Well, back from my weekend away from home. I got nailed as soon as I got home, of course, but I don't care anymore. Stupid mom can't just be a mom. That whole adult talk? Suck-ass bullshit. She changes her tune faster then a schitzophrenic guitarist. She needs some serious medication, I'm telling you. LoL. Anyway, I had fun, at least, what I qualify as "fun." Some people don't think just laying around, talking, playing video games, and watching movies is fun. Well, I like just being able to relax for once, you know? It's so hard to spend all damn day working,t hen spend all damn night hiding here, since I only have snoring parents to go home to. It was worth the small frustration of Jen being a little more then irritable. It kept us from being romantic or even close, which was my whole goal for the weekend. Ah well, try and try again, right? I really need to spend some time with her when she doesn't already have that once a month visitor, maybe then we could be serious for a change, and she would be less irritable and stop being so frustrated with the little things I can't control. We got to spend a lot of time alone, but you know, it's not the same when you're always ticked at me. I forgive you, but I really just want you to see the side of me that adores to be romantic.
I barely got anything for my birthday, you know? My grandma got me some cheap ceramic asian dragon off of eBay, and a matching cheap jade pendant. They're nice, but I don't really like the whole Eastern dragon thing, at least not the cheap, mismatched kind. Example: Jen got me one of the most beautiful dragons in my entire collection. I didn't really expect it, it's HUGE, a beautifully detailed dragon, laying in a very realistic pose on it's stomach. It's wings are apart just a little on it's back, and that's where you put the incense stick, the ash falling between the wings. It's utterly beautiful, one of my finest pieces. Another example is Susan. She sent me a box of Prismacolors (I've never had any) and something I did not expect at all. She bought me the second book in the Sleeping Beauty series by Anne Rice. I never would have expected that, but it was something I really wanted. People I hardly ever see know my tastes better then my own family, because my family doesn't pay attention to me. I absolutely love the gifts I got from my friends, and my girlfriend, and that makes my birthday perfect. Where for art thoust card, Mallory? Maybe it'll be here tomorrow, cheer me up a little more. I actually wince at the thought of a family party, unless they just used my list, in which case it will be okay. Birthday's are such a hassle without friends, I swear.
Thank you to all my friends, whose friendship I could never replace. And thank you Jen, for just being you, and don't worry, I had a wonderful time. I just wish you would be in better spirits for once, so you could see what romance is, and it isn't sex.
