Hello again!

Hi dear friends.  Its your regularly scheduled dose of jello just on a different channel.  What happened?  Did I become famous and people started to stalk me and take pictures of me in my pjs at the grocery store?  Did I start a blog war with someone and now I fear for my reputation online?  Nah!  Its something oh so much more stupid.

My mom called me earlier in the week to tell me that David’s, my ex boyfriend from college,  father had passed away recently. Upon hearing the news, I was shocked and I knew that he must be so devastated.  He was really close to his father.  David and I dated way back in the day and we dated for almost 7 years.  I haven’t kept in touch with him and the last time I contacted him was two years ago via IM to congratulate him on the birth of his baby.  He’s married with two kids now.

I plugged in his old IM and Low and behold he still uses it.  I told him how very sorry I was to hear about his father.  He told me that did dad died from Lymphoma and that it was really hard on him the last two years.  After giving me a brief description of his illness he quickly changed the subject.  How was I doing?  Why am I not married yet?  Who am I dating now?   I did not plan for this to be a catch up session. I merely wanted to send my condolences.

He wished me a happy birthday and I was surprised that after all these years he still remembered.  Its been about 8 years since we broke up.  He said that I still looked the same and hadn’t changed much.  WHAT!  How did he know what I looked like, we haven’t spoken or seen each other in years!  In fact, I haven’t laid eyes on him since the day I packed up my stuff and moved myself out.   He was proud to admit that he read my blog.  HOLY COW!  I need to take a shower now and rid myself of the ick, creepy feeling that took over.

How creepy was that?  I know the blog is public but I never intend anyone but my close friends to read it or even be interested in it.  So this is why I have changed to a different blog.  I tried the privacy thing but its confusing and I’m not sure how it works.  SO here’s a brand new Jello blog for ya!

Speaking of ex’s….more to come on another blast from the past….
