"i've walked for miles, my feet are hurtin'"--the rolling stones
first off, on friday, i got a call from the receptionist saying that i had a delivery, which was odd, so i went downstairs and there were a dozen beautiful pink roses waiting for me, from chris. heart :)
after work, i met julie, shawna, sharla, heidi and vincent at saba for happy hour, which was fun. after that, i went home, hoping for a nap, but it didn't happen :( i ended up taking a shower and then my mom stopped by to see the flowers and then chris showed up, so he met her (1st meeting the parents step) and by that time it was getting later, so i got ready and then we met at ramzi's and went out with ramzi and hope, on the way downtown we picked up this guy ali and his friend rami(?) and went to firehouse. we had already been pre-drinking and had sirena eaten more than spinach dip for dinner? no. that was a bad, bad move. something weird happened at firehouse, like the lights went out or something? i have no idea what happened, but that we ended up at Six. i love that place and the rooftop, we metup with some peeps there: gretchen, jo and loza and gretchen told hope and i that matthew mcconaughey and lance armstrong were there and pointed us in the right direction, so of course, we went! there was lance sitting down and matthew like mackin' on girls (yes, all i can think of is his character in dazed and confused saying "i get older, and they stay the same age") basically we just stared at them for awhile and i tried to snap some (drunk) pictures. ramzi asked the bodyguard if he could take a picture with lance, but he said no, b/c if he did, then everyone would know they were there (as if everyone didn't know already) and then they'd have to take pictures of everyone. well, ramzi decided when they went to the bathroom that he would wait outside and stalk them. (i was a little sad that jake gyllenhall wasn't with them, if he was there, it would have been over, i mean like. are you kidding me? a top 5? within 10 feet of me? no. over)
ali, me, hope, ramzi
me and hope
me and chris
the story goes that ramzi decided he would ask lance personally if he could get a picture with him, so when (very drunk) lance came out, ramzi approached him, told him he was a big fan and if he could get a picture, lance looked at him, leaned back, scratched his chest and said "nope." and then explaiend that if he took a picture with him that EVERYONE would want to take a picture, and THEN matthew stepped in front of lance, grasped ramzi's hand and said "dude. no pictures. got it?" ramzi's like "alright dude." as lance walked away, a drunk chris, laughingly said "so lance? no pictures?" and lance went into his schpeel AGAIN about how everyone would want a picture. anywaysssssss, that's my exciting story for the night. i dont' remember walking to the car, i sort of remember getting out at the drive-thru at mcdonalds with hope, and only remember waking up at 10 on an air mattress at ramzi's apt and seeing chris on the couch. what a great night. boo.
so chris took me home and i slept and showered, then slept again til about 5 and felt pretty awful. must put food in stomach before drinking 7 drinks. i went to get chris, then we went over to my parents house for dinner, rose and thad were also in town, so they got to meet him too. it went pretty well. :) so at least all that's out of the way. i don't want to hear ANYTHING about how early it is that we're meeting the parents, this entire relationship is full of grey areas, i've known him for like 12 years, nothing really can fit the normal mode of anything. after dinner, we went to see talladega nights with ramzi and hope. i think i liked nacho libre better, but whatever. i dropped chris off and got home at like 3? boo.
on sunday, i went over to my parents' house and, my mom, rose and thad and i went to eat lunch at suzi's then to the mall. it actually wasn't as crowded as i thought it would be, i bought some makeup, a fan thing at sharper image (for ACL, it squirts water) and then we went to old navy and i got some stuff there. after we finally got home, i went home, showered and chris came over.
we went over to ramzi and hope's (do you see a pattern? they're our favorite couple) and watched v for vendetta. i didn't really know what to expect, except it hurt my head and i need to watch it again. when he dropped me off, he came inside and sort of brought up the DTR thing again about what was going to happen next week? i told him i was really confused b/c i was under the impression that we were going to try and he's like "yeah, we DID decide that"...i'm like "ok, so are you reconsidering?" he's like "no", that he just can't stop thinking about it and won't until there's a resolution, which basically means he'll think about it forever. awesome. which made ME think about it, boo. he leaves in 3 days, so sad. le sigh.
oh and last night i got this message on my phone that said it had rejected a message b/c the memory was out, so i was like whatever and deleted some of them, this morning, i was about to send a text message and not only did it say 1/1 in my inbox (and i had no warning), it had DELETED EVERY SINGLE TEXT MESSAGE I SAVED (and yes i save some b/c some i like to read again) i was so sad, i almost cried. booooo
also, shoutout to kitch, his birthday was yesterday!
