Windy!
Today was sooo windy and so beautiful. It is getting a bit cool right now, I am in the living room watching TV with the curtains closed the the blinds down, it is so peaceful. It makes me want to take a nap… that and the lack of sleep I have been getting haha.
Love ya

There is a difference in observations and judgments.
Can We Still Be Friend?
So today had its ups and down, as most any day does. I went to class, w00t, sucked being back in school haha. When I got home I started a load of laundry, fun fun right? Then down stairs and outside to hang out with Meghan and Seema. They were basking in the glorious sunshine. I posed the question of what there was to eat sparking an impromptu bar-b-que.
Jim, Jenny and Patrick joined us after a while and the fun really picked up after that. I love those people haha. They had all been talking to Brother Jed, apparently having a grand ol’ time because I got two phone calls to join them. It did not work out for me though, I was too busy grilling and getting some DVD burned for my grandmother, dealing with a dying cellphone and preparing for a 5:00 meeting that I never even went to.
It was such a beautiful day that we all decided it would be so silly to go inside just because we had eaten our grilled goods… So we went to the refrigerator and grilled just about everything we had that was grillable, and then some! The day was amazing.
It was really fun. It started out with a burger and then two more and then a veggie burger and then veggie-chicken nuggets (yes, nuggets)… then potatoes and some shrimp with two chicken breasts and then some braughtwursts followed by some more hamburgers and then a half chicken and artichokes… A total of like 4-5 hours of grilling, it was a blast.
However, the mood was busted when I got a message that my brother was back in the hospital. He has a blood virus that is making him really sick, really really sick. I then showered up and went off to my fraternity meeting.
Geoff showed up a few mins late with his new Gucci sandals and a darling t-shirt. I personally would not have spent as much for the sandals (they remind me of the sandals Jesus wore hehe) but to each his own. One thing that I do know is that Geoffrey is actively working to not be my friend. I express a want to have coffee or hang out and he will only brush it off as a possibilility in the future, nothing ever in the now… He will not even commit to a day or week. I have offered it to him, any time I am not in class and he won’t give me the time of day. I love this guy, he ignores me constantly. He told me he wants to be friends, I am making the steps, I am always optimistic around him, I am always trying to be the friend and he brushes it off. Why? He will not even share pictures from Chicago with me or really share anything. He won’t even give me back all of my things still, he keeps putting it off.
I have a knot in my stomach typing all of this because I doubt that it will help our situation but maybe if he reads it, he will make a move to be my friend? Love you Geoff, please make a step to jump start our friendship because all my moves, a cd, phone calls, emails, attempts to talk to you… they all fail.
Back to the positive…
So the night ended with a date with Matt. We started out at the Artisan, as usual. I bumped into a few friends there, Leslie, Dylan and Travis. They all looked fantastic, the norm for them, we chatted about life, liberty and the pursuit of equality… haha. It was great, we finished off the talk by looking at doggies in sweaters online… LMAO. Matt and I then headed off to get some dinner. Once we got to the restaurant we both realized/admitted that we were not really hungry.
We went to the Berg, bumped into a few friends of mine and sat down to eat food we did not really want. Turns out the waitress did not charge me for anything, she wrote out that my meal was free! What is that about? haha, she was fantastic hehe. We were at the Berg for a LONG time, then we walked around town and finally headed to his car to talk and drive around. It was 2:00 am before I got out of his car and into mine. Another great evening with Matt.
Dave gets back into town SOMETIME today. I was going to pick him up in KC but I have a doctor appointment at 4:00 so I can’t do that, sadly. I can’t wait to see him back here haha, he rocks. Hmmm… yeah, so…
Britany and I talked for 1.5 hours last night, I think we got off the phone around 4:00 am. It was a really fun conversation. It was also the first time that Britany and I ever had a long phone conversation.
Anywho, woke up feeling my life empty, hopefully I can fill it up again today as I did yesterday.
Love to you all - you especially!
So Much Emotion
I am so full of emotion right now, positive and negative. Sadly the negative is taking over. A year ago this weekend I met Geoff’s family for the first time, not the immediate family but the extended family. I loved them from the start. They were such a blast. I remember playing cards with his parents and later in the summer we played dominoes together. His dad is really good with cards, so is his grandmother. I remember all of these wonderful times with his family and I find myself desperate for that again…
I miss those times with Geoff especially.
Let us get into what happened for Justin today.
Around three in the morning I get a knocking on my front door. A friend is there, his car broke down infront of my apartment so he asked if he could stay the night. With him is an interesting character, I was certainly taken by surprise to see him here. They were scheduled to sleep in the living room where previously Jim and Ryan were going to finish The Incredibles and fall asleep all cute and cuddley. Change of plans brought Jim and Ryan to my bed with me, the second time this month haha. After about thirty minutes of this the door is rapped upon again. It is Brandon looking for his keys… Apparently one of our guests had his keys. Turns out the keys are just missing and he decided to look more the next day… Ring the door bell goes and Darrin appears. He is looking for Brandon and they leave together with one of our guests, dropping everyone off at home leaving just the one here. He slept soundly on the couch and Jim, Ryan and myself all slept “soundly” on my bed. It was fun, still curious as to what brought everyone here though…
Woke up, showered, (I fixed my computer last night while we watched Finding Neverland) got ready for the day. Jenny’s parents came into town so Meghan and Jenny joined them for Easter Brunch. Jim and I headed to our own Easter lunch and saw Brandon at the same establishment we were patronizing. It was good food, my like second time to this place.
We head to Wal-Mart and buy next to nothing, off to Jim’s to unpack him. I originally said that I would only be there for a few minutes… that turned into hours. We TOTALLY re-did his dorm room and I just love it! The new layout looks fantastic, he has a queen sized bed now haha. It was such a blast.
I then met up with a friend for a bagel and coffee, back here we talked a good bit, about an hour, and then he headed out to study. Another friend brought over a fabulous German language musical entitled Yes Nurse, No Nurse. It was hilarious! I just loved it. Jenny and I helped him ready himself to see the guy he is dating, he was seeing him for the first time since break started. He looked dashing as he walked out of teh door. Jenny an dI watched Hercules as I cleaned my room and got stuff back in order. Trent came over and made us all smile as usual.
I have been sitting in bed for a few hours and just cannot all asleep. I am out of my sleeping medicine so I just don’t get to sleep tonight. It is awful.
Well, at the end of the carpet you always find a tack?
Good night my pets!

Miss you Dave, get back here!
I Went Home
So it is no mystery where Justin is. I am home. I did post a song about it of course.
I just love my parents. We had a fabulous day together, all three of us shopping at the mall, all three of us shopping at the grocery store, and all three of us gossiping as we all three cooked dinner; asparagus, filet mignon, portobella mushrooms in a red wine sauce, garlic mashed potatoes and for dessert my mom made vanilla-ginger creme brulee. Then we all three watched Shakespeare In Love. This was the last movie Geoff and I watched together I believe. We never finished it. I was close to tears watching the movie, it was a great movie. Everyone should watch it, Geoff you were so right!
I go home tomorrow, well I guess today technically. Jim is going to be back in town so I want to be there to welcome him to my apartment and I need to clean up after the uninvited party that was held there… bastards. I cannot believe that people would welcome themselves to our house while we were all out of town and party there, trash the place, drink everything and then some and think it would be ok… these were supposed to be our friends right? Whatever, assholes…
Speaking of assholes, I hear Dave had a talk with Andrew (Dave is not the asshole of course). Dave rocks, he made Chicago such a blast. I am forever glad that he joined me on my impromptu visit to the windy city, as it would be. Shout out to Dave, RAISE THE ROOF! haha
I miss Jenny like American Idol misses Mario…
Mario, oh Mario, where fore art thou new CD?
Geeze he is amazing
Born into Brothels = Awesome
So I really REALLY enjoyed Born into Brothels. This movie is just incredible. Go see it!
