Writing the Right Way Is Too Hard Late At Night

Sorry. I know you've said you like it better when I do the fancy writing but you have no idea how much that takes out of the little I have left by the time I sit down to do this.

Josh and I are still hanging out. A lot. Sometimes he waits for me after work and then we go to someone's house. Mostly his, because there's no privacy at mine. And nobody calls me a slut at his house. And his house has more food.

Josh's mom had a huge bowl of white peaches on the kitchen counter today. Josh and I each ate one over the sink and agreed they're really good. When I was leaving his mom handed me a paper bag with three more, and a ziplock of cherries. Can't give food away like that in my house.

She sounds like a nice woman

I definitely like your writers voice, but sometimes it's just news, right?

I'm really glad you and Josh are hanging out.

Aww man, peaches and cherries - yum! :0... Josh's Mom really sounds like a very nice person, and she seems to like you.

As for what you should or shouldn't write, this is your place to do with what you want, your say is the only one that matters :)

you know, there is something i really, really like about josh's mum. maybe you have difficulties with the fact that they have money and you don't. that you are constantly reminded of this at their house.
but i like that she sounds like she's perfectly okay with that. not like you are her charity or something, just that she acts so natural about it. i really like that.
do you know what i mean?

and about that writing ... i think you do that amazingly well if you sit down to write "fancy". but i also think this is a blog, to get down your feelings. and sometimes there is not much room for "fancy" if you want to do this, right?
