No Carrie Quote today.

I'm scared. I just received an e-mail from a college friend of mine who isn't too happy. She talked about death and dying. She talked about how dying didn't seem like that bad of an option. She also told me not to call her. I don't know what to think or do but I'm freaking out. Please say some prayers for my friend, W.

Thank you,

~ Fat Chick

P.S. What should I do?

UPDATE: I tried calling her and received her voicemail. I'm going to keep trying throughout the day. Thank you for your advice and prayers.

UPDATE 2: After trying to get a hold of W on the phone without success I found her Mom's number and gave her a call. I told her about the e -mail and my concern for her and her Mom went to her house. The last I heard her Mom reported that W was "ok". I'm still worried though.

Party!

Carrie Quote of the Day:

Carrie: It’s a pattern.

Samantha: I don’t have a pattern.

Carrie: In math, randomness is considered a pattern.

Samantha: Yes, and I’m what they call a prime number.

Ok, so this “nervous Nellie” (me) finally worked the courage up to start talking to more people. I know you all are going to laugh at the irony of this (because goodness knows, I still am) but I’ve buddied up with ‘Barbie’ these past few weeks. The way it got started was by me showing her my “talents” in my flower arranging. We started talking and soon found ourselves having a good time (weird, I know!).

I figured it was a fluke thing but by the next day she was over in my cubicle whispering in my ear about all of the ‘secrets’ of this great company I work for. Then she starts telling me about all of the drama happening with her up and coming wedding (which she just invited me to). I mean this is all happening so fast I don’t know what to think.

Then she drops a “big” one on me. She invited me to go out with her and a bunch of her friends and family for a little “going away” party. Yes, I’ve thought about how funny it is that we’re developing a “friendship” just before she moves to Florida but I figured this could be a trial run for me. So next Tuesday I’ll be “partying with the best of ‘em”. That also happens to be My Prince and I’s 7-year anniversary so I won’t be able to party too long. But who knows? Maybe I’ll meet some more people to build friendships with who aren’t moving to Florida.
