SaturdaySaint's Diary

hehe... That story rocks! Left ya butt naked in the ocean and you married her too!! Must be an amazing woman. Congratulations.
 
Adorable kids ya got there, saint. Love the journal--you're so upbeat. Great attitude for losing weight and life in general.
 
And I'm back... And yes... I was left in the ocean... she was giggling her tail off on the beach watching me! It was pretty secluded... but it was in broad daylight and cars were driving by (they can see right to the beach in my town) If a black guy could blush... I would have been blushing the whole time! She said my face was priceless! Raina, I don't embaress too easy... I normally do pretty good job of unintentionally drawing attention to myself. (Sometimes it's intentional though :eek: but that's stories for later!) I've been drumming for about 16 years. And now I'm trying to teach myself guitar... haven't had a chance to get to play in a while. I miss drumming though. I always played in church, other bands, school, etc.

OHD, glad I could tickle your funny bone!

amhale...she is a TRULY amazing woman! I want her to see just how wonderful she is... as I see her!

And Blackwdw... I try my best..I assure you that there are gonna be days that I come in her and will need some cheering up..somedays I'm just overcome with this BLAH feeling..and I don't know what causes it...but on every other day... WAHOOOOOOO I'm a nutcase and dern proud of it!

/byline: Had a slice of plain cheese pizza..almost instantly made me sick...bleck... almost done with my 100oz of water...mabye I'll shoot for 150 today... I'm feelin lucky!
 
Drink, drink, dri....ooops, wait..wrong place. :p :p :p ROTFLMAO These meds must be getting to me. *OHD goes to read the label to see how many she was supposed to have taken* :p
 
I can give it to you in a Short story or a Long one... the Long one isn't really all THAT long..but would take me a bit to post as I am currently fixing a laptop!
 
Either is fine...I got nothing but time. My little one is taking a nap, sleeping off her meds and I'm sitting here all bundled up looking at the pile of work around me that I'm procrastinating with. :p

Not for me im afraid, just chatting online on IRC (Internet Relay Chat).
I actually thought he was a teenager so wasnt keen on him, he was all over me keen on me. At the time i wasnt really interested.
Anyway we met and within a week we were an item (though i still wasnt sure about it). Now 7 years later i dunno where i would be without him :)

Awww,that's so sweet!
 
don't worry...I'm writing my story...but it will have to wait for a few moments...we're in crisis mode here at work and I have to go keep our server from doing something that it will regret later! :( :eek:
 
A long long time ago, in a galaxy far far away!

Well here goes the story..I'm at lunch...so I have some time

When I had gotten back from the army, I was going through a bought of depression... seemed all of my friends were "humoring" me with their friendship. I was an outsider. My family didn't have much money, but theirs did...so while they were all going to concerts, skiing, etc etc... I was at home..because we couldn't afford it. I was the poor one of the bunch unfortunately. I never was one to frequent chat rooms... never had time... so one day I decided I wanted to go talk to some people in a random chat room that didn't know me, didn't know who I was or how much money I had (or didn't have), and didn't care how heavy I was. I sat at the computer and did a google search for a christian chat room (I was a youth pastor assistant at the time) and went in the first one I could find!

After some time of idle chat, nothing interesting... just talk of Valentines day (it was in Feb when I went in) and I was a little sad cause not to many people talked to me... and out of no where..I get an IM that would forever change my life (not that I knew it at the time)... She saw that no one was talking to me and figured she'd say hi... She was so sweet...told me to keep my head up... I tried my best. She found out that I had never received a valentines day card my whole life (except for the ones that grade school teacher make everone give to the whole class) and the next morning, I check my email before work and I had a Valentines day E-card from her...I was instantly smitten! Casual talking in the chat room changed to scheduled meet ups in the chat room... I've been in IT for years so... I knew the apprehension that could come with online relationships so...I took it INCREDIBLY slow. Chatting online turned to MSN chatting...which lead to leaving voicemails for each other... then to the first phone call (I was a nervous wreck) Then after about 6 months, we decided to meet in person.

Now you may think that this is an easy task, but alas..it's FAR from it! You see, I live in Central Florida, and she lived in British Columbia, Canada. About 3 hours from the Alaskin Border mind you! $650 for a 4 day trip later, I was in Canada meeting her for the first time! I've travelled over seas, I've been to about half the lower 48 states, but I had never been to Canada. And not only that, but I was meeting someone who I was sure I was in love with for the first time. I had seen her picture from the ones that she had sent me, and when we started talking, I was in my blonde hair phase so, I knew that I hadn't scared her off already, which was a good enough sign in MY book! :D I wanted to meet her on her own ground, so she felt more comfortable.

I get to the airport in Canada and as I see everyone else going through customs, I get pulled to the side. Instantly nervous!!!:eek: I guess a black guy, with blonde hair and an earing, carrying a guitar is a little unusual in the great white north! :p

So now, after being grilled about why I'm up there, they let me go and I walk out into general public... it was like the scene in Shawshank Redemption when he finally breaks out of jail (except I hadn't just crawled a prison sewer and I still had my shirt on. Oh..and I hadn't just escaped from jail either) but I digress, I'm looking all over for her and I finally spot her. I knew at that moment that she was it! I know it sounds very John Hughesish but it's true! I practically barrel over the canadians in my path and we hug for a good solid 7 minutes! First time in a LONG time that I felt accepted anywhere...

This concludes part 1! If you all would like more of the story, let me know...I know this is long! But there is WAY more to the story!
