My husband is a truck driver, with a dedicated run everyday,”never off the beaten path” he is gone 5 days a week, I do go with him 1 day a week. I do not work, I have always stayed home not always by my choice, but thats another topic, I do take care of everything from kids, house lawn shopping, everything is done when he returns home! The truck he drives is our own & there is a great deal of paper work to do at times, but I handle that as well. He does do a fine job with supporting us, & he is a hard worker, & I could never take that away from him.
He has been on this same run for a few years now, He started running with this woman, at first I thought nothing of it, I am no queen, and I know that looks are not everything by no means, but I have to say up until a year ago, you really wouldnt know if she was a he or a she other than she has a DD breast, she was heavy she is very tall, and had more hair on her body than I do on my head! I have to say she seemed like a very kind person, out to help anybody. Well Over the past year, other drivers are even noticing the change!! She has lost about all of her weight, had over 5 grand done on her teeth, wears make up. waxes all of her side burns that she has & other hair! styles & dyes her hair, and wears girl clothes. Now she still is not attractive by no means. I have been dealing with her running the road with my husband for a few years now, but over the past year its worst, it just does not seem right! They are together day & night, all week, when I go with him, she does not run with us on the road, but they do everything together, stop to shower at the same time, eat, sleep, they are never apart! he helps her unload her truck, he even brings her home with him to work on her truck in our garage! She even has gotten involed in some of our arguments, and she has tried to tell me what upsets him! For instance, he wanted a laptop for his truck, I still do not know why, he has never been one to use even ours here at home, so he carried on with me about this, I finally said, ok **** if thats what you want lets get on for you, well I found one for him, and went to order it, and then he had to tell me the truth, he had her order one for him with our debt card & shipped to her house!!! We have had problems in our merriage just like any other normal couple, maybe worst at times, he has been unfaithful to me well more than once in our 17 years together, and a few years ago he almost lost me because of it! Durring any of our arguments or what ever, she latley has her own opinion,,,she more less feeds his madness!!! I really could tell you all some stories on how he really can be and you would all think that I am nuts!! It has not been an easy 17 years.
He tells me he loves me & never wants to loose me, he tells me I have nothing to worry about, but in the same sentances he will hear nothing that I have to say to how I feel about anything with her, I try telling him to me it does not look right, his comment is he does not care what others think! This past weekend he told me he wants to hear none of our other friends say one more bad thing about her, he said that, that went for me as well, she is his friend and thats that! Then he proceeded to tell me that they picked up a cheap car, together so that when they are at there delivery place at night that they no longer have to bobtail to the truck stop to eat & shower, they can just jump in the car & go!!!!
Now am I crazy?
the last 2 weeks of summer me and my friend were staying at a beach condo complex. one night when we were hanging out this guy was yelling off the balcony with a group of people at us to get out of the Jacuzzi and come to room 209 to play beerpong with them. we thought the whole thing was so funny so we went up just to say hi after security filed them for a noise complaint of yelling off the balcony at 11. we left our number and told them wed chill the next day. we ended up sneaking out every night to party with them and started at 11am-3am. going to the beach, surfing jello shots, beerpong, stepbrothers, going to the movies and just messing around. i instantly started crushing on this guy the second i saw him yelling off the balcony. he was everything on my checklist, funny, tall, built, nice, laid back, attractive, knows how to have fun, but can still keep it real, and most importantly a little rebel. he texted me the second i left every night until we came back in the morning. one night when we were starting to get a little buzzed i challenged him to a one on one bp game. and if i won i got to paint his nails pink, he said if he won he wanted a kiss. i lost by one cup accidentally on purpose. ive kissed plently of boys before but this kiss was unreal. it felt like the whole room was spinning and not just cuz i was drunk lol. i cant even describe how amazing it was other than abslutly amazing. it wasnt that long but it seemed like hours. at first i tried to play it like it was just for the bet cuz i didnt want people getting the wrong impression. but it only took a minute before we were making out again…and then we ended up on the futon and at that moment all i could think was that i never wanted to leave, and thats when my dad walked in and threatened to arrest everyone for underaged drinking thank god he didnt c me getting on a 19yearold in the other room. we texted all the time when we weren’t together and he was always the one to text first, or call, or start a conversation at-first. saying goodbye was the hardest thing ever. im not the kind of girl to get attached to guys i just met, or really any guys for that matter. but something about him made me not want to ever let go. i live 8 hours away from him and i knew that as soon as summer ended our little “fling” or whatever you want to call it would end also. but he wouldnt let it. my friend and i drove home the next day and he told me he couldnt get over it and that he wanted to talk to me everyday. at first i thought that was a little much, but it wasnt, at all. we would talk for 3hours at a time and not run out of things to say i would text him while i was in class and hed text me from work. my texting bill was over 6000 texts a month and i still wanted to talk more. he’d send the cutest texts saying he missed me and your beautifull, and im falling for you ******** and i cant believe its all over that kiss. for 2and a half months straight, starting the second i met him till 2 weeks ago he sent me continual texts all day long. we both have lives, but we would stop everything we were doing to text each-other. the last normal text he sent was when i told him i was falling asleep at 2 in the morning and that i ws gonna crash. he texted me “i miss you so much babe, i wish i could fall asleep with you, sweet dreams i <3 u ***." and then i texted him the next day and he didnt respond but i just figured he was busy so i didnt pay attention to it. and then i texted him the day after that, and the day after that and he didnt respond, i didnt want to be clingy so i just waited for him to text me….for 3 days and still no responce. i freaked out and thought something was wrongbut he finally responded and said he just doesnt pay as much attention to his phone anymore and that he had been working alot and it didnt have anything to do with me. but when he saw he had like 6 missed calls from me over 10 days he didnt think to call me bak once. if he was over it i would be sad, but i would get over it, i asked him if i was waisting his time cuz he didnt seem to care anymore cuz i felt like i was talking to a brick wall, and he said that im not waisting my time, and its not that he doesnt want to talk to me "again" hes just been really tired and hasnt been paying attention to his phone. hes been avoiding me for 2weeks now so i stopped trying to takl to him all together. i feel so pathetic cuz im miserable over a guy who honestly, i barely hung out with who livs on the other side of california. and i dont even know what happened all of a sudden that made him stop missing me over night. the only thing that made sense to me was if there was another girl but there isnt. or if i did something but i didnt. and ive talked to people who know him and none of them know why. i know i just have to forget about it and i think after writing out this shitty story ill be fine. i fucking **** boys.
You do not have to read all of this just a few paragraphs. Read it all if you like.
Just so you know
I don’t blame you or any one else, if you think I am normal. It is a fair mistake that any person can, and has made. After all I look normal; brown hair, blue eyes, and crème skin, you know, the works. It is not like I have a rabbit ears sticking out from the top of my head (if I do, please tell me right now). But the truth is I am far from normal, my whole entire family is far from normal… at least what is left of it. But just so you know, for your own benefit I will let you in on a small little secret. My family is psychic. I am a psychic.
Now, please, I know what you are thinking, seriously I do. But believe me when I say psychic I do not mean stupid crystal ball stuff but like powers. Like… superpowers! Like walking through walls, x-ray vision (avoid at all costs), and mind reading… like me.
I am a mind reader, so right now I know what you are thinking “This ***** is psycho.” Most likely. But it is not my fault. It is just everyone on my mom’s side of the family, and dad’s side of the family, are psychics. It is a thing that runs in genes mostly. I know other psychic families too, but that I can talk about later, now I need to tell you something of importance.
Right now the government is bad with a capital B. And I know some of you are just thinking “Thank you very much Miss. Point-out-the-complete-and-total-obvious… it does not take an idiot to know that.” But no, I mean really, really, bad. They are going to much control and now they are taking measures that could hurt everyone; especially me and my family.
We are psychics, which means we are more powerful than the government. They do not want anyone to get the chance of being better or stronger than they are. So they are taking us to a facility where they probably are going to kill or torture us psychics. That is where mom and dad are right now, that is where almost all the rest of my family is… except for me, my sister, and my brother. We are going to save them… or we will die trying.
Chapter One
Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip, that started from this tropic port, aboard this tiny ship. The mate was a mighty sailing man…
“Just shut up!” I yelled at the top of my lungs. If Nathan mentally hums that Gilligan’s Island theme song one more time I swear on my life he will be beaten half to death.
Nathan’s misty blue eyes stared up at me. Sorry Cass, I am just really bored.
“I get it, really I do. But Nathan, I am the one who has to here that song over and over again. And I am not one of those people who can say ‘Just think it Nathe!’ That does not work for me at all.” I said putting my hands on his shoulders.
He nodded, “I am sorry…” he added audibly.
“It’s fine.” I said ruffling his hair.
“Cass?” I turned to my other side to see Paige tugging at my shirt eagerly. I am really hungry… she told me in a thought.
“Nathe, Paige, want to go for some chow?” I asked raising an eyebrow at them.
They nodded at me their eyes sparkling. I will never get over the fact how cute these guys are. Especially since they have the twin thing going but come on, they can be evil a lot of the time. Just give those two five minutes and there would be some national crisis.
It did happen a few towns over. Nathe was playing with rocks and Paige disintegrated them… while all of the towns’ folk watched, and got pictures. That gave us trouble, so we ran here. And yup here we are in New York. It smells bad here and a lot of the things these people think are indescribably creepy.
I stopped my train of thought and looked around and down to Paige “Babe?” I said looking down at her “You want fancy food?”
She nodded “How much?”
“Do five hundred just in case, cause I think we should take a bus, or a subway soon because my feet are in a bit of pain.”
She nodded and went into an alley for a moment and came out with two one hundred dollar bills, four fifty dollar bills, and five twenty dollar bills. She handed the money to me with a pale, sweating face.
“Sorry sweetie.” I said kissing her forehead “I know that takes a lot of energy and you are just a beginner, but for the past months I have been so proud.”
Well you see, Paige can break down and reform matter. That is her psychic ability. IT comes in handy for money but, damn, does it make her feel sick and tire her out. Nathan has a talent too. He can control Earth, like rocks and stuff. He loves his talent and has a knack for it.
She smiled at me sadly and then her face got a bit sarcastic “We are going to Calarasa.”
I nodded and took Paige and Nathan by the hand and walked into the restaurant with the big words Calarasa printed over it.
I walked into the tall restaurant building and the first thing I heard from the man at the desk was “Do you need to use the potty, because it is for paying costumers only.”
La La, I was askiong for and opinion, not a complaint. So if you arent going to answer my question please do not answer.

The other night i dreamt i was at this beach resort in some south east asia country, probably thailand. i went to the poolside area.
i was seated at this cocktail bar made entirely of wood n has thatched roof. somehow i was seated on a high stool which was very unstable n i had to hold on to the bar table to balance myself.
then later i looked to the floor n suddenly realized there was seawater, as if this bar somehow floated out into the sea.
i panicked n this **** hot **** bartender behind the counter gives me a tall glass of cocktail which has a bikini stuffed into it. i somehow got disgusted. she then strips off her spaghetti tank top and hot pants n gave them to me, n asked me to wear them.
so i was like ‘huh?’ n i looked at her. n she was in a brown bikini, n the bikini top somehow transformed into an octopus n it slithered off her n lunged at me.
i jumped off my stool n landed into the water.
i then woked up, what a scary dream
I asked this question, but my title wasnt exactly correct for it, so i’ll re-ask it again.
So, i mean, im a 14 year old guy, and im in 9th grade. The way i can secribe myself is this: Random sometimes, tall, act weirdly, and introverted. Might seem strange, but yeah. I see a lot of those called “relationships” between people who are younger and a bit older. Now, there are guys that keep bugging me about the fact that i’ve never really ahd a girlfriend of my life, and it’s not that it really disturbing, but ridicoulus. I mean, when you look at things such as MSN and Facebook, they keep writing on each others walls and writing each other messages “ily babe” and ” awh thank you ily2 even more”. I read this, and im confused. Being in a relationship is normal, for everyone. So i wanted to know – are those all bull**** child stuff of which they will all remember when they will be adults? How am i supposed to react to comments such as “OMG you have never had a gf?!?” (i must admit that a lot of girls might find me ugly. For being tall for my age, for wearing glasses, for being annoying… If i do anything that doesn’t annoy someone, it does annoy somebody else for sure.) and “You get no chicks, never will get one”. Help please? How can i get girls interested? Because eventually every guy has to have a girlfriend, some day. Thanks In Advance
Im asking whether its all a fluke. I dont have a gf, but other guys do, like the Jocks and Preps. And others have like 3 surrounding them, like the gangsters, if you know what i mean
