Not too much to write home about
I haven't had a chance to update my journal as much as I would like, but just the same, I don't really have too much to write home about. Everything has been pretty good though. I started work study with the soccer team again on Saturday, which was awesome. I definitely missed video taping and seeing the team (I'm not wicked close with the players, but they like me and I think they're cool, so it's a good deal). I'm going tomorrow to get that conflict with the music department all worked out so I can put in the hours for the game and freakin' get paid. I am going through money so quickly these days. Me, Talia, Heather, Jeremie, Katie, Jeremie's girlfriend Katie, and John went to the Olive Garden last night for dinner and it was awesome. I still can't believe I spent $25 and some change on me alone, but it was worth it. Good food, the best company...what more could you want? :)
I'm kinda jumping around and not explaining my weekend in any particular order.
Friday was an interesting day. Donner came to visit Talia and he brought two friends with him. Can you feel my excitement? :/ I really can't stand Donner for numerous reasons (some people might say I have no reason to not like the kid, but that just means they have no real clue as to why I don't like him) so I managed to keep my distance as best I could. Donner, surprisingly, wasn't even the worst of the three. Jess was one of the friends and she was alright...Talia gets mad when I say the three of them were obnoxious because she seemed to really like Jess....and true, she was alright, best of the three, but I still wasn't all that crazy about her...no real reason, just wasn't. Tom was the other kid and do not even get me started on him. He was fucking obnoxious the entire time he was here. He was always talking extremely loudly yet telling everyone else to take it down a couple of decibels (he seriously needs to take it down to where dogs can't even hear him), making fun of Talia's accent literally every time she opened her mouth, and man, just making himself way too at home. They ended up staying an extra night because they were going to stay with Katie high school but she was being her usual, annoying, "I'm not kidding this time, I'm seriously mad at Donner" self and didn't want them to come over. I seriously would have had no problem feeding them to her and her bitchy mood or throwing them on the street, but I was an extremely, and I stress the word extremely, good roommate [as were Katie and Heather] and we let them stay an extra night. I seriously don't want the points for this, I want the freakin' brownies! There's just too many jokes surrounding them...all three of them were incredibly easy to make fun of. They were just so fucking obnoxious. But Talia had a great weekend and was very happy and that's what matters. :)
Heather and I went party hopping a bit that night to get out of the apartment because we both had just about enough of our guests. We went to Brent and Mike's first, which was cool and then we went down the street to Scully's and hung out there for a bit. It was fun. The only problem was my contacts started to really hurt my eyes and I could barely see the entire night.
Sunday I wore my glasses, but my eyes were worse than ever. It was really sunny out too and my eyes are wicked sensitive to even the slightest bit of light when they get that bad (I really hope I'm due for an eye doctor appointment soon because this is getting ridiculous). I offered to drive Talia home to Saugus and we spent the day there. The plan was that I would just drop her off, but I seriously couldn't see. Talia let me stick around and it actually worked out well for her because she got to run her errands and such much earlier than she had anticipated. It was fun to hang out with her too.
It was also definitely a good thing that I got to spend some quality time with her. I have mentioned the funk I have been in for a while and it turns out I was kinda wrongfully throwing it all on Talia. I figured that I was doing that because I was really insecure about my relationship with her and I really wasn't sure why. I went to Joe's Friday night and we played Texas Hold 'Em after we talked for a good while on this subject. It just seemed to me like she didn't care if I was mad at her, or feeling insecure, or whatever. I really think, though, that it's a self esteem issue on my part. Everyone said, "Talk to Talia about what's bugging you" but seriously, what more does she have to say to me? I just need to get it through my thick skull that she does care about me and being my friend and such (she wrote something really nice to me in her livejournal that I printed up and keep in my wallet to remind me of how stupid I am that I would ever question our relationship....I should probably listen to it more often). All that said, I actually did talk to Talia during the drive back to Boston. By then, I was pretty much over it because I want to be over it and more importantly, I need to be over it. It wasn't the extensive conversation I was planning on having and I didn't really get into the detail I should have, but it was good nonetheless...we're cool (we're always cool...if there is ever one thing about our relationship that I am sure of, that is it....that no matter what, we're always cool and can bounce back from anything). So all is good with me and Talia. I have some stuff to work on, but I think it's all good.
I should probably go and listen to the tracks I have to listen to for class tomorrow (HT 2: Classical Music). I did the reading but didn't really read that intently and I went to the library to watch the opera we had to watch and I really know nothing more about it than I did before I watched it....should be an interesting class tomorrow.
