What will today bring?
Ok, I woke up, my eyes are bothering me from sleeping with my contacts in for the past week. I already snapped at a good friend of mine on AIM and I couldnt remember my password to my journal. Im wondering if I should just get back under the covers for the next 45 minutes before going to work.
One thing I did notice is the temperature is going down in Rochester. Yay! Sorry everyone in Rochester but Ive been waiting to see a difference in the climate and finally its going to be warmer here then it is there.
Ive noticed that the temps havent really changed all that much and because of it, it doesnt really seem like October has just begun. The weather seems to have stayed the same since I moved here although they do say October is one of the warmest months here in SF. Interesting but we will see.
So no visiting with grandma and aunt Barabara :-( Guess it didnt work out the way we wanted but Im sure we will make the most of a bad situation. Hopefully everything will be better. I wish Josh was around, it would make my morning so much better just to go back to bed and snuggle, hold each other, and sleep on and off in each others arms. That always makes me feel better.
I also decided this morning to pop into the Rochester chat room lol. How interesting. I found so many are still cowards and hide behind screen names without pics to say what they feel they need to say. I shouldnt expect any different but still that shit wouldnt fly out here. I got a pvt from a guy who asked if I was in Rochester. When I said sorry no, he decided that was a good time to ask me "ur one of those people who infected people with HIV and skipped town?". I couldnt help but chuckle. Two things pop into my head. The first being, how people automatically assume because you move away, that you are HIV pos and *had to flee*. For those who dont know, Im negative, have been for 35 years, and do plan on playing safe and keeping it that way. So my first thought was what a coward. I also thought about people who are so quick to dismiss the receiving end of it. Although Im not sure why people would intentionally spread HIV or anyone would allow themselves to contract it and not play safe is beyond me but the biggest puzzle is that everyone wants to place the blame on the person who gives it to someone. Isnt it just as much the other persons fault for being irresponsible and not protecting themselves? I mean without one you dont have the other and it works both ways. My suggestion to all that want to stay free of STD's (and of course theres always a chance if you are sexually active) but to reduce your chances of HIV, Syphillis, and the rhea sisters, I would suggest playing it safe and protecting yourself.
Ok off to work. More on my day later.....

Ok, lets talk about strength for a moment. Where does it come from? How come its there when we need it the most? It seems like strength is a mind set. Right now Im feeling in control, take charge, and stop whining about everything thats going wrong. Stop worrying about those things I cant fix. I am emotionally strong and I am curious as to where it comes from. All I did was make the decision to be strong. Perhaps its making the decision along with the confidence in making the decision. Who knows but I found it. Who knows how long it will last. Just figured that was worth sharing.
