The End of Days!

Monday, May 5th.

So it is the end of the end. Well. Halfway at least. Today marks the halfway point to my graduation. End of my sophomore year. There is definitely a possibility that I will be enjoying VCU for a 5 year plan as opposed to the normal 4 but hey, I am a craft student. I only have soo much time for gluing together Popsicle sticks and turning pipe cleaners and googley eyes into manic flowers to give to mom on Mother's Day. Which, ladies and gentlemen, is quickly approaching. Call yer mom, send her some flowers, and say thank you for the hours of painful labor it took her to pop you out into this world. Maybe a secret thank you to dad for going out to the grocery store and Taco Bell at all hours of the night to feed her cravings for odd combinations and greasy fast food during those nine months of no sleep.. plus all the other years it took you to stop crying in the middle of the night cos the boogey man (aka jacket hung on a door) was harassing you.

Besides that. Ben and I recently celebrated an awkward month anniversary. We have been dating since December 1st. I last saw him January 14th. I guess better that then none at all. We were talking about going to meet his parents during the Christmas break. I am really nervous about that. Its not like any old relationship in high school. His mom is in Texas, his father in Georgia. I don't know how it will go! I don't want to be the "the weird creepy chick our son is dating" that is always discussed over a bottle of wine when out with family friends or co-workers.

I miss him terribly. I think things will be different for a while.. not the same as before he left. But then again, it is hard to pick up on a budding relationship after not seeing each other for months. A phone call and a quick AIM chat was always nice to know that he is okay. I am just worried. Things will get back to normal after a while. Its just those first couple months of readjusting. I am much more independent than I used to be when we first started seeing each other so I think it will make the transition for him being home again a lot easier. He can find his own place to veg out for a while in, I will be busy with school and a new apartment. I can have my time, and he can have his. And one day, if things go how I want them to go, we can possibly move in together, drive each other crazy, and have a great time. Maybe even a couple cats and a dog might get involved. Hahah. Eh I am getting ahead of myself but I like to dream that this relationship could go somewhere. Not like a high school relationship that just stagnates.

Not that you, Alex, were the cause of that stagnation, not in any way shape or form. I think we both realized what that relationship was just to get each other on into a new part of our lives. It meant a whole lot to me and I hope your new girlfriend will be much better for you than I could be. Gimme a call every once and a while. Even though we are different people now, I still consider you a friend and miss all the Georgetown experiences that you, Joey, Spanky, and I used to have yelling at the hari krishnas, harassing bums, eating in the Johnny Rocket's that got closed down for a roach infestation, and the hours of CD browsing at Smash Records. Its funny to look at my walls in my parents house that are just covered in pictures of us. What days we had.

In other news. Becca finally got a new tattoo. "In Sorte Diaboli" on my upper back. "In League.." or "Chosen By the Devil" Its pretty sweet. Needs a bit o fixing to make it straight but hey it looks awesome regardless. Going to a Catholic wedding in Boston for a family member I don't know in a couple weeks will be funny.

Jackie and I are going to Cancun from the 27th of May to the 1st of June. Fuck yea. Drink party beach time. Should be a blast. When I told be on the phone, he didn't necessarily sound happy at the idea but I could just be reading too much into it. I hope he isn't worried that I am gonna get drunk and cheat on him. That would just make me feel bad. I mean, I if I was gonna do that sort of thing, why would I wait til I go to a foreign country to fuck a frat boy and get VD? He obviously knows I am not the cheating type. When we were just seeing each other, I never laid a hand on another man until he told me we were done.. and it was still weeks after he left for Maryland and cos I got really drunk. I am terribly faithful to the son of a bitch and I hope he realizes it! My libido is in agony! IT SCREAMS FOR SATISFACTION! Haha.. Baby, you better love me long time when you get home if you know what is good for you.

Things are starting to get into motion for my move out. I am gonna be out of my current apartment by May 23rd. Move into Holly's June 1st and then Holly and I will move into our new apartment July 1st. YAY! Its right across from Belle Isle so much river time! Drunk BBQs and party time to be had. I will miss my room cos its so big but a "new" apartment will be much appreciated. Mostly the lack of lead paint peeling onto the floor from the ceiling for the cat to eat, the rat infestation, and the lack of air conditioning (plus shitty kitchen) will not break my heart to part with.

So that is my quick update. More to be had. I will prolly try to bring my camera out tonight to take pictures of the debauchery and fun. I am DJing Sacro so come stomp yer hearts out and wish me a halfway through VCU day!

PS Happy Birthday Josie. Sorry I missed out on all the fun. Mars Bar sucked the life outta me when I was at work. And I got really sick. I will take you out for some sushi sometime, we need to catch up anyway.

sacrosanct, end of sophomore year, anniversary, tattoos, ben, apartment
