Who woulda thought?
You'll never guess who I spent the last 5 hours of my Friday night with.
Really.
Try it.
Give up?
My dad.
Yes, the man that I could never bring myself to talk to, hug, or spend more than 10 minutes alone with came to the beautiful (and by beautiful I mean rainy and cold) city of Greenville to pick up his newly repaired car. After all my resolutions, this was perfect timing. So I picked him up at 4, picked up his car, and then went downtown for dinner. We ate at Trio's...a popular Italian place. We talked. Like really talked. Yeah, we did the superficial subjects, talked about the weather, politics, classes, etc. But we also talked about how I'm doing with stuff, what I'm thinking about my future, what we should do about school. There were very few awkward pauses. Apparently these things are a lot easier if you're not scared to death of trying. I even initiated a hug, and hugged him again when he left after we went out for dessert.
My world is definitely looking a lot brighter.
Having some freak-out issues over the food, but I'm staying off the scale, and I'm watching Meet Joe Black. I :heart: this movie soooooo much. I'll probably crochet some as well. Mo let me borrow this super-cool book she has on different types of crochet. Yes, I realise I'm a nerd. But right now I'm a very content nerd, so there. :)
Love you all great big bunches.
