A Weekend of Tiredness

So what all has Chris been up to lately?

One hell of a lot! I left work early Friday to go help my dad get my mom’s b-day present. I had to leave 4 hours early to go help him. We get home, I take all my shit inside, including my backpack which still had my cell phone in it. And then we leave.

We had to drive to the Airport because my dad rented my mom a mustang for the week. We drive there, a good 80 all the way because I hate driving my dad places. I also have the windows down and the music loud so that I couldn’t talk to him. We get there and I had to park cause he wanted me to come in incase there was something wrong and they didn’t have the car ready or something. So I follow him in, he hands me $3 for parking. I’m like, hello? How about paying me for the gas that I wasted driving all the way from Ames, to our house, and then to the Airport, or how about paying me for the 4 hours that I had to miss from work. He gets the keys and then walks off.

No “Hey, thanks” for driving him there, no thanks for taking time off work. Nothing. You know, I really didn’t have to go and help him. I really didn’t have to, but I was being nice by taking time off work. And one other question I have, why didn’t Andy just drive him. He’s got a car, he could have just followed him home. Why the hell couldn’t Andy have done this. I was so pissed off by that time at that asshole. Thanks alot!

So I get back on Highway 5 bypass cause I wanted to get back to WDW to get some things for Andrew, and a b-day card for his mom. By this time it was 4:15 or so. I start driving, doing a good 80, when about 2 miles from the Fluer exit, traffic suddenly STOPS! I was like, “Great, just what I need.” I figured it was just road work or something, and we’d get through it fairly quickly. So I stick it out, and get up a little closer (Because everyone was turning around in the median, and being complete assholes about it) and I see that it’s actually an accident and the entire road is BLOCKED! So I get up to a spot where my little car can make the median and turn around. Drive back to Fluer, get off and then drive ALL THE WAY through downtown DM, through rush-hour traffic and get onto 235, again more rush hour traffic. I finally made it to WDW and go to B&N to price a book for my mom about 5:15ish. I wanted to have everything done and have made it back to PC to get my phone, which I forgot initially and then back to Waukee to meet Andrew shortly after 5:30. Well, I knew I wouldn’t make it to PC and back in time, and by that time I was so pissed at all the STUPID drivers that I just drove to Andrew’s office and surprised him there. I think he liked the surprise and it was really good to see him, it made me happier.

From there we went to his house and talked and hung out the whole night with his sister. It was his mom’s b-day and we were waiting around for her and John to get back from supper so that we could surprise her. They finally got back around 8:30 or so, we did the surprise thing, ate so cake and then Andrew and I were off. I felt very weird being there bacuse it was all his family and then me. Very odd.

We went over to girls house and watched some movie. I was so tired by then that I don’t remember what it’s called. But I do remember that it was amusing.

After that we went home.

Saturday I got up fairly early and did a whole bunch of stuff. I don’t remember most of it. But I got a lot done.

After that I met up with Andrew after he got off work. We went out driving to do some errands. I had to go to Christian Photo to get some stuff, and after that we were on the way to his peircing place, but got side tracked by some garage sales. That was UBER fun and there were like 10 on every block! great times. After that we went to his peircer to find out what’s wrong with his eyebrow ring. He really doesn’t want to take it out, and I don’t want him to either! It’s so hot!

After that we went downtown to Sal-Val. I got some cute shirts as did Andrew. We’re both on budgets this summer, so we’ll be shopping there! We haven’t been to the mall to actually buy something in forever!

From there to beak’s. We went “swimming” at gray’s lake with her and leper boy. The water was too cold to go swimming because it really wasn’t warm enough to go. But there were tons of white trash there. We didn’t stay long cause beak was the only one swimming, although I think it would have been nice to stay a bit longer. I just wish we had the weather we had today, yesterday and the weather yeasterday today!

We left the lake and went back to Beak’s where we had the grilling fiasco. None of the grills worked, so we cooked inside. It was all still really really good! I need to hang out with Beak some more so that I can get my cooking expertise back again! After the food we hung around and talked for a while. Andrew and I left and went back to my house where we hot tubbed and spent the rest of the night just talking random talk! I drove him home and he was talking random talk and very incoherant. It was crazy!

This morning I slept in because it’s been long nights all week long and I was so tired! I got up showered and then headed over to Andrew’s. I wasn’t even in the door when Sue visiously attacked me and asked for a hug, and said that she didn’t hate me, and just really embarrassed me! It was very weird.

Met up with Girl #1 and Girl #2. Off to Adventurland we went. I had a REALLY great time there. I went on far more rides then I usually do, thanks to Drew Bear. Though I still wouldn’t go on the rollercoasters. They’re just too scary for me yet. Though I’d like to try one again some day. I did get quite annoyed a few times there with all the peer-pressure and shit to go on rides that I didn’t want too. Other then that it was a GREAT day. The Amazing Race that we did was TONS of fun and I ran around all of Adventure land barefoot because I was wearing sandles that you can’t run in. Now I have two really BIG blisters on the bottom of my feet and it hurts imensily to walk/do anything with my feet. But had a GREAt time.

After Adventure land I really wanted to go back to my house and swim, but Andrew and I decided to just stay at his and hand out, which we did. More good times, and Sue was uber nice to me! lol

Well, I’m really tired of typing so I’m done with this. I know there’s a lot that I forgot about, but I’ll put that in the private update which I’ll write laters!

Laters!

Screaming Woman

Wow, so this weekend has been uber great!

Let’s see. What all had happened though, it’s been such a great weekend it feels like it was a whole week, and not just 3 days.

Friday was great. Just hanging out with Andrew at his house and talking to his sisters, etc. Very amusing time. Though I did feel really weird about being at his house for his mom’s b-day. It wouldn’t have been that bad if Bryce had been there, but he wasn’t. It was a nice thing though and we hung around. Not much else really happened that isn’t on my public update.

Saturday was the day of really funness. After the Goodwilling/Daving we went to the top of the parking garage behind JJ’s. We went up there and just kissed and talked for a while. Then I told him about how I’ve always wanted to climb on top of this big thing on top of the garage. Well Andrew, upon hearing this, just jumped right up there. And I wanted to get up, but I was afraid of the implications of it. IE, cops, getting kicked out, etc. So I was uber scared, but I did get up there, and it was so cool. I’ve always wanted to mess around up there, or to even get up there, but Adam was always a big scaredy cat.

After we got off of there, we went over to this other place, and we were messing around. Making out, bj’s, dry humping, etc. When Andrew turned around there was this girl walking towards her car. So amusing cause we didn’t even see her. So we ran off all scared like. It was funny!

From there to Beak’s it was a good time there as well. Getting to hang out with him on the beach and just talking about completely random stuff. Get Rich Quick!

That night we went to my house and hot tubbed. Really great times. Apparently after wards though we were laying on the couch talking and I said that he could fuck me if he brought lube next time. But I don’t think that’s what I said. I believe I said, If you bring lube you can finger me. But whatever. Lol.

The ride back to his house was uber confusing, and then we sat in his drive way forever talking. I was so tired by then.

Sunday was a great day as well, though I didn’t seem to be able to find the right words for anything and thus caused a few annoyances with Andrew I think. I hope that things are alright now though.

Got back to his house though and we were laying on his bed talking about how it was only 5, and then all of sudden it was 6. I said something like, Time flys when we’re together. And it’s true, it does. That got me thinking about how fast this summer’s going and how little time we have left together, and I started to tear up. With a quick change of subject though, we just missed another cry fest. At least for me.

After that I left and I didn’t want to, I invited him to stay Tuesday night. I hope that works out.

A few other things I wanted to touch on before going. One is camp, after the experience last weekend I think that I’ll go to camp this up coming week, while Andrew’s gone. That way he doesn’t have to be drug though the annoyances that happened last week with Ginny. I really want him to come to camp sometime at least though so that he can see it, and so that we can talk about why I love the BSA so much. But I don’t want to make him go three times in one week. Plus, I’d like to go and watch the OA ceremonies some, which even if Andrew wanted to, he wouldn’t be able to go see.

I wish that I had written this last night, because now I can’t remember why I put the confused mood on here. But whatever. I’ll leave it for now. Perhaps another update sometime.

Defining Characteristics

So yesterday was a very annoying day, well mostly just the night was.

Ginny, Jenny, Jerry and Drew Bear all got here and picked me up shortly after 6ish. All was good, Jerry’s hot, I got to see Andrew, and it was a good ride there. Amusing times.

We get there and all start to walk around, Ginny talks to people who the rest of us have no idea what’s going on. It was a good time, I really enjoyed being back in a camp. Even though it wasn’t my camp, it still made me happy to be at a camp. We walked around the whole camp and Ginny showed us what’s going on, etc.

After that we went to a talent show, which was fairly amusing, though we were all confused by the crazy guy talking crazy talk. They sung a song that I knew from BSA camp. Of course it had to be one of the songs that I most hate. That song, and Singing in the Rain, and The knob song. I despise them all. It comes from having to sing them 3 times a week for the whole summer for so many many summers.

From there we went outside and played this really cool game called carpet ball? I think that’s what it was called. Gerry kicked everyone’s ass. Except for mine. lol.

After that is when the annoyance really started. I was already slightly annoyed that we were at a bible camp to begin with, but I knew where I was going, so that’s alright.

We went over to the staff cabin, and Andrew and I just sat there for like an hour and a half just watching everyone get thier faces painted. Jenny, Ginny and Jerry all helped paint. I was affraid to say anything, because I might sound to gay. Andrew and I couldn’t hold hands, because we might be too gay. It was just very annoying. And then I hear Ginny tell this boy that, “They’re gay, incase you hadn’t figured it out.” I wasn’t too annoyed with that, but I could clearly see that Andrew was. I found out later that she had told a few other people that we were a couple/gay. That annoyed me because she specifically said that we couldn’t “be gay.” She didn’t say it like that, but you know what I mean. And yet here she is telling people that we’re gay. Make up your mind, can we be ourselves, or do we have to put on these fake masks that we’ve had to wear the rest of our lives.

It was just very annoying, and as Andrew said, “That’s not a Defining Characteristic.”

From there to the mime thing, which Ginny had said started at 9:00 and would be OVER by 10. It definitally wasn’t starting at 9. It ended up starting closer to 10ish.

The whole thing was just very annoying from there on out and as the night passed I got more and more pissed off at her. She was very persistent about bringing us. And also said that it would be OVER by 10. It was finally over at 11, more jesus crap speak, more praying. I hate religion!

I was not a happy camper at all. I’ll just end it there.

Fuck Friends

Ok, so there’s a ton of stuff that I didn’t want to write about in my normal journal…

The first thing is the friends fiasco. I’ve been very annoyed with a lot of people lately. And I’ve come to the conclusion that no matter how close you think you are to your “friends”. Really all that they are is a bunch of back stabing bastards. Angel has been back in town for a while now. At least a month. She sent me a wedding invite, but I think that was just as a courtesy thing. You see, apparently it was her birthday on Monday, and she had a get together of all our “friends”. Now, I’ll give you the fact that I’m not the closest of any of them. But I think of all of them, I was closest to Angel.

Well the story goes, she made the plans, she invited people. But she NEVER called me. She called Vero and Julian for sure that I know of, and I assume that there were many more people based on the way that Vero talked. It just really pisses me off that these people that I considered to be some of my good “friends” can just blow me off like that. And based on the way that Vero talks in her journal, no one even thought of me, “yeah, yeah. she asked about you when you came up in conversation, if that makes you feel any better. (hehe.)” What the fuck!

I’m just so annoyed with these people. And then the way everyone else has been treating me lately. (And by everyone else I mean, Vero, Julian and the whole Adam situation). The fucker is just stealing my “friends”. I shouldn’t have been such a nice person when I broke up with him. I should have stated right away why I was breaking up with him, and how I felt that the relationship should have ended far earlier. And how I had no immediate plans to get with anyone else. It just really pisses me off and all I could think about last night was two things, Andrew… And how much I wanted to go fucking punch all of these so called “friends”.

I’m going to call the woman here sometime. I just have to get up the nerve to do so.

Alright, on to other things, now that I’ve got that annoyance out.

The last week has been wonderfull with Andrew. Spending so much time with him. I just wish that this routine could continue through the rest of the summer. But I know that’s not going to happen.

Wed night was a very sad night. We were standing upstairs, and I don’t remember what happened, but we were hugging and something set me off and I started crying, and he was crying. Then we went down to his room and pretty much just cried the rest of the night. We held each other, and cried, we kissed. It was so sad.

At one time, he asked me. “What’s going to happen to us.” I’ve been wondering the same thing, and all I could think of, was “I don’t know.” Because I don’t. I’d like to think that a long distance relationship would work, but they never seem to actually work. Maybe one of only 9 months would. But you never know. It’s so sad. I guess this is something that we’re going to have to talk about sooner or later. I’d rather later then sooner though.

I’d hate to see us at the airport. Someone’s going to have to carry me off to my flight.

2 More.

Well, the last couple days have been pretty damn busy.

Tuesday I had class, nothing really went on there. The class itself is going to teach me a lot I think. But the professor is pretty boring. Not his fault, he does try and make it interesting. But it’s just not one of those classes that can be interesting. Today was very hard because I was so tired from Wed. But I think I should do pretty good in the class overall. It’s mostly logical stuff.

After class I went to work. I had a TON of stuff to do that day and got most of it done. I have decided that Eudora is a poorly coded piece of crap. It caused many headaches that day.

To relieve the stress, and get a break from Eudora, I called Andrew while he was on his lunch break. We talked for a bit and it was nice. He asked me if I was coming down for the night, and I told him that I’d think about it.

The rest of the day at work was very busy. And I kept debating with myself as to if I wanted to miss class or not. I decided that it was worth one day, and since it’s so early in the year it wouldn’t matter really. So at 4:45 I rode my bike home, quickly threw some stuff into a backpack and then headed off to Andrew’s house. I met up with him at 5:40 or so.

We spent the rest of the night playing around with his computer. I showed him Opera, which is fun and fixed a few other things for him. After that we went to Family Video (2 DVD’s for $1.30, how can you pass that up!) and got The Matrix and Frita. Andrew let me watch The Matrix first, which was nice of him because I know he doesn’t like the movie. I throughtly enjoyed it though can can’t wait to go see Reloaded. After the movie, it was late, so we went to bed.

Wed moring we got up and I showered. After that we hung around the house for a couple hours. We made biscuits which is fun because they’re so GOOD! In fact, I want some more right now! And it was so cute cause we made them together. Why are we such a cute couple, I just don’t know. 😛 Anyways, after we made biscuits we watched Jerry Springer, such a crazy show. I won’t get into it!

After that he had to leave to go to a work function, so I just sat around his house playing video games and doing other random stuff. He got back about 1ish and we called Jenny (who didn’t answer her phones!!!) And Ginny (who did answer). Ginny came over about 2 and we went out Goodwilling. That was alright, but there wasn’t ANYTHING cute. So we went to teh DAV on E. University. Andrew found a cute yellow shirt, but gave it to me and then I bought a muffin tin, so now I can make my muffins! Good times.

We broke about 4ish cause Andrew and I had to meet my mom. We drove downtown to her office, which is way cool. And worked on flight info and also found a hotel for the trip to MCI. We’re going to be gone for 2 nights, and it’ll only cost us $30 each for the hotel. So I’m hoping to keep the costs to below $100 for this trip. Maybe $150. We’ve also decided that we are NOT going to eat out unless we have to! In other words, we should make a trip to Sams Club sometime. lol.

We got done with that about 6ish and then went out to supper with my mom. That was uber good. We went to a place called Centro (pronounced Chen’-tro). They had REALLY great Italian food. I don’t remember what it was that I got, but it was so good. Andrew said that his was really good too! We also got a peice of chocolate cake, it was wonderfull! Andrew and I are going to go back and get a pizza or something some time. They were only like $12 for a large one and they looked so good! Our meal was a bit more then that… Good thing my mom paid! (Thanks MOM!)

After that we broke and Andrew and I drove back to his house. We spent the night laying in his bed talking about him moving to Cali. It was very sad and we were both crying for most of it. He’s scared about moving out there, and I feel so helpless. All I can do is tell him that everything’s going to be fine, and to hold him. But I just know that he’ll do fine out there, he’s a strong guy, and he’ll have tons of great new friends!

It’s very sad to think about because 2 months from today, he’ll be moving into his dorm room. And after that it’ll be 4 months before we get to see each other again. These last 4 months seem to have just flown by, but I’m sure that those 4 months will just crawl.

I left about 10:30 and drove home. I was so annoyed though by the time I got there because once I got onto I-35 north, I got RIGHT behind a state trooper going exactly 55 in the construction zone (With a speed limit of 55) and then once it went back up to 65 he went exactly 65. I had to follow him all the way from the east mix-master to AMES! I was SO pissed at him. Fucking stupid cops.

I got home, threw my stuff down and went to check websites/etc.

I ended up going to bed that night, alternating between crying, and being ferious.

And, after much debate on my part last night, I think it’s time…
