Strike Two; one more and you're out!

Two strikes. One more and you're out.

So "anonymous" has disappointed yet again. However, it wasn't a surprise, really. However, I do feel she should not even bother putting a plan in motion if she knows she can't live up to it. She's really getting on my nerves with this crap.

Yesterday, she told me she would personally give me her part of the phone bill while I was on lunch break at work. So I waited during noon hour (the typical lunch hour of the labour force) for her to show up. As time went on, I was realizing that she was ripping me off again, slowly but surely. For fuck's sake, she doesn't need to do this anymore.

Next time I talk to her, which should be tomorrow, I'm giving her an ultimatum for when she tells me she will drop it off to me (again); (depending on the time she says), if she doesn't actually deliver the money OR let me know about something that would keep her from doing so WITHIN an hour of the time-frame she gives me, then I'm cutting her phone off completely. She's already had 2 strikes; 3 strikes is all that is necessary. She's got a responsibility for fuck's sake, it's time for her to grow up. And I really do not want to be a parent...

Keep this in mind, I got her a phone & a phone plan out of generosity. Surely, you'd think that someone would appreciate it enough to pay a small fucking phone bill, right? Well, when you think about it, how many people actually would? She certainly isn't showing any appreciation for it, I tell you that. Her going through a lot of shit in her mind isn't a good excuse, either. I am giving her one last chance, and if she screws that up, then no more phone for her. That's not the way you repay someone when that someone (me) did them a generous thing.

Present Feelings of Uncertainty

This is about a certain person whom, even after a recent chain of disingenuous behavior, I still consider a friend. She knows who she is. I've talked about her a lot in the past month, because I had, or probably still have, feelings for her. A connection, if you will. Mind you, none of it is simple, "I love her she's beautiful LOL" crap, it's quite different from that. Anyway, for the sake of her privacy, I'm referring to her anonymously. It's only fair, and I don't want to make this seem like a slander piece (because it isn't).

She broke up with a guy a couple weeks ago. It was a long awaited thing, something that should have happened long ago. You'd think that someone who really knows what they want for themselves would have broke off ties with a guy that abuses them in pretty much every way imaginable, but she didn't. Well, good thing she made the right choice for herself; at least, the second or third time that I know of.

Ever since that day, which was on the 12th of this month, she's changed dramatically. I can't really pin down what may be the reason(s) for this change, but I know that none of it has to do with me. I can understand if she's confused about a lot of things as of that breakup, but because of one of her actions yesterday, I think it's no longer a valid nor acceptable excuse. This certain thing she did has to do with a very generous thing I did for her back on the 8th of this month. I got her a cell phone, and a cell plan. She didn't ask me it; I offered it to her. I was hoping that, by doing that for her, I could benefit not only her but the both of us. I was hoping we could communicate in a better medium than the usual stuff, which is, sad to say, Windows Live Messenger. There's several reasons I did that for her, and you'd think that she'd show her appreciation somehow (even though you can't really hold expectations of people, since, like with her, they tend to disappoint). However, I was quite wrong!

Since the breakup, things seemed to go downhill between us in a way. Communication almost ceased to a standstill; she insisted we only talk over a god damn Instant Messenger. She didn't want me to talk to her on the phone, even though I'm sure she talked and still talks with plenty of other guys over the phone. And with regards to text messaging, her responses were not only rare, but intolerably vague. For example, she'd say, "Sorry can't text." Sure, there is an overall point to that message, but there is no 'why', 'how', and 'when' to that response. She'd also recycle something along the likes of, "my battery's dying, ttyl" quite often, hardly ever living up to the closing bit. My gut feeling was that she was giving me an excuse to not talk to her, but I won't jump to conclusions, just for the sake of knowing that she's not exactly an indecent nor an out-and-out disingenuous person. I'd hate to think either way, but she's giving me no chance to see otherwise lately.

Well, I didn't get to the real point of this note. She told me she was going to personally bring her part of the phone bill yesterday, somewhere between noon and 3 in the afternoon. Suffice to say, she did disappoint. Later on, while VASTLY disappointed nonetheless, and feeling as uncertain as ever (I'm pretty much nearing my limits now), I talked to her mom on the phone. I told her about it and she suggested I take something back. Well, I think that's the best course of action now. If 'anonymous' wants to keep the cell phone I BOUGHT HER, then she should pay straight up. She's a responsibility in that, after all, so she should learn to live up to them. So not only did she pretty much neglect staying true to her word (basically, she lied to me), she also neglected a duty. So, what do you do when someone doesn't uphold a duty? You take something away, or take disciplinary action. I feel like a fucking parent when I talk about that, for shit's sake...and I don't want to. Yet, she's leaving me little room to move otherwise. Why does she make things harder and harder? Things would go by much more smoothly if she just fessed up and told the fucking truth for once; and to my FACE for a change. Yet, I don't see that happening anytime soon.

I've come up with a plan of action. I will personally pick up the bill, or the phone, depending on what turns out; and I will see what happens there. My hope is that she's more genuine than I feel she is now. After all, we hardly know each other in person. It's a sad reality that I'd really like to change, but unfortunately enough, she gives me few indications that she'd like us to really get to know each other...especially lately.

I don't feel there is a good excuse for this shit anymore. I will talk to her in the morning, and if she doesn't cooperate, I'll just be on my way to pick up what needs picking up. Fuck, through my work, I even got her a large supply of diapers, and even with all that she shoves all of the sincerity and respect she repeatedly asserts she has for me (whenever I express concern over the legitimacy of our 'friendship', that is), that seems like an insult. Does she really give a shit? She has certainly given no indication of it, at least directly. Perhaps she's subtle about this, and probably for a reason. This is why I feel that everything is centered on the cell phone now...

Well, that wraps this note up pretty much. I'm hoping that I am wrong about her, but fuck, she's not giving me any other indication. To imagine her as being able to use someone, especially someone like me when I've been there for her (however much so as I could, anyway), is something I want to avoid. But for goodness sake, she's not giving me that chance! I've opened myself up to her, I've done things for her most friends wouldn't even do (nothing insidious, mind you), hell, I've even gone out of my way in whatever way possible to show her that I think she's worth a damn. But she doesn't really have anything to show for it. I really do hope that, if this isn't even a friendship at all, that she DID NOT predict what would happen when approaching this cell phone with that attitude; if she were to have done so, she'd be such a fool that I could barely respect her as a result. Why the fuck would she get in on a cell phone plan with me if it wasn't a friendship? Surely she'd see a sudden end to all of the good things she's getting if she was just using me for the cell phone. If that's exactly how it is, then I feel sorry for her.

Anyway, good night. I don't want to drag anyone down, but I need to get some of this shit off my chest.


Peace,
Grizz

Sunshine of my Life

I feel hugged by your arms
They protect me from all harm
If I could be all you need
Then a wonderful life will be keen

All things in jest are of the past
When I'm safe with you at last
I'm dazed in love when your smile beams
They light up the darkness of my dreams

You know
You are the sunshine of my life
Moonlight of my nights

If you could see right through me
You'd know you're all that I need
I want to be caught in your glare
So I can lovingly stare

I'll be your faultless lover
If I can adore your face forever
My life is replete in your light
And I am hypnotized by your sight

You know
You are the sunshine of my life
Moonlight of my nights
You are the sunshine of my life

Will you accept me?
As long as your loving eyes glean?

You know
You are the sunshine of my life
Moonlight of my nights
You are the sunshine of my life
You are the sunshine of my life
Sunlight for my paling light

Hays' Legacy

Leave in state

Of burden

And hate

Bleeding stain

Of burden

And hate


All lives decay

In rain

Insane

And still they pray

In rain

Insane


Little city on water

Now a wilted flower

Little city on water

Once drawn by your power


Raise a tsunami

The sea

It weeps

Nothing for me

The sea

It weeps


People in despair

Charles' dream

Broken

As cynics, stare

Charles' dream

Broken


Little city on water

Now a wilted flower

Little city on water

Once drawn by your power

The passing of each hour

Makes you more sour

Little city on water


Is this Hays' dream?

What does it all mean?

Take it to heart

For a new start


Little city on water

Now a wilted flower

Little city on water

Once drawn by your power

The passing of each hour

Makes you more sour

Little city on water


Is this Hays' dream?

My Sightly Sunset

Sitting there, my sightly sunset

Above the world you're content

You're leaving me in full wonderment

I'll need the sea's depths so to lament

Your startlingly dreamlike occurrence

Has found me deep in fulfillment


So like the dreams I've always had

Always there for me in good or bad

A jewel in a river; a diamond in the sand

In all of my dreams you hold my hand

And so I wish I could live in this trance

'Cause then my life would feel so grand


I'd like to live in your dreams for a night

And then these feelings will feel all right

So grateful to me you're my healing sight

I'll give the whole world to hold you tight

When I put my thoughts to it I think I might

Thus here I am, fancying you as I write


Your voice tames the seas and calms the land

And in all of my dreams you hold my hand

A jewel in a river; a diamond in the sand

To be with you my life would be so grand


Sitting there, my sightly sunset

Above the world you're content

Your startlingly dreamlike occurrence

Has found me deep in fulfilment
