E-mail to Parents

The following is an e-mail that I started to write to my parents and then just kind of exploded. I didn't send them this e-mail who e-mail. Anything below the cut did not get sent them. The names have been changed to make sure I do not get fired from my job!

To: Mom and Dad
From: Laney
Date: Um Today (duh!)
Subject. I am not not picking up the phone.

Okay I am not picking up the phone but for a very good reason. The trackball on my phone stopped working so ATT told me to go to the warranty replacement center. They replaced my phone, track ball working and everything, for free! No activation fee either! Only when I finally get home to look up Jen's phone number to make a phone call guess what. It sounds like I am under water! I am going to try again tomorrow morning and hope that maybe it just needs to sync up to the network properly but if not I will have to journey back to ATT tomorrow to get this fixed again!

Thank you so much for looking up that book for me. I am now 43 out 50 on the waitlist. I didn't move up, but the waitlist got longer. LOL! I guess we know what I will be asking for Christmas. Still it is to bad because I finally figured out how to make audiobooks work on my laptop so that the screen goes dark but they keep on playing so it's kind of like falling asleep while listening to a book which I used to do all the time. Only now the problem is I wake myself up because I am so interested in the book and then force myself to stay up again. But at least I am getting a few hours a night. I am hoping that once finals are over and my brain relaxes more I will be able to sleep again.

The happenings of a survivor...

My name is Laney Marie, well that's my nick name anyway and it's the name that I choose to go by. Due to the nature of this weblog I wish to maintain some anonymity. Also this description is to serve as a warning to parents of younger children. So please pay attention:

When I was two (2) years old I was sexually abused. The situation of course was well handled by Child Protective Services and my parents. When I was seventeen (17) years old I fell victim to what they call an acquaintance rape, meaning that I was raped be someone who I knew.

This weblog will be a record of my journey through recover. At times some of the entries well be dark and will discuss the events around both incidents. Other times this will merely be a record of things that have happened to me throughout my day.

I have chosen to publish this weblog to help others out there who have gone through the same thing. Also to help parents understand what their children are going through.

Feelings do not make sense, they are made out of gray area, so please while you try to apply logic to I have gone through and what I am going through keep that in mind.
