i have this cousin named Mandy. she's like my THIRD cousin or something. me & my brothers were always embarrassed about her telling people she was our cousin. she just this weird little annoying rat faced girl. (& i think her dad is her grandpa or something. i'm not sure. my friend brandi actually told me that in high school! maybe i should ask my mom.i just know that her family is hardcore hillbilly.scary-- kinda like "the hills have eyes") anyway--anytime i'd see her i think."oh god there's mandy. she gonna talk to me!" my brothers were the same way. they'd HATE it when she saw them cos they knew she'll talk their ear off about stupid shit!!!! i would always be nice & act polite when all i wanted to do was get away from her. especially after her & her husband split up. she'd stop me on the street & be like "if you see matt you tell him he needs to be at home with his wife & kids!" i'd be like"oh ok" but i was really thinking "he doesn't even WANT you leave him ALONE!" cos they hadn't been together for nearly a year at this point. he had a new girlfriend named sarah. matt was kinda my friend but it was mostly THRU my friend len. i thought Matt was funny but he was kinda annoying. he had this "i'm more goth than you " attitude. ( & he thought i was goth & wanted to take me to a goth club with him & another girlfriend Katie..?or kate.I don't remember it was so long ago) he was with katie in 99 & sarah in 2000-i think! he had another girlfriend named kristy & another one i can't reember--he did alright for someone that just got separated from his wife!!!(mandy got pregnant on purpose with matt's kid when he was nly 15 & she was 18 by the way. that's not a "relationship.")i just remember being at this apt. in '99 & mandy had called the cops & said we were having a "party" & underage kids were drinking so the police came & there we all were sitting there drinking mountain dew! & len's brother was giving me a haircut! i didn't even drink back then & she was just being a bitch cos she was mad that matt had a girlfriend. then in 2000 she wouldn't leave sarah alone & called her a bitch all the time but as soon as her & matt broke up mandy wanted to be sarah's best friend!!! talk about psycho! in early 2001 i started dating matt. as soon as mandy found out all hell broke loose. she'd follow us to the bar & watch us & she screamed at me "i can't believe my cousin is sleeping with my husband!" i mean they were still married but had been separated for almost 2 YEARS!!! this is when her & sarah buddied up & sarah told me that matt had still been sleeping with mandy. i didn't care! what he did with other girls wasn't my business...when he wasn't my "boyfriend." but mandy stalked us. she came up into my house without knocking after she sent someone else the first ime..... she used her poor children as an excuse to talk to matt. then she proceeded to yell & scream at matt on my front porch telling him not to sleep with me cos i was a whore. (& she claims she's not PYSCHO! HA!!) she also drove by me yelling shit that i didn't understand anytime she saw me anywhere in town...matt & i stopped seeing each other a few months later.
THIS WAS 6 YEARS AGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i haven't seen or talked to Matt since then (actually i saw him at wal mart recently with his girlfriend & son) i wrote this zine all about exes. it includes letters i wrote to them & i mention Mandy in it. it's like a very small paragraph...she sent me a message on Myspace about it. (which i wasn't even gonna read cos i though it was a fake profile cos there was no photo. i was just gonna delete the message. i guess i shoulda.)it started out "this is Mandy." which i could only assume was her cos she is the only Mandy that i know. i dunno why she created a new profile just to send me this message. i knew she had another Myspace page cos my brother is friends with her on there. (not in real life, she came over to my other brother's house one day & joseph poked his head inside & said "oh no here comes Mandy!" & he got rid of her by saying "jolie & jamie are inside!" if anything good happened outta going out with matt it's that Mandy will never speak to me agian! YAY!!!) so in the message she went on & on about some corey person sending her a measage about my zine. & i have a few pages from the zine posted on Etsy. so someone evidently gave her a link or something. at first i thought she was referring to another thing i wrote called "talk shit get hit" cos i mentioned her in that but not by name. i didn't read most of the messages-- i just skimmed them cos i didn't really care to read them i just wanted her to leave me alone ! she said something about how i didn't know her like i thought i did--i never wanted to know her cos i never liked her! i spent half my teenage life trying to avoid her cos we had some of the same friends.
so anyway-- i hope she's on a better meds than prozac now. medication did wonders for tim(atleast for awhile) oh well--atleast i got a little entertainment last night. i can always laugh at old stupid mandy.
