Sleepy times

Tonight I watched The Royal Tenenbaum's for the first time. One of my friends just broke up with his girlfriend and was feeling blue, so I rented it, called him (it is his favorite movie), and made him watch it with me over the phone. He said the idea was stupid but he didn't hang up, I think it was a success. The movie was awesome and I can't believe it was the one Wes Anderson movie I had never seen. I'm a fan of his and had never quite had the time or motivation to see it until now. I recommend it. I think it has made its way among my top twenty all time favorite movies.

In other news, Chase slept over last night. This morning he woke me up close to six this morning by stealing ALL of the covers. So, naturally, I kicked him to give them back, twice. After that failed, I pushed him off the bed. Literally. Afterwards, we were both awake and couldn't go back to sleep, so we went to his house for breakfast. His mom made us Waffles and we hung out with his daughter. Then his brother came to pick her up for an outing in the city and Chase and I went to my house and ordered Thai. It was all very lovely. That pretty much sums it up.

Feeble days.

So, it is definite, Chase leaves for California on Dec. 28th. He called up moving companies on Sat. and got quotes. I was at his house all weekend, I spent some time with his daughter. I'm getting better at the being around kids thing. I feel a little more comfortable about her now. Saturday night, Claire's grandparents (her mom's parents) picked her up to spend the night. So Chase and I said good night to his parents and went back to my place.

He told me that he didn't want leave with our relationship up in the air. He wants us to still date while he is in California. He was like, it's not forever, 6 months to a year, he said that there are weekends that he could visit me, phones, mail. He told me after I graduate, I could go and spend the summer with him and Claire. It all sounds very good, but I guess it is something I have to wait and see on.

Sunday comes and Chase's mom calls him and tells him he has to come home because she and his dad are going out, and one of his dogs, Benji, was throwing up.



We think he ate a plant out something in the backyard. While we were stuck at his house, Chase invited his friend Eric over with his girlfriend. They came over, and everything was going good, until I became very depresed. I went into Chase's room and started crying. Sarah followed me in and I have this habit that I've had since I was a kid, I go into the closet when I cry. Chase knows about it, and now Sarah and Eric know about it. Anyway, Sarah sat next to me outside the closet and cried with me for like an hour. She's having problems too, so we had a very cathartic cry. After, we went back outside with Chase and Eric, and to make us feel better, the guys let us paint their toenails pink.


That was pretty much the extent of our weekend. I have a lot of school work to catch up on.

Piles of ink

Today has been productive. I've gotten into the habit of waking up every hour during the night and finally by 6am, calling it quits on sleep and starting my day. So, today, at 6 I starting reading two weeks worth of NY Times papers that I have been putting off.
I got about halfway through before it was time fo me to head to work. Work was busy, I work in the library at a local high school. I had to help the librarians today with their workshop schedule. During period 6 a group of kids ran by the room and threw a donut inside. Have I mentioned that I love teenagers lately? Especially teenagers in the afternoon on a friday? Anyway, after work I came back home and finished my pile of papers.
And that, thus far, has been the extent of my day. Now I must write a paper for class and read a bunch of student stories. I am also working on a story that my Professor recommended I submit for publication to a campus magazine so off I go. Chase is dropping by later after work, so I do have that to look foward to.
