Crappy New Year

I hope that you all had fun celebrating and toasting and kissing your loved ones. I had the worst two days of my life so far. I won't bore you with all the details, but in a nutshell, my heart has been torn out and stomped on and then run over by a semi-truck. I am the saddest girl in the world right now.

In other news, as a result of such a god-awful two days, I have put my butt in gear and have found two apartments. And I have two more to look at. One of them I know I can have. I just want to look inside the other two before I commit to the first. But I am lucky that I have a friend who works for a property management company who, even though he was terribly hung over, agreed to come with me and take my applications and put the word in for me. So if you all don't hear from me on a consistent basis, it is just because I am packing and getting ready to move.

Nothing like diving head-first into the resolutions, huh?

Geez Mel, I'm sorry to hear that your year has started out badly. It's good that you've jumped into the moving project. That will help keep you from thinking too much about the heart stomping. I guess this year can only improve from here for you. I'll send you an e-hug... xxx... Good luck and God bless.

That's so sad. So sorry to hear that. I guess no one can say anything to help in these situations either. Just remember we're all here for you, like our own little version of Friends. Everybody... altogether now:

"I'll be there for you, when the rain starts to fall..."

Ah, Mel....
Sorry about your crappy new year! Maybe you should just pack it in and move up north. Say, six hours north? I have a spare room!

Sorry to hear of your New Years blues, but it's a new day and time to start fresh.
I would offer to help pack, but I'm not going to be in Cali anytime soon.

Best of luck to you with your new apartment. It'll be great!!

That makes me a sad, sad boy. I'm sorry your year sucks. I'm sending you a c-mail invite. It's like Google, but instead of email, it's a horrible curse that you can inflict on someone. I've given this one an added case of chalmydia.

Let me know if you need to talk. We'll call.

Things can always be worse (ref. tsunami). Just remember to look in the mirror and realize how much a smoking hottie you are.

Sorry about the shitty new year...:(

I don't know from whom Michael is getting std's but if he's mailing them to you for revenge purposes, I'm o.k. with that.

If there is anything we can do to help, let us know.:)
