my first time
Well, i thought this journal thingo, whatever it is would be more appropriate for this entry, rather than my myspace blog, because people at work dont know I have this. I only really joined so I could read Danny and carlys journals, carly raved about it when she joined up...and now has a paid account?? hmm.....but back on topic - i didnt want to offend anyone at work with what i think im going to write, not that it against any of them, or i dont think it would offend them, but word could... "get back" - and i dont want that to happen (read on and you'll get it, if anyone does read these, i doubt it), would ruin any 'chance' that was left.
jenna started just before easter with us, luke and me saw her when she came to arrange an interview time, and thought, god dam, she is so hot!! Now you might say, hey big deal, a hot chick! well come and work with us, and we have had zero hot chicks, well one (hayley, but she just got on my nerves so much..shes a friend again though, we sorted through our issues, but we all agreed...she wouldnt be girlfriend material - wayyyyy to high maintanence as blokes say). But yeah, zero stunning chicks excluding Haylz. we have had some okkkk ones - rachel (first 6 months), kara and danni (currently)...
back to the story, so jenna has the interview, and my boss informs us that she will hire her, because she just fell in love with her and blah blah, yadda yadda. luke and me knew that jenna would be an asset to the shop without even talking to her! i mean, if you noticed a hot chick at the counter selling yummy bread, most would more than likely make a beeline to go and have a "decent look", would they not? and we are talking abut elizabeth here, even i can tell all of the old guys are sleezes. they arent there for the bread - do u know how many old guys come in alone??
all of us bakers (all the boys) were rapt that leanne was finally getting her act together and getting a gorgeous hot chick!! it didnt take leanne long to find out about jennas lovelife...single. leanne loves playing matchmaker, so she susses out that jenna thinks one of the bakers is cute..jenna didnt say who..but leanne suspected it was yours truly..and two weeks later when i ring peter to find out what was happening with production the next day, leannes in the backgounrd..."is that michael, is that michael? jenna thinks your cute, she thinks your hot!" my first thought...sweeeeettt!!
so the next day, luke and me baked off by 7.57am - a record early time for having th ovens off - by at least half hour (which, as it turned out, we beat again today - 7.42am ;P). we ring peter and tell him that we are way faster, so of course, leanne and peter think product must be shit...leanne comes in to check it out...she claims she had to come in and do the banking...at 8.30am???? she came in her uniform to stay around for one reason, and one reason only - jenna was starting at 10...she was there to make sure that i asked her out...i would have regardless, she had nothing to worry about!! Luke said to me that morning, "yeah no chance, jenna wont go out with you!!" so i asked her out to the movies, and shes like" yeah! thatd be great, id love that." we swapped phone numbers, and i left, and said id text/ring her later to see what she wanted to see/get up to. apparently when leanne asked jenna if i asked her out, she said, " yes, thank you heaps :)"
i was talking to david on msn later (he used to work at BD with me), he asked how my day was.. "pretty good when ya pick up a hot chick" was my response...thats where patrice, his gf (my work colleague) comes on and says "jenna has a bf." im like "nah she doesnt, thats what she said, and thats what leanne said". patrice was adamant that she did, so i texted leanne and said yeah patrice (who usually is full of it) says that jenna has a bf..leanne wrote back, no she doesnt, patrice is having you on!
i thought nothing more of until later that night, just after i had fallen asleep at the computer, when i heard my kiwi hakka message tone go off...it was jenna, she had been to the gym and a combat class with patrice, and evidently the talked...these words stuck out in the message "i dont have a bf but i am seeing someone". WTF does that mean, i thought. various other msgs gave me the indicator she still wanted to go out, "i hope i havent pissed u off, id still like to go out with you sometime" "i can tell your an awesome guy" "you should come and join my gym"...things like that
(wow, this is longer than i thought it would be...)
I asked her on the following Thursday, so do you still want to go out..and shes like "yeah course!!!" as if she had been hoping id ask her that question. we organised that we would go out that weekend to a movie, probably sunday if i recall, because she had work saturday, and i had footy...it never eventuated because Friday she came to work as crook as a dog (mind you she still looked mighty hot!!) so we didnt end up organising anything.
fast foward to last thursday (3rd may), and leanne, in her cupid kinda way, informs me that jenna doesnt know wheter to get back with her exbf (who dumped her might i add....) or to go out with me - i had a feeling that the whole seeing someone was something like that, but kept ignoring that fact, which in hindsight i should have sorted out before i got too attached. i said to leanne, i dont really care, if she wants to do that she can, its not up to me...im not one who is going to try and control other peoples lives. The fact is, I did care, and was, well pissed off, although I didnt harp on to anyone at work about that fact. jenna rocked up at 12, I acted as normal as i had been to her since i started, maybe i didnt say as much, i certainly didnt say that leanne told me she was undecided on what she wanted. The fact is though, anthony had been in a shitty mood with me for weeks because apparently i cost him over a 1000 bucks coz he cant have his nosejob now coz im away in perth and got in for holidays first, so he had to cancel everything he planned 3 months afdter i had organised my trip!!! how is that my fault??? but meh, thats another story. So yeah, he had been in a pissed off mood all morning, and add that to the fact that I found out the night before that my only remaining grandparent had to have a TRIPLE bypass, i wasnt exactly in the talking kinda mood after 8 hours at work, putting up with anthony, owrrying about my grandma, and then hearing that jenna doesnt know what she wants..i tried to act normal, but I guess it wasnt normal enough...leanne told her after i left that she had told me, and asked jenna if i had said anything..."no he didnt really talk to me today.." was the response, or so im told.
i texted her friday, and said i didnt want her to feel pressured to come out with me if she wanted to get back with her ex bf, and i could totally understand how she was feeling....when in actual fact i didnt get what the hell she was thinking!?!?! how can u get back with someone like that who has dumped your arse once already??? its seriously f***d up. i will never ever get the way chicks think? are they normal? why cant everything be easy like it is for us blokes, they always make things a hell of a lot more complicated than what they actually are!!
yesterday, i spoke to jenna explaining about why i wasnt very talkative on thursday just to put her mind at ease, so that she didnt think it was her fault (it wasnt).....chatted for the short length of time our shifts crossed over (about 15 mins, and only coz i had to work 90 mins O/T..) which was good.
I rock up at work, and first thing Luke says is..."jennas quit" "ur bullshitting me" he's like nah "look at the roster, its been changed".....my mood just went downhill from there...apparently she cant handle two jobs - its only like 35 hours p/w she does!! FFS why are all the girls at work so slack, and such whingers? "im tired, i dont get paid enough, i want more hours, i want less hours, where are scones, where are twisteds, wheres turkish bread, where is pumpkin cob.." are some of the regular things we hear..
I dont think that we are getting the whole story..cant handle two jobs my arse. I think the ex-current bf (whatever he is) is over-possessive, doesnt want her working with someone that has the hots for her. Just a theory, but thats what i think.
Jenna was (is) such an awesome chick, she's so easy to talk to, and even better she loves cricket and motorsport!! Shes gorgeous, smart, likes to keep fit, and really really friendly. All the customers love her. I thought I was onto a really good thing with her, and now, well, looks like there is next to no chance of anything between us now, which is what I am really disappointed about. I just dont see how you can go out with an ex! I mean, you have to break up for a reason, whats so different now? What will/has change/d?
I guess the fact is that Jenna is the first chick in ages Ive had a serious thing for, from the first day we met, we just clicked, and knowing the fact that if it wasnt for the exbf, we would be going out...thats what annoys me, not the fact that we arent. I mean, its not like she didnt want to go out with me....thanking the boss for setting her up, me having to find out from someone else that she was seeing someone, and so on....all the signs indicated that she wasnt just yanking my chain.
im not going to treat her like an arsehole like most guys would, il still be friends with her, in the hope that one day we can be more than friends.
well this was wayy longer than i expected, i hope no one (if anyone even reads it) got bored, but i just needed to get all that out...thought the whole story would make it easyier to understand.
