I'm having a hard time sleeping because I'm wide awake from taking a nap earlier in the day. Stupid fluoxetine. Only one more day of this and I'm switching to taking it at night!

feeling insecure. was out karaoking (watching) and boyfriend and i left early because i have to work tomorrow. as we were leaving he mentioned to our friends he would return to the party after dropping me off. he also volunteered to give the birthday lady a ride home (even though it was already arranged for other friends to do). he said it was because our friends asked him to earlier because they were tired. but all i know of this birthday lady (an aquaintance, friend of friends) are stories of how wasted she gets. i don't exactly trust her with my boyfriend because i don't know her and only hear stories. i want to trust my boyfriend but i have major trust issues with all humans. so i don't really feel comfortable about this. are they going back to her house and hanging out for her birthday afterward? yeah, he likes to play the good guy helping hand role but i don't like this.

yeah, i should talk to him about it but he's out now and i have to work all day tomorrow. so i get to have this stewing in my head. fun.

Does he have a cell phone or any other long-distance contact device? Why don't you keep yourself busy with stuff until he comes back? That way, you'll have too much on your mind to think about that? Although, you do have a right to be a little weary, why don't you try fighting those demons in your head and telling yourself things will be alright and that he won't cheat on you? If it really bothers you, when he comes back, you can check him out and see if you can find any signs that he's cheated on you.

thank you, deadman. he has a cell but i don't want to be that type of girl who texts him. we don't live together so it's not as easy as a sniff test. haha gross.

This is the entrance to the Kola Superdeep Borehole, 12,262 metres (40,230 ft) deep, the deepest hole ever drilled. I think my self esteem is down there.

Unintelligent. Insecure. Annoying. And incredibly f*%king awkward. That's me in a nutshell, and how I come across in most social situations.

I'm feeling proud and disappointed.

Proud: I'm still at my friend's place right now. He's a big drinker and I've managed to limit my drinks to exactly 2. I am proud of myself for not drinking last night and resisting his insistence for me to have a drink. I like it.

Disappointed: We were supposed to go to the pub but my friends procrastinated so much that we only got about 20 minutes of music out of it. That disappointed me. On top of that I felt like I wanted a girl to be with me after leaving the pub, but I'm basically used to having nothing on that front.

That sucks, mate. It kind of sounds like you need to relax more around people, but I know that's easier said than done when your anxiety levels are through the roof.

The disappointment will fade with time, but that feeling of pride will stick around for much longer. Good job, Mikey, and I hope you enjoy the rest of your evening!

Thanks Marie! It's actually 11:10am on Saturday morning here so all that happened last night. I am certainly keen for drinking less. After getting black-out drunk in September I'm keen to not let that happen anymore. :)

I hope you're well, too. :)

Oh jeez, I keep forgetting how far away you are from here. :rolleyes:
In that case...Merry Christmas Eve?

Haha it's okay. Today will be hectic a little bit I reckon. After I leave here I will have to go to the shops. The amount of people that are going to be there is a frightening concept.

Thank you. :)

I find it hard enough be relaxed around my own family, let alone being in a room with someone I've just been introduced and don't even know. That for me is terrifying. Having nothing to say, the awkward silences and general feeling of discomfort, not really wanting to be there.

I'm feeling super nervous. I'm at the airport right now flying to Newfoundland to visit family for the holidays, I haven't seen my parents in over a year. The last time I saw them I ran off to live in the wilderness for quite a while without telling them, not sure how this will go. Wish me luck!
