Chapter 21 - Epilogue
Saturday, November 13th, 2021 Katy and I went to see Reggie Watts last night at Dynasty Typewriter. She got to meet him in the hall when she went to the bathroom. Sara June opened and she did a bit where she pretended to be the moon. As the moon, she was tired of everyone blaming her for their...

Chapter 20 - How Strong I Am
Friday, November 12th, 2021 When Joffrey wanted Voldemort to move in with us, I was hesitant. I warned him that if he treated me the way he treated me when we lived with Elliot, I’d be done. That if there were any conflicts, he’d have to recognize my feelings. I told him that. I thought he’d…

Chapter 19 - My Dream Girl
Thursday, November 11th, 2021 11/11 Make a Wish... Katy and I went to The Cheesecake Factory last night. I bought us sangrias and she read through my journal. It felt nice to have someone feel what I’m going through. Her review was that it was very relatable. Reading it was entertaining, but what...

Chapter 18 - It Feels Good
Wednesday, November 10th, 2021 I called the Employee Assistance Program to set a separate therapy appointment for myself with someone I could see in person. They said because I arranged the couples therapy, it was under my authorization, and that therapist would have to call in for me to do...

Chapter 17 - When He Has Potential
Tuesday, November 9th, 2021 I’m nervous for our couples therapy appointment today. I’m scared the therapist will tell us it can work, or that this is common – that I just can’t handle being called insane, idiotic, crazy, dramatic, fine… But I know that’s not realistic. I was clear about wanting…

Chapter 16 - Queens
Monday, November 8th, 2021 I went into work today. I look cute. I’ve lost weight – I have to keep eating. I went to get a smoothie and some girls had a cute boutique on the street. I just filled out the forms for our first couples therapy appointment tomorrow. I had to mark if I was single or in…

Wednesday, November 7th, 2021 Penny and I are watching Catherine’s riding lesson. It’s beautiful outside and I am happy. It’s peaceful. I love horses and I love writing while watching my friend. On the way to Catherine’s place I thought more about how I would do anything and everything to make...

Chapter 14 - I Am His Rock
Saturday, November 6th, 2021 I didn’t pack a bag because I thought I’d be back home – that there wouldn’t be anyone. Amy told me to come over. I brought my tiny backpack so I could have my journal. I was worried they’d think it was dumb – they didn’t. When I arrived, Amy just gave me the best hug...

Chapter 13 - What I’m Learning
Friday, November 5th, 2021 I drove two hours round-trip to audition for Next to Normal last night. I loved warming up in the car and my voice sounded good. I sang “Morning Person” from Shrek: The Musical, but sad. I thought it was a creative choice. All of the actors were really nice as we waited...

Chapter 12 - Hot N Cold
Thursday, November 4th, 2021 My heart feels so heavy; it’s beats seem irregular. I’m so sad. Last night, after Joffrey told me he’d do anything, that he knows what he needs to do now, that he was sorry, that he knows he’s been lacking in our relationship, and selfish… I didn’t just immediately…

Chapter 11 - Normal People
Wednesday, November 3rd, 2021 Yesterday was a good night with Joffrey. He brought home Super Bowl swag from work. He thinks maybe he could get tickets this year and that the Cowboys might play. That would be wonderful for him! I suggested he should bring someone who actually likes football and...

Chapter 10 - Really Good at Being Good
Tuesday, November 2nd, 2021 When I came home from work yesterday, Joffrey had cleaned and helped the apartment. He offered me dinner, but I couldn’t eat. He was nice again. I was exhausted and crashed on the couch. It was comfy. It was nice to rest my eyes, but couch/bed, I couldn’t sleep. We...

Chapter 8 - When You... I Feel
Sunday, October 31st, 2021 I went out with Rita yesterday. She doesn’t give the best advice, but she took care of me and I appreciated it. I cried almost all day and was confident about breaking up.

Saturday, October 30th, 2021 I talked to Olivia before she moved. Her and Voldemort saw me crying out front. She invited me in and told me this was normal for my age. She said I needed distance to flourish and he needed distance to grow. And that there are plenty of mature, grounded men out…

Chapter 5 - He Never Paid Me for My Car...
Thursday, October 28th, 2021 I’m so upset. We went to bed and he tried to rest a hand on me. I feel uncomfortable to his touch. I don’t want to feel this way, but I keep thinking about how he denied saying everything I’d said was idiotic. I stayed strong and repeated what I knew. He assured me I...

Chapter 1 - Dear Diary,
Dear Diary, I think I’ve needed a place to reflect that’s separate from the judgment of the outside world for a while. I’ve been hesitant because I’ve brought that judgment into my diaries in the past when reading through previous entries, but I want to create a sacred space where I can relieve...
