K's infatuation

Dear FutureMe, It's been a year since I saw him at my uncle's funeral. I'm glad we talked, but there was so much more I wanted to say and didn't. I realize he probably doesn't need or want it, but I wanted to apologize if I hurt him all those years ago (as two of his brothers told me). At first I thought he was over me. Afterall, he has a wife and two children. But then I saw him steali...

Dear Greg, People will tell you that you did the best you could, but you know that isn't entirely true. People will tell you that it isn't your fault, but you know differently. There is no need to come down on yourself, but don't fool yourself either. You didn't have to hit Zach, but you did. That was the catalyst, that set the dominoes falling. You had no control over everything that f...

happy birthday

Dear FutureMe, You're writing this on your birthday last year. It is one of the "suckiest" birthdays you've ever had so far. You were fighting back small tears a minute ago. Here's what happened. 1. your mom's birthday package (The Sims Party Pack) did not come in the mail as expected for the last 4 days. 2. ONE dvd came in the mail and it was cracked in half. (you were expecting mor...

The shape of disorder...

Dear FutureMe, Here's a trip down that infamous lane...you and Cate are working on her concept of respect for you as a parent; Noah is into Star Wars and anything adventure (did you refurb that play army rifle of yours, when you were his age, and pass it down to him?) Mom is 57 and still vibrant and healthy. How is dad? Right now y'r thinking he might be gone at any moment. Have you ...

You were sad today

Dear FutureMe, You have spent the last three weeks tortured over Courtney Mandarino. You missed her terribly. You were not sure why she needed a break or what precipitated her moving out. I've been trying to get in touch with her so that I can break things off. I wrote a break up email and everything. I don't know if she cares anymore, I don't know if she's thinking about me. I'm no...

Yo. Maryann? You wrote this when you were drunk.

Dear FutureMe, It's 1 in the afternoon, but your hip hurts so you mixed Hawiian Iced Tea and Vodka. Your mIRC window is flashing and your fantsy role playing freinds think that you are lying down, but you heard this site featured on NPR and you, in your drunken state, thought it was a fab idea. FAB, I tell you. You are still scared about working in the Phone Sex industry despite...

Life is a wreck, is it any better now?

Life has changed immensely from day to day. Let's see how things are now.... As I'm writing this I'm at my mother's house. No job. No car. No Jesse. By now, 6 months later, I should have an ok job, a car. Looking into starting school maybe? Any of that going on? If not, then what happened? Right now, I'm hoping and praying that I have my Jesse back. That he's gotten his life together...

So you made it to 30...

Dear FutureMe, So I hear you're turning 30 today. God, there were some tough times, huh? I can remember how sometimes you never imagined you'd make it past 18. Now you've grown so much since then... or have you? Guess that's a question for you to answer, FutureMe. When you read this and think about your life over the last three decades, I hope you gain some perspective. Remember how ...

a message from the past

Dear FutureMe, On January 26th, 2005, you went on a date with the girl of your dreams. You went to The Liffey, an Irish Pub in St. Paul. You were sick with a cold and were sucking on cough drops all night, but you could not have been happier that night. Then, one week later, on February 3rd, you watched Amelie in this girl's apartment. And before you left you kissed her, and she kissed ...
