Updates
- Despite wanting "take it slow", Will has been texting me incessantly today. I don't want him to put me on a pedastal and try to make me the answer to all his needs the way he seems to be doing. He's getting way attached to me really fast, and honestly I get a little weary of clinging. I'm a person who likes my alone time. When I'm in a relationship, there is a certain amount of time when I absolutely want you around and want to do things with you and want to be affectionate with you, but I need to have a certain slot of "Jesse time" in my days. I still don't know exactly what our "status" is. Will insists adamantly and at length last night that he wants to go slow, but he's treating me like his boyfriend.
- Dustin thinks any possibility of a relationship with Will needs to be taken extremely slowly, given his emotional issues and virtual lack of self-esteem.
- Robbie apparently really likes Greg, as in, more than his string of playthings who've gone through his bedroom door. Alice is away all night more and more often (although any time spent with Chris lately seems to end with her tearfully complaining to Robbie about what an ass Chris is), and Dustin suspects she's trying to finagle a move into Chris' mom's house. If she does, Robbie already has Greg lined up to move in in her place, presumably with Will in tow. Greg would sleep with Robbie, and Will would take the futon (and maybe sometimes stay with me in my room, or with Dustin). Dustin and I both know Robbie really likes Greg, but we also both think him moving in and sleeping in Robbie's bed every night is kind of leaping straight over several steps of relationship development, and are curious whether Robbie can be content with going to bed with the same person every night.
- I was jealous of the "idea" of Greg, but I rather like the actual person. I wish him and Robbie well. Robbie is a very private person, and not much into public displays of affection, but I notice small little "closeness" moments between he and Greg. Greg calls him "hun".
- It was lightning ridiculously tonight. Not raining, just lightning its ass off. Strange how I used to practically hide under my bed during lightning storms, and now I don't bat an eyelash.
- Went to the laundromat with Robbie and Dustin for the first time and washed a small pile of the clothes that most needed it, mostly my work clothes and a few pairs of socks, underwear, and my more-frequently worn "casual around the house" shirts.
- Day off tomorrow. Thank God. Though I really need my job more than ever now. Though my pay this week should be pretty good, considering I work five days (one utility guy is on vacation, and I picked up another day to cover for another utility guy's prom), and worked twice as long as I was scheduled to on Monday. I've realized over the last couple days how much I really want to stay here. It's far from perfect, but I like it.
- Two other bills: electric $15 and AT&T phone service $25, due May 15th. Robbie and his post-it notes. I'll get my nice paycheck the day before.
- Mark has deleted his Facebook profile (either that, or blocked me from viewing it), and has not responded to my texts, attempts to call him, or Tweets for the last three days. But apparently two of Alice's friends ran into him at the theater on the opening night of Thor (which I really enjoyed, read my review here: http://www.angelfire.com/blog/jester_1/thor.html), and apparently he was bad-mouthing Alice and Chris to them.
Had a half-pound of macaroni salad and two slim-jims and a Coke for lunch on my break. Came home and split a delivered pizza with Dustin (Dustin and Robbie are off from AT&T on Tuesdays, but Robbie was at his other job at Starbuck's). Also ate the last two pieces of the lemon pie Mom made for my birthday, and had my late evening snack of graham crackers, Cheez-its, chocolate bits, and milk. Need to remember to buy apples.
Sometimes I should get a Subway sandwich, since they can cover both lunch and supper for $5.
Running low on Kix, remember to get another box at Marc's (which I pass every time I go to and from work). Get a big box, as it's cheaper in the long run. I've been drinking pop like it's water lately, and over the past couple days I've been trying to work more milk in. I've even put it in my cereal a couple times, which I usually never do. Also got Sunny-D for breakfast.
Next time I go to my parents' house, I need to get my shorts.
Dustin is setting up a blog for me to transfer my hundreds of movie reviews, where they will hopefully be more visible and get seen by more people.
