Autumn begins next month and I am eagerly awaiting the cold weather because I feel sick of the summer heat… It has been quite hot out lately; way too hot for me. The heat wave has gotten me feeling really sluggish and irritated; I do not think that I will ever get used to the weather of any season. I need an air conditioner or a fan; I think that I am going to buy one sometime…
I had ordered The Passion of The Christ on DVD for my mother last week. It arrived yesterday morning and I sat down to watch it because I was really bored… I had seen once before, shortly after it was available for rental… My mother had rented it out and made me sit down and watch it. At that time I was going through a rough stage with my depression; refused to pray and go to church amongst other things… My mother thought that it would make me change my feelings towards God etc…
Anyway, I cried the first time I had watched the movie and I cried this time too… I do not think that I like that movie. It made me feel a little weird; sad, hurt… I was filled with mixed emotions and it just made me depressed… I do not know exactly why though…
Home has become a place filled with lots of fighting and stress lately… Actually fighting and stress are quite the norm here but lately things have been getting worse…
The tenants that had been renting a part of my father’s building decided that they would pack up and leave without notice this past Saturday… Not to mention running off with thousands of rands owed to my father for rent after destroying the counter (which belongs to my father) on their way out. There were a lot of things happening that day involving threats made to my father, fighting and the police…
This is not the first time that someone has run off owing my father money… This time my father is going to sue these people. The previous tenants that owe my father money for rent had disappeared could not be found my father’s lawyer and whatnot so my father could not sue them…
My father and I went to his property on Monday morning to take photos of how the tenants had left the place… I felt sick the moment I had walked into that place, it smelled horrible. The counter was in pieces on the floor and the place was filthy, not only inside but outside the side door, there were stinking garbage bags piled against the wall and cigarette buds all over… Inside one of the kitchen sinks were rotting potato fries, I do not even want to know how long they had been there for but the smell was vile. There were garbage bags inside the place too and the floors stained and grimy as if they had never washed the floors. It was all disgusting!
So my father has lost more money and with less money coming in at his shop, money is going to be an issue because he has to pay his lawyer to take these fuckers to court and sue them…
And I thought that this year was starting off better than last year… In regards to family, that is…
Oh but there was some good that came out of Saturday… Besides spending the day with Victor (which is always good) and some family at my younger cousin’s birthday, a very special kind of good has come for my whole family… My aunt gave birth to her daughter on Saturday! I have a new cousin and I can not wait to meet her…
Valentine’s day marked one month of my relationship with Victor. I hope that there will be many more good months to come in the future for us…
I really did not know what to buy for his Valentine’s gift… On Tuesday I went to the mall and had a look around, there were so many women in the stores doing their last minute Valentine’s shopping, I guess… Anyway I had bought Victor a black collar shirt, a pair of socks with a skull on them, a skull and spike wristband and chocolates. He liked his gift so I am glad about that…
Again when I opened the front door as he arrived, he gave me a beautiful bunch of red roses and a little gift bag. After placing the roses in a vase and setting it in my room, he handed me a very small gift bag. In that very small gift bag was a little silver box and inside of that was a ring. Victor told me it was a promise ring as I had opened it. I really like it; it is silver and has a large black stone in the middle, my favorite color… And it just fits!
I mainly like it so much because of the promise that was made to me when I had received it…
In the other small gift bag was a little stuffed toy, a “Love Bug”. It is cute.
Our day consisted of watching Underworld’s sequel, making out and eating ice cream sundaes at Milky Lane amongst other things…
All in all, it was a good day…
