names listed in alphabetical order

André "the spook" [FB's cousin]: I've known him since around the end of June 2000 during Lindsey's visit. She figured I shouldn't talk to him since his username was rather odd. I still corresponded with him anyway and it turned out he was fun and rather welcoming. I think of us as friends, yes? yes! hehe. His letters are great and vast, too. It takes me like ten minutes to read what he sends. We got back in contact due to "Awlbee" (which I'll forget about since that was straaange). We would write detailed emails back and forth. We haven't spoken since November 2001.

Atalia: We've been online friends for a long time. She's Sagiv's sister. We ended up chatting after I found her through a pen pal email group back in 1997.

Brian [cee]: I supposedly got him and Starcat "together" by inviting him to join the Squishy Forum back in November 2000 or something. I don't know about that, but he's still in Florida and we only talk when I get an email or card now.

Bryan [Barista]: He used to be an honourary member of the weblog team, but then his email became defunct and I figured he wasn't coming back. Then he ended up sending me an email and now he's on icq; we chat every other night or so. It's nice to catch up. We still talk mostly about music.

Carlos: Hm...I had the worst crush on him for 3 complete years (eighth grade - sophmore year and only cause he moved!). I still think about him occasionally since he was a big part of my life for YEARS (people would tease that we were like family the way he stuck to me like peas in a pod, yo!). I do wonder if he'll call again in another year. He likes to surprise me.

Dad: I don't get along with him too well. I mean, he is okay now - he is getting better at knowing patience and when not to speak and what to say. He still slips up occasionally and I'll get frustrated and leave the room (I must mention that he only comes over once every month or two to say 'hi'). At least we can have a normal chat once in awhile without killing one another. HAH!

Dan: Met him through Sephira (a forum I frequent) chats on AIM back in November 2001 I think. He *gets* zee "mope rock" (in fact I got that term from him...wahoo!)

Dino: I met him back on March 4, 2000 and that was exciting. And um, that's where it ends. He's no longer missing in action though so now I can breath a sigh of relief! I didn't want to be numbah waan suspect in keelling 'im. muahahaha! Anyway, I haven't heard from him in awhile (a looong while) and MSN no longer works, so I'd have to email him. It's too bad if we don't meet again cause I've gotten better at zee racing games.

Ethan: I forget exactly how I met him, but we just started sending emails back and forth for many months starting at the beginning of my first summer out of high school. Looong ass ones too that would take an hour to reply to; filled with URL's, what we were up to and the like; I enjoyed writing them. We then talked on icq from February 2000-around January or February 2001? He was a part of the wellyeah team from July till end of September 2000 when he quit. We don't talk as often anymore; just little bits and pieces now and then. I still have the anime drawing he did of me back in December 1999 hanging on my fridge.

Evita: I knew her since eighth grade. She had come over various times...we used to go on shopping trips on weekends. I haven't seen her since May 1999 during the Senior Walk on our last real day of school. I miss our phone conversations even though they would last three hours and most of it would be her drifting off into space while watching tv and I'd be doing something on the computer. Siigh. I wonder if we'll ever meet again? Possibly, but it's a big doubt.

Gabe: Another somewhat cousin. Not really sure of our actual relation (second cousin, perhaps?). I was just told. I see him from time to time if I'm visiting in Ohio and he visited here twice with grandma and grandpa (once for my graduation and the other time in April 2001 just cause..)

Grandma (mom's mom): Yes, grandma is good. We get along when we're not in the same area for too many months which is good. She has an obsession with food. I like when she yells out "III Huuuungrrryyy!" over and over again. ^_-

Grandpa (mom's dad): He is very generous and has the right intentions when he does certain things. Sometimes, what he does isn't good though and would get me mad...like when he tried to get me to change my routine and when he thinks I always need company. Some of the good things are that he does care a great deal about all of us and he helped mom out by buying us the townhouse and I'm coowner of it! Also, he gives me and lindsey $100 a month and no one else does that. yes, he is very good. He now keeps saying he'll rent me a computer if I come visit in Ohio soon :P

"Guest, The": He's um, interesting. We see him about once a month - he stays for a weekend. That's about all really. I've seen him around since August 1999.

Heather: She graduated, so I haven't seen her since the end of junior year... I knew her since seventh grade. My goth friend; she only started that phase junior year though.

James/Synthdog/melodywhore/H.G. [Husband Guy]/M.F. [Married Friend aka Mutha Fucka :P]: Wooha!! He's fun. Need I say more? Oh yes, I could. Listen to his music!

Jorge [whorhed]: We met December 15, 2001. I forget exactly the day we started talking, but the 'history' on ICQ goes back to October 30. I read abit of it and found this funny (I just recalled sayin' it): I don't call it punk either. I just call it emo. uh yeah. Too cool for school. III smmahht. We got abit friendly I s'pose; the three times we met. He gave me my first kiss. We haven't seen each other since December, but still talk once in awhile.

Josh [FB]: Another one of "those" types I thought I hit it off with. He never wrote back. Yes, FB stands for Fake Boyfriend if you were wondering. I no longer would like him to stroke my hair and call me princess thankyouverymuch!! Though I still want to be his friend even years later seeing as I found out he didn't hate me :(

Lindsey: She's my cousin, but she's also a friend. We talk all the time on AIM about various things - mostly music and anime. She also writes for the weblog team every so often.

Mom: We get along great. Right now we share a townhome near Houston, Tx; we both own it. We both sell things on eBay, but she does it more for wholesaling and making a living and I do it to get money to buy better things like pawning off things ya don't want. We both have domains (obviously ya know mine) - hers is here. I can't believe I'm admitting this, but she had her page up a few days before I started my page (way back when; I was the first to get a domain - hers was bought in February 2000 and mine in May 1999). I had a crappy one up on aol, but that one's long gone! We also have lovely chats at night and we enjoy some of the same music even though I don't think I'll ever like Shawn Phillips (though he does look like Katsuhito/Yosho from Tenchi!! - I yell out "there goes Shawn! Shawn Phillips!"). I like the Rent soundtrack and Johnny Mathis. We at least share that interest.

Nash: He's the only one who had admitted to liking me in 2000 (the year of the rejection). What a revelation. He was nice though [besides that whole Jaydee multiple personality thing] and bought something for my birthday...that was nice! I don't think we're going to ever hang out since I lost him on icq. Oh well.

Richard: I met him through that Houston Matchmaker thing online back in March 1999. I crushed him alot at the beginning of 2000 and abit after the dream I had in October 1999, but got over it and onto more rejection afterwards! Now I soooo *heart* him yet again. He brightens my day, but just cause he thought what I had to say about him before was funny I'm leaving it up as well: We don't talk often unless he's bored and/or wants to say something weird. He still likes to say something weird.

Sagiv: Ex internet boyfriend from January-May 1997. He's in the Marines now and we don't talk at all anymore.

Shaun [touga kun]: Internet boyfriend from August 2001-December 2001 (though actually it was over in my mind by November since we hardly talked that month).

Starcat: Met her on the Squishy Forum. I think I was about the first person to speak to her when I saw her post a topic in gatherings. Anyway, maybe that's why Brian thinks I semi-set them up, but I'm not that clever :P She's fun to talk to on AIM.

Teri/Theresa: She used to be my best friend; I knew her since first grade. She came over every weekend and we always thought up a new thing to do. She made up the game 'jumprope killer'. We always had fun and had memorable moments; she moved alot, but we always kept in touch and when she'd move back we'd start where we left off. She just turned weird one day and never made any sense. I think this certain circle of friends influenced her. I haven't seen her since August 1998. I still miss her and wonder what really happened. (Plus, mom thought she saw her at Starbuck's one day back in April or May 2001)

Will: We first spoke in email over my website August 1, 2001 I believe. We're really close. I mean, we say the same sentences at the same time sometimes! That took me and mom years to perfect! Plus, he makes my evenings fun. Instead of reading a book I have the powaaah over conversation to keep him in his place. Heh heh :P
Oh yeah, we met October 13, 2001; that was a lovely visit and I hope to hang out with him again sometime....in fact, I still listen to the mix he made me; it's one of my favourites.

I hope I didn't forget anyone. that would suck.
