I am so sick of being cold. It is May 2nd, and it is exactly 55 degrees outside, and it�s been like that for DAYS!
I know what�s going to happen. It�s going to go from cold, to really hot, in a matter of weeks. Aah, the joy of living in St. Louis. If the weather doesn�t get to you, there�s always the ragweed and pollen, which seems to be potent no matter if it�s 55 degrees or 90 degrees.
My right eye has been watering for hours. It did this yesterday to. We have a hot new Hispanic guy name Jesse that met me for the first time today and guess what? My right eye is on continuous drip.
Well.
I am busy every weekend. Ya�ll know that. Am I going to get into it? Yes�.
Friday, I was very tired. The day was cold, and rainy, and blah. After work I came home and did some tidying up. The dishes, mainly. We dirty up a lot of dishes in my house.
Saturday, I was tired, but I got up and vacuumed and sorted laundry and cleaned up the living room. We took out a lot of trash.
Sunday, it started out warm outside. Jackie and I went to lunch with Lisa at IHOP. That was yummy, as usual.
Then, we took a trip over to that Marshall�s cause I�d never been to that one.
I was so happy! See, I was looking for washcloths. I admit, I�m sort of a snob when it comes to towels and washcloths. I don�t like cheap ones that pill or come apart easy. So I wait until the nice ones at Marshall�s go on clearance. I buy the towels (huge, fluffy, long ones) for $5.00 and the washcloths for $2.00 a piece. The washcloths are very fluffy, 2/3�s bigger than most washcloths, and they are in these beautiful vibrant hues.
I bought ten.
I also got Jackie an XOXO purse that I found on clearance for $5.00. I looked for myself also. I decided that this summer, I�m going to buy myself a designer purse. I deserve it.
I also hereby decree that I will be henceforth known as a collector of obnoxious purses. I�d like the purses to be large, but my collection will have purses that have SOMETHING obnoxious about them, whether it is the size, the decoration, etc.
Yes. I may even carry them around when the mood strikes me.
Lisa got herself a purse, and a couple of tops. This Marshall�s seems to have a bigger store and a better collection. It also seems to be a little bit more expensive, and I didn�t notice many candles..but, I will go back there.
Yesterday, I dug up Kevin�s mother�s number. In case you didn�t know he was my friend from the Navy. We�ve been friends for 8 years. He is Jackie�s godfather and has always stayed in contact with me. In fact, I spoke to him in October, where he admitted that he HAD BEEN suicidal in September but that he was fine now. He really sounded okay.
Then, he told me that he�d be coming to visit me in January and to expect a box for Jackie from him at Christmas.
I sent him a box in December. No reply. I called his number, disconnected. The box came back in January, unclaimed.
He never called or came to visit.
It has been almost 8 months since I spoke to my dear friend.
The number I called yesterday? Wrong number. All I have is that address that he gave me for his mother all those years ago and who knows if she even lives there anymore?
I am so worried. Kevin Jackson of Clarksville, Tennessee, where are you?????
I am sick with worry. My heart is telling me that whatever happened to him is not good�..
I hope my heart is wrong.

Oh, by the way. It�s sweeps week. That means that article that the Mi*zzou Schoo*l of Journa*lism wrote about my case is coming out this week. The trepidation is building.
Will my diary become public knowledge? Do you guys think I should change my profile? It might offend, you know.
And�someone is still googling for my diary and me. Scary.
