Hey, guys! I had been getting your comments in my e-mail, which goes straight to my phone, and I realized you guys were starting to worry about me.
Let me start by saying I am so sorry for neglecting you guys for the past couple weeks. My anatomy and physiology class, which I absolutely have to get an A in, has been burying me under schoolwork. I'm enjoying it, since I love science, but I barely have a spare moment to breathe! Tonight, I have to write a rough draft for a 4 page essay, do a 2 page article review, and finish work on my A&P labs from the past three weeks. I have to say, I didn't miss being in college, but I'm reveling in it!
Chapter Six is coming along beautifully, but it's already on the third rewrite. My english teacher said she believes the story has real potential, which was great to hear. I'm only a page or so away from finishing it, so I promise to post it soon...sorry the chapters are coming so few and far between!
I also just started my new job...I'm working as a collector for a debt collection agency. It's not glamorous, but the bosses and supervisors are really nice...it's a step up from working at the environmental company. I actually got a call from one of the girls I used to work with at the environmental company last week. She had the audacity to ask me to come back to work there! I had already accepted the position at the collection company, so I bit back the urge to laugh and informed her that it would be impossible due to school and my new job. She reported that back to my old boss, and I heard he wasn't very happy about it. My new company is paying me quite well and I'm only working part time, so the money is sufficient and the hours aren't extensive. Plus, I actually get weekends off, instead of just one day a week.
Brandon and I are doing great...the whole cheating thing is still rearing its ugly head every once in a while, though. Today my friend Mark (the one I spent a lot of time with when I worked at Subway) called to see if I wanted to go to the fair with him next week...despite the fact that Brandon was invited and was going to be there, he still had a lot of jealousy and we had a discussion about the whole situation. I guess the healing process is slow, and I can't expect him to fully trust me again yet...I'm just happy we're still together.
Anyway, I am going to try to have Chapter Six up for the weekend, because I'm really looking forward to advancing this story...I hope you're all doing great, and I'm going to try to post more frequent updates!

I'm so glad your life is settling down. I know you are busy with school but it seems like you and Brandon are much happier now. Hang in there. Brandon loves you and since you guys didn't split when things were all crazy I thing everything will work out. You both deserve to be happy. Love you girl!
Figured it was school that was bogging you down. Hang in there - it'll be worth every minute after you've finished. As for Brandon, I can say from experience that time is the best healer. At this point, you have to prove yourself above reproach to him 24/7 (in his mind), and only time can show him that you're committed to him 100%. Believe it or not, it has to be a conscious decision on his part to let go. That's not saying that the memories won't re-emerge (is that a word?) on occasion, but he has to be the one to decide to let them go. It's a hard hard process, but once you get through it you'll both be stronger. Be patient with him, and love him. It'll work out.
Any new updates for us J? Is everything alright?
