      A Rant About the Phone...

      I hope no one takes this post the wrong way... but knowing Bloggers (including myself), I'm sure people will. I'll take my chances. Oh, and to those who never do and probably never will actually have a phone conversation with me by choice, don't bother reading this.

      First of all, I want to make it CLEAR that it is absoltutely no extra charge for anyone in the States to call our old home phone number and talk to us. Don't ask me about how - I don't exactly understand the technology. I just know that it is true!!! I just want to say it again to people because I know several parents especially have been confused/concerned about this fact.

      Secondly, I just want to ramble in a somewhat negative tone. *big sigh* I am sick of calling people!!!!!! Okay, now that you're all really mad at me and thinking, "Fine then. See if I ever talk to you again!"... I am just tired of making promises to call people. You all know I have been bad at keeping them. It was hard enough for me to call people when I saw them at least on occasion. I am sick of rushing to get the minimal school that I am allowed done so that I may get on the phone with a few friends before it's too late there. I'm exhausted with the feeling that I haven't called enough people and my list is just growing. I miss my brothers, and feel like I don't get to talk to them often enough. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE talking to my friends. It is one of my favorite things. But I achingly miss the times I actually got to see and talk to them. And I know if I don't keep trying to call people, I will lose my friendships. I certianly don't want that... I guess I'm just selfish. I'm tired of making the effort, but I still want to keep my old friends--

      --Um, I just stopped in the middle of my thoughts and ran out of words. I am pretty sure by morning I'll regret this post...but hey, that's why they have delete options. ;-) I don't even know what I was hoping to accomplish in writing all this. I think I just am doing the typical blogging thing - ''writing to no one, hoping someone cares." (Zachary should be so proud.)

      Three last statements:
      I still love you.
      This is probably simply venting because I miss you.
      And goodnight.
