Talking to people doesn’t help things, it just makes them worse. Especially
when they contradict themselves.

Aug 10 [Seven Mary Three, "Cumbersome"]
Sometimes things just all come down on me at once, and I’m in a pissy mood
when I’m actually really enjoying myself. Tonight was a great point of that.
It started out very nicely. Xak and I went downtown to meet Adam and Angie.
We hung out there for a while and talked about things. Adam apparently thought
that I was in a pissy mood there cause I guess I gave him a death stare
or something. I was just really frustrated cause everyone was pushing me
on wether or not I’m going to smoke tomorrow night or not. I don’t know
yet if I want to or not. And it just annoyed me that everyone wanted a definite
"yes" or "no" and at this point I’m just not ready to
commit to something like that. I want to try it, but at the same time I
don’t really want to cause I don’t know what the effects are going to be.
It was also a generally bad night cause well tomorrow everyone is going
to the mall, and I can’t cause I had to work. I felt really left out about
that, and that pissed me off that I couldn’t go. I also have like this feeling
that people are taking over my spot in the group. I’ve become kinda possesive
about things. I realy don’t like it, but I have and I’m trying to not let
it bother me, but I feel as though some people are spending more time with
my friends then I am. And that bothers me. I haven’t had much time lately
to just hang out, even though I have been "just hanging out" alot,
there’s alot of people that I don’t get to see that often and other people
seem to know alot more about what’s going on then I do. That kinda bothers
me.
Then also tonight Adam wanted to tell Xak the same story that we told Mandy
last night. He finds it to be more of a joke then anything. Last night I
discussed it with him cause I felt it was something we needed to discuss
and Mandy just happened to be there. Which turned out to be a good things
cause she helped the conversation along, and kept things on track. But Adam’s
taking it more like a joke, and that really really really bothers me. To
me it’s something that’s _VERY_ personal. Something that no one else should
have known about, but now there’s like three or my friends know details
and I don’t know how many of his friends he’s told. That bothers me as well.
We keep saying, "Yeah we need to talk" and there always seems
to be something that we need to talk about. Things aren’t going to get better
until we get everything out on the table and we both know the other persons
views on every subject. But I find it hard to talk to him when he’s always
making things into jokes and when he keeps going off on tangents. But that’s
the way it is. I guess it’s a good thing that we broke it off when we did.
Maybe it never should have happened. My life just sucks right now.
This morning I was awaken at 6, but I couldn’t get back to sleep cause
I was just laying there thinking about our whole relationship. From day
one to what’s happening with us today. I layed there in bed thinking about
it tell about 11 when I finaly decided that I neede to get out of bed before
I completely over anylised things. But I think that our relationship was
totaly physical and we never had that emotional bond. I want a relationship
with that emotional bond. But I enjoyed the relationship that Adam and I
had. We were in a sense, "Friends with benifits" and that doesn’t
really bother me. Cause I enjoyed what happened while it lasted. And looking
back we never relaly shared all that much. We were never really able to
open up and tell each other everylittle thing that was going on in our heads.
We pretended to have that emotional bond, but it was never there.
There’s so much more in my head right now that I can’t get out in writting.
Tonight I was pissed, I wasn’t pissed at anyone thing or anyone person
or anyone action. I was just pissed in general at alot of little things.
I was pissed cause alot of things in my life weren’t adding up to where
they should be. 1 + 1 = 50 tonight. And it doesn’t work that way, 1 + 1
should be 2.
Aug 9, [Guns N’ Roses, "Used To Love Her"]
OMG, tonight’s been really great. There’s just so much that I want to talk
about. Ok well I’ll start at the beging. I left here about 6:30 or so cause
I had to go to my bank before it closed, so I went over to Hy-Vee and did
my banking shit and stuff and then went over and returned Adam’s phone to
him, cause he left it here. Then I had to go to Wal-Mart to get something.
But when I got there I couldn’t remember what it was, so I decided to go
see if Julian was working, which he was, so that was cool. We talked for
a bit, but I didn’t really get a chance to talk to him to much cause he
was pretty busy. I left there about 7:30 or so cause I had to meet Angie
and Adam at Hy-Vee at 8. On my way out I walked past the Pharmacy area and
I remembered what I had to get. So I got it, and went back to Hy-Vee. I
hung around there while they closed and we were also waiting for Vero and
Mandy to get there. Once they got there, Adam and I went back to his house
so he could change, and while we were waiting for the rest of the group
to get there we chatted a bit about things. It was nice to have some time
with him even though we didn’t talk about things involving us.
Once everyone showed up at Adam’s we all went to the Chat Noir. I’d never
been there so I was really excited about going there. WE had a great time
there and we all just hung out and talked about random things. Really good
times there. After we were done there we headed back to Ankeny cause Angie
had to be home. We dropped her off there and Vero wanted to go home to,
so she took us back to Adam’s where my car was.
After she left Adam, Mandy, and I went to the park there in the court thing.
And we just talked about anything and everything. It was really good to
talk to Adam about us and our relationship having Mandy there cause she
acted as kinda a moderator and helped out with the conversation. It was
good to have her there. We even talked about what happened that Saturday,
and Mandy got details. lol. That was funny as hell. But I was giving alot
of details about what happened and from my perspective of things, but Adams
wasn’t giving to much information about his perspective of things, and that’s
what I was wanting, I wanted to know what he was thinking during what happened.
Overall though it was realy good converstaion and I’m glad that we had it.
Adam said tonight that he wouldn’t mind having a "Freind with benifits."
That kinda sparked my ears, cause I’d enjoy that. Not like alot of benifits,
but being able to still cuddle with him and that kinda stuff. I know that
"Friend with benifits" will probably never be me. But I liked
knowing that he’d like having one. lol.
There’s still alot we need to talk about, but things are getting better,
and he knows alot more about how I feel now. I think things really will
get better.
There’s so much more that I want to say, but I just can’t get it into workds
right now. It’s really annoying when that happens.
Aug 8, [Alanis Morissette, "Not The Doctor"]
Adam came over this morning and we worked on his website. It’s starting
to get places, but there’s still alot to be done with it. I’m going to have
to spend some major time teaching him how to us dreamweaver. It should be
good times. I realized today why I like him so much. I’m not going to go
into it here because that’s not really information I want to devulge to
the entire world, but I really do like him. I wish so much now that I wouldn’t
have let things go as far as they did that day. I really do. I think that
we’d still be together had that not happened, and that things in life would
be so much better.
My dad’s still not home, which is a good thing, but last night my mom was
talking to me, and she keeps coming up with things that I have to pay for
while I’m in college, yet she neglets to remember that I’m only going to
be able to work part time, and that most of that money will be going towards
things that I’m going to have to pay for now. Much like, my car. We went
to Ames and looked at an apartment last night, it’s on 15th St. Which the
guy that lives there says is only about a mile from campus, A mile my ass.
But it looks like a pretty nice place and it’s on the Cyride route. The
rent is pretty cheap, but still. There’s no way I’d be able to afford it.
I talked to Bruce Bennett last night about jobs in the computer related
fields up in Ames, he said that Krell would be a good place, and that’s
the only place that he mentioned, but I’m not really sure if I want to work
there or not. I’ve heard some bad things about working for them. And now
that they’re spacing themselves from AiS I don’t really know what they do
there. But what ever. It does seem like it’d be a good opertunity to work
in the computer field for somethings.
Things in my life just haven’t been going my way lately. I should have
just gone to UNLy like originally planned, I should have just worked at
camp all summer, like I was going to, I should have just left things be
in my life, but I had to meet someone, and I had to quit camp and I had
to change my mind about going to UNL or even Penn State. My life has been
so shaken up this summer that things aren’t going where I want them too.
Adam left his cell phone here. That could be amusing to see who all calls
him. But since I’m a nice guy, I just called him and told him that it was
here. I’ll shut it off and take it over to Angie’s tonight when I go over
there, well that is, if she remembers to call me like she said she would.
I got my story posted on Nifty. If you can find it you can go read it.
Like I said before though, I didn’t like the way it turned out, but Adam
said that it did the job. So we’ll see what other people say now that it’s
posted.
Adam (yet again his name appears, I’m going to have to stop that) said
that my website was boring, I like the boring colours, but I have been trying
to come up with a good colour scheme lately. I can’t really find colours
that work together that I like. I really like this blue that I’ve got going
now, but I need to find another colour for the background, white is boring.
My horoscope for today describes the kinda mood I’m in quite well: Everywhere
you look, things seem to be exactly the same as they were yesterday. You’ve
had it with the same old people and places, haven’t you, Aquarius? The Aries
Moon fills you with a voracious appetite for change. When you really think
about it, you’ll realize that it’s not as though you always have to stay
in the same place, doing the same thing. Lead a merry crew on a wild goose
chase. It’s all in the name of fun, especially when no one goes home the
loser.
Alright, so after 28 days, 16 hours and 2 minutes of uptime for my computer,
the Copy and Paste stopped working, forcing a restart, cause you can’t live
without Copy and Paste.
Aug 7 #2, [Bob Seger, "We’ve Got Tonight"]
There’s alot of hot guys in Ames. I mean _alot_ of _really_ hot guys up
there. I’m going to like that aspect of things. lol. My mom and I just drove
up there to look at an apartment. I really hate driving with her in the
car, everytime I come within 500 feet of another vehicle she’s like, "Back
off, you don’t need to be that close" and blah blah blah. Another thing
is that she’s constantly telling me to "Slow down" I was doing
60 in a 55, and she said, "You don’t need to be going 60." And
everytime the person infront of us puts thier brakes on, she goes "AHHH,
SLOW DOWN" and I mean she fucking screams. It’s like calm the fuck
down woman, Jesus.
Today I went to the GLRC with Angie and Xak. That Alijah (sp) guy was there,
he’s pretty cute. We played this one game too, it was amusing as hell. On
the way back Angie was doing like 80 all the way cause she didn’t want to
be late for work. She was late anyhow, but whatever. It works. lol.
Why can no one ever do what they say they’re going to do. I’ve made so
many plans some times, and people either, A) Don’t call like they said they
would, or B) Call and say that they can’t do what ever it was, and they
call at the last minute. It’s like, you knew for a while that you wouldn’t
be able to do it, sometimes they even know when they set things up that
they wouldn’t be able to do whatever it was, so then why do they set it
up? I really hate people that say they’ll call and then don’t though, cause
that just gets on my nerves. If they say that they’re going to call, then
they should call, even if it’s to say that they can’t make it to whatever
we had planned, it’d just be the nice thing to do, rather then letting the
person sit around waiting for them to call like they said they would. Grrr.
Sometimes people just realy annoy me.
I finished that erotic story that I started yesterday. I’ve had a couple
people read it and they said it was pretty good. I don’t really like the
way that it turned out cause I couldn’t think of a good opening. And towards
the end I just got bored, so I flew though the ending of it. But there’s
som egood things in it. I submitted it to Nifty, so we’ll see if it get’s
put up. I should know in about a week or so.
My dad bitched at me today about not getting my car fixed. He was complaining
cause I didn’t know what I was going to do with it. I mean, I don’t have
the money to do anything with it right now, and yet they won’t help me out
with it. They won’t help me pay for it, or help me find somewhere that can
help me fix it, they won’t even cosign a loan, so how the hell am I going
to get one if that’s what it comes to? But back to the bitching, he was
bitching cause he just paid insurance on it and bitched that if I wasn’t
going to fix it that he’d cancel the insurance, and I said that if i had
the money to fix it, I’d fix it, but I don’t and then he just went off on
a tangent about that and yeah, that went on for a while. Grrr.
I was hoping to be able to go to Adam’s tonight to help him out with his
website. Mostly cause I want to help him out, but also because I want some
personal time to talk with him. I called him about 8:45 or so, but no one
answered the phone there. I’m not really wanting to call his cell phone
though, cause I feel bad about using his minutes
For some reason in my life right now I feel kinda left out, I know I’m
not being left out, but I feel as though I am sometimes. Even if I am with
people, I feel as though I’m being left out of what’s going on with them,
there at that time. Sometimes though I really do feel as though I’m left
out of things. People will say, "Oh remember the other day when it
was me and X and Y and Z." And I’m like no, I wasn’t there. Why didn’t
you call me if you were all going out. I think this all should go back up
with the people not calling or doing stuff like they say they would.
What’s up with me and these long updates lately? It’s just been kinda random
thoughts and such. I want to go out tonight, but I don’t really want to
call anyone. I know that most people are already out doing stuff for the
night and I most likely won’t find anyone around. Oh well. Maybe I’ll just
go to Java Joes or something tonight. I also have that book that I could
read. But I’m not in the mood to read it right now. We’ll see what happens.
I’m temped to just head up to camp and see what’s going on up there, but
I bet that everyone I’d want to talk to will be gone.
Grrr. Bad times in my head.
