Yay! Chris is visiting!!!!!
I'm so excited! Chris, my bf from Mass, is visiting me this weekend. I can't wait to show him the apartment and actually get to stay here for once. No hotels! *does the happy dance* So I've been cleaning. Was going to be doing more cleaning than I actually have, but Tanya came over and we spent most the afternoon together. Was so great to see her. I am so happy she got her tattoo. It looks great!
Life has been busy and interesting lately. I know I haven't posted lately, but I just haven't had the energy. Work has been going well for the most part. Wish more people would come in and get a massage, but I can't force people to come in. I ended up taking a part time job at Basin at the Mall of America. One of my clients is the manager there and she asked me if I knew anyone who needed a job. I said, "I do!" So I work once a week, ever other week right now. Perhaps more later depending on schedule. It's pretty cool. I knew of the store so I was aquainted with their product. Its kinda neat to cut soap and stuff. I like that everything is all natural.
I need a new car. I'm so fed up with mine. The back hatch window is dead, and the only way to open the hatch door is to roll the window down. Its making a clunking sound when I leave or after the car has sat for awhile. It feels like its right beneath my feet. I've been told it might be a strut or Tie rod(?). Very frustrating. My parents don't want me to spend money on it, but its driving me nuts. Of course, it doesn't help that I don't have the money to fix it either. The car is old, its rusting to death, but its been good so far. Just hope it stays that way for awhile longer. I can't afford a different car. *sighs*
So I'm seeing a new person now. This is new news. I've known him online for a few years now, but our conversations were rather quick and mundane. Hey, how are you? How's life? Work going well...that kind of stuff. He knew I was getting a divorce, etc. Well, we started having real and deeper conversations after my birthday. One day we talked online having two four hour conversations then he called me at home and we talked for another two to three hours. We have lots in common, some really surprising things too. We were both adopted. And that's not too out of the ordinary, but it isn't terribly common. He's been divorced, no kids. I think he's really cute and he tells me I'm gorgeous. He loves the fact that I'm short. We have a lot of the same ideas on many things. How odd to find someone who believes the same thing you do about crying of all things. He says he wants to give me all the things Erin didn't want to or couldn't. He understands that communication is so very important, especially in poly relationships. He knows about the other people in my life and seems fine with it right now. Of course, he's also long distance, living in Washington DC. But he is planning on visiting me. We are going to a friend of mine's wedding in April and he is trying to get out here before then too. Oh, he LOVES the Vikings too. I laughed at him when he told me that. He's apparently followed them since he was young. I told him that we'd have to go to a game sometime when he visits. He seems to like that idea. There is a chance he might move to Minnesota as well. But I'm not worrying about that. Need to meet him first to see how well things work between us. But this feels so right. I keep freaking out on him when we talk and i feel so bad about it. I'm just so scared. I don't want to be a rug for anyone else. I've been walked over too many times and I'm done. Then here comes this guy who seems too good to be true and he likes me. He likes me? He likes me! He says he loves me! I'm holding out on how I feel until I meet him. At this point, I don't think there's any reason why I wouldn't fall hard for him. This feels alot like when Chris and I started dating. I just knew it would work but needed to meet him Rl before I could actually say it was true. The same seems to be true here. Now if he would only tell me a date he was gonna visit! Then I could freak out about him coming to see me. *lol* Oh...did I happen to mention he's on LJ? Oh, well, he is. I just looked over his site though. He's never posted. *sighs* oh well. He can read me here.
Hmm...need to get more cleaning done, but Eric is online so I'm chatting with him too.
Well, guess I better get back to it.
