(no subject)
This weekend was fun. Friday morning, Christie and I woke up and decided to go to Atlantic City for the night. So we did. Because it made sense. I'm all about the free drinks ($1 after tipping) and Christie loves gambling. So I indulged in vodka and sprite while she indulged in three hand poker. She won $1700 and I waltzed in the hotel lobby... so I'd say it was a success.
Then we raced back to New York for dinner Saturday night with some of Christie's friends at Ruby Tuesday. Jamie, Jody and Julie. I might have made up Jamie. But her name started with a J. And then us two, Christie and Christine. It was a lot of fun. We ended up hanging out in the parking lot like hooligan teenagers (I was the youngest by the way, they're all 25). It was crazy though. So much fun. Makes me kind of sad that we never hung out with them when I actually went to Hofstra... Christie and I just holed ourselves up in her room watching movies back then.
Sunday we holed ourselves up in the movie theatre watching movies. Finally saw Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. Both very, very good. Although it was funny, watching the second, in the battle scene, a griffin came on. Christie: "Oh, look, a gryffindor!" me: "Uh... a gryffindor?" Christie: (laughing and trying to continue the theme) "Yes, and those are huffalumps." me: "You mean... hufflepuffs?" Oh, man, I just about died. It was great.
And the movies were free, along with the hotel room in Atlantic City, and dinner and lunch there, so that also rocks.
And I got a new lightsaber, so any time someone wants to have a lightsaber duel... I'm the girl to see.
And I think things are going to turn out well with Matthew. *grin* I wrote him a silly little email on Friday, just like, "hey, checking to make sure this is the right email address" and I said something else (top secret! I only told Christie, while I was drunk...) and he replied today with a laugh. Aw man, I wish I could go hang out with him right now... but I'm "revising poems"... obviously. The thing is that I don't want a real heavy duty relationship right now. I just want to know that someone's possibly there for me. I don't know. A low key relationship. I really like him (obviously) but... I'm in a good place right now. But I'm always willing to be surprised. I don't know. He might come down and visit me at home for my birthday, so we'll see what happens in the month until then.
I'm kind of nervous about going home for break tomorrow. Because then I have a much greater chance of running into Erik. And I want to see him. But I want to see the Erik that I know... and I don't expect that to happen. And I kind of keep hoping that he'll surprise me. That he'll make an effort. Why can't I just fucking forget it and move on?
Okay, back to my work, so maybe I can get some sleep tonight. I can't wait until tomorrow night. I can sleep as long as I want! It'll be blissful.
