jackie, leslie and eric, ben again....not bennigans.
i got off work, went home and changed, then i went up to deangelos to eat with leslie between shifts. mmm i treated myself and got a pepperoni calzone no ricotta on wheat, easy on the mozz. LESLIE added smoked mozz and when i tell you that this calzone was perfect...it was PERFECT. so fucking good. i only got a small marinara to eat with it cause i thought i'd only eat half. fuck that, i got a second marinara (thanks kenny!) and put away the whole thing in like 7 minutes. kenny was and leslie were gasping in disbelief. i was hongry, shooo...so that was cool. when we finished eating we went to my car and smoked a bowl. she went back to work, and i went to see JACKIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
jackie was trashed (maybe not so much, she is just silly) when i got there, and we went to gretchen's. man...i miss jackie so much. i had to leave after about an hour to go see victoria before she left, so i didn't get enough time with jackie. but it was cool having us together, jackie, gretchen, and me, for a little while. :) i miss the way jackie's mind works. she's all over the place. from her journal entries it seems like she's become very reserved and levelheaded and almost quiet and introspective. but then i see her in person and she's my same silly exuberant wonderful friend. i loves my jackie. had to leave, went to victoria's going away dinner and it was nice, if a little stuffy at first. me, vic, sofia, and ashleigh were being silly and loud and the adults just kind of looked on and laughed when appropriate. i think it was vic's mom's boyfriend who actually talked the most with us. but i had to leave eventually, so i i thanked her for dinner and said bye to victoria...i know i'll see her again, just because of the way she is. we'll probably bump into each other in some random corner of europe one day. or maybe not so random...AMSTERDAM! hah.
victoria's friendship surprised the hell out of me. when i met matt, he didn't talk about victoria a lot, but the little things he did say (not always bad) were all i knew about her. then a year later, i met her, and i was like okay....can we be friends? is this normal? gradually we spent more time together and i know for a fact if victoria had not put so much into me, i probably would not have put nearly anything into her. i am incredibly glad i got to know her as a person, and not as matt's ex.
when i left victoria's, i tried to meet up with jackie again to no avail. i got a message from gretchen later informing me that jackie was passed out or something, i don't know, i was shitfaced. i ended up going to leslie's house right as she and eric were finishing talking about something important. he apologized for snapping at me earlier, and we got dressed to go out!
went to french quarter daquiris on essen and saw mander for a little while. i had a black widow (shroom tea?) and a shot of petron. then a bowl. then some tramadol. then we got ready to leave and i started texting ben cause i knew he was off work...anyway, i got a drink for the rizzoad and we went back to leslie's for a little while. we weren't there for very long til ben texted me saying i could come over...so i did. i sent him a text that said "werd" as in i was coming over, and he sent one to me correcting my spelling, so i sent him one back that said wherde, etc etc you know..cute playful stuff.
anyway i got there and there's a party going on at the apt next to his. so i walk in and there's a girl on the couch with him, i can't remember her name, but she's watching him play final fantasy 3 and she leaves almost immediately after i got there. i'm still sippin on my black widow when ben offers me a beer, so i decline and smoke a bowl or whatever. he played final fantasy for a while until somehow upright citizens brigade got mentioned and i expressed my love for it. he informed me that he had every episode and my eyes got bigger than seafood platters at deanie's (LAME ANALOGY) and i started freaking out, so he got to a save point and put on ucb. swear to god, we only got up to get beer or use the bathroom. we sat there from about 1am to seriously i shit you not, 6am. 6 o clock in the damn morning. we quoted the shit back and forth, we drank, i smoked, we laughed, we flirted but not too heavily...like he found excuses to touch me and pat my head when i laughed and he sat close to me on the couch but nothing too forward. at 6 he was like "i think it's time to sleep. there's plenty of room in my bed if you want to crash." and crash i did. he gave me some pajama pants and a shirt to sleep in and we got in bed and talked for another hour before drifting off. the sun was up. anyway, we slept. there was no funny stuff in bed. we spooned, but not right up against each other. he didn't put his arm around me. the most i felt was him stroking my foot with his foot. so, the next day i woke up around 1, he was on the couch playing final fantasy again. he said good morning, we shared cigarettes, he told me that brandon peeked his head in ben's room earlier and saw us sleeping and backed out while saying sorry, so..i'm sure brandon thinks we're hooking up unless ben told him otherwise. we drank a little, i watched him play for a few hours until i absolutely had to leave. we hugged, and that was it, i went home. by the way, he named all of his characters after people at work. jammin (that's him), DNO, timmy, and G. he told me G was for G spot.
so i have to leave for class but really quickly--leslie thinks he likes me. i'm thinking about bed, where he didn't try anything but actually was a perfect gentleman--does it mean he just wants to be friends or is he just a nice guy? eric said "he's playing it cool." whatever. i am going to enjoy hanging out with him in the future and hopefully discover even more than we have in common.
class ahoy! then work tonight with deano, but hopefully ben will be there when i get there. werd.
