What's going on in the life of Nadine?
Forgive me, Father.. it's been quite a while since my last confession.
Courtney's still here. Technically he hasn't moved in.. but he might.. especially if he gets a new (or another) job. He's stressing as usual. He had interviews with Americorps this week. I hope he gets a position with them. If he does, he'll be working at the same school as my mom (and carpooling with her). How funny is that? They've been at a meeting all day today.. I thought they would have been back by now.. but they're not. I miss him.
But yeah.. I've been spending my alone time today watching dvds (ones that C's already seen) and catching up on my email and such. Nothing too exciting.
Hmm.. I'm hungry. But I don't want to eat anything yet.. I want to wait for Courtney to get home. I've almost become the '50s housewife that I dread. I wake him up in the morning. I try to get him to bed on time. Yesterday, I reminded him to put down the toilet seat. I make him food every day (the other day I even made biscuits!). I sometimes pick up after him. At least I haven't started doing his laundry for him. Wait a minute.. that sounds less like a housewife and more like a mother. I'm not complaining.. really I'm not. :P Besides, I don't feel like his mother. And there's plenty of things I do for him that a mother wouldn't.. or at least shouldn't. ;)
Actually I'm not feeling bad about anything I do for him.. I want to do it. As far as cooking goes.. if I'm going to make something for myself anyway, I may as well make something for him. He used to only eat when I did.. and it made me sad because he normally eats a lot (way more in a day than I do).. so he was starving all the time. He still starves.. but he's gotten better at finding his own food when I'm not hungry. And regarding cleaning.. it's just that my room is enough of a pit with just me living here. So yeah.. it's pretty nasty with both of us. Gah.. the number of condom wrappers I keep finding all over the place is ridiculous. LoL.
Um.. yeah.
It's Halloween weekend. I was hoping to go to the Stuart Pirate Party and to the Poppy/Smeg Harvest dealie.. but those were canceled. So as of the moment, I have no plans. Actually I do have plans.. but.. I'm not at liberty to say what they are. Plus, I'm not sure if I'll actually go thru with them. Perhaps instead, Courtney and I will dress up and prance around town in our costumes. The only problem with that is my costume is rather difficult to "prance" in. But at least it's sexy. :P And Courtney doesn't have a costume. I told him a while ago that I'd put him in a dress and make him pretty.. but I guess we'll see what happens.
Oh, and I was able to reorder my dress in a size that fits.. but it cost me a lot more to do so. Oh well.
What else?
I'm going to withdraw from my Botany class. It's entirely too boring (too much of a review of Bio), and I have no desire to go. I've already missed two weeks. At least it's not a 5 credit class.. or I'd be kicking myself over the money I spent on it (and that I can't get back). Work is going good tho'. I missed a couple days last week because I wanted to spend more time with Courtney.. but I managed to get myself out of the house this week (and brought him along with me one day.. we went out to dinner at IHOP afterwards).
Franco called last night. And of course, C was sad when he found out that's who I had been talking to. La. I don't want him to be sad.. I think he got over it tho'. I hugged him and we didn't talk about it anymore. But anyway.. Franco was supposed to visit Vancouver last weekend, but never made it there. *shrug* He ended up spending a few days with some foreign exchange students from his teaching program.. and showing them around town.. and getting really drunk.. and then getting sad at his friends (not cuz of the debauchery.. but other things).
I guess it's good he wasn't able to come out here.. I am absolutely broke. Too broke for Vancouver. So we're thinking he might visit in the spring. By then, he'll have more money saved to do fun things.. and perhaps I'll have a paid position at the Tutoring Center and have something saved up as well. And perhaps it will just be better timing in general, and more of my friends will be able to go. He wants to hang out with Tyler and John. Heh. Tyler might be a possibility.. but I haven't seen or talked to John since the Tyler birthday fun. Franco is also anxious to meet Courtney. I think they would get along ok.. but yeah.. there might be sadness.
Meh.
Ah.. I think Courtney is home. Yay! And good timing on that because I think I've updated on just about everything I had intended to cover.
Oh.. one last item of business. Not sure about my party. It *will* happen.. but perhaps not when I was hoping.. especially since I still haven't pegged a location.
And yay! Courtney is home and he got the job! :P
