Daddy's Back
Ok so it's been incredibly too long since I've had a post in here. It's time to update on my life's status.
Probably, first and foremost, I GOT A JOB!! It wasn't the direction I saw my life taking, but I think I'm really going to enjoy it. I accepted the position to be in the manager training program for the Nebraska Book Co. So what I'll basically be doing is managaing college bookstores. I've worked for College Book Warehouse for almost 3.5 years now, and I never thought it would be something I would do forever; but the last couple of weeks have shown me a different side of the store and I really like it. I also got offered a position to teach for Jefferson Co., but I feel like I have a lot of growing up to do before I can be a good role model for high school kids. I just feel like I have a bit more partying left in me before I'm ready to settle down down. At work right now, I'm training with Joe who is the textbook manager of our store. Before I got manager duties, I was lovingly called Joe's bitch because I helped him out with all of his duties. I'm learning all about ordering books and getting book orders and setting up the store and such. It's a lot of work that I never quite realized he did.
This weekend, I ventured to Lexington with Jake and Whitney. My Saturday began with a walk around the park with Jake. It was such a beautiful day and we were in the mood to boy watch, so we went. Then, we went to Abercrombie where I got the hottest shirt ever. It is blue and it says "I'd Do Me" which of course I wore out to the bar. While I was in the changing room, Whitney called and asked us to come get her cause she was psuedo-running away from home. So we got her, then went and had sushi. It was the first time I had gotten a non-roll sushi. I had salmon, crab, and tuna. I have to say it was darn good. Kelly turned me into a beer drinking, sushi eating gay man; and I have to say I love it. After dinner, we all got ready and then hit the town in Lex. While we were there, I was talking to a guy who I thought to be pretty cute; but I got a tip that he had herpes, so I took that as a sign as to maybe let that fish go back in the pond. Let us not forget that herpes, like diamonds, are forever. Moving on the evening (and putting down lots more liquor), I ran into Clayton and Jimmy - both of whom I had been out with before last summer. Well, of course, drunk ass me spills his guts to Clayton (metaphorically anyways) and Clayton apologized for everything that happened last year and we are possibly going to dinner tomorrow. With maybe a little kissing happening. Then, later on, I run into Jimmy who basically pinned me up against the wall. I didn't want to be rude, so I kissed him too. Well, ok, and we'r egoing to dinner on Friday. I've been kind of on a roll with the dating thing here lately. Last Sunday, I had a date with this guy named Eric who I met at Connections during the Halloween celebration. He's kind of short, but he's very nice. However, I'm just not sure if I see anything happening between us, but if we ever go out again, I'll get a better feel for him I suppose.
It's funny how fast bad times can turn around. This year has definitely been a rollercoaster for me. I started the year in school, loving my new boss, having a boyfriend who I adored, living with the best roommate ever, and loving my friends. Then, I broke up with the dude, started hating my job, quit school, Kelly moved away, and I moved back home where I kind of alienated myself for people. Then, I went through a grey phase where I didn't do much at all. Now, I'm starting the new job, lovin it, getting back out there on the dating scene, loving life again, and will hopefully be able to move out soon. 2005 has been full of its ups and downs, and I can honestly say I'm welcoming 2006 with open arms.
