Better I should know...

I didn't see Jeremy this morning.
That really shouldn't be the first sentence here. I mean, I have actual news, an actual life, cool stuff going on here.
But I didn't see Jeremy.
I don't like not seeing him for long periods of time. It bugs me. Plus it makes me kind of restless, and when Jeremy isn't there and Mike is, the convenience factor matters.
Erika invited me to a concert this morning with her and Shannon. I've never actually listened to more than one of the band's songs, but I haven't been to a concert since Britney Spears, which is quite embarrassing, so I really just want to go to a concert, any concert will do.
So anyway, Ericka invited me to go with her and Shannon. I agreed and called Mom to ask her tobring me the money, because Shannon was going to buy the tickets today (I love how everyone invites me to do everythingat the last possible minute. Suppose I had plans, what then?). Anyway, after I already agree and call for the money she tells me that Mike was actually supposed to go with her, but apparently he bought his ticket without her and invited someone else. (I know, what a jackass, right?) So she and Shannon were going and they were inviting me. Well, poohie on Mike, I would go. I kind of enjoyed having plans that didn't involve Mike, actually. It was a nice feeling,
So then Mike got there (remember, I got to work with Mike from 4-7) and they were talking about the concert and apparently she said something about it, and he said, "I thought we were going together." So somehow Mike got reinvited. Only Mike already invited another girl (but he told Erika he was going with a couple of guys from work, if I'm not mistaken).
Awkward.
Not that Mike said anything. I got to watch Mike squirm, and let me tell you I enjoyed it. Probably a little too much. I may dream about it tonight. (I think I secretly hate Mike more than I love him.)
Anyway, so Erika goes, "You know Sam's going, right?"
So of course he goes, "Awesome," and gives me a high five and then holds my hand for a few seconds, but I can't help noticing he's never invited me to a concert.
Anyway. So then they were talking about travel arrangements, and Mike goes, "Do you really think I can cram five people in my car?"
And Erika goes, "Five?" in that tone.
Mike pauses for a moment and then goes, "Four people."
So I don't know what Mikey Jack's going to do. He's in a pickle, he is. That's what happens when you're a man-whore. You get in lots of pickles. A whole jar of pickles.
I almost feel bad for Arianne, but she can't be that stupid, she has to know how Mike is.
I honestly do think that my actual feelings for Mike are feelings of dislike. I normally don't dislike people, and it's funny because in the beginning I liked him even though I normally didn't like people. It has reversed.
Oh well.
Mike made me swear today.
I said, "People suck," and Erika thought I said a word that rhymes with suck, and she gaped at me and goes, "Did you just swear?"
Sabrina started laughing, because the idea of me swearing is so proposterous. Then Mike hears and he's like, "Aww, you swore?" So he hugs me, because this would make him proud, but I go, "No, I said people suck. Erika thought I said something else."
He's like, "It's alright, you can swear. I swear all the time. I'll do it now." Then he said the f-word and goes, "See? It's easy."
Anyway, so I walked over to the drive-thru window with him and he was eating his pizza and he said something about my swearing, and I said, "Actually I did swear at work the other day."
And he's like, "Really? Say it for me."
"No."
"What did you say?" he asks.
"The sh-word," I reply with a smile.
"Just say it. Say it for me. Please?"
"No."
"Whisper it to me."
"No," I replied.
"Please? I want to hear you swear."
"No, I'll just sound stupid."
"No, it would be so adorable to hear you swear."
"No, it would be stupid," I disagreed.
"If you love me you will say it." There was a pause here in which I did not swear long enough for him to go on, "If you like me at all, even a little bit, you will say it for me."
I would have said it if he would have left it at "If you love me," but I wasn't about to rush myself. So after a couple seconds I go, "Fine. Shit."
So of course he was happy.
Also, I have a remark to make about when Josh got there.
I so wanted to work with Mike and Josh at the same time.
I know I said no more games, but I wasn't playing games, I was being nice, and certainly no nicer than Mike was to Nina the day I said he was a bitch.
When Josh got there I gifted him with a big smile, so he smiled back and then he took off his hat as he walked in and I saw he had changed his hair. So after greeting him with another charmingsmile, I'm like, "Did you change your hair?"
So he says yeah, I say... something, and I give him the smiling and basically treating him how I treated Mike in the beginning. (I've never been so friendly to Josh; I almost felt guilty.) So after our small but warm exchange I glance over at Mike tosee if this affected him at all or if I just wasted my time, but much to my pleasure Mike sort of gave Josh's back a dirty look. Shortly thereafter Mike decided he needed a smoke break, and Josh and Joe were back in the break room, so Mike hauls me back there, and offers me a cigarette (despite knowing I'm never going to accept) and then Joe says something about me being 18 and Mike grabs onto it and says something along the lines of, "Yeah, and guess how she ushered that year in? She went to the porn store with me."
I just smiled, because I knew what he was doing and I had to be cavalier about it, because Joe and Josh were both staring at me in a slight state of shock. And of course he mentions only that I went with him, not that it was a whole group.
Then a little while later I walked back to put a rack away or something and I stopped to say something to Josh, and when I turned around --boom!-- there was Mike. I nearly walked into him. So he hugs me, wraps an arm around me, basically he puts his paws all over me and does what probably amounts to peeing on my foot and growling at Josh.
I have to admit, it was cute.
But he really has absolutely no claim to me.
If I want Josh's paws on me (which I don't, but still) it is completely within my rights.
I just thought it was cute the way he got all not-Mike when the Josh thing happened.
And he just loves telling people he took me to the porn store.
And Josh doesn't know me very well, and I noticed after Mike said that Josh smiled at me differently, only stepped back to let me walk a little too close to him instead of moving out of the way.
Dumb Mike, soiling my reputation just to soothe his ego.
Anyway.
I have to go now.
