Monday 4/28, I had my derm appt and that went fine and she injected my mole with cortisone or something and though it hurt it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be and hopefully after a few more injections it won’t be so ugly. After work I wanted to walk but I’d forgotten my shoes so I just wore my poorly supportive Asics and made the best of it. Around 15 minutes in it really started to rain so I turned back and it started pouring. At that point I put my hood up and started running and ran the entire way back and was exhausted and soaked. Completely soaked. I decided against dropping off my prescription and headed home instead, water dripping off my face and scalp and pants soaking to the touch. I stripped down because I was getting cold then Susan called and we talked for a while about her interesting night. I hopped in the shower then worked on dinner and ate way too much. Watched GG then read a lot, texted Eric, watched Bachelor and went to bed after a bit more reading.

Sunday 4/27, We both started stirring around 9 and just laid talking and laughing until my alarm went off. Then we laid there some more and I texted Kay-See to see if we could move brunch a half hour then she called and was hungry so I told her I'd get up and be quick about it. We ended up staying a little longer and just kind of cuddled and he kept kissing me on my cheek and head and I made fun of his music preferences and told him his stock was plummeting when he mentioned seeing Eminem a long time ago in the parking lot of the Kingdome but made up a couple points when he knew who Interpol were and said he saw them a few months ago. We both got dressed and ready and headed downstairs then a few more kisses and googly-eyed smiles and took off. I got to K's and her and Ky were waiting out front and hopped in and just as they did Eric texted me saying "You make me feel great. Have a good day" and I "awww!"'d and shared then we headed down to Blu Water Bistro on Lake Union but they don't do brunch so we went to the Greenlake one and all suppressed our stories and told drivers in front of us how much we hated them. We put in our orders (goat cheese, spinach and artichoke omelet) and started the stories. All I could say about Eric was "He's so nice, he's just really really nice" and smile a lot. They thought I'd slept with him but I happily reported that it hadn't even come close to that. He'll have to hang in there a while before that even becomes an option. Everyone's stories were good and breakfast was very good and I ate all of mine then some of K's. THEN when we were done we stopped into the bakery across the street and I got a giant chocolate chip cookie and ate ALL OF IT. I'd worked up an appetite! We drove back to K's and said bye to Ky then went up to her place and watched SatC trailers and K did the quiz to see who her SatC guy would be and I laughed manically when it was Harry since she had smirked when I grumpily told her I'd done it a long time ago and got him. Haha! We laid on the floor and I told her much more about Eric and how I'm totally fascinated by him and want to know more more more. Her mom called to say she was there so I called Susan to see what she was up to and to see if she wanted to hang and she did so I took off and she met me downstairs. When we went up I sleepily laid down on her bed and closed my eyes. Before too long we took off for the GO and I got sooo much stuff for $14 and felt insanely proud. There weren’t any fights though. Back to her house I brought up the Famous Amos cookies and ate more than I should have and she turned on SatC and I drifted in and out of sleep. We talked intermittently as well but mostly I just laid there like a lump and laughed when marathon man liked Miranda's butt. Around 5:30 I took off for Mom's even though I was really tired. She made some kind of ham / turkey / mushroom sauce and pasta which was very good. I told them all about Eric and we talked about some of that stuff but eventually Alix came home and started in on the soccer talk so I left. I hit the Albertson's on the island and was shocked by how much nicer it is than the other ones and how many kosher sections there are. A large Jewish population will do that I guess. At home I put everything away then went up to my room and relaxed and got ready for bed and to call it an early night. Watched my shows, got a sweet text from Eric before bed and fell asleep.

Saturday 4/26, I was up by 8:30, got gas then threw my sheets in the washer and took off for a walk. I set out for about 23 minutes then made my way back alternating between running and walking. At home I realized that if Eric was coming over I needed to clean so I started busting that out which meant more laundry, sweeping and mopping the stairs, cleaning the garbage can, counters, kitchen sink, living room and picking up the little cluttery stuff in my room. Chip called while I was on my walk so I called him back and we talked for a long time and discussed the girls and said we would catch up next week and trade account details. Eric called as I was just finishing up my cleaning and said he was on his way over and I told him then I should probably get in the shower. I hurriedly did that and got ready then had a minute to breathe so I called Susan and as we were talking I saw him drive by and it took him forever to get back (later told me he was looking at all the houses). I met him downstairs and he was all dressed up and looked really nice and I told him I felt really under dressed then he gave me a kiss and a hug and said how nice it was to see me. We went upstairs and kissed some more and sat talking for a few minutes (about how he makes out with his hand) then I suggested grilling at Peggy's and walking the trail since it was so beautiful out. We went by QFC but they didn't have good hot dogs so we went to Safeway and picked out feta and spinach dogs and totally agreed on the potato buns then chips and guac. We both hate Doritos. We were having a little mock fight and this lady asked if she could help and after she walked away I said she probably thought to herself "Lover's quarrel" which made him laugh. We checked out and headed to Peggy's. It was a beautiful day and we settled onto the deck and got the grill going while we talked and ate chips. We ate all the dogs then sat inside for a long time talking and eventually headed out onto the trail. We talked and walked for a long time then turned around and I suggested going to DQ and he was totally on board. We cleaned up and headed out and it was probably about 5:30 by this point. The crazy guy was working again and we just waited for the ridiculousness to come out of his mouth and felt bad for his coworker who he was listing what he thought was Japanese (ie yoga, karate, etc). We took a spot in the back again and both got the cheesecake oreo and I loved mine and I will assume he did too. We headed back to my house while he tried to convince me the Mountain had good music so we put it on but it was just commercials and lame elevator music and he was getting so exasperated like "This isn't really it! I swear! This is a commercial!" and I just nodded sarcastically. He wanted to see Baby Mama so we checked movie times and hung in my room for a little bit and talked on my bed until it was time to catch the 7:45 show. He bought the tickets and I got the Goobers. The theater was packed and we sat pretty close to the front but it was surprisingly not too bad. The movie was good and so were the Goobers. We went back to my house and settled onto the couch and just talked forever. Like hours and hours of talking. I put on one of my make out cds and it totally did the trick. He even commented that it was a good cd to make out to and I was like "Oh, yeah, I guess" mwhahahaa! A little after 2am there was a whole bunch of commotion outside and some guy yelling at some girl "I saw you making out with him! I can't believe you did this to me! I own a house with him! Oh my god, I can't believe this!" and all sorts of other stuff. We were totally intrigued so I crawled on the floor to turn out the lights and got some crackers and cookies out so we could properly enjoy the show. It calmed down quickly and I'm not sure if yellow car was the maker outer or not. We started talking forever again and he was talking a lot about his stuff and I had my head in his lap and wrapped in a blanket and was so comfortable and his voice was so soothing I just wanted to fall asleep to the sound. Not because I was bored, just because I was so comfortable and liked listening to him with my eyes closed. Around 4am he asked if he could sleep on the couch and I told him don’t be silly and that he could sleep in my room so I was getting ready and gave him some pjs and he laid down on top of the covers and I laughed and told him he could be under and he said he had to tell himself "Be cool Eric" and didn't want me to come in and be like "Who is this guy?" just assuming he could be underneath. We were kind of cuddling / spooning but he kept having a coughing fit and eventually he got it under control and I asked if he needed some water and that sparked a very enthusiastic make out session. Pants stayed on though because I'm just like that. I'd guess a little after 5am we drifted off to sleep.

Friday 4/25, I sent Eric a text in the morning congratulating him and that I would talk to him later. I went for a walk but nothing too long because I was incredibly sore from the prior day’s workouts. I headed home and Eric called a quarter before 6 and totally threw me off. He thanked me for the message and that he was having a great day. He asked me about my day and I told him about my walk and he asked if it was on “rape trail” which made me laugh. We discussed our plans for the next day then hung up and I started making some dinner. I talked to Susan for a long time and tried my best to be helpful and talk through some things. After we hung up I relaxed in my room and started falling asleep by 8:30 then watched Dateline but eventually ditched that to read some Martha Stewart and turned in by 10:30. I had crazy vivid dreams about people from high school.
