P

And I can still feel bad for Jake for it! After all, how would you feel if oh...let's say Jillian posted a fake wedding invite to Dani's wedding...to you? Although in the real situation, Dani's name would have made far more sense.

I'm not liking this defeatist attitude, Stevenson. And you're right, we are all very lucky to have you in our lives.

I totally understand feeling bad for the guy considering that he basically just got dumped. But at the same time? His sister could be pairing him off with some far worse women.

As for Jilli ever doing that? Yeah, that would kind of annoy me .. but only because Dani has been one of my closest friends since I was like .. I don't know .. five? She's like my sister. Basically? Jilli would be promoting incest, and that's just wrong.

Okay, so Dani and Jillian were bad examples. But they were the only sibling duo that I could think of off the top of my head!

And you're right. Angie could totally be pairing him off with someone far worse, but um...need I remind you who said 'ex' is? Awkward. Cute, but awkward.

Okay, I'm not going to sit here and promote you dating another of Dani's ex-boyfriends. It was awkward the first go round, despite it .. generally working out alright. I mean, you ended up with Lyric and Dani is still your best friend. So things turned out alright, right?

But here's the thing that I will sit here and promote. You need to do what works for you, what makes you happy. For once in your life, quit worrying about how other people will react to things and just worry about you. You and your daughter. That's all that matters.

I think we're taking it just a step too far. I haven't even thought about dating Jake. At least I hadn't. Way to go, Angie. And I'm pretty sure the thought's never crossed his mind.

That is totally my plan. Of course, I'm never gonna just quit worrying about what others are gonna say, because I wouldn't be me if I didn't take everyone into consideration. I'm just going to start putting myself (and naturally Lyric) in front of everyone else.

It's totally things like this that make you my favorite. ♥

Well, okay, so that conversation may be jumping the gun a bit, but you know what I meant. I just want you to be happy, that's all.

I know. And I totally appreciate it. And the same goes for you. You should be happy, and not the recluse your brother makes you out to be.

Okay, so he might have a point in calling me a recluse. But I fully blame the fact that everyone I know has up and fled the state. Or, at the very least, the city. Asher and Ami are in Seattle. You're in Austin. Chase is off chasing storms somewhere. Dani is .. well, Dani's never in one place for very long at all. And I'm terrible at meeting new people.

It's not that I'm unhappy, though. I'm sure I could be more happy, but that goes for everyone, really.

Well, I'll be back in LA all the time. You'll barely have time to miss me! And we're going to get you out of the house! Even if it means torturing everyone with karaoke everytime I'm home!

Also, just between you and me? Now I'm starting to consider what I said I haven't thought about. Which...is still majorly jumping the gun, but I should so not be even entertaining the idea!

There has got to be better ways to get people together! Why's it gotta be singing?! One of these days, I'm going to force you to build something just for the hell of it. Just you wait!

Hmmm. He seems like a decent enough guy. I don't really know what to tell you, though. I mean, all you can do is go with your gut. But I definitely recommend talking to Dani about it .. if you're still considering what you said you hadn't thought about in like .. a couple weeks.

All right! I'll be fine with that! :P

Yeah, I think this is definitely a "talk myself out of it" thing.

You know that whatever you decide is right for you, I'll back you on it.

Thank you. I'm thinking it's not something we'll even have to worry about, but it's good to know all the same. And I'll think of alternate activities to entertain...after Glee karaoke night, of course.
