Hey Everbody! Wow, I have a lot of catching up to do.  I just got back from my vacation in Maine, and I was actually able to do a lot of reading for fun (imagine that!) now that I am done with school.  I am now so full of words and ideas that I know I need to write, but don't know where to begin. :-) Plus, I can't wait to read all the wonderful stuff you guys have been writing.  I just thought I'd say hello. :-) ~Vi

thanks! Yes, Bridgeport is where I want to be right now. I was born in Bridgeport and have lived there off and on over the years. My grandparents and cousins have always lived there. I left Albuquerque because I needed my family. I left behind my boyfriend and friends and a decent job because it finally hit me that I need to get my strength back. I need to get my head together and start getting serious about issues I have pushed to the back of my mind. I've chased after love my entire adult life and not taken my education or career seriously. As a result, I am 31 years old with no credit and a shitload of debt and low self-esteem. It would have been easy to stay in New Mexico and cling to my boyfriend, as has always been my pattern. I'm doing the hard work now. And I'm glad. Thanks for askin'! Hope things are good with you. eBuLLIenCe!!!

p.s. yes, Bridgeport is in Texas...not too far from Fort Worth and Denton. I've always called it BFE=Bum Fuckin' Egypt. I need to live in a pasture for awhile, before the next merry on the go round!
