"A Bad Moving Experience"    07/26/02 I had just moved into my new apartment, but I had a roommate.  Her boyfriend didn't actually live with us, but he came to our apartment all the time.  I knew that he was on drugs.  I felt paranoid that he would overdose, but my roommate (his girlfriend) seemed indifferent about her boyfriend's drug habit.  My roommate and I were going to go to some kind of dance/party in our building.  We were deciding what to wear, but my roommate suddenly decided not to go.  That choice could have been influenced by the outfits we planned to wear.   I was wearing a lime green mesh shirt.  I think it must have been an ' 80s party because I can't imagine that anyone would wear a shirt like that now.  Suddenly my parents and much of my extended family, as well as my roommate's family, arrived at the apartment.  We all went out to dinner.  I felt as if I was surrounded by too many people.  We walked back from the restaurant, but got lost on the way.  Eventually we made it back to my building, but I discovered that the building was under construction.  It seemed like everything bad that could have happened that day did happen that day. "Unprotected"    07/21/02 While staying at my grandmother's house I had unprotected sex and was paranoid that I was pregnant.  I spoke to the potential father.  He seemed to be indifferent about the situation.  He wasn't interested in having a committed relationship with me.  I felt so depressed.  I was crying, but I told him that I understood.  I explained that he was treating me the way that I had treated Travis.  I explained that Travis had loved me, but I had broken his heart.  I told my friend that I thought he was afraid to be in a committed relationship with anyone.  I could tell by the shocked look on his face that he and I both realized that my assumption was correct.  He made an excuse that he had to go run some errands.  I let him go.  I felt as if I would never see him again.  I went to school.  Louis sat beside me in class.  He was telling me something about how a person's trustworthiness is proportional to his/her metabolism.  I was really worried that Louis would find out what had happened to me. "A Cat in His Cereal"    07/10/02 A friend of mine came over unannounced.  He said he could not drive home from school and asked if he could stay at my house.  I was afraid that my parents would disapprove, but I said yes.  I told him that he could sleep in our guest bedroom.  I had originally wanted to sleep outside in my hammock with him, but I decided that would be a bad idea.  My friend began pouring a gigantic bowl of cereal.  He said he was preparing it for the next morning.  He was about to put plastic wrap over the bowl when I noticed something floating in the cereal.  We unwrapped the bowl and a black cat jumped out.  The cat appeared to be wounded.  I was very worried about it.  I was also worried that my father would make me put the cat outside.  I spoke to my father and tried to calm him.  He seemed very agitated by the whole situation. "A Scenic Mall Trip"    07/01/02 My mother, father, brother, one of my uncles, two of my cousins, and Jillian, and I were going to the mall together, but for some reason we were riding on a boat to get there.  Jillian had tried to hand me some hair clips, but she dropped them over the side of the boat.  I tried to reach them, but I almost fell out of the boat.  Luckily someone from my family pulled me back before I fell overboard.  Jillian said that she hoped that the girl she was holding them for wouldn't be mad that we had lost the clips.  I felt angry because she was blaming me for something that was really her fault.  I began to feel very sick and decided to take a nap.  When I woke up I was at the mall.  I went shopping alone.  I had gone in a very weird looking store that sold pretty but useless items.  I wanted to buy gift certificates for the store.  The gift certificates looked like little gold coins.  Of course, there was a problem with the gift certificates, so eventually I decided not to buy them.  I went to the hotel room in the top of the mall where my family was staying.  I decided it was time for another nap.  Eventually my family came and woke me up.  I wanted to keep sleeping, but I noticed that there were two people that I didn't recognize.  My family told me that those people were married.  I wondered if they were getting married or if they were on their honeymoon.  Then I wondered if I was getting married.  I still felt so sick, but I didn't want to interrupt the married couple, so I left with my family.
