  When I was in Texas, Eric had suggested that in the spring, he should come up and visit me.  I was all for it.  Me made plans for Heather, AnnMarie and himself to come up for a weekend a few weeks after Chrissy’s Birthday. I was really excited for their arrival.   When...

 June and July came around and with it came farewell parties and get-togethers. I also tried to spend quality time with everyone important to me.  This was the time I took Liz to her Rod Stewart concert. I went with Jen out East to Shelter Island for the day. I took Tony, our old stock&...

 The last half of the summer became quite eventful. The first weekend of August, “The Melman” was going to be moving down to Louisiana. He had been living in Minnesota until Matt went on a cross-country road trip in his Oldsmobile nicknamed ‘Snout’ to drive down Route...

“It’s a party to celebrate Alan’s discharge from the Marines” That’s how I sold it to my parents. That would sell my father on the idea. To my friend’s I sold it as “I want this party to be so big, when the police come I don’t want them to find the ...

  Although Priscilla and I never went on another “date”, we did hang out a lot. She had a friend named Dorrie who was in a bad relationship. To get her away from the situation Priscilla asked if we could take her to a movie. Alan, was on leave from the Marines this week, was…

  Breaking up with Dena that last time was like a grey cloud lifted. Unlike the last time, this breakup didn’t leave a bad taste in my mouth. Mostly because we broke up on my terms, it felt more amicable, and I felt like I got my freedom and happiness back.   At work there…

By Christmas Time, Dena and I had been fully dating again and getting back into the same bad habits. she was being anti social, and I was missing out on fun things to cater to her every whim.   Due to a shortage of money, Dena and I agreed to celebrate out Christmas on Jan. 25th.…
