Why is it?Thursday, May 7, 11amJust when it seemed like Connie finally found someone who made her happy, Teresa comes up and pulls this 'just friends' bit. Why do some people have such a hard time finding the right person? Jev practically fell into my lap. Yes, it was a long time before I found him, but unlike so many, I didn't have to kiss a bunch of frogs to find him. I slept until about 8:30 this morning, and when I woke up, I sat up for a minute to give my body a chance to adjust to being upright before I headed to the bathroom to do my morning thing. I don't know if Connie had been out in the hall to see if I was up, or just passing by, but she came in and sat down and started talking about Teresa and what she'd had to say last night. I really didn't know what to say, so I just nodded or shrugged at the appropriate times. I made the mistake of saying what I thought she should do when she was going through things with Emma, and I think it's just better if I keep my mouth shut. She has her own ideas of how people think, and how they should act. They may be right in some respects, but I don't see things the same, and I'm not going to try to make her see things my way. Jev and I see things differently at times, too -- the whole religion and Christianity thing proved that -- but in the end whe can usually find some sort of compromise.  I'm just lying here on the bed, doodling in the margins of my notebook, and trying to decide what to do. Connie had said something about making our glycerine soaps today, but here it is, 11:30 or so, and she wants to go to Sam's Club at 1 so she can say hi to Teresa. I don't think we'll be making any soap soon. Last night, while Connie was at work, I cleaned up her kitchen a bit. Since I didn't know when she'd be home, I set everything up to make dinner when she got back, and we had cheese ravioli with tomato sauce. Nothing fancy, but better than no dinner, or just junk food. It was about 10:30 or so when we were done, and I cleaned up the kitchen a bit then headed off to bed, knowing Teresa would call soon. I did take a break from cleaning around eight and gave Jev a call. He said he missed the dorm, where he could have his computer and be online, and that he might go up to the high school today, to visit his teachers, and also hop online and check his mail from there. I wonder if I might have mail from him when I check it next. If he does get up to the school, I wouldn't be surprised. Come Monday, I should be back at home, and he'll be at work. Once they get his network password or what have you set up, he can telnet to IRC and chat when he has a little free time. I get the feeling that while I'm not there visiting, he'll probably stay late at work a lot. *chuckle* Thirty days until I go see him again... *bounce* After my June - July visit, I'm not too sure when we'll see each other again. If we have another late, mild winter, maybe he can come out over break then, but if not, spring break for sure. After spring break, it's just a couple more months until graduation day. He wants me there, and I really would like to be at his graduation ceremony, but we'll have to work on those arrangements a little bit down the line. I think if we do get married next summer, it won't be any big ceremony. I don't really want that, and when it comes down to it, it's just a piece of paper that makes official what we already know in our hearts. A big ceremony or a little, private wedding won't change that any. || Home | Journal Index ||
