| | Spring breaaaaak 08Spring break is well underway now.
It started thursday night at 5pm when i got out of my 4th midterm (3rd one of the day). Most everyone was either studying for a friday midterm if they had one or making some sort of progress on getting their spring break going, so i opted to hit a concert that was going on at the local theatre. This really good band called Punch Brother was playing (i read about it in the paper earlier that day), so i went. It was excellent. Bluegrass(/"newgrass") is something you dont often hear. I like it because there's something so natural and wholesome about it. Every now and then bits of songs would give me the feeling i can only describe as the tingle on top of a fresh glass of coca cola. I feel it at the top of my head and i am completely entranced by it. Anyway, bluegrass is not for everyone, but I definitely loved every second, and it was worth every penny.
Stuck around Btown until Saturday. Boy number 1 came over and ... oh wait. Boy update:
Boy #1. Things are still going strong. Until i left saturday, him and i had slept next to each other every night together except one for 13 consecutive nights, which makes him the current record holder for anyone sleeping with me - both in consecutive and total nights. Friday night we made pico de gallo, drank mexican beer, and played guitar hero III until 6 am. Very nice and laid back. Saturday I cooked Mojito Chicken (which i had prepped the day before) and we had that for lunch before i packed up and left for Alabama to see my relatives. Boy #1, i feel, has not expressed any interest in anything with "us" happening beyond my graduation. I moreso feel like i'm his "for now"... We don't really
talk about anything meaningful, but he still tells me good night and
lets me be part of his daily routine. We dont have sex (hope that doesnt surprise
you), and i don't plan to, but we havent talked about that either. He's more like a best friend in the making - except add a little passion in there. We hang out a lot, and have a great time, but I
need someone to not be okay with me not being in their life. And when i
leave, i'm not okay that when I leave, there won't be a cavernous void in him that can't be filled. Maybe i'm selfish. (Probably.) Boy #2's large roommate bitched me out on AIM for being a dick. I was apathetic, but conceded to her "recommendation" that i dont talk to him anymore. After getting several pleading texts from him begging to answer when he calls, Boy #2 dropped the "I love you" via text. Bye Boy #2. Boy #3 i think is completely gone. Havent heard from him lately, so i guess not talking to him or initiating any sort of conversation /hangout sent the message that i'm not into him. Maybe I'll go to the optometry school (where he works) for some glasses and do some dangling. I'm an asshole. But i need glasses. I have none (only contacts that i could probably share with Mr Magoo). I dont particularly DISlike him, it's just that he just comes up lacking among the others in the "magic" department.
Alabama's good. I came down primarily because i heard my grandpa wasnt doing so hot - that he's going through some sort of dementia. I prefer this to Alzheimer's because he remembers people and everything, except
he repeats some things... maybe that's just getting old and telling
stories to too many people that you forget who you share things with
really quickly. It's like his brain is full, and he can't intake new information. Also he apparently dreams things of thinks about
things that didnt happen, and believes they did, and can talk about
them in great detail. Today he talked to me about a painting above
their couch of some mountain scene complete with waterfall and cabin.
He said he went there and that it was in colorado, and he traced with
his finger the trail they took through the mountain pass. Then my
grandma chimed in something that validated his statement, so i guess he
could have actually been there, but now i just tend to be on guard that
he might be spewing bs. Not sure how much longer i'm staying, but i'm thinking head back to IU on wednesday or thursday. I'm pretty much free to do anything for the rest of break, although i
do have a shitton of work to do on a project in order to have some sort
of progress report (due) next tuesday.
There might be more soon (what? Boy #4? ... shhh), but i figure this is long enough.
