All the good things that happened to me today!
Today started off great. It was my first day of rest since classes started so I just lied around in bed and played video games in my boxers. I know it sounds uneventful but it was very relaxing. I still haven't found a job (honestly haven't really been looking) but Joe Lisle just calls me randomly and asks me if I still want the job that I interviewed for a few weeks ago and I said sure so he put me on the schedule right there over the phone. :)
Eventually I check my email and find out that Huntington Bank replied to my application and wanted me to come in for assessment testing. Sweet. So I drive out there, and that’s where my day starts to turn..
I got a call from Marcus who was going to come to Pride with me tomorrow, and he tells me he couldn't make it because he couldn't get off work. Ok.. So I get to the testing place and try to start taking my test, the computer wouldn't log me in. I wait for another computer, and then the files wouldn't load so I couldn't take that one. Luckily it was an hour before closing time so I get to drive all the way back out to Easton next week :).. 40 miles of good gas used.
So I call Sarah to see if she still wanted to go see the movie tonight, and went off on a long speech and in the back of my mind realize that her voice sounds different. Good reason for that. I called the wrong Sarah in my phone and got hung up on? Nice.
So I look smart and just redial this time making sure that I'm calling Sarah He Ran and not Sarah my step-brother's ex Sarah.. And asked what she's doing tonight. Turns out she has to work tomorrow morning at 8 and should stay in. Thus there goes my plan for a movie, and it dawned on me that she already told me that she wasn't going to make it to the Parade, but she gave me the maybe rain check for tomorrow when her friend and his bf are coming.
Through all my planning for Pride and all the things that I wanted to do, I forgot to think of who is still in town to go with... The epiphany hits me that I know no one that I want to go to the parade with because everyone is busy, thus I must go alone... Amazing.
I call Tyler to tell him about my mishaps at Huntington (considering he already works there) and as I'm driving I miss my exit and wind up on high street in the middle of Pride traffic. Yay. I even invite Tyler over to watch a movie or go out or SOMETHING but he turns me down as well with an indefinite reason.. So I'm stuck and that’s when I finally start letting all the good things about my day sink in. . hmm. So I turn to the one person that could appreciate my situation the most. Michelle. Basically I hit the point to where I couldn't stop laughing about the FUN I had that day and told her all that was going on. By this point every little thing I did was making me even more "happy" from my AMAZING parking skills (...) or the point to where I just wanted to curl in bed and wish for the day to be over and then realize that I still had things to do around the house.. ::sigh::
What I've learned from the day is that at the moment if though I know I do have friends I fell like I don't at the moment because everyone is out of town and busy with work so I don't have anyone solid to hang out with this weekend. I wanted to go out tonight, but I also want to get drunk, and I couldn't do that if I drove. Thus I'm not going out. I don't even really wanna go out tomorrow either now. I think I'm just going to put a smile on my face, and drudge through tomorrows festivities, and meet the guy of my dreams (ok that’s a little to optimistic) or at least a new gay male friend (of which I am in short supply).
But as I end this day (even through all of my sarcasm) I'm not actually in a bad mood. Just contemplative I guess. I'm actually quite fine being alone right now. Its a feeling that I haven't embraced in a while, and there actually is a certain comfort in not needing anyone anymore as I did so much during my first year of college.
I gotta admit though. I REALLY miss Michelle! She would actually make my day good all the way around.. ::yet another sigh::
