hmmm
So Columbia and Magenta are supposed to be merrily playing in their
cage right now, but they aren't. On wednesday, J and I went to dollar
drinks and then Charlies. We had a blast (of course) but on the way
home J made me realize I still have no job and no real prospects for a
way to pay my summer rent. Needless to say, I got a bit depressed
(especially in my drunken state). This lead to me slowly, sadly walking
down foster to our apartment. Somehow, in that sad walking, I fell and
twisted my ankle... leading to even sadder walking. I've been
practically hoping around for a few days now, but my ankle is beginning
to feel better. This twisted ankle did prevent me from driving downtown
this afternoon to interview at the Shedd and pick up my babies. I will
just have to wait until next week for rats. Honestly...
I might have been able to make it if I hadn't been so down. But in addition to the ankle, John was kinda freaking out about the new reality of our relationship and I was a bit down about that as well. I feel a little badly about not being more open with him about my feelings toward him in the past, but more badly because I can't be there when he's freaking out right now. I would feel better if I could physically be with him while he's freaking out about stuff... I almost drove down to isu. It's really hard to want to be there to attempt to comfort him in some way but not be able to leave Evanston. And then part of me was just a little down because he wasn't doing well... bleh caring about people ; ) He seemed a tad better today, however.
But now, both me and my ankle are feeling better. I can wait a week to pick up my rats. The turntable I bought for Mattie works (I tried it out this afternoon) and I'm really excited to give it to him on Sunday.
