Truth be told, I have a lot more fun with a group of 7-10 friends that I do with 35-60 "friends" who are only there to drink and eat for free.

I know! And people don't understand why I try to pare the guest list down to 12-15. I ENJOY myself when that's the number. Good god, when there are 35 people here....know what I become? Their servant. It's not enjoyable for me, trying to entertain that many people. A dozen good people(again, no weeds), makes for an enjoyable evening!

But yeah, feelings get hurt, by those not invited. I'm not quite sure how to remedy that situation...because hurt feelings certainly isn't my intent...

Just dropped my guitar and accidentally wrote an Iron and Wine song.

I couldn't help myself. Just proud of my achievement. I've noticed over the last while just how repetitive their songs are, and I swear the notes out of my guitar sounded exactly like a segment of Trapeze Swinger. Maybe I've discovered their composition method.

JTIS...

That I was suppose to see my dad today to make up for not seeing him on Fathers Day....he called me today randomly so I figured "oh hes gonna say something came up and we cant get together...like he always does..." well I answered and he was like "Caitlin....I love you....I have some bad news" so if course I thought he was gonna say we couldnt get together...Well he was like "Uncle Jim is no longer with us..." of course I was shocked and was like "WHAT?!" he continued to say that he broke into his house and found him hung in the basement...he committed suicide last night...So if course I broke down...and my dad cried as well which I have never heard/seen before...but after seeing your brother hanging how can you not be scarred...

I wasnt too close with my Uncle Jim so I didnt know too much about what was going on with him...but I knew he had some health problems and stuff....My dad was gonna fill me in later...

I am devistated

Hi Enchanted,
what happened to you and your family is terrible. There are no right words at times like this. All I can tell you is try to be strong for your dad, be close to him because he'll need your emotional support. TIt will take a long time before he'll feel better, specially because what happened is something so unexpected and extreme, certainly unimaginable for him. I offer you my condolences.

I'm sorry for your family's loss. *Sends good thoughts and karma your way*. I'm sure you don't need to be told, but be good to your Father for a while. Seeing anybody take their own life is scarring, especially if that person is somebody dear to your heart. I saw my neighbour hang himself years ago and it's always stuck with me. There's probably a long list of people before me, but if you ever need to talk to anybody don't hesitate to PM me. I'm told I make a good listener.

Oh I will be good to my dad for awhile LOL Not that I'm not already becvause I am a good daughter...sadly we just dont see or talk to eachother as much as we should....OMG I dont even want to imagine seeing something like that!!! I'm glad my dad didnt have to watch it happen...but seeing your brother just hang there in its self must be just as bad =(

Thanks for the support...I'll def send you a PM if I need any venting or anything
