Alright, so I'm twenty years old and I've only ever had one boyfriend in the past (who lasted ten days because I ended it promptly)---and now I've found myself someone new.

Why, then, do I feel so horrible about it?

It's fun to flirt, fun to think about getting married, having kids, going out on romantic dates---but as soon as I put my foot through the door, I get hit by this wave of trepidation. Is it just me? Please tell me it isn't, because this guy is so sweet and kind. I don't want to jump the gun because of an itchy trigger finger.

And almost to add insult to injury, there's an older fellow I've kind of been crushing on for the last little while who told me he kind of felt the same.

Any suggestions in the matter?

A/N: Wow, it’s been a while...I apologize.

As a side note—since I love making references to both the comics and the television shows, you might find a few in the following chapters. I’ll point them out at the bottom of each chapter.

Warnings: violence, obvious insanity and the death of innocent (or not-so-innocent) bystanders...after all, this is about the Joker...

A/N: Sorry about the long hiatus. Finals ended in April but I was jumping around everywhere for a while. On a side note, I’m also posting this on fanfiction.net (under the same title), so if you’d much rather just read it there I’ll leave you a link and stop posting it on LJ.

I just got home from work and found THIS:

http://chucktv.net/2009/05/02/chuck-renewed-likely/

I've never known Nikki Finke to jump the gun before (kind of the 'no-nonsense' type of person) but I'm not going to break out into song and dance until Monday when I see/hear the news myself. .

Having said that...*does a dance in her head*

...Is it just me, or hass chucktv.net been acting a little wonky the last couple of days.

Anywho, I'm just trying to see if there's an update on the Save Chuck situation.

Gotta find a way to send some Nerds...(the candy)...

I'm going to go pass out now.

I just spent an hour fighting with livejournal in a vain attempt to post my next update in one post. I was always "too long".

Took up three parts.

@#$%!

Well, once that was over I realized I had a total of 66 posts on my journal and since I'm superstitious I decided to post this just to make it 67.

Yay for craziness!

Dopobachennya, my friends.
