(no subject)
So I say to myself--what time better than 12:19 on a Saturday morning to write a little memoir of this summer? Then I reply to myself--no time, I say, no time.
The most pertinent reason being that I am farther away from Jason for longer than we have ever been apart. Ever. This is strange and I'm hoping he dislikes this distance as much as I do. But then I realize I'm stupid for even writing that because I just talked to him and know that he does. Dependency is a less spoken of side effect of love.
Ok so what else then? Not much really. After school ended--or rather right when it was ending--Jason and I moved in and we've slowly been acquiring furniture ever since (furniture is like our children really)--and we are still accepting donations mind you (no one puts useless second-hand shit to work like we do).
So we had a couple of parties and a couple of fights. We work almost constantly and have almost completely opposite schedules, but we deal. I started serving and realize that more people are severely lacking in social skills and/or are obese than are not, which is scary, but if they tip well then they can be as socially inept and fat as they wish--a boy really has to pay the bills somehow.
Then through the summer I realize I had grown a mullet and also had grown fat myself. So I cut the hair and I mostly like to blame Jason's eating habits for the extra jiggle as I so lightly put it--late night binging and so forth--because he doesn't gain and well...I do. So therefore I am currently dieting, and I hate it.
I went home twice to visit. Miss a lot of my friends. We've all grown up really and just recently (in the past 24 hours) have decided that we're all going to live together in a large, communal house--who wants to join? We're friendly. Promise. And that's when I knew that I really love them.
And I also realized that I neglected a whole lot of them as well--yes I mean you Mark and Erin and Kyle, granted Kyle doesn't read this, and hopefully Mark and Erin still do because Erin your disco isn't dead he just went into hiding and Mark sometimes I need to be emo and surround myself in smoke but am at a loss as to who to do that with. I really will be in touch soon--have patience with me it's been a busy/chaotic time. I'll come round and haven't forgotten.
So more or less that has been the summer. I'll write more. Promise.
Love,
Jake
