My best friend is going to be on the left coast and I'm not going to get to see him.
That is... unless someone has $300 (give or take) they want to let me borrow. (Or a bunch of frequent flyer miles.)
I'm not exactly surprised about the spendy plane ticket, I checked it out a month ago when I found out he was going to Orange County and it was just as spendy then. I was just hoping that there might have been some cheap last minute flights. But there were non. Oh well.
It really sucks. We were going to go to Disney Land and go to Newport and recreate scenes from "The OC" but instead I'll be at work and he'll probably get drunk in the hotel bar.
And now I have to go shower and go to work. Exciting.
Edit...
I feel, in an attempt to not sound too sad, that I should let it be known that tomorrow (if the boyfriend isn't working the night shift) we're going to see the new Star Trek. Yes I know it's not exactly new any-more but it's gonna be in the theatre and that's all that matters. Yay!
I am still really sad about not getting to see the Nathan. But I'm pretty freakin' pysched about the movie. Let's just assume that the boyfriend isn't working, cause if he is than that would be double sadness. :-((
I've spent approximately 500 and a half hours dicking around online today.
I didn't do anything I wanted to do.
Just fucked around online.
That's the problem with this Netbook. I love it so much I don't want to not use it and it doesn't fuck with my back because I don't have to sit on a yoga ball to use it.
I do need to get ready for work though. Just as soon as Little T is out of the shower. Fuck I should check my phone too. I'm sure Jolene has tried to call me.
My best friend may be moving to Boston.
And now I'm talking to him on the phone.
Peace out kids.
I haven't been to a sex store in quite awhile.
It's been six or so months.
The last time I was there I was with Nathan and Lesley and Lesley was admiring the Hitachi Magic Wand.
It seemed cool, and the Terrorist has mentioned there amazing orgasm giving abilities but to me, it wasn't worth spending $89.
We moved on (but not without purchasing other fun stuff) and until last night I hadn't thought about it again.
I've mentioned before that my boyfriend is a geek. He's big into computer geekery and his latest project is to find me a Netbook that's not insanely expensive. While doing this he's been surfing around his favourite geek sites and came upon this... Amazing Savings Plus because he's a member of newegg he gets another $5 off because of some sale they're having.
I can't pass up a deal like that!!! Though, I have to be honest... I'm a little scared.
A year ago I was living in Portland, Maine. Sharing Nathan's bed (in a purely nonsexual way) and his bedroom while working two jobs trying to save up some money to get to Portland, Oregon.
A year and a day ago there was a big-ass storm in Portland, Maine. I remember it well because I went outside to shovel my car off when Nate left so it would take less time to shovel it off when I went to work. Then, when I left to go to work this is what my car looked like, after being completely cleared 3 hours prior.
But, what can ya do? I shoveled it out again then went to work. I took this picture on my way to work that day ...
Smart of me, huh? Take a picture with road conditions that crappy... Oh well, I was at a stop light (I think.)
What I'm getting at here is that it was fucking snowy. Really, really snowy. Last winter was a very snowy winter in Maine from what I remember. (Or maybe my tolerance level has dropped because it'd been so long since I lived in Maine in the winter.)
Three days ago I had a snow day. Not the type of snow day where I decide that the roads are too crappy and I don't want to go to work (or I just don't want to go to work and use the roads as an excuse.) The restaurant I work at was CLOSED. I didn't have the option to go in if I wanted to.
This is the picture I took on Sunday (the snow day).
Notice the dark spots on the lawn? That's grass!! Which means there's only a 1/2 to an inch of snow.
Now, I understand that my perspective is different. Snow and crappy road conditions aren't nearly as common here as they are in Maine combine that with the fact that there are only 2 or 3 plows for the entire city and it makes for fucked up roads with shitty drivers all over them.
But my god, people!!
I have to often remind myself of the difference in perspectives when talking to the Terrorist about snow related stuff. I grew up in the North East. He grew up in California/Oregon. He's spent a bit of time in snowy climates but not nearly as much as I have. Though it may occasionally make me giggle I really dig the fact that he's so concerned about me. I'm not used to someone being so openly concerned for my safety, it's very different for me, and very awesome. It's just more proof that he is the nicest guy I know.
I cannot, for the life of me, remember what else I had to do today.
I've emailed my landlord, rent is all ready to go and will be mailed out as soon as I leave, I burned some cd's for Nate, I'm going to be going to the bank in a few minutes, got a place to ship my table, talked my sister into actually bringing it to the shipping place...
There's something else... I think.
Oh well, even if I forgot something I think I'm doing pretty okay.
Gotta go get us ready to take off.
Dinner went well.
Little T and I made Shepard's Pie.
I have never seen a kid eat so much freakin' food. Then, first thing this morning after I got here he comes out and asks me if there is any more and can he have it for lunch. (Actually he wanted just a "little, little, tiny piece" for breakfast too.) I think he liked it.
I sort of made my "semi-reasonable" bed time. After the kid went to be the T and I were discussing all the things we can't discuss in front of him. At some point we got on the topic of how the apartment is going to be set up. He started throwing out suggestions but because I'm such a visual person I have a hard time imagining things without seeing them. His response to this... "I have something to help with that" or something like that. He jumped up went to the computer, I sat on the couch wondering what the hell he was doing for a few minutes then more or less passed out until I woke up to him playing with my feet.
What was he doing?
Making a layout of my apartment via the Sims.
Hilarious!
After I got over my amusement at the situation I realize it was actually a pretty good idea. We didn't really decide anything except that the cable comes in the living room in a really awful spot.
I left here a little bit after midnight, got home, showered and was in bed by 1a. Later than I wanted but not that bad, add that to the fact that I didn't have to be here until 8a... I feel much better. Still tired, but feeling much better!
I miss bed sex.
Never thought I'd say that.
Though I totally enjoy the shower sex and living-room blow-jobs, I miss the non-rushed sex that comes behind closed, locked, bedroom doors.
That's gonna be some good sexin' when it happens.
Today I need to...
- Come up with something to do with a handful of strawberries.
- Send out a few resumes.
- Call my landlord, discuss plans.
- Make sure Little T is at home at 3.30p
- Decide if I'm gonna go get a drink with Miss. Kelly and what to wear when I decide that I have to go.
- Burn cd for Nate.
I talked to Nathan!!
Woot Woot!
I called and left him a voice mail then he called me back and we actually conversated.
I'm happy. And bordering on being late for work.
Tomorrow...
Print up Welcome Home Sign (maybe do that tonight if I can remember to grab paper from work)
FInd cheapest way to Ship massage table to PDX.
Color Welcome Home Sign with Lil' T.
Pay online bills at the T's with his non-stolen internet connection.
Go to bank (if time)
Text Jolene and tell her to bite the bullet and have the discussion with her gentleman friend.
I guess if the first one was really all inclusive then there wouldn't be a need for a second one but... well... I'm not perfect. Give me a fucking break. Jesus.
Sleep over at my house tonight. Woot Woot!
I like sleep overs. Not just because I get laid, actually I think I could survive without the sex tonight, I miss the sleeping together part. (Who the fuck am I kidding? I'm GETTING LAID!!! Woohoo! And I'm pretty sure I'm done my period!!!)
This coffee sucks. I stopped at 7 Virtues on my way up to the T's house to get some coffee and it tastes... like ass. At least I remembered the name this time. I've gotten this stuff before but I couldn't remember the name of it so I didn't know to avoid it.
Getting back on track...
- Tidy up my room at Lesley's room.
- Return w4's to work.
- Get gas.
- Make cd of photo's for Nate. (He responded to a photo I sent him... baby steps)
- Go to post-office - Pray ipod is there - Rock out accordingly when it is.
- Make Zucchini Cake with Little T.
- Play cribbage with Little T.
- Enjoy adult time with the T.
- Pay Lane Bryant, At&t, Mah.
- Order more checks.
- Get Oregon License.
Jesus, I just got lost on the DMV website. That thing is intense.
There's more todo but I'm not gonna do it all so who really cares if I actually list it out?
It's been fucking insanely hot this week. Okay so not really that hot but hot for this area. I like the heat, it's nice and good and wonderful as long as I don't have to actually do anything. If I can sit around all day doing nothing or just go to the beach then it's a wonderful thing.
Unfortunately life isn't like that, so more often than not when it's hot it's just uncomfortable.
Today, is rainy.
According to the Radio it's going to be rainy and stormy all week. Thundershowers type stormy.
I can't say I'm bothered by this.
I fucking love thundershowers. They're one of the greatest weather things ever. Rainy days are good for being lazy. The best thing to do on a rainy day is cuddle up in bed with that special someone and just veg all day. That sounds glorious. Though, totally not going to happen but I could wake the kid up and make him go watch movies with me in the magical bed. Somehow, it's not quite the same. :-)
Speaking of Little T. What the fuck? He's still passed out. He's NEVER slept this late. I was actually a little bit worried about him because of this I thought about checking to see if he was breathing but he's moved a bit so I wont go in there armed with a mirror to hold under his nose. It's very weird though.
I totally forgot my cds. I got a spindle of CD-R's so I could make some more work cd's and I could burn all the pictures from Nates vacation to cd for him. (Still haven't heard from him.) But I fucking forgot the fuckers on my ironing board. Oh well, I can at least get shit ready to burn that way when I have them tomorrow I wont have to fuck around with that.
Ohh shit. I should go google home made claydough while I'm thinking of it.
Little T is awake. I can see him sitting up in bed looking out the window. I used to do that when I was a kid on rainy days wake up and just stare out the window before admitting to the world I was awake. I also used to do it here when the T would get up before me. But that was usually to shoot very mean glares to the construction workers who were being so fucking loud they woke me up. Bastards.
Nathan's still not talking to me.
We got in a fight the other night and I haven't heard from him since.
I thought it might be one of those drunken fights that we quite often have when he says mean things but doesn't exactly remember it.
We both said mean-ish things though.
Oh well... I have a feeling I might be cutting my nose off to spite my face but I'm not going to call him.
(At least not yet.)
I really wish I didn't have kid care today. I totally wanna go crawl into bed and hide from the world. Or at least smoke a big fat bowl.
Ps. Little T has the CUTEST LAUGH EVER!!! It's like a mix of a baby's laugh and a hiccup. It's fucking adorable.
