Friday 2/29, I was tired after work and just wanted to relax and was hoping Erik wouldn’t call to hang out. I put on Life Aquatic and fell asleep a little over halfway through because I was so exhausted. I woke up and started to clean the kitchen and get my dinner prepped when Erik called. He wanted to hang so I told him to come over after he got out of the shower. I called Susan and told her my plans for the night, popped in a pizza, hopped into the shower and hurriedly got ready. He called to ask about movies then I called Chrystol to tell her about it and we made plans for the next day to hang out. Erik snuck in undetected because he was driving an Xtera and called me from my front door as I was talking to Chrystol around 8:00. We chatted in the kitchen for a little bit then headed upstairs to put the movie on. We talked on my bed for a while and kissed a little then popped in Batman Begins. We watched a good portion of it before the making out started. It was very good making out but there was one thing I didn’t like but I’m not publishing. I made my disapproval known though, and he responded appropriately. The goods are more than adequate and that’s all I’m saying on that front. Before long I put some music on and we just talked. Forever. Some of it I had no idea what he was talking about but most of it was about relationships and sex and I told him that I wasn’t over Ian and that the main reason we’re not together is the distance but that I’m also trying to move on and kind of motioned to him, and thankfully he was like “Well, I’m ok with being Mr. Right Now” so that was a relief. The subject was changed fairly quickly after that but I was really impressed with his attitude. And relieved. We talked about sex and vibrators and expectations and not getting off during sex so I think I opened his eyes about some things and he also had some interesting things to add. He knows my stance. Overall it was fun and he asked if he could take me to lunch on Sunday. We laid there for a long long time and at 2:30 he asked if he should let me go to sleep. I said yes and hoped he wasn’t angling for a sleepover invite. I walked him down and told him I would see him Sunday and went to bed.
Thursday 2/28, I picked up my prescription and suffered through my short workout then made some dinner and showered. Turned on Little Children and texted Erik about hanging out Friday but he didn’t know if he was going to be feeling better so I told him to let me know. Received a message on myspace from Michael asking if I was going out, I responded yes but knew he probably wouldn't read it before logging off, and I was right so I texted him that I was and asked if he was and he replied back in the positive. My movie ended right at 10:45 so I packed up, was clawed and bit by my cat on my arm for attempting to remove him from my room, grabbed him by the back of the neck and threw his ass out into the hallway and took off. I put in Cat Power and started crying in the car thinking about Ian then told myself to take a deep breath and settle down and got some tissue out of my purse and dabbed trying to avoid ruining my makeup. Susan beat me to our spot and climbed in. We talked for a few minutes while I prepped and in we went. The new procedure requires unbuttoning / unzipping your coat so they car verify you don't have any knives around your middle. It was weird and we were like "Really? Really guys?" but apparently the answer is yes, really, unzip that hoodie. We checked our coats then upstairs to watch the crowd. It was pretty full for how early it was and Susan quickly noticed Green Shirt then I noticed Raver Guy standing next to us (who proceeded to try and make eye contact with me for the rest of the night), Lurker and lastly Awkward, who was pulling off some rather daring heels. We headed down to dance but there was some incredibly slippery substance on the floor so we slowly migrated to the other side of the pillar. I noticed when Kyle came in and got all excited because we haven't seen him in months, but alas, I never even talked to him. Max came over and danced with us and Susan had mentioned earlier how much she liked his striped pirate pants. He told me he wants to take us to the Mercury and that it’s a private club but that he can get us in, though Susan and I joked that they’d try to hang us from chains once we were inside. After Max left I saw Susan’s SP bf and he waved at me from the stage and I was shocked that he recognized me from up there and took the initiative to wave to me first. Susan spotted Teal and Darren and we took turns squealing Darren’s name like the time she did it when Craig was standing right next to us. We saw Craig come in though he looked too short and had a friend in tow. They came out onto the dance floor and I pretended I didn’t see them until he came over and gave us enthusiastic hugs. An awful drag show started and went on and on for like 20 minutes and we just stood on the side and scowled. George came over and was clearing glasses by us and I told him just how awful I found the show and he proceeded to ask if I knew what was worse, I asked what and he said “genital herpes” which I obviously had to agree with. Susan went to say hi to Kyle and I went and stood over by the pillar and Max came over and we discussed how much we hate the drag show and that if it was 5 minutes it would be fine, but the length of these things is over the top. The show finally ended and we went back out there and danced to like two songs then decided we’d had enough and to take off. We passed Craig on the way to get our coats and he’s like “You’re leaving?!” like he was really excited to come down and dance with us, but I told him yes and gave him a hug and we went and got our coats. On the way out we saw Michael coming in and I was like “Awww, damn!” and told him the songs were sucking so we were leaving. We ended up standing out there talking to him for a few minutes about Erik and metallic shoes (Susan made me feel bad about myself for not being in the silver shoe club) and Jesse and going on a double date. Teal and Darren came out and distracted Michael so we said bye to the boys and took off.
Wednesday 2/27, I was going to work out but felt tired and still a little sick so I made excuses and didn’t do it. I cleaned instead and eventually ate dinner and turned on Mr. and Mrs. Smith and watched that until I needed to leave for the meeting. I was one of the first there but more trickled in and Janna sat next to me and helped me decide who to vote for and said hilarious things under her breath. It was a decent meeting and luckily didn’t go over 2 hours. Janna asked who the guy I’ve been having over is and I was like “Which one?!” and she was like “You slut!” then I clarified that I was kidding and asked if she was talking about the guy with the motorcycle and she said she didn’t know, but that she’d seen a guy with dark hair which I confirmed was Erik. Then she commented on how I never close my blinds and that she’d seen him in my living room and I made a mental note that I needed to start shutting those blinds. I walked home and finished watching my movie and talked to Susan and eventually went to bed.
Tuesday 2/26, I woke up miraculously cured! I felt sooo much better. Got home and did a little tidying then started on dinner and Erik called though I missed it and he left a message calling me beautiful. I have my theories as to why, but I won't go into it. I called him back and made plans to hang out Wednesday night and hung out in my room. I watched my shows and talked to Susan during Biggest Loser. After it was over I was playing on my computer and my phone rang and it said “Eric Cell” and I was like “Ohhhh rEALly!” and answered somewhat excitedly. We talked for a while about his new phone and work and getting in trouble at work and eventually he asked me about HI. My ticket’s booked and he’s going to do his this weekend and told me I HAVE to go to Ronny and Michelle’s wedding though I said I didn’t think that was a good idea. He thinks Nicole is going but didn’t say for sure so that should be interesting. We talked a bit longer then hung up and I realized I had a homeowner’s meeting the next night so I had to cancel on Erik, called him and left a voicemail telling him it was me and that I was sorry then went to bed.
Monday 2/25, I felt like shit so I climbed into bed immediately and stayed there for the rest of the night. Well, except to make some dinner. I watched Arrested Development and finished Season 3 then Paradise Hotel which I am semi-ashamed to be hooked on, but not entirely. Erik texted asking how I was then asked if he could bring me anything which is incredibly sweet but I told him it was ok and that I would be fine. I went to bed at 10 after gargling salt water and mouthwash to hopefully cure my sore throat.
