ABSENCE

Alas, all, I have been gone for a while and will continue to remain absent until I can acquire a new computer. I have too many more important bills to take care of at the time being. I get on about 10 minutes a day on break at work. Enough time to read and comment on a poem or two! I MISS GETTING ON ALL THE TIME! I MISS MY AP FRIENDS!

This is The List... everyone should know what THAT means!

The most important people in my life!

BloodRedBlueEyes: My lil sister. The insanity that keeps my life sane. She's going to be 40 before she turns 21 if she's not careful. She always listens (or at least pretends to) to my work stories. She's one of the few people who's seen me cry, one of the few people who can bring me out of a rotten mood and one of the many people who can put me in a bad one. She's known me her whole life... poor dear... She slaps me back to reality if I fall into a self-pity trip. there's no way you can ever be replaced you're too important and loved. I love you Katie!
~~~~

Tony: My ever so wonderful fiance. Funny, charming, laid back and always making me feel special. There's no one else I'd rather be with. We have so much in common it's scary. Even scarier when he voices what I'm thinking... as I'm thinking it. He's my support and my strength, he lets me cry on his shoulder whenever I need to, he's always there to listen to me, and I know he sees me for me and loves me for who I am, no judgements or scoffing, and I know it's true. I love him and I know that won't change. Oh yeah... and I can beat him at air hockey!
~~~~

My other lil sis FLuffyRainbowCupacak or something like that: She's important too! My baby sis, the spoiled princess of the family. She's cute and she knows it, and THAT'S the problem! But she has her moments when she can keep me sane! And may her doggy Crystal Chandelier rest in peace.
~~~~

Night-Lord My AP big bro. He's crazy sometimes... attacking me with pillows... rugby tackling... licking between my toes... wait that was supposed to be a secret... oops I luv him to bits... smacks him with a pillow
~~~~

StoneBlue: An amazing poet with unspeakable talent! One of the greatest friends I've made. You're just too complex for words, but I still love you. Always will

And some more, who I will add notes to later
