An update a day, keeps the crazies away.
I don’t know why I wrote that, but that’s okay. Suffice to say that my date didn’t occur at all on Wednesday night. That disappointed me greatly. But, happily, I remade plans at the last minute and was able to spend some special time with SK. [My new Abrev for Stephen K.]
It seriously made me so much happier, after I was bummed and moody, to just sit and chill with SK. We talked and talked. And as I talked, it felt like all my frustrations began to melt away. Before the end of the night, I was giddy [as I SAID at the bookstore to SK…] from being with him. I don’t know why, but SK has this effect on me. It’s pretty weird.
Steve and I hung out with Stephen after Crossroads closed and Steve could no longer watch chess. We walked and talked briefly [about crazy sex that I really don’t remember…] , and then it was time for SK to go.
Steve and I were hungry, so we got food and then went home. I went to sleep as rested deeply. I’m feeling a lot less depressed today, which I think is a first in this week. But I haven’t dealt with anybody outside of work, and generally work RARELY depresses me. It usually makes me happier. Though, Cheryl tried to say that she felt happy/excited/nervous energy from me around 5:00 yesterday, and that couldn’t have been further from how I actually felt at that particular slice in time.
*shrugs* I don’t know.
Regardless, I’ve felt the need to distance myself from people lately, and I don’t know why. I feel unreasonable about it all, but I guess it’s just my time to be to myself. However, talking with SK seemed to resolve a lot of tension I had welling up inside of me, and he turned pure sadness into laughter. I know this will make him feel special reading this, but really, it’s the complete and utter truth. Mad props to SK for making my life better and being the kind of friend that I needed.
THANK YOU!
So anyway. By Friday, things’ll be aight.
Though, because my plans were rescheduled and I didn’t get to go out with Jon, I will be doing this Friday evening after Bunny Slopes. And, Jon is meeting met AT Edge of Circle at 9PM. So, I'm hoping to have a free seat available. I'm being selfish.
Which means, ya’ll who do come with me get to go home directly after Bunny Slopes. Who all is coming --- for a head count for me? Please comment if you think you need a ride from me. [Inna is my one reserved gal… and I THINK Vicki, but I don’t really know.] I know I’m a bitch and it’s sad we can’t chill, but I’m a little gunshy from last weekend. Though, Steve now knows I plan on being out late Friday, I am sure the chances of 2 ppl being depressed rock bottom on the same day, and Chad's car breaking down is minimal. Still, for some reason: It really hit ME in a place that has lasted all week long.

Date: 2004-04-15 12:27 pm (UTC)Vicki... the only way she will "be there" friday night is in spirit.. or her voice on the phone. She left for New York today. This should make things easier when it comes to car seats. I don't know if Cheryl is coming this week..
Yeah.. last friday... depression thing (that I cut from my LJ right after I saw the two sit down and focus on reading it.. it kind of creeped me out...) and the car breaking down.. it was in no way fun. *sigh*
Oh, good.

Yeah
Date: 2004-04-15 03:35 pm (UTC)I'm still rather taken aback by how messed up it was, that may well have been one of the most horrible days for me in a several months, as far as depression hitting goes.
And then just all the tension that was in the air...not fun at all.
Maybe we all just need a moment to breathe! *breathes in fresh air* and a long walk. It's nice to get exercise to work off stress.

Date: 2004-04-15 09:13 pm (UTC)That means a lot to see you write that. :) Even though I don't think I get to see you as often as I'd like, I think our friendship is picking up from where it was left off at, as it were. But we are both busy people, so I can understand it.
I really mean it when I say that you're one of my closest friends. I just feel very comfortable around you, and I know that you'll listen to me bitch if I need to, or we'll have tons of fun hanging out together.
It's funny that I have that effect on you. :) Anytime you need that dose of craziness that makes you like that, just let me know. :)
Craziness and Stephen.

You are also a close friend, and I missed this friendship. I'm always here to listen to you bitch. :) *hugs* :D
Craziness and Stephen go hand in hand. YEAY!
I HOPE YOUR BODY FEELS BETTER!!! You were sounding pretty not so great. That's too bad. My best wishes to your recovery from the greasey greese!
