Friday 12/7, I had been worried all week about my route to PDX for the weekend but luckily they opened up the freeway at noon and that’s when I left work so by the time I got down there it was smooth sailing and I made it down there pretty quickly. I didn’t really speed since I knew I had plenty of time (Ian got off work at 4:30) so I didn’t worry about setting any records, though I did make it down in 3 hours. I arrived in Sellwood and looked for a nail place and found one and parked. Just as I was about to get out of the car Ian called and asked where I was and I nervously and gigglingly told him I was in Sellwood and he was surprised but I told him I didn’t want him to worry about having to get off work early to meet me and he told me he was already home and to come by when I was done. So I had my toes done and they looked so cute, though the little slippers they gave me to wear were not so cute…and felt like a piece of paper between my feet and the ground. I called Ian and told him I was on my way and Ryan answered the door when I arrived because Ian had just emerged from the shower. I put my stuff down then we kissed and hugged and I asked why he was being so weird on the phone and he said it was because I was being weird, so that was fine. We hung out there for a little bit then went to some theater so he could get tickets for the show he was taking his dad to. We stopped at the store on the way home to get some “essentials” which included some deodorant but when he said he needed shampoo I wouldn’t let him buy any and wouldn’t tell him why. We wandered around laughing and flirting and holding hands and doing yay or nay on the snacks and the kinds of snacks we liked. Table Water Crackers – definite “Nay”. Triscuits – “Way Nay” it was kind of a fun game. Mayonnaise – Yay! It’s fate according to Jake and Eliso. We eventually settled on chips and salsa and debated chip and salsa brands. We checked out and went back out to the car where I got in some girl’s way and Ian caught her giving me a funny look. When we got back we watched some Curb Your Enthusiasm with Ryan then he took off and we broke out the snacks and chowed down. He asked me what I wanted to do so I got out his presents and had him open them all and he really liked them and kept giving me kisses and said that it was perfect because it’s all stuff he wouldn’t know to buy for himself. We flipped the couch around and started watching Team America and I laughed so hard anytime Kim Jong Il would come on the screen and mispronounce his “L”s “Oh, Herrrrroh!” it kills me. About halfway through Ian wanted to go to Dairy Queen so I said I would go too and we walked down and he convinced me to get something though I totally didn’t feel like it. I got a chocolate dipped cone (wonderful choice, good on Ian) and we walked back talking about sex and past partners and subsequent relationships and it was very interesting. I love that he’s so open about things that I’m curious about and doesn’t close up about past relationships a la Brandon. We started the movie back up and I continued to laugh at KJI but fell asleep and missed the end. So did Ian. We got up and ready for bed and ended up talking in bed forever then, well, yeah, that and we both knocked it out of the park and he was extra vocal which surprised me, in a good way. He turned the light back on and we ended up laying talking and I picked at him with my fingers and with tweezers and he said he likes it when I do that and he looked at stuff on his phone or we listened to music or something…I don’t know, I was tired. We went to bed around 2:30 I would guess.
Thursday 12/6, I stayed late at work but heard from Eric who mentioned being interested in attending the Art Walk with me so we made plans for him to call me later. At home I raced around trying to clean, pack, feed J, talk to Susan about the night's plans, eat dinner, shower and get ready. Eric didn't think he would be off work in time so we decided to play it by ear. I watched Last One Standing and fell deeper in love with Richard. Eric finally called a little before 9 and we started chatting about if we were going to get together or not, then I suggested I could bring my laptop and we could go to a coffee shop and do his myspace but he told me he already did it and had pictures up and everything, so then I looked but the profile I've bookmarked didn't have any changes so he says that he must have more than one so I searched a little more and found it just as he had to jump off and told me he would call me back. I started looking at it and the only friend he has is some girl with him in her profile picture, so I go to her profile and it's all about how wonderful her bf is and how she's madly in love then I go to her pictures and there are all these pictures of them and I just felt my stomach drop and started feeling nauseous and like I wanted to cry. WTF?! So IS he in a relationship with this girl or what?! Then I call Susan and realize that I've been staring at the screen with my jaw hanging down from the shock of it. I start spilling to Susan and sent her the link and she's surprised but not and I'm ready to send him a text that says "motherfucker." but I refrained and he ended up calling back about 5 minutes later. I answered and started with a barrage of questions. "ARE YOU IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH THAT GIRL?!" and anyway we talked about it and it sounds like they're getting back together since she was the girl he was seeing back in the spring and whose heart he broke (I told him he could start a club since he broke Jennifer’s heart, this girl’s and mine as well). We ended up on myspace at the same time sending each other messages and I answered questions for him because he doesn't know what the hell he's doing. I eventually somewhat recovered but it was still salt in the wound because it was like they'd had the relationship that he'd so adamantly denied he wanted…and apparently it was just with me. So that sucked. Or I guess I just take it personally. But at the same time we laughed quite a bit and had fun talking on the phone. I mostly just told him to shut up a lot. I called Susan back and forth between calls with Eric so then we finally made our plans for the night after I freaked out to her for a while on the phone. As I was waiting around to leave Ian called to firm up plans for the weekend then put Nick on the phone who invited me to go to the coast for an ugly sweater party and a concert his dad is having. I talked a little more to Ian on my way in then parked and walked in by myself. When I got there Eric was like "Where have you been?! It doesn't take that long to get here from Bellevue!" and I just stood there shocked like how the hell did he know that?! Then he said my little friend had been through and told him all about my excuses. That Susan is crafty! So that was kind of funny then I went in and found Susan upstairs who informed me that Andrew was there and she was displeased. We watched from up there then danced and said hi to Tye. Some lesbians kept bumping into Susan and one of them pushed her on purpose so who knows what that was all about. Maybe that was her way of flirting. We danced a lot and I kept my eye out for Eric and danced extra hilariously when he would walk by, though he never looks over. Teal and Darren showed up and came and danced by us then we saw the Haunted Horse and Susan wouldn't stop neigh-ing and I was dying. I laughed and laughed and laughed. She's really good at it. Very spooky. Before long Michael came bounding over and I squealed and jumped up and down and gave him a hug. It's been quite a while since I've seen him so that was really cool. We talked and danced and then I noticed that T & D were still there and that the only reason is probably because T thinks M is cute. I didn't care though, if you want to dance by us I don't care if it's because I'm friends with another cute boy you wanna get with. We all danced for a long time and laughed and took pictures and Michael passed out spankings to Susan. The boys took off and some guy came over and started talking to Susan and she shamed him for what he said. That's like twice in one week. She's on fire! Around 1 we decided to take off but Susan wanted to say bye to Darren and I wanted to say bye to Michael so I found him and said bye and he liked my tattoo even though he knew it was fake and on my way back I ran into Eric and talked about the Eastside and that I'm a "princess" because I live in Bellevue and he asked where my tiara was. Whatever. Apparently he's in the reserves for the Air Force (per Teal's confirmation as well) and also a paramedic. Why the hell would you work at Neighbours if you've got that other stuff going on? I guess I shouldn't question. Susan came up, I said bye to Eric and we walked to our cars and Susan gave me a lift to mine.
Wednesday 12/5, Sos and I had lunch at a little Thai place by her school and made plans for dinner. Peggy let me off at 3:30 so I went home and moved some shit around and organized a bit then went to BB&B to pick up some pillows because my new bed set came in and ended up picking up some new sheets too that are nice and soft. I went to look at mattresses next and that shit is expensive! I was like, "Peace old guy, I can't afford this" and plan to return to Costco...or something. They were really wonderful, I'll give them that. I went to Sos' and presented the gouda. I constructed the salad and she the soup and together we did the sandwiches and talked about one of her coworkers and some other things and finally enjoyed our dinner in front of the tv. ANTM came on and we were heckling Bianca the whole time and were relieved when she was eliminated even though we both still don't like Jenna and her meth habit. I left not too long afterward and called Susan on the way home to discuss the outcome and her outing with Ryan. I chatted with Ian a little on Skype but mostly ran around my room and played with Jacques.
