half way between here and there
i got laid off on thursday.
i am going to be 22 and on unemployment.
never saw that one coming...
friday my mom woke me up (i took the day off work) to inform me that my dad was in the ER.
happy birthday, mom!
he's still there, and its now monday. he's got ulcers. lots of them. and they were bleeding, which caused him to throw up blood. gallons.
guess its time to give up "grandpa's old cough syrup."
saturday night was the housewarming party at the boys' new house.
fun. fun. fun!!!
nick was there and oh-so-cute!
he spotted me almost immediately and came over to give me a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
got really drunk.
talked to The Crush (yes, we had THE talk).
nothing was really established. i told him i like him and that im going crazy trying to figure out what he thinks about me. he said "obviously you are a good looking girl, and you have a great personality..." BUT its weird, partially b/c of the whole Erik thing, also b/c James' old g/f started dating his best friend the day after they broke up, and now noone talks to or about them. if either of their names are mentioned while hanging out, you have to drink. i told tyler i dont want to become a "party foul" either. he does realize that this situation is completely different from that one, tho... we actually have people trying to get "us" to work out... he recognized the fact that even his sister is pushing for it... doesnt that mean ANYTHING?? so in the end he never said wether or not he likes me. as we were walking back into the house he put his arm around me and said "if it helps at all, there were 2 times just then that i really wanted to kiss you, but im sick, and you dont want this" WHA...??? he could tell i was baffled so he said "here, how's this..." and kissed me on the forehead. that doesnt settle anything.
nick finally got my number... i gave him shit about not getting it that night at Ollie's (but only after he actually got it... its not like i pressured him into getting it!)
everyone proceeded to drink and get retarded. we sang and danced and acted like idiots till about 4am.
nick came over and spent the night...
now, i know what you're thinking, but NOTHING happened. at all. i seriously havent even kissed the kid! he was too drunk to drive all the way home, and didnt want to stay at the party. so he came to my house, puked his guts out, then passed out in bed with me.
when we woke up in the morning he informed me that he was taking me out to lunch later in the afternoon.
fine by me!!
we met up w/ co and ry at applebees, then went back to their house and watched a movie.
nick had to leave early b/c he had to work, and i havent heard from him since... it hasnt even been 24 hours yet, so im not buggin...
alls i know is that he better call me sometime this week before he goes to arizona for a frisbee tournament!
so... in summation:
got fired from job.
mom had sucky bday.
dad is in hospital.
spilled my guts to The Crush.
spent the night with nick.
dirty slut.skank.whore.
whatev...
today, The Crush and james came to my house for lunch.
i thought things might be awkward between The Crush and i, but they werent, surprisingly.
everything was hunky-dory fine.
except that now i wonder if he thinks "this idiot girl likes me" everytime he looks at me. or if he is going to try to be careful w/ his actions so as not to confuse me... no more flirty funness. or if maybe he'll work up the nerve to actually kiss me one of these days.
if he doesnt get his butt in gear soon Nick is going to pass him up and win the race.
i cant wait around forever!
