(18:29:23) Me: Yes
(18:29:32) Andrew: oh i didnt realzie
(18:29:42) Me: You did too, we’ve talked about it before.
(18:29:53) Me: And why are you being so snide, or whatever.
(18:29:54) Andrew: im clearly joking through all of this
(18:30:29) Me: Yeah, but you’re still teasing me.
(18:30:51) Andrew: k im done
(18:30:59) Me: What is wrong with you?
(18:31:28) Andrew: nothings wrong with me, thanks
(18:31:46) Me: I think that something is.
(18:32:19) Andrew: im having a bad day, like i told you
(18:32:27) Me: So why are you taking it out on me?
(18:32:38) Me: Why don’t you talk to me about it more, like I asked you to do?
(18:33:15) Andrew: i already told you abou tit
(18:33:21) Andrew: and then getting into a fight with you didnt really make the day better
(18:34:01) Me: Well I’m sorry we got into a fight because I can’t afford to go over my minutes, which you know that I can’t do, and I tell you everytime we talk during the day.
(18:34:23) Andrew: it has ntohing to do with that b/c i understand that and you know it b/c i have the same issue
(18:34:28) Andrew: its how mean you were about it
(18:34:34) Andrew: and im not even mad about that anymore
(18:34:46) Me: Then why are you being so mean to me right now?!?
(18:34:54) Andrew: IM NOT
(18:34:56) Andrew: how am i being mean?
(18:35:41) Me: Andrew: nothings wrong with me, thanks
Andrew: k im done
(18:35:42) Me: etc.
(18:36:08) Andrew: you were geting all upset with me
(18:36:17) Me: I was not, you were being upset with me!
(18:36:20) Andrew: and asking me “whats wrong with you?” isnt the most endearing way to find out if somethings wrong
(18:36:28) Andrew: no you were getting all annoyed about me teasing you when iw as just joking
(18:37:02) Me: Well you know what, I asked you once before in this conversation what’s wrong, and you said nothing. And obviosuly something WAS wrong, what else did you want me to say to ask?
(18:37:36) Andrew: but nothing is wrong
(18:37:45) Me: YEs something IS wrong, you’re mad at me.
(18:38:02) Andrew: im not mad at you but im getting frustrated
(18:38:12) Me: Well then WHY DON’T YOU TALK TO ME ABOUT IT.
(18:38:20) Andrew: im getting annoyed with this right now
(18:38:24) Andrew: what we are arguing over
(18:38:34) Andrew: and im annoyed that you snapped at me earlier and annoyed that you siad “whast wrong with you”
(18:38:41) Andrew: happy?
(18:39:47) Me: No, I’m not happy. Look I’m sorry that I was so rude to you earlier, but you KNOW that I can’t talk forever during the day, and you call me all the time and talk and talk about things that could be talked about later at night. I’d love to be able to talk to you about all that stuff, but when you said “can I call you for a minute” I thought you meant for a minute.
(18:40:02) Me: And what else do you want me to ask you when you’re obviously being annoyed about something and not telling me when I ask?
(18:40:18) Me: You’re getting MAD at me over things that you SHOULDN’T be getting mad at me about.
(18:40:46) Me: I’m sorry that you had a bad day, and I’d love to be able to talk to you for hours about it, but I just can’t
(18:40:50) Andrew: well you dont need to phrase it as “whats wrong with you” its so derogatory
(18:40:57) Andrew: why couldnt you say ‘is something wrong are you ok’
(18:41:00) Andrew: not whats wrong with youi
(18:41:01) Me: Well I ASKED YOU ONCE, AND YOU DIDN”T TELL ME.
(18:41:05) Andrew: that just pisses me off
(18:41:08) Andrew: when did you ask me??????
(18:41:25) Me: (18:04:47) Me: Alright. So why are you still mad?
18:05
(18:05:19) Andrew: imnot!
(18:05:27) Me: then why are you being so short?
(18:41:39) Andrew: but i wasnt mad
(18:41:43) Andrew: you didnt even have any right to ask me that
(18:41:52) Me: YES I DID!
(18:42:05) Me: What the can I do to make you happy? NOthing?
(18:42:37) Andrew: you can be a little more sensitive towards my feelings
(18:42:44) Andrew: when you say things like whats wrong with you it doesnt really sound like you care
(18:43:01) Me: Well you know what, when you don’t talk to me.
(18:43:12) Me: And I asked you once what was wrong, you didn’t talk to me.
(18:43:12) Andrew: I WAS TALKING TO YOU
(18:43:16) Me: You were not.
(18:43:31) Andrew: you didnt ask what was wrong you said are you still mad
(18:43:34) Andrew: and i responded with no
(18:43:35) Andrew: that i wasnt
(18:43:42) Andrew: and you still thought something was wrong b/c you dont believe me
(18:43:44) Me: Well you could have told me what WAS WRONG THEN!
(18:43:59) Me: Do I have to DRAG everything out of you?
(18:44:15) Me: Why can’t you openly talk to me and say.. “Hey, I’m just a little annoyed aabout thing, and I’ve had a bad day”
(18:44:28) Andrew: b/c i wasnt fucking annoyed
(18:44:35) Andrew: after you txt me back i was fine with everything
(18:44:49) Andrew: i wasnt mad at you anymore i was still having a bad day but nothing involving you
(18:44:59) Andrew: then i get here and you just accuse me of being mad and having something wrong with me
(18:45:14) Me: I did not accuse you of being mad, I asked if you were still mad.
(18:45:23) Andrew: and i said no
(18:45:27) Andrew: and then you couldnt let it go
(18:45:28) Me: And when you’re being SHORT with me what else am I to take away from that?
(18:45:50) Andrew: i wasnt even being short
(18:45:56) Me: YOU WERE TOO!
(18:46:16) Andrew: ok whatever you say
(18:46:22) Andrew: this is a reallys tupid argument
(18:46:24) Me: Fuck it. I’m done arguing with you.
(18:46:33) Andrew: oh ok fuck it’
(18:46:34) Me: Obviously nothing I can do will make anything any better.
(18:46:34) Andrew: good
(18:46:36) Andrew: im going to class
(18:46:38) Me: Just go to class.
(18:46:39) Me: Bye
(18:47:10) Andrew: dont tell me what to do
(18:47:11) Andrew: bye
(18:47:14) Me: GOOD BYE
(18:47:31) Andrew has gone away.
(18:47:37) Andrew is no longer away.
(18:47:41) Andrew: you are mean
(18:47:42) Andrew: bye
(18:47:44) Me: Bye
(18:47:47) Me: You’re the one being mean.
(18:47:50) Andrew: no im not
(18:47:51) Me: I’m just trying to fucking talk to you
(18:47:53) Andrew: youre the one accusing me
(18:47:57) Me: Nothing I can do will make you think that.
(18:48:03) Andrew: i said that i wasnt mad
(18:48:05) Andrew: and you wouldnt drop it
(18:48:07) Andrew: so how am i mean?
(18:48:08) Me: I’m not ACCUSING YOU OF ANYTHING.
(18:48:14) Andrew: ok fine
(18:48:16) Me: Bye
(18:48:23) Andrew: there it is
(18:48:24) Andrew: mean
(18:48:25) Andrew: bye

(18:48:51) Andrew: fine
(18:48:51) Me: I was just trying to talk to you
(18:48:54) Me: and find out what was wrong.
(18:48:59) Andrew: and i told you nothing
(18:48:59) Me: You weren’t talking to me.
(18:49:01) Andrew: and you didnt believe me
(18:49:06) Andrew: and now youre just being nasty
(18:49:10) Me: BUT OBVIOSLY SOMETHING WAS WRONG
(18:49:17) Me: You’re being nasty to me too
(18:49:17) Me: thanks.
(18:49:25) Andrew: but nothing was wrong and you couldnt belive me when i said it
(18:49:25) Andrew: you never believe me
(18:49:29) Andrew: and i dont have time to argue about it
(18:49:42) Me: I did believe you. but you STILL didn’t act like nothing was wrong.
(18:49:47) Me: So how can I believe that.
(18:49:58) Andrew: i dont see how i was ating like anything was wrong
(18:50:14) Me: Because you were being short and snide to me.
(18:50:24) Andrew: most of what you considered snide, i was just joking
(18:50:30) Andrew: nothing was snide at all
(18:50:39) Me: Well it didn’t come accross that way.
(18:50:41) Andrew: youre being a little sensitive

(18:51:16) Andrew: i guess im just overly sensitive
(18:51:20) Me: Yeah, you are.
(18:51:24) Me: Look at yourself.
(18:51:30) Me: Everything I say, you get mad at me about.
(18:51:32) Andrew: what the FUCK is that supposed to mean?
(18:51:36) Andrew: i dont even want to talk to you right now
(18:51:37) Andrew: goodybe

(18:53:11) Andrew is no longer away.
(18:53:16) Me: I just wish you could talk to me when I try talking to you, and not get mad at me.
(18:53:24) Andrew has gone away.
(18:53:34) Me: Fine, you can call me.
(18:53:35) Andrew : worst. day. ever.
(18:53:37) Me: good bye
(19:03:26) Andrew has become idle.

The whole thing started because I asked him. “What’s wrong with you.” because I simply wanted to know why he was so obviously upset about something.

You know, I honestly don’t think I did ANYTHING wrong here. But apparently I did.

I’m sorry for whatever it was.

Back In Iowa

Well here I am back in Iowa. And boy am I glad to be home and talking to my Drew Bear again.

Today has been really long. We got up about 3:45am and were out of the hotel by 4:30. In the airport by 5:00 and on the plane at 7:30. Before we were even wheels up, I was sound alseep, and slept tell the initial decent into Houston, at which point I just fucking wanted to be on the ground to talk to Drew bear. I couldn’t wait any longer!!!

I got on the ground in Houston, called him and left a message. Then started listening to all his messages. I also have a call back for a job to do on Monday.

We talked for about 2 hours in the airport, and then talked for another 2 hours tonight. We just got off the phone. I’m supposed to be unpacking right now, but I wanted to update here.

I find it funny that they had 16 inches of snow here.

Here’s a temp difference

Mexico!

Hey everone. Here I am in Mexico. We’re all having a GREAT time. Though I can’t wait to get back to Iowa and to be able to talk to my Drew Bear.

You all are going to have so much to read once you get back. I’ve been doing updates daily!

This place is so pretty and so exciting. Tonight we’re going to go out to a show in the square.

I’m pretty burnt and have peeled a couple times already, but it’s starting to fade into a nice dark tan. 🙂

Well I have to go everyone. I hope all you Iowans are enjoying the SNOW! I laugh in your faces, because it’s been 95+ all week, and so clear and beautiful!

Laters all

Public Transport

Ok, I’m back, it’s a few hours later. I guess I’ll go ahead and start off at what we did this morning. Obviously we did the normal breakfast thing, and then went off to our first stop, which were some really cool ruins, I mean, like these were just amazing to see these old old temples and stuff all around the place.

The first one we couldn’t climb, but we went back in farther and they just kept getting cooler and cooler. Finally we got all the way back to the last one and it was absolutely HUGE, a bunch of us climbed it, it was probably like a couple hundred feet tall. And the view from the top was the most amazing thing I’ve seen in a long time. The only other place that I’ve seen such a great view was from the top of the Tooth of Time in Philmont. I took a great panoramic picture from up there, I just wish that I could do the panoramic thing now so that I can see how it all turns out.

The steps though were so steep and coming back down I though i was going to fall and die. lol. But we all made it down safe and sound. After that we went back to the front and I bought three shirts for $100 pesos. I hope that the people I got them for like them. After I got home I noticed that one of them wasn’t the one that I wanted, but it’s still cute I think. I really like the one I got for my dad, and I want to keep it for myself. But I’ll have to give it to him.

Umm, after that we went to these other ruins which were really neat. Not as cool as the first ones, but still really cool. The steps there were like 10 times more steep though.

It was ungodly hot out everyone, and my arms finally are starting to get some sun, which is nice.

Umm, there’s really not to much to say about the ruins, except that they were ruins and really cool. I wished that Andrew could have been there because they were some cool fucking ruins, and he would have really enjoyed the history behind them and stuff, at least I think that he would have. I took a shit load of pictures for him to see. So far it’s over 800 pics total for my camera since I bought it and almost 200 just for this trip alone. I can’t wait to see what the rest of the week brings.

After we got back from the ruins we went swimming, at least a small group of us did. It was really cold in the pool though so we didn’t stay long. Once we were all done hanging out there I went and showered and then wrote that previous entry.

Since then I’ve been a bit sad. I went out front to just sit and ran into a couple people, and asked what they were doing. one of them was going to an internet cafe, so I told her that I wanted to go do that too. But we had a few other things to do real quick like first. Well those things took a bit longer, so by the time I got to the internet cafe I just had enough time to leave him a quick message on his journal. Though Sulie (sp?) who was with me needed to use the computer and after I was done, I just sat there and cried a little, because just seeing his journal again, and reading about what he’s been doing, even though his updating has sucked since I’ve been gone, just made me miss him a lot more.

After that I came back and listened to a little bit of the cranberries before I had to run to this thing, and write my journal entry for the night. I don’t really have much more to say about the whole trip, but eh. whatever.

I don’t really feel like I fit into any of the groups of people. I mean, we have Aaron and Liz, but they’re together, so I always just feel like the third wheel. then there’s Omar, Tyron, and Joe, and they’re always going off, but I never seem to really get invited to come with them, so yeah. Then there’s Tim, who’s a major outcast and I can’t stand, so I don’t really talk to him.

Then there’s all the girls, which I’m getting along with. We’ve all made plans to go to the Redlight sometime after we get back, I think that will be fun. But at the same time I just don’t really feel like I fit in completely there either. It always seems like they’re going out and doing stuff while I just sit in my room. Oh well, I mean it’s only a week and we all can’t spend every minute of every day with each other, other wise they’d just annoy me even more then they already do.

I also really wish that I could blab more about Andrew, like I bring him up every once in a while, it seems as though all the girls are getting married, or have lt’s, but then once I bring up Andrew they all seem to get uncomfortable. Which is a little annoying, I mean I can understand some of it, but they all seem semi ok, and semi not ok. Who knows really.

But I do really miss drew bear and i want to move there so badly in June. I can’t wait to see him in April, and I really want to just spend the whole layover in Houston talking to him. That’d be really nice.

Tomorrow we’re going to villages, which I’m understanding are like a 2-3 hour bus ride out to them. Now that seems hellish, and it IS hellish mostly because we’re taking PUBLIC transportation, AND it’s not air conditioned. I have NO idea what we are going to do out in these villages all day, but I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what happens in the whole thing.

Oh, I forgot to mention. We found out the other day that they have 11 inches of snow in Iowa today. How sucky is that! I’m so glad that I’m in Mexico…(I just wrote Cali, deleted it, wrote it again… How messed up am I).

Well, laters all.

City Tour

Well here we are, the day is winding down to an end. It’s been a really long day today so far. I we’ve really done a lot of stuff. After the last update we headed out to a tour of the city. It was very interesting because of everything thing that we saw around the place. The city was really poor looking, even the “high” class areas that we went through in the city.

We did go through a few really high class areas apparently, but you really couldn’t tell. Like even though they were supposed to be the more wealthy areas of the city, they weren’t anything like the high class suburbs of america. The low class areas of the city though really were LOW class. I mean the poverty level is amazing, and how poor these people seemed.

During the tour we stopped at a few places and saw an iguana or two. The first place we stopped was this REALLY cool monument to like the founder of the city or something. I don’t remember exactly. But it was really neat and the carvings were amazingly awesome. Drew bear would have really like it. And if it weren’t right in the middle of a round-about it would be a really great place to get married, and have that in the background.

Another thing I really noticed about the city is that it’s very colorful and there’s ALWAYS live music somewhere around. It seems as though the people around here are happier, and also in some ways sadder. But there are lots of couples around, and many older people and the city is just so alive. I’m excited to find out if the rest of the week the city is as lively as it was this weekend. Or if it’s all just because of the weekend festivities.

After we left the monument we drove around some more and then went to this garden thing. Which again was really cool. For some reason while there I kept thinking about Adam, probably because of the HUNDREDS of ficus plants all over the place. I just kept thinking about how he’s be talking about what he’d do with each and every one of them. Including the ones they had carved into swans and baskets and the like.

In the gardens there were a couple more places that I think would be a great place to get married. The band shell for one, because along the sides it’s got this really pretty overhang of flowers and and the audience sits down in this pit type thing. It’d be very pretty. Another spot was the gardens around here. I really wanted Andrew to be here, because it would have been nice to just sit with him in those gardens and talk. Like we did at the museum in Santa Ana this past weekend. The third place was this really beautiful waterfall. It was absolutely amazing.

I know I’ve got all these places at that I want to get married. But I’ll probably end up getting married in some stupid place. LIke a church or something. Who knows. Even though there’s now FOUR places that I’d like to get married, I don’t think my family would be able to come to any of them. So I’ll probably have to get married in Iowa. If that ever happens!! Hopefully bush and his cronies won’t be able to stop it.

The whole area is just really pretty, even though it is more ghetto then NYC, and dirtier. But it’s not dirty in a bad way like I thought that NYC was. It’s I just don’t know how to describe it… So lively, so happy, so colorful.

From there we went to this art type museum, it was paintings of the history of the area. And there was this HUGE mural, which was depicting the EXACT same thing that the one at Chapman was that I just saw last weekend. I thought that was a strange coincidence. Anyways, again the paintings were all so pretty and I again wished that Andrew had been there to share it with me. We’re definitely going to have to come back. Maybe before the the China tour in 2013 and before his cruise in 2010… I’m thinking 2008, that should be plenty of time for us to save up the money for it.

After we got back from the tour a bunch of us went off into the market place, which is like RIGHT outside of our hotel. The whole thing was such a great experience. The life, and the color and the sound and just everything else.

I ended up buying 4 rings for $300. They were really cheap and I got them down from $450. And I think they’re really cool. I’m going to try and find Andrew something, but there’s SO MANY different things that I really think he’d like. It’s just hard trying to pick one thing.

About 1ish we got back to the hotel and changed and went and laid by the pool. A whole group of us. I’m pretty sure almost everyone knows that I’m gay now, Liz asked me, ‘What’s you’re friends name.” lol. And we talked a bit about my moving out there and stuff. Then just about an hour ago, Omar and I were talking and he brought up the whole Gay Marriage thing. Strange, eh. Oh well.

We all lounged around the pool tell about 2ish then came down to lunch. Which was REALLY great. It was this chicken breast wrapped in banana leaves and it had some really great tasting spices and stuff on it. I was amazed at how good it was. I can’t wait to see what dinner will bring us.

After dinner we all went out shopping again, but didn’t stay to long. I was back by the pool side with, Aaron, Liz, Omar, and one other person. I can’t remember who else was there right now though. We all lounged around talking, and Aaron splashed me, so I cannonball into the pool. it was funny shit.

I spent most of the rest of the afternoon up there hanging out and tanning. Hopefully I’ll have a really nice tan by the time I get back to Orange to see Drew. about 5:30 I left the pool side, but didn’t make it far before getting caught up in the beauty of the bright blue sky and the hotel’s inner court yard. I sat there on the ledge of the third story, looking out over the court yard, and the surrounding cathedrals thinking about how great a boy he is, and how much I want to be with him. For a long time. I can’t wait to get back to Orange to see him again. And hopefully work out a way that I CAN move there in June. Because the more I think about it, the more I want to do it.

I don’t yet know what the night holds for us. I really want to go out with everyone, but not for too late. Tomorrow’s going to be a long day. I think that everyone wants to go out to a bar again, but we’ll have to see about that.

Well, I think that’s about all for today. I know there’s some things that I’m forgetting, but I can’t think of them right now. Maybe I’ll write about them tomorrow.

Night all. And I love you Drew Bear, I hope you’re sleeping tight and having a good time, wherever you are. ::hugs::
