Tonight I guess was fairly interesting. Skinny and I went to Allysons and then the 3 of us went to Hairy Mary’s, to a punk rock show. It was the first I’d ever been too. It was interesting, the music was cool, and some big fat drunk men were definitely flying into me. That was a bit unsettling, but I had fun. I did not enjoy the fact that it probably reached 10000 degrees in the place. I thought I would collapse. Then we went to Fazoli’s and creepy man was weird. “Do you know the score to the Iowa game?” “No.” “Do you know the score to the Iowa State game?” “No.” “Is your car the white one with its lights on?” “NO, what is this 20 questions?!?!” Yeah that happened, it was really funny.
Anyways, we ended up going downtown (imagine that) and we met up with Brian Niblo and Alex and Brian’s friend Sree. Yeah Jeremiah was there too. I was like eww gross, but oh well. I was Mr. Quotes tonight. I honestly couldn’t think of anything funny to say on my own, so I just quoted random shit all night. Everyone found it funny, so that’s what counts. I made people laugh. yay.
On the way home, Skinny and I talked about how guys here suck. Everyone is either slutty, and if not that, then they have some sort of problem with them *ahem*alocholism compulisive lying*ahem* Not that I know anyone like that.. lol
But it just kinda sucks. I honestly do not think I will date until I go to college, or at least until the summer when David comes back. I miss David. The more I see and meet more gay people here, and the more I realize how people really are, and the more I see the reality of some shit that goes on, the more I realize that David is my soul mate. I just can’t imagine being with anyone else, or wanting to be with anyone else. Seeing how everyone is slutty, or problematic, or whatever else just proves that. Because David was such a wonderful guy, my standards have been raised HIGH. And the thing is, I don’t think there is another guy out there who can/will do for me what David has done/will do(?). It just sucks that circumstances don’t work and all. Though I have a fear. My biggest fear right now is that over the summer or xmas break or something, I’ll see David. If I see him, no fail, both of us will fall in love again (actually, it isn’t falling in love again, it’s seeing the person, and realizing that you never stopped loving them). And what happens next? Well, let me tell you. We hang out, we kiss, we proclaim our love for each other, regardless of whether we are seeing someone else (hmm sound familiar?), and then we date (maybe). But my fear is this: That all this shit will go down over the summer, we spend 3 wonderful months together, and then.. BAM! Andrew moves off to California and everything is ruined. I have wanted to go to college in California all my damn life. I’m not sure how I could possibly pick between my love and my dreams. There is always the fear that things with David would not work out and then I would be stuck at a school I didn’t want to be at. I like how none of this has even happened. But I really think its gonna. I know that I won’t go the entire summer without seeing him. And in all honesty, I want to ask him to come to NJ with me. There isn’t anyone in the world I would rather go with. Which is weird, cause it would be like “Hi, we’ve talked some, and haven’t seen each other all year, but will you go to New Jersey to see my family with me?” Right. But I think he would do it. And that would be great. We could tour NY together, go swimming in the ocean together, go visit Erin, take walks down the boardwalk. I wish it was like that. Perhaps I’ll convince David to come move to California with me. We can live together and be the happy couple that I know is within us. Or maybe I have to wait 5 years until we can be together. Ugh, I’m so damn impatient. I think I am gonna call him later this week. He did tell me to call. It sucks, everytime I call, I want to ask if he still has feelings for me, and everytime we hang up, I always want to say “I love you.” Honestly, there always seems to be a little pause when we are about to say bye, and I think both of us wants to say I love you, and at the same time, both of us knows it just makes things harder. Like it’s not so bad when I don’t know what he feels, but if I know for a fact that he loves me, it makes it worse b/c I know that we CAN and SHOULD be together, but we AREN’T. I am so reading far too deep into everything. But it’s like, I don’t even find people very attractive anymore. David was the epitome of everything. Grr.. why is it like this? I think life is playing a cruel trick on me. It must hate me. Oh well…. I’ll survive, as I always do.
I love my Goose. Hope he still loves me too.

Soups On
LOL oh the Simpsons. YAY SIMPSONS! Anyways, today has been rather uneventful. I reshot all my pictures so hopefully they come out well. If they don’t I’m gonna shoot myself in the face… or shoot again, whichever will work better.
Well I got a request for a character list. LOL. So here goes.
MAIN CHARACTERS-these are the people I will probably be referring to most often.
Andrew McGeehan-this is me. Anyone who reads this should know who I am, so no further explanation is needed.
Erin-this is my best friend in NJ. She isn’t really a girlscout cookie seller, but I love her anyway. Oh, and she can’t conduct herself at wakes.
David-this is my ex boyfriend that I am still in love with. Yeah, it sucks, but he really is a great guy.
Skinny AKA Mike-a good friend of mine, I used to have a crush on him.
Jenny-another good friend of mine, we have grown a little apart in the recent weeks, but I still consider her one of my better friends.

Dustin-a really good friend of mine who moved to Iowa City to go to college. We dream of going to California together.

Katie-Katie is another good friend of mine (sheesh I have a lot of good friends) She is bitter as anything, and that’s what we love about her. Sarcasm is needed when dealing with her.
Courtney-Yet another wonderful friend. We’ve been friends forever, and she is just great. Also known as my “sugerpie” and “honeybunch.”
Sheila-a good friend. We met on the job (at Hy-Vee). The night we met, we performed “Operation Ben” and have been inseperable ever since. She goes to U of I.

Laura-she is awesome! We are eyebrow ring buddies. I really like Laura and don’t get to see her as much as I’d like to.
Adam-a really cool guy that I met through Skinny. He is awesome, and he used to hate me, but now things are excellent! I love you!

Natalie-another friend from school, who is precious!
Jesup-a boy I work with at the Gas Station. He also goes to my school, he’s really nice.

Alex-new boy from Tennessee (sp?) He has a cute little accent and is pretty nice.
Stephanie-she is the greatest! She wrote me a note practically every day during Advanced Math last year. A very nie and kind person!
Sasha-very uplifting and spiritual person. She is always trying to make everyone happy and she is involved in EVERYTHING!
Tracey-I have known her since freshman year, and I think we’ve had a billion classes together. She’s nice and can sometimes be very funny.
Chelsy-she is soo cute! we’ve also been friends since freshman year (not good ones though) and we have lockers next to each other, so we always bitch about the idiots at our school.

Sarah W.-she is really cool! We did an acting ensemble freshman year and I’ve never forgotten her! I don’t see her much because she is always at Central. She’s great though.
PEOPLE I WISH I COULD FORGET (AKA EX BOYFRIENDS)
Jeremiah-first guy I ever went out with. Nuff said.
Naithen-we dated for a month and he broke up with me right after his show choir show, on stage, in front of everyone. Tactful.
Will-really hot guy. We dated for a little bit.
Jeremy-ooh, not my greatest decision. Oh well, he was nice, I guess..
Brian-also known as Big BP. He moved to Texas. I haven’t seen him in awhile.
Well, I think those are all the people that I’ll ever mention, unless I meet new people in which case I won’t be adding them here because that would be too much work. Now on to what is actually going on in my life.
Well I go upstairs today after school, and Kelly (my sis) and Mother seem to be fighting. I guess John is going to have an interview for a job in Florida. So she was freaking out because she thinks just cause he has an interview, we are packing our bags next week. Hello, first of all, we aren’t going to go at least until I graduate, cause I’m not just gonna pack up with only 3 terms left. I’m gonna stay at Waukee. She is just stupid. She was like crying and stuff. I think it would be neat to move again, and I regret that maybe I won’t be around to experience that. My mom was like “Now go look for colleges in Florida.” I was like “mmm no, Florida is too hot for me.” Anyways, she started yelling at me about something random, which made no sense. I was like “Do what you want, I’m going to California.” The only downside, which I just realized, is that if they move to Florida, then I have absolutely no incentive to come back to Iowa ever. I won’t come back on holidays cause I won’t have any family here. Which would be sad, because I might not be able to see my friends anymore, or David, and that would just be traumatic. But I’m not gonna be like my sis and pretend we’ve moved already. I personally doubt that we will actually move, and when we do, it won’t affect me. However, if they move to Florida, Mother will be even further from California, and she may not enjoy that, and may prevent me from going. GRR… why does she have to try and stop me from doing what I want to do? Sorry, but I have my own life, and I am going to go where I want to go. I want to experience everything I possibly can. Oh well.
Skinny better call soon, I’m getting restless.
My first Friday in, oh I don’t know, EVER, that I don’t have to work! YAY!
BREAK!
My Wall!
So they came and “fixed” my shower last week.
But it had still been doing the same thing… run for a while, and then shut off. It wasn’t really bothering me. I could at least take showers now with pressurized water, but this morning…
This morning I got up and went to take a shower. I went in there, turned on the water, got it to the temp that I want and turned it to the shower head.
Nothing.
So I turned it all off, and started again…
Nothing.
So I tried again, and still NOTHING!
I took a bath this morning. I was really pissed. So I call the repairman they said they’ll have to tear the wall out, and replace the whole thing, it’ll take a couple days. I said it’d be alright. They’ll start work on it tomorrow.
Finally, perhaps I’ll have a real working shower.
I’ve been looking into internships for next summer, perhaps even next semester. I applied to one at Apple, in Cupertino, CA Just south of SF. I doubt I’ll get it, but it’d be sweet if I did.
I’ve also been looking into Dell, HP, Compaq, and a couple other places. Unfortunatly, I’m going to pretty much have to leave Iowa. Unless I want an internship programming COBOL. Which I totally DON’T want to do.
It’s sad thinking about it really. That I’m going to have to leave for one at some point, leave everything here, for that 3-6 months. I don’t want to, but that’s all part of living… I was thinking that perhaps Adam could stay at my apartment while I’m gone, that way I don’t have to move out, whatever. It’s still a long ways down the road. I don’t want to get into that all yet.
Well the power just went out and I’m still typing on this.. I must go now though before my battery gets drained. Laters all!
Welcome To Lincoln
So far the trip has been very fun shit! We got to Corning about 5:30 on Wed night and picked up David… Withholds drowling.
We drove back to Creston and went to some Chinese Buffet and then went to the theater next door. We were expecting to see Lilo and Stitch but they were playing MiB II, so we saw that instead. It was good cause there was a really hot gay boi working at the theater. After the movie we waited around in the lobby and talked to the gay owner. He was amusing.
From there we went back to Corning and out to some lake. We were going to go skinny dipping… Withholds drowling again. But when we got to the beach there were two little kids there. So we were like, we’ll we can wait tell they leave and then go…. Well more and more people kept showing up… About 10:00 it was finally dark enough and there was only another small group of people on the other side of the beach, we decided to go. We took off our clothes and stripped down to our underwear and jumped in. We waited a bit longer and the other people were finally leaving. Adam took off his underwear and was walking back up towards the beach to put them up there when another truck pulled up, and two guys got out…
They shined thier lights on us and said “We’re locking it down, you need to leave”
Fuckers, I wanted to go skinny dipping. But when we were getting out, David was wearing white briefs, and they showed off his ass, so nice. OMG!
So we got dressed and went to another part that doesn’t close, but there were people there. So we just hung out and talked.
We got back to Lenox about 12:00 and went to bed.
We left Corning about 12:00 the next day to head to Lincoln. The ride out was tons of fun. We got here about 2:30 and just hung out tell 7ish when we went to see fireworks and buy our own. That was funny shit. lol
The place we went to see fireworks is Waverly we went to like a ball park or something and sat right in the middle of people shooting off fireworks all around us.. Not just those little ones that stupid Iowans have. But the big fuck off ones that shoot up in the air like 100 feet. It was scary.
The actual fireworks was cool as well. After that we came back to her house and hung out tell like 3AM when we all went to bed. And yes, we went to bed.
That’s about it. We got up today around 12:00 and we’re going to go shopping here soon… But David’s still in the shower..
Oh, funny story, he went in there, and after a couple minutes opens the door, and you could tell he was naked and he asked “Are there any nude beaches around here?” lol…
Things Are Coming Up
Well, I leave for a trip tomorrow, a trip across Iowa, so I won’t be back and updating tell Sunday. Perhaps Saturday if things go well. lol
I can’t wait to go. David called me and said that he can go now, so that’ll be three of us from Lenox to Lincoln. Good times.
Not much really happened today, it’s been very stressfull and I want to punch Nazanin. I swear she just gets more and more annoying as the days pass by. Today Barb’s computer went out. Now, if we would have implemented our plans, when we said to, all we would have had to do is reformat it, and boom, it’s all good, everything works. But nope, she didn’t want to do that. So well, it took all fucking day with her constanly coming in and fucking things up… Now even though we didn’t have the good way of doing things in place, if she would have just left me alone and let me do my job, well. It would have been done in two hours instead of 6 hours. Gwar. She just really fucked up my day.
Then I also had a COBOL assingment due tomorrow that I had started on tell today, cause well. That’s a different story, but yeah, I programmed it, and went to test it. I kept getting the same error over and over, and I didn’t know why. So I did some research and found that A) when you use a variable for math, you have to initialize it to ZERO before you can use it, she forgot to mention that, and B) the test data she gave us was mostly incorrect, even though she said it was all good data. Good as in, when I test it, it should all return TRUE, not false. Whore, so I just got done with that and once I’m done updating this I’m going to go and start on the program that’s due for Monday.
I’m thinking I’m going to take the laptop on the trip so that I can do some HW while I’m gone. We’ll see.
Laters all.
PS>> Happy B-DAY Beak!!
