My greatuncle passed away yesterday. I was an emotional wreck.
On to happier things...
I went to class yesterday to take my mind off of things, and it really did help. When BO got to class, he made a point to walk by my table and say "hey!" to me as he was going to his seat. After class was over, we kind of ended up following each other around the room as he looked for fabrics for our upcoming project. I was telling someone that I had too many things picked out already. BO overheard me, and commented that he wished he had the same problem, then he asked me what area of the classroom I got all my fabrics from. I told him, then he put down the book he was looking at, and went where I told him. I followed closely behind, and we began talking about how this MIGHT not be his last semester because there are some issues with his internship. Then he started telling me how to go about getting an internship, and checked to be sure I got the e-mail he sent me a few weeks back to help me with our last project.
As he was looking for fabrics, the teacher asked him to complete a survey as she carried on a conversation with another student about pregnancy. They were saying all of the complications they went through, which caused me to mumble "I don't think i'm having babies". BO was the only one that heard me, and he let out a chuckle. After the survey, he brought books closer to me so I could see what he was picking out. Because I told him I was doing blue and gold, he would glance at fabrics and go "hmmm, bet this would look good on your board. Do you want it?" *sly grin* "BO, you know I can't take anymore fabric! I have some sort of addiction, and it would be a real problem if I took anymore swatches with me." He of course asked if I was sure, and I told him I was, which caused him to say "Okay then... You know what? I really like it myself. I think i'll take it!" I looked at him and said, "BO! How dare you take my fabric!", and we both cracked up, and hes all "You said you didn't want it! Look, do you want it?!" "No... I kid, I kid...", I said and, we started rummaging some more. We talked about how he was tempted to take the whole book of fabric swatches, and how I nearly took a whole one with our last set of boards. Every blue or gold fabric swatch he saw caused him to ask if I wanted it. It eventually felt like he was looking more for me than he was for himself, lol.
I told him about my uncle, and explained to him that I looked like crap because I had been crying a lot (I actually looked damn good yesterday, especially considering the fact that I really had been crying a lot), to give him an excuse to look at me. He glanced over at me, but didn't stare, and sense I wasn't looking directly at him, I couldn't read his expression. He told me he was sorry, and asked what happened to my uncle. I explained that no one really knew for sure, which blew his mind. Then he found this other piece of fabric which was really nice, but looked like it would put a lot of lint particles on your clothes after sitting on it. I tried to explain this to him, but I made absolutely no sense, which made him tell me that he didn't understand me, and ultimately had him laughing his butt off at me trying to tell him what I thought. So I of course yell at him, and hes like "I'm sorry, but you would have laughed too!" So, we were both in the back of the classroom cracking up, which made me feel a million times better than I did earlier. Once I finally made sense, he agreed with me, and put the fabric back. He cut out EVERYTHING I said I liked. By this time, my mom had pulled up to take me home, and I told BO that he wasn't allowed to use my scissors ever again because he laughed at me. When I left out, he was at the cutting board, preparing to cut out his swatches with it. We looked at each other, and without saying a word, burst into laughter.
Long story short, I really think we're going to end up exchanging numbers before the semester is over. We've just been really friendly with one another lately, and it just makes sense at this point.
2009,
