Sunday 8/26, We woke up around 8 but then fell back asleep and I had horrible dreams about meeting Andrea and Ian ditching me to go open Game Boy games for his birthday, then everyone leaving me behind to be killed by the pod people. Awful. We officially woke up at 9:30 and I told Ian about the dream and we just laid there talking and laughing and snuggling and I kept busting his chops about using lines from movies, even though he wasn't but I kept pretending he was. He put music on and I made fun of him for listening to John Mayer, even though it totally wasn’t, but I was like “Welcome to the real world she said to me” and he was like, “He’s really good now that he’s cut his hair!” We talked about Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson and how he thinks I look like her and unfortunately he said something funny about it that I can't remember. Like how he doesn't think she's that great or something, and I was like "Oh thanks!" and at some point he showed me his fake O face and had me cracking up. I had him in some form of the hot dog hold and challenged him to escape which he did with no problem and had me pinned within seconds. He was like “Are you kidding me with this?” and I was all sassy, like, “Oh just try to get out of it” and then he did like it was his job. I was laughing pretty hard so it wasn't much of a match. Then I was brushing my teeth with only my undies on and out comes the camera again and luckily I covered up my chest just as he snapped one, which totally would have a nudie one in the mirror reflection. I got in the shower and was enjoying the view out the window but when Ian got in he was horrified that I didn't pull the shade and yanked it down and I asked him what the big deal was and that no one could see in. He disagreed, like majorly, and insisted it stay shut. We got all soapy and rubbed up against each other but after a while the smoke detector went off because of the steam so he jumped out and I got out shortly after. We got dressed and he tried to find a shirt for me that he designed but couldn't. We took some pictures that I looked awful in then headed out the door to get some breakfast fare from Grand Central Bakery. We cracked up at the people in there and faces they were making and I said "Just because you have a baby doesn't mean you get to cut in line" when this woman was passing through. Then there was a woman sitting at the table right next to where we were standing in line and Ian claims she was curling her toes...then he said he was going to grab one of the pages of her book and crumple it in ecstasy. Just like the picture in the Survival Guide. I got a blueberry turnover, and Ian insisted on paying because I was his guest (he's so sweet!) and we went outside and ate at a little table out there and talked and laughed through the whole thing. This woman next to us asked if we would save her table and Ian said sure and I said he was good at things like that and he demonstrated by throwing his elbows around. We talked about kissing each other and asked if there was anything either of us would like the other to do differently. As we left the woman thanked us again for watching her stuff and as we got into the car I told him we should invite her to the wedding, and he was like "Are you trying to freak me out?" and I told him he already knew my stance on marriage...and kids, and that I believe that marriage is possible if you find the right person but I do not feel the same way about wanting to procreate. Clearly he's talked about this to some of his friends which I find adorable. On the drive back to his place we talked about the night before and how he didn't want to imply that for my trip to be worth it we have "to make the most of it" and I said I wasn't worried and asked if he was and he said no, so we were all good, and continued making googly eyes at each other. After he picked up his stuff we hit the road back into downtown and I was telling him about what Kassie said about moving to PDX and being willing to have one kid and he was like "Not to freak you out, but before I met you I was thinking about moving to Seattle. Most of my friends have moved and nothing's really tying me down here; Seattle's great, it's got a great music scene, a lot of graphic design opportunities and my brother is probably going to go to school in Vancouver so it's a good mid-point" and I was like "That doesn't freak me out...AT ALL" and then I got all excited and the wheels started spinning in my head so we'll see what happens, but if it did I would be so stoked. Then we sang along to a Biggie / Frank Sinatra mashup and laughed at each other. He wanted to introduce me to his brother and sister so we went by their place so he could pick them up for their family function (sis lives right by a place the Dandy Warhols keep). They're both adorable and seem very nice and their interaction reminds me of how Kassie and Aubrie and I are. We cruised down 23rd looking for the Virgo and Pieces (or whatever it was) restaurant where I was to meet Kay-See and R, found it, and Ian pulled over so I could get my stuff out. We hugged and kissed a little then I was on my way. I couldn't stop smiling as I entered the restaurant and K was eager to hear all about my night and morning so I started filling them in and ate a donut they had leftover then ended up finishing R's eggs benedict which was really good. I just grinned all through breakfast and gushed about Ian then about 15 minutes later I got a text and R was like "I bet it's going to say "I miss you already"" and it TOTALLY DID. So I wrote something back and we ended up trading ooey gooey texts back and forth for the rest of the day. I like him so much. We eventually headed out and on our way back home and I fell asleep before too long and when I woke up K told me that I was funny and had been smiling in my sleep, which sounded about right because I couldn't stop smiling and blabbing about Ian since we'd parted. We stopped at a rest stop and when R got out of the car I filled her in on the details then we started talking about how hot it is when he holds my hands above my head and she agreed then R was like "Really? I don't get it" and I was like "You don't have to, just know that it's HOT. It's a control thing" Every time she'd turn around I'd be smiling so finally when we were a little north of Olympia she goes "I think we should get Karrah's mind off Ian for 10 minutes and stop and get a blizzard" and I was like "Don't make me choose!" but we stopped anyway and I got a mint Oreo that was really good and certainly did get my mind off him for a few minutes and then it was back to day dreaming. It took us quite a while to make it up but we finally arrived at K's around 5 or so. I headed home and fell asleep almost immediately for a little over an hour then started to go back to sleep again, but made myself get up and start painting the bathrooms. I talked to Eliso and told her about the weekend and we made plans to get together later in the week, then I talked to Susan and gave her FULL details about the weekend while painting then eventually got off that call too. I showered and blogged and read some Blind Assassin and went to bed by about 11:30. What a fantastic weekend.
Saturday 8/25, I was up pretty early to get shiz done before leaving to go to Portland. I got another coat of paint done in my bathroom and did more household stuff and talked to Eliso and filled her in on everything with Ian and K and my plan to go down there later in the afternoon. Alan showed up to help me with my outlets and light switches and I used the wood putty to fill some holes in the new cap and sanded them down. We then walked down the hill to look at a condo that was way overpriced for our neighborhood but it’s good to know what they’re trying to list it for. We went back up and he asked me all sorts of questions about my place for the listing information. Dad showed up around 12:30 so I put the pizza in for our lunch and he started mounting the doors but had some finagling to do so I eventually went up to shower and get ready to roll out to Kay-See’s for our trip down to Portland. Dad and I talked politics for a little while before we both hit the road separately. I got to her place, we wrote down directions then started on our way. I got a phone call from Dad saying there was an alert about an insane accident blocking all lanes of traffic on I-5 so we prepped for that and groaned and eventually hit it. I called Susan and she helped us figure out what was happening and told us to call back if we needed her to look up anything else. What a good friend! We took the opportunity to flirt with lots of boys from Oregon in trucks and Kay-See was all about some black guy who took off his shirt for her. After emerging from the traffic we stopped at DQ in Fife and as I was inhaling my Kit Kat blizzard I asked "Ian who?" which made K laugh and we continued on our way. K ate only about 1/3 of hers so I polished the rest of that one off too. I can't help myself. We talked about boys ALL the way down and as we were discussing the whole Eric / D / red head stuff I got a text, figured it would be Ian (I had texted him earlier about the accident), but it was Eric responding to my prior evening’s text, “What’s up? Year mate” and we both sat there with our jaws on the floor because we were literally sitting there talking about him and that thing shows up and K was like “Can he hear us?!”. I decided to ignore it because I was on my way to see Ian, and I’m smitten with him right now, then I got another text, from Richie this time, about birthday plans. We stopped at a rest stop and as I was walking around waiting for K I got ANOTHER text from Eric, which was maybe 30 minutes later or so, that said “Still laying there blogging?” to which I responded “That was last night silly” and he writes back “What about tonight?” and I told him going to PDX. He didn’t respond to that, but shock of shocks he was actually persistent when I didn’t respond to his first one. Crazy. I was baffled. And when K came out I filled her in and we both had a good laugh about it. Oh boys. As we were coming in to PDX K hit the brakes and put her arm across my chest which I thought was cute, and she was like “Well actually, I’m just used to my backpack or a bottle of wine being there so it’s more habit” or something, it was so funny, I was like “Gee, thanks K!” We found where her hotel was but they wouldn’t let her check in so I called Ian to come meet us, we parked, went to Starbucks so I could use the bathroom, I got a blueberry frap and we took off for 6th and Morrison to meet Ian. We got there but I didn’t see him, but luckily K’s eagle eye spotted him across the street and she held my frap so I could get a good hug from him. I couldn’t stop smiling at him. We stopped into the Italian festival so K could make eyes at the romantic Italian singer on stage. We walked to Powell’s and Ian kept saying that the guys honking and yelling out their windows were his fan club members and that he’d had to cancel the meeting that night. We all started in the magazines and I sat next to Ian and we kissed a little then we all migrated toward the art section but K broke off at the Psychology and Astrological section and Ian and I continued up. We looked at the art then split off to look at our respective artistic interests. Me: Morisot and Rothko, Him: Graphic Design. We decided to go find K and she was looking at all sorts of horoscope books and I picked up the Sextrology book and when Ian reviewed the Aries turn-ons he said that it was about 75% on, but wouldn’t clarify which ones (I can pin point quite a few of them now though, after this weekend’s trip). We looked up cuckolding on Ian's iphone, though we're all still unclear of its meaning. We purchased our books and I got a hilarious magnet about trading children in for kittens, then we started walking to go find something to eat. Ryan called and wanted to get food too so we decided to walk back to the car and we were walking FOREVER, but it was ok because the company was fantastic and Ian kept touching me and we’d just look at each other and smile and he’d put his arm around me and I was on cloud 9. Swoooon. We got to the car, drove around looking for a spot, finally parked in the garage, but ended up in the wrong Hilton, so we started to walk to the other one but I suggested Ian and I go put my stuff in his car and we would meet up after that. We had fun walking to where he was parked and started talking about carrots and singing “Stand by Your Man” and he threatened to put it as his ring tone for when I call. Eek! We finally found his car then made out a little in the garage and continued back to the Hilton to meet up with K and R. We started walking to find something to eat and eventually settled on Mama Mia which was an upper scale type restaurant and had delicious garlic bread and pesto gnocchi. My mouth waters just thinking about it. The floor kept vibrating and Ian said it was coming from my purse. Har har. We all felt it except R. Ian and I were totally flirting and touchy all through dinner and ended up carrying on most of our own conversation through dinner…like we were in a different world or something. We had some group discussions about Bodies Exhibit / Body Worlds and R didn’t get that Ian was joking when he said that guy wanted to use the kidney for himself and the yogurt story was funny. The boys also didn’t get the whole “insurance” thing (“like a broker?”) until I clarified it to Ian later on. We were so whatever that K and R were like, “Why don’t you guys go because you CLEARLY need to go make out or have sex or whatever, so bye! Call us tomorrow!” and on that note we decided to leave. As we were walking back to the car he asked if it was ok that he was holding my hand and of course it was. We laughed and kissed all the way to the car then he opened the door for me, aww! We went back to his apartment and I am so thoroughly impressed with his taste (furniture, art, etc) and the cleanliness, I’ve never seen anything like it from a guy. I couldn’t stop telling him how much I loved all his stuff and he told me all about his art and pieces and how he worked at Fossil so that’s why ALL his clothes were insanely organized and folded. He turned all the lights down, lit some candles and created a little bed on the floor in the living room for us to snuggle in while watching an episode of SNL. After we got our jams on we stood there hugging forever, just stood there hugging, and it’s so wonderful that he’s nice and tall and those arms, mmm those arms, all wrapped around me and our bodies meshed into each other. Whew! We watched tv and made out and stripped down and did all sorts of fun things and eventually ended up in his bed to go to sleep but we just ended up talking and laughing and making out more. For hours. A few times throughout the day he would quote movies like Tommy Boy or Dumb and Dumber so anytime for the rest of the trip he would say something I would ask which movie it was from and he was getting all “It’s not from a movie, it’s me saying it! That’s MY line!” and I’d be like “Yeah right, nice try” and would laugh. It was adorable. Then he got all bossy when I told him I liked it when he held my arms above my head and he was like “I'll tell you when you can go to sleep” which was hilarious. I got up to get something out of my bag and all of a sudden there’s a flash and he’s totally taking a picture of the back of me in only my underwear and I’m like, what the hell are you doing? But it was all arty and could be anyone’s back so I let it slide. Back in bed I showed him my fake "O" face and we talked about how I was with someone for a year and never saw his O face, then he said he was going to have sex with me as soon as I fell asleep. We eventually did go to sleep at like 4:30 or something after making out some more of course.
Friday 8/24, I went home after work and started painting and getting shit done around the house and was pretty proud of myself until I dropped my paint brush on the floor and decided to quit. Laying in bed I started to feel nostalgic about Eric and was looking at pictures on flickr and decided to send him a text that said something like “Just laying here blogging (ha!) and realized we have known each other for over a year. Crazy! That’s all…” but didn’t expect to hear back as there was nothing sexual for him to respond back to. I’m not sure what else I did but I know it was a very low key evening.
Thursday 8/23, Court called me at work to comment on Ash having another baby then I told her about Ian very very briefly because I had to go but she called me a slut which cracked me up. Jan said the texturing should be done, but when I got home it wasn't so I couldn't paint in the bathrooms, which didn't break my heart but just meant that it's going to be that much longer that I'm without my two upstairs bathrooms. I talked to Susan about dinner and Neighbours plans then packed up more pictures and knick knacks and used the wood putty to fill the holes in the capped divider wall and it was surprisingly easy to use. Susan called to say she was on her way to the Keg so I departed and met her in the lot. She had a birthday coupon and I was trying to go cheap so I got the french onion soup and a side of sweet / spicy green beans. There was some eye candy in the form of a shaggy haired waiter that we both kept checking out, and not all that discreetly. What can I say, we’re two classy broads. We had a fun dinner then I was back at home continuing with chores. I got the Copper Mine paint out to touch-up the picture wall so that was done fairly quickly then I climbed onto my bed and fell asleep for a little while. I eventually got up, showered and ready to hit the road to Susan's because she had a year's supply of magazines for me and cookies. We hung at her place for a few then took off for Neighbours. Eric the cute bouncer was back working the front and scoffed when we got our ids out, like "Put em away" kind of thing and I said long time no see and he asked how I was, and he is just so cute. Mmm. Went in and hit the floor right away and there were so many people there it was kind of crazy...not too many regulars though, just Tye and my outfit changing bf. We spotted some cute plaid shirt wearing boys and each put dibs on the one we wanted, but I noticed that mine had a gf, but when I expressed this concern to Susan she goes “Not for long he won’t!” which totally cracked me up for like 10 minutes. The one awkward tranny scored with a guy then another tranny later which totally impressed us. We think they went outside for an alley blow job. Teal and Darren were there and walked by us like 3 times and I tried to catch Teal’s gaze but was unsuccessful so then I thought he was avoiding us so Susan went over to say hi and he says he didn’t see us. Susan’s plaid shirt guy came over and started to dance in front of me and she was like “Get away from my girlfriend!” and he totally scrammed and we both cracked up. Like, a lot. Hmm, what else? I know I’m forgetting stuff, but I’m fairly distracted right now from the weekend’s events. We left around 1 and walked to our cars together and I was home by 1:30.
Wednesday 8/22, I met Mom at Home Depot so she could help me pick out bathroom colors and we did it fairly quickly then went back to my house and chit chatted and looked at condos online. She stayed until 5:30 or 6 or something then I packed up some pictures downstairs and felt fairly accomplished with that, took a little nap on the couch then puttied the holes from all the pictures and stuff in the dining room. I called Eliso to see if she was still going to come over, she said no but that she wanted Kay-See and me to come over to her place so I said we would call her when we were done gossiping and stuff. Kay-See showed up a little after 7:30 and we instantly got down to business by throwing a pizza in the oven and settling onto the counters to begin 2-weeks worth of stories. I insisted she go first since she's had more stories mounting up than me so she told me all about her and Ryan and the ups and downs and complications of being in a "relationship" but also all the good stuff that makes it worth sticking around and compromising for. Then I told her all about my Ian stuff and she was very excited for me and asked when I was going to see him next. I explained I didn't know when since I'm out of town over Labor Day then I've got house stuff after that and she told me that Ryan was going down to Portland this weekend for a golf thing and had wanted her to go but we had plans to go dancing and she didn't want to ditch and my Dad was going to be at my house on Saturday, but then she suggested that we could go down on Saturday afternoon and stay the night and hang out on Sunday then come back and I instantly got SO excited. I giddily asked her if I should call Ian to ask him if he would be interested in me coming down so I did, left a message and he called me back within a few minutes. He was still sick which made me feel bad and he was mock-mad I wasn't sick too, but then I explained what Kay-See and I had just been discussing and he got all excited and was like "YES" and K could hear him and thought it was so cute that he was very enthusiastic and thought he had a nice voice. Then he said it was "brilliant" so for the rest of the night K and I referred to things as brilliant and totally cracked ourselves up. I told him to feel better because I didn't want him to be sick for the weekend and he said hopefully he would, so here's hoping. After that I called Eliso but Jake said she was already asleep so we wouldn't be going over, so I got some blueberries out and we munched on those and continued talking. I got my computer out to show her that LPC had changed him profile to "In a Relationship" which confirmed what I already knew and that he dumped me for that 23 year old Melanie girl. Oh well, maybe he figured she'd be a better step-mommy for his kid or something...or maybe she just puts out. Who knows? She is pretty, which K instantly commented on, so always pushes the knife in a little further, but whatever, was I even that into him? Maybe. I don't know. I think Ian is way hotter and he doesn't have a child and we seem to mesh really well so we'll just have to see about all the other stuff. K rolled out around 10 and we were both totally giddy about the trip down south and vowed to plan it out further over the next couple days. I think I showered then went to bed or something.
Saturday 8/25, I was up pretty early to get shiz done before leaving to go to Portland. I got another coat of paint done in my bathroom and did more household stuff and talked to Eliso and filled her in on everything with Ian and K and my plan to go down there later in the afternoon.

I eventually got up, showered and ready to hit the road to Susan's because she had a year's supply of magazines for me and cookies. We hung at her place for a few then took off for Neighbours. Eric the cute bouncer was back working the front and scoffed when we got our ids out, like "Put em away" kind of thing and I said long time no see and he asked how I was, and he is just so cute. Mmm. Went in and hit the floor right away and there were so many people there it was kind of crazy...not too many regulars though, just Tye and my outfit changing bf. We spotted some cute plaid shirt wearing boys and each put dibs on the one we wanted, but I noticed that mine had a gf, but when I expressed this concern to Susan she goes “Not for long he won’t!” which totally cracked me up for like 10 minutes. The one awkward tranny scored with a guy then another tranny later which totally impressed us. We think they went outside for an alley blow job. Teal and Darren were there and walked by us like 3 times and I tried to catch Teal’s gaze but was unsuccessful so then I thought he was avoiding us so Susan went over to say hi and he says he didn’t see us. Susan’s plaid shirt guy came over and started to dance in front of me and she was like “Get away from my girlfriend!” and he totally scrammed and we both cracked up. Like, a lot. Hmm, what else? I know I’m forgetting stuff, but I’m fairly distracted right now from the weekend’s events. We left around 1 and walked to our cars together and I was home by 1:30.
Wednesday 8/22, I met Mom at Home Depot so she could help me pick out bathroom colors and we did it fairly quickly then went back to my house and chit chatted and looked at condos online. She stayed until 5:30 or 6 or something then I packed up some pictures downstairs and felt fairly accomplished with that, took a little nap on the couch then puttied the holes from all the pictures and stuff in the dining room. I called Eliso to see if she was still going to come over, she said no but that she wanted Kay-See and me to come over to her place so I said we would call her when we were done gossiping and stuff. Kay-See showed up a little after 7:30 and we instantly got down to business by throwing a pizza in the oven and settling onto the counters to begin 2-weeks worth of stories. I insisted she go first since she's had more stories mounting up than me so she told me all about her and Ryan and the ups and downs and complications of being in a "relationship" but also all the good stuff that makes it worth sticking around and compromising for. Then I told her all about my Ian stuff and she was very excited for me and asked when I was going to see him next. I explained I didn't know when since I'm out of town over Labor Day then I've got house stuff after that and she told me that Ryan was going down to Portland this weekend for a golf thing and had wanted her to go but we had plans to go dancing and she didn't want to ditch and my Dad was going to be at my house on Saturday, but then she suggested that we could go down on Saturday afternoon and stay the night and hang out on Sunday then come back and I instantly got SO excited. I giddily asked her if I should call Ian to ask him if he would be interested in me coming down so I did, left a message and he called me back within a few minutes. He was still sick which made me feel bad and he was mock-mad I wasn't sick too, but then I explained what Kay-See and I had just been discussing and he got all excited and was like "YES" and K could hear him and thought it was so cute that he was very enthusiastic and thought he had a nice voice. Then he said it was "brilliant" so for the rest of the night K and I referred to things as brilliant and totally cracked ourselves up. I told him to feel better because I didn't want him to be sick for the weekend and he said hopefully he would, so here's hoping. After that I called Eliso but Jake said she was already asleep so we wouldn't be going over, so I got some blueberries out and we munched on those and continued talking. I got my computer out to show her that LPC had changed him profile to "In a Relationship" which confirmed what I already knew and that he dumped me for that 23 year old Melanie girl. Oh well, maybe he figured she'd be a better step-mommy for his kid or something...or maybe she just puts out. Who knows? She is pretty, which K instantly commented on, so always pushes the knife in a little further, but whatever, was I even that into him? Maybe. I don't know. I think Ian is way hotter and he doesn't have a child and we seem to mesh really well so we'll just have to see about all the other stuff. K rolled out around 10 and we were both totally giddy about the trip down south and vowed to plan it out further over the next couple days. I think I showered then went to bed or something.
