Cast I've thought about adding this page for a little while now, but I just haven't. Usually when I start talking about someone new, I say who they are in the entry, but for those people who don't feel like reading through all my entries (shame on you), I'll put together a general list. Family My Mother and Stepdad ~ Yvonne and Dave. I've lived with them most my life. They raised me and were responsible for most my moving around in life. They live in Illinois now. William ~ My half brother, though I usually refer to him as "my brother". He's 19 now and lives down in San Diego. FOr some strange reason, we're fairly close. My Dad and Stepmom ~ Ron and Barbara. They moved to the east coast when we (my mom and that half of my family, including me) moved to England. I didn't see them very often after we moved there or after we moved back to California. David/Dave ~ Half brother. He's 18 at the moment and will turn 19 on August 4th. He's going to school in Washington DC for music. Matthew ~ Half brother. He would be turning 17 this year, but he died of Leukemia in August of 1998. Joshua ~ Another half brother. Josh is my youngest brother. We're separated by 14 years or so. Ann ~ My mother's sister, my aunt. She's keeping my cats right now, and she's just fun. She'd probably have to be my favorite out of all my aunts and uncles. The only one that comes close to her is her and my mother's brother, John. Friends Erin ~ One of the only friends I have left from my third high school. One of my best friends in the San Diego area. Karen ~ Another of my best San Diego area friends. We like to dress up like girls from time to time when we go out with the guys. Tony ~ Karen's sorta best friend. They've known each other for years and years. He's into her, but she's not into him like that. I used to have a crush on Tony. Dave ~ I adore dave. Even more-so now that he's moved back to Encinitas. Patrick ~ One of Tony's roommates and just a all round nice guy. Alicia ~ My closest friend who lives up near me. I met her at work and we just go out and do whatever. Gerald ~ One of my oldest friends from my first high school. Guys Matt ~ One of the first guys I was really, really interested in. I've recently been back in touch with him and he's still a doll. Kieth ~ My best friend of 10 years turned sour by my mistake. Probably one of the only regrets I have. Jason ~ Jason and I were sorta kinda "together" for almost a year. I say sorta kinda 'cause he was the first and only internet thing that I got into. I still talk to him when I can. Randy ~ A guy I met when I hung out at Tony's apartment all the time. Karen went out with him for a bit, but he turned out to be a jerk in the end. Daniel ~ Patrick's younger brother. I met him when Patrick moved back in with Tony. He's got an adorable little boy named Evan. Things didn't get a chance to work out between us, and I got mad at him for it. That was what was going on when I started this diary. Nolan ~ Just a guy at work that I was interested in. Shane ~ Works in Floor and Wall and is fairly new to the store. He's got a very cute little girl, and I do have a minor crush on him. I don't expect anything to come of it though. Chris ~ Chris is probably my most recent, long lasting "crush" and probably the most unexpected one for me as well. I used to work with Chris in the paint department. Him and I constantly got into trouble for not doing a good close when we worked together or something like that. He doesn't work with me anymore, but I still talk to him from time to time. People I work with My Department Janet ~ The department head/manager. She's a very nice person, but she's also high strung. She won't just let me be mad at her, so she's very frustrating for me. Jerry ~ the "dirty old man" in the department. He's fun though. Carlos ~ One of the newer guys. He worked for the company before, but took a year off. Scott and I were working the first night Carlos worked at the store. Carlos just jumped right in and he most definitely fits in with us. Scott ~ Scott reminds me a lot of William, though his personality is more like David's. Betty ~ She's the quiet one. Until you get to know her, then she's as screwed up as the rest of us. Jon ~ I first mentioned him way back in the diary. I mentioned thinking he was in hardware, but he was never in hardware. He wears contacts which makes him have some of the most gorgeous eyes I have ever seen. Joey ~ Joey and I get along, then we clash, then we get along, etc... We worked together at returns as well as in paint. Wade ~ My newest trainee. He's sweet and a bit naughty. He's working to get full time and I hope he gets it. Rodney ~ Works in Kitchen and Bath. I'm sorta his adopted daughter now that my parents have moved away. Lars ~ I adore Lars. He's probably one of my closest friends at work (besides Alicia and Rodney) Mike ~ Used to be DH of garden and is now the Assistant Manager of the Overnight crew. He's the only one I know that has read most of the diary. Dana ~ Works in Carpet. Alicia and I went out with her once. She's fun and interesting. Margo ~ Works at Returns. She's a co-conspirator for "the list" and is just plain fun. Ruben ~ Works in Plumbing. I'm just getting to know him. Closer ~ Works in Garden. Margo wants to give my story to him to read. Front end managers ~ Maria (FES), Tina, Sheila, Chantha, Greg, Shelley, Marci, Nancy. Store manager and ASMs ~ Marc (SM), Brian, Michelle, Terry, Jeremy, Monica. That's a lot of people, and I'll probably add more later. It's hard to think of all the people that I talk about from time to time.
