Sunday 7/2, Got up around 8:30, went to Costco for gas, then to the carwash and finally to the store for some light shopping. I got ready for brunch when I got home and took off at 10, arriving at the same time as Mom, Grandma and Grandpa. I had a delicious Garden Omelet and pastry goodies from the buffet. On my way home I decided I wanted to go to the park and read while getting some sun so I ran home, grabbed my stuff and headed back out to the Bellevue Downtown park. I read for a while in the sun then called Mom (Kristen) and we talked for a long time then Grandma Dixie and finally packed up and went home. I got sunburned on my lower back where I didn’t apply sunscreen but I’ve been lotioning it up so it doesn’t look so bad now. I showered and did my hair and then laid around waiting for Kassie to call and tell me when she’d be back from Whidbey. Finally we had all of our plans laid out so I left the house at 7:00 to go over to Chrystol’s to pick her up. I went through the house to the back door and I saw B first and he looked at me then looked away, but no one else saw me so he looked up again and said hi, then everyone else said hi and Chrystol showed me her garden and gave me a pea and it was crisp, sweet and delicious. I asked B for my key back and he would barely look at me, but Jason was nice enough to ask how I was doing, I said “You know, alright” and we chatted for a second, then he winked at me, but in a “It’s ok about B” kind of way. Went in the house and talked with Schuyler for a bit before C and I were ready to go. Got to Kassie’s and she was getting ready and we were soon out the door and on our way to Discovery Park for our photo shoot. We had a lot of fun and C is really good at giving direction. It was a beautiful evening and the sun was setting as we were getting the last photos taken. We got a roll of black and white and one of color, then a couple of other ones on some camera called a Holga or something. It was 9:30 by the time we were on our way back to Kassie’s then I drove C home and we talked in the car for a little while after we pulled up. She’s so fun and I love hanging out with her so I look forward to getting to do that more in the near future.

Saturday 7/1, I woke up around 8:00 for Kay-See’s and my hike and was getting ready when she knocked on my door at 8:15, 15 minutes early! But that’s good because we got a head start. There was a lack of cute guys again, but we attributed it to the holiday weekend. It was gorgeous day and we were enjoying soaking up the rays and chatting at the top until some guys started noisily eating plums behind Kay-See so we packed it up and headed back down. We were both exhausted from the climb up which made us wobbly on the way back down, but we made it and on the way home talked about XXX Burger and having a movie night sometime soon. I showered and called Grandma to see what she was up to and went over to visit. I stayed until about 3:00 and left with some goodies and a brunch date for the next day. I laid around for the rest of the day and then as the evening progressed I got very sad about B again and spent the evening crying and looking for therapists online. It was a great evening, let me tell you. I read some great articles in one of the magazines that Susan gave me and did some underlining and note taking on things that related to how I feel about B and the end of our relationship.

Friday 6/30, I got off of work at 3:00 so I went home and relaxed and it felt wonderful. I ate way too much for dinner so I went on my short walk and just took my time. I showered and got ready to go to Comeback and noticed that Tennis Pro posted a bulletin that they were playing at the Comet so I called Kassie and found out she was going to be there so I decided I’d like to go too. Susan and I parked in our usual place for Comeback and we walked to the Comet and found out they weren’t going on until 12:15 and it was only like 11:00 so we walked back over to Chop Suey where the bouncer told me “Hold on there Turbo” when I tried to go in without my stamp. When we got inside it was empty but we hung out and people watched nonetheless. There were a couple of great characters, one guy that looked like a short George Michael wearing a speedo and sunglasses, the other was wearing a puffy white shirt and was dancing all over the place and flailing his arms around. It was endlessly entertaining. Eli showed up and he kissed my hand and eventually when DJ Porq came out we started dancing and Susan and I joked about just walking up to him and going “Meoow” because he was wearing a cat shirt. He was so cute but I was pretty sure he was gay, so finally when Thomas showed up Susan asked him and he was like “Gay. Oh yeah, he’s gay” Dammit! That’s ok, I was going to be seeing Sean soon enough. So we danced some more and Thomas danced with us for a while so that’s always fun, they DJ Fucking in the Streets came back on and played the Rod Stewart classic “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy?” and we danced our asses off. It was then time to leave so we walked back over to the Comet and got in for free, found Kassie and settled into the show. It was pretty fun and Sean looked totally hot on the drums and finally took his sunglasses off halfway through the show. Kassie’s massage friend Dave was like “What are the chances that you’re here?! Were you just in the neighborhood?” and then later spilled beer all over me. He was dancing around hilariously and then one of the other band guys was like “Everybody have a drink” and this girl goes “I would but some drunk guy spilled it” and the band guy goes, “Yes but let’s face it, the drunk guy did have the best dance moves”. After the show I got a hug from Sean and told him good show then him, Kassie, Susan and I ended up outside chatting for a little while and he said he was bummed that he stepped on his glasses as he was exiting the show and then Kassie was like “So what, just go back to 7-11 and get another pair” and he goes “Thanks, no, actually I got them from Urban Outfitters”. It was funny. Then he said something about our stomachs that made us laugh and I told him he was cutting my hair on Monday and I’m pretty sure he’s really excited. Or not so much. Susan and I walked back to the car and drove home.
