Lots o' stuff
Thursday 2/16, Peggy left for NZ today so I’ll be on my own for 3 weeks. After work I finished patching up the chipped up part of my new wall then picked up a few things in my room and climbed into bed to warm up. I finally figured out where that $4.18 is that’s wrong in my checkbook and it goes all the way back to October…whoops. Zeph called and I talked with him for awhile about dinner, hiking and crampons. Yeah, weird word, I know. I watched a whole bunch of ATM Season 2 cause it was on VH1. Susan left for the evening after we chatted for a long time, then I talked briefly to B and went to bed.
Wednesday 2/15, I just laid in bed all night, nothing exciting.
Tuesday 2/14, B and my first Valentine’s Day. It was good. After work I went home and got ready and out the door by 6:20 and made it to his house by about 6:45, we had awhile before our 8:15 reservation at Café Campagne. He looked so dapper all dressed up and Chrystol and Schuyler were hottin and hollerin when I came in, they’re so cute, they were making their dinner together: a heart pizza. Chrystol took some pictures of us like we were going to a school dance or something, it was fun. B got me some very pretty flowers and he opened his gift and liked it I believe. We hung out for awhile in his room then went back downstairs to talk with Jason, Schuyler and Chrystol. The topic turned to custom pizzas and they’re going to open a pizzeria where you can request the pizza be shaped like anything you want and Schuyler will be known as the Pizza Baron or something, or as Le Fromage and Chrystol will be Le Grand Fromage. We came up with some hilarious ideas, the delivery hummer, the red carpet and trumpets sounding as pizza is delivered, the pizza being delivered on a pillow rather than in one of those tacky red cases, delivery person in a suit of armor and many other ridiculous concepts. Finally at about 7:45 we headed out and found a decent parking space and got our table early. Dinner was fabulous and Jason totally hooked us up with our bill, so that was really nice and everything was sooo good. We skipped dessert and headed back to B’s then onto my house where we can all guess what happened before going to bed.
Monday 2/13, I went to the mall after work to pick up B’s Valentine’s Day present. I tried on my outfit and hung out for the rest of the evening. Not much to report.
Sunday 2/12, movie madness continued when I got up. Jess was still sleeping but because it was 10:30 and I couldn’t sleep anymore, I got up and Jack was watching “The Island”. It was a decent movie but didn’t leave me feeling very good. I love Scarlett Johansson and Ewan McGregor, but I can’t handle all of the action and suspense. I managed to survive it, then Day made an enormous breakfast with like 15 waffles, though I only ate one and so did Jess so there was a ton left over not to mention the eggs and bacon. As we were eating breakfast Jess put “The Prince and Me” on, surprisingly, this was probably the best of the 4 movies. I know, I was shocked too. After that was over I got dressed and packed up my stuff and said good bye. I’m glad Jess is going to be back in April, with Bora in tow so we’re planning on hanging out as a foursome. I headed home where I showered and cleaned a little bit before B got there then we had to go to my Mom’s for dinner. She made this excellent marinated chicken with all of these herbs and yummy stuff with rice and veggies. For dessert it was chocolate chip cookies. We couldn’t stick around for too long cause B had to get up early in the morning, so we left and made out at home then watched Desperate Housewives.
Saturday 2/11, the phone rang way too early for how late we went to bed (actual time around 8:00) and the culprit was Day, Jess’ Mom. We laid in bed for a long time talking about how Jess had gotten sick in the middle of the night from her drinks and the bean dip, luckily I hate bean dip so I avoided getting sick too. We finally got up around 10:00 and raided Grandma’s pantry before hitting the road. We stopped at her Mom’s house and then took her car up to her Dad’s house so she could change and get clothes. We chatted with her Dad for awhile then went to Haagen’s for the things her Mom wanted us to pick up. We also picked up some delicious warm bread and other organic items for the day’s festivities. We got back to her Mom’s house and we ate the rest of the bread and some apple chips then watched “The Wedding Date” it had the potential to be good, but just wasn’t very. Glad I didn’t see it in the theaters. After that we were standing outside while Jess talked to Bora and I was chatting with Day when Billy came walking across the beach and up to talk to us. It was quite painful, he’s gained quite a bit of weight and just seems really…weird. I think it must be the meds he’s on, if not, I don’t know what the hell is wrong with him. Jessica thinks he might be kind of retarded now, and not in a mean way, really just like, out of it. After that we went on a walk up to see the house for sale up the street ($700,000) then along the little trail to the park where Jessica told the ducks what to do and they listened. When we got back to the house it was time for the large turkey dinner that Day had slaved away on. Jack kept making the weirdest comments but everyone just laughed because they were so random and inappropriate. We ate dinner while watching “Must Love Dogs” and again, it had some potential, but was just kind of not that good. Oh well, after dinner Jack got the chocolates out and I showed everyone MySpace and Day made me some very good hot chocolate. Day wasn’t feeling good so her and Jack left for the night and Jess and I busted out the old videos from high school. First was the Mexico video (it was hard to watch cause, boy, I was packing around the pounds at that point, not a pretty sight) then some random party videos and finally the party at Logan’s which was pretty brief and just kind of snippet-y but fun anyway. We watched those damn videos for like 2 hours. There was one part where Matt is holding the camera and to Jessica “Show me that ass” so she lifts up the back of her shirt to show him her shorts-covering ass and he’s like “Hell yeah!” and we just laughed for like 10 minutes, it was so Everett, and so high school and so hilarious. The other funny part is how he was driving her car around everywhere and he was 14. After all of those laughs it was time for bed.
Friday 2/10, After work I headed straight for B’s house, though he wasn’t there, I chatted with Schuyler until he arrived. We were just going to hang out for the evening because he had to get up early to go to work on Sat and I was going to spend the week with Jessica. B made us raviolis but I was craving more so we went to QFC and I got a little pack of Hostess donuts. I also bought the homeless man standing outside the store a couple of bananas, I didn’t know what else to get him (next time I think I’ll buy a sandwich). I ate all of those damn little donuts and felt very very sick as a result. The toilet and the shower had some issues and there was nasty stuff coming into the tub, I didn’t look, but everyone was thoroughly grossed out. We watched some of the opening ceremony for the Olympics until it was time for B to go to bed then Jessica called and I headed up to her Grandma’s house. I got there just as she was getting into the house (this time there was a key for us) and we decided to head to the Azteca for some cocktails and our fill of Everett men. Jess had a few drinks, I had a virgin strawberry daiquiri, and we ate way too many chips. I was still feeling sick from my donut debacle, but did that stop me from eating too many chips and feeling gassy? No, it did not. We went home when they closed, I think it was 12:00. As we’re going into the house, Jessica’s grandma pulls up, and Jessica’s like “Grandma, what are you doing just getting home” and I piped in “Get off my ass, can’t a woman have her secrets?”, she thought that was funny. They had been playing bingo earlier in the evening then her and her friends went to Walmart, where we’re convinced they were cruising for men. We’ll never know for sure, but the fact that Grandma Marie got home later than us is slightly suspicious. We ended up staying up late talking to her Grandma until 2:30 then finally going to bed in the twin room downstairs.
