Jeff's Journal

made it to church this morning then went home and went back to sleep. It's cutting it a little close for the xmas gifts I ordered online, I thought I gave them enough time. I'm a bit confused about what to do about Lisa and other women. I think people see her as my steady girlfriend regardless how... Sign in to see full entry.

What a pleasant morning slash early afternoon. Talked to Missy and Sheila on the phone watched a few silly sitcoms and just took it easy. I should probably do more of that. Great chat with Sheila after I called to thank her for the Christmas card. I can't understand why she's so reluctant to go out... Sign in to see full entry.

Got a lot done at the library yesterday, it was quiet because of the snow. People up north laugh at us chicken-hearted Marylanders--the slightest snow keeps us home. Didn't get any greeting card stuff done yesterday though. I usually consider that the most important thing I do because it has the... Sign in to see full entry.

Rev Lee canceled today due to the snow, guess that will give her more time to pray for me in the meantime. Also gives me more time to read the Bible so I'll have more to talk about with her. I'm not quite sure why she wants to see me, I guess she wants to convert me. Given my commitment to my... Sign in to see full entry.

Finished my Christmas shopping, entirely online for the first time. Didn't really plan it that way but it turned out that way. I spend so much time at the library computer that it was almost inevitable. Got some greeting card ideas rejected by Oatmeal today. Don't know what I have to do to sell one,...

Really got on a roll with greeting cards today, should definitely result in some checks over the next few months. Ccccccold here today about as cold as it usually gets and it's still early winter. Not even officially winter yet in fact. Ordered a book for Melanie for Xmas. Done everything online so... Sign in to see full entry.

Had breakfast with Mom this morning. It was the first time I'd seen her since I left the hospital. She behaved herself, didn't give me a hard time about anything. I took Suzanne's advice and paid a little more attention to my appearance. I called to get the paperwork to withdrawal my 401K money. It... Sign in to see full entry.

Went to the "other" church this morning, slept too late for my regular one. It was great to see old friends and meet a few new ones. Jenna seemed to really like my rich journal idea. First place dinner dance was pretty good last night. Beautiful facility. Had a talk with Lisa about marriage and... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm here at the library with Lisa. Later we'll go to lunch and talk about the vasectomy and the trip to Vegas. I'm going to try and figure out a way for both of us to go, even though she probably won't be able to pay her full share. I guess the hotel room would be the same with either one or two...

I'm making a lot of decisions these days. In addition to the vasectomy I'm thinking of withdrawing my 401K which is worth about $8,000 which I figure would be about half that after taxes and penalties. If I get rejected by social security again, or even if I just don't hear anything for a couple of... Sign in to see full entry.
