Today was a bad day. Robin Williams is dead, and I am very upset about it. For several reasons, really. Firstly, he was hilarious. Secondly, he was huge in the 90's, when I was growing up, ...

---

So sick of my brother and his foghorn voice. Ranting and raving about how his work hasn't been paying him properly since he injured himself. Fact: He was required to complete light duties, and...

---

You'll be pleased to know that the pimple in my ear has subsided. The wine and pizza night was great fun. Everyone ended up making basically the same pizzas, because all the toppings looked goo...

Yesterday I had coffee with Pickles before he left for Borneo. I was worried that I might leave before he gets back. I HOPE I leave before he gets back. I will miss him, though. He's a great ...

My GoFundMe page has been amazingly successful. I was mortified at the idea of posting it on my Facebook page, and letting people I haven't seen in years know that I am broke and asking for help...

---

As time passes, and I continue to panic, I have taken a leaf out of a fellow diarist's book: http://www.gofundme.com/PutMeNextToMyHusband Now, I have no expectations here. If you can spare a ...

---

Have been awake since 4:30am, crying my eyes out. I am going to wait a while before writing another entry here, it'd only be more "woe is me" bullshit anyway.

---

It has been a difficult couple of days. I marked one year since my Ernie left for America, and tomorrow will be one year since M left. I remember bursting into tears at 5pm on Thursday, 1 Augus...

---

I think I forgot to mention that my psychopathic step-mother surfaced again yesterday. I hadn't had any calls or texts since May, when I had sent it all on to my father, and she had blocked me o...

---

I feel like I'm just in this void where all I do is mess around online, snooze and watch tv. I am lazy and tired and losing track of time. I'm freaking depressed as anything. I am fighting my...

---

I had a dream last night that M's form arrived in the mail today. I checked it earlier, and there was nothing. It should be here any day now, and I can send it away with my documentation to the...

Slow day today. I did nothing but watch my mother's tenant move out of the front house, and my brother and the kid from down the street knock the laundry off the front house and smash the steps ...

---

Feeling ruffled after a phone call from Dad today, Saturday, when he had said he would call last Monday. It was brief, and almost felt as though he was calling just so that he could say he did. ...

---

Awake at 4:36am, like an idiot. I woke just before 4am, and just can't get back to sleep. My mind is ticking over with a million thoughts, one of which is that I had hoped to arrive in America ...

---

After falling into a funk, I had decided that I would spend yesterday firmly planted in my bed, reading and watching movies. After having my usual morning tea with my neighbour, I headed back ...

I got an email from the visa office today - they want me to send in my original birth certificate, marriage certificate etc. I was infuriated, because I sent the originals and copies in the firs...

Feeling like I'm going nowhere fast. It's a horrible feeling, and it's not correct. I only sent my forms to the US Consulate on Friday (the ones I had to send, the main one I did online when I ...

---

Can someone please give me instructions on how to "unfollow" certain books? Most diarists on here have several books running, but I only want to follow one or two books per author. To be blunt ...

---

This morning I went next door for a cuppa. My neighbour was getting ready for a doctor's appointment, so I spent some time with a friend of ours who is in town visiting her seriously ill mother ...

---

This week has disappeared on me. Tomorrow is Friday, I can hardly believe it. Nothing much has happened. I have been spending my days hanging out with my neighbour. Stayed up late a few nig...

---

Dubbo was uneventful. My friend Heslop was still a bit weird and too flirty, but that may be a side effect of his anxiety over me leaving. It's higher than I had thought. But we had a nice wee...

---

I have been inspired by another diarist to put up an entry of photographs from my old photobucket account. This is my most recent shot, after a hair cut a month or two ago. I look glum because ...
