Good news...I called my baby girl!!!! Monica sounded so cute. We had a phone communication problem at one point..I was talking to her mom and for some reason I could hear her but, she couldn't hear me...When we reconnected..I told her that it was lucky that she didn't hang up...Ha ha...I'll be calling Monica every Sunday, although I can call her every day..Sunday is best. I feel more comfortable at this facility...I just hope it will fare well for me...I don't want to be in a place that is mostly violent..We'll see what happens March 15th, 2003
I've been doing well. I'm in a smaller facility that I don't like as much but, it will due. I'll just have to make the best of it. Monica has been spoiling me with letters, cards and postcards again. :P Oh guess what? I made my cousin Elsie and her boyfried Jamey a cloth drawing for their anniversary and Monica sent them a homemade card and they loved it!!! I was so happy to hear that. Monica and I's 2nd hear anniversary is coming up in May of this year.. So, we will have known eachother for 2 years..Can you believe that?! It's crazy. It doesn't seem that long for the both of us. She told me that she has something special for me. I wonder what it is.

 I apologize for how long it's been. Monica and I have had our 2nd year anniversary among other things that I will talk to you about later..But, for the most part, I'm okay..and I'm  happy.  Well, I'm not too to good really..I've had a cold for a while..I'm kind of worried about that SARS diease going on in here. I'm sure it's nothing though.. Okay, so that something special was our anniversary..She is so sweet..She made this "Virtual Marriage Certificate for us and she sent me a "Remember When" letter a long with an invitation to our "Virtual Wedding"..It's so cute...I was so shocked about it.

  I'm back...It's been a busy few months. So, yay I loved that virtual 'Marriage Certificate'!! :)  It was so sweet of her..I tell you, Monica surprises me everytime. I'm better now..I don't have a cold anymore..I was worried about it then but, I'm okay...It was just something going on in here that's finally gone. Did tell you that I sent her 2 new pictures of me...She loved them!!! I'm a little thinnier due to the me not wanting to eat some of the meals here, yuck...Some meals are so discusting. But, she got me copies and sent my family copies too.
 Oh and she sent me a food package. In the beginning of our relationship, we were writing about our favorite snacks and she mentioned these 'hot cheetos that they have out there in California and I was curious it about them and she sent them to me last year and again this year..She sent about 18 bags, along with some other snacks. I swear, I was the happiest man on earth when I opened that box! You really have to taste these cheetos, they're so addicting.
 Here's what's going on between me and Monica. Everything is great!! We understand eachother really well, we don't argue. We tell eachother the truth and what we think about certain subjects. I just can't believe the communication that we have between eachother, I love it. There was a time in the beginning of our relationship where I was telling my cousin that I really liked Monica and I had a lot of feelings for her and that I wanted to take it slow because I have been hurt before and I didn't want to go through that again. I knew Monica was the one that she wasn't the kind of person who would hurt me or anyone for that matter. I'm so in love with her and I sometimes find it difficult to believe how much lust I have for her.
 I'll get some current letters that we've sent to eachother and add it to this website so you can see how our communications is. Bye for now.

  Hey all. How are you? I'm somewhat okay, I'm been in a bad family situation lately. Things have been a little stressful for me in here. I've been attacked by all these emotions that has me all upset. My younger brother had a baby recently and my cousin broke up with her boyfriend of over a year. She moved across some states to stay with him. There are other things too that have me under some stress. But, I'm okay. When I go through things like this, I turn into a recluse and I don't communicate with anyone. It takes me awhile before I am okay to talk to my family again. And Monica, who I miss with all my heart. She was upset with me on that. I hadn't written her in a few weeks and she was telling me how she doesn't like not hearing from me because she has no idea what's going on with me. And that she only asks that I meet her half way and at least write saying that, 'I'm emotionally upset and I will  write soon.' We have to talk about this.
  I do have good news though. My sisters and their stepdad and my brother came to visit me!!! I was so surprised! I hadn't seen them in a long time. I felt good to see my family again. I sometimes get sad when I don't hear from them in awhile. I'm happy though. I miss Monica and I'm dying to be with her.
