It's Too Darn Hot
"But when the thermometer goes way up ..." The song is true. It is too darn hot, and I think things have no choice but to cool down. Yellow's girlfriend is coming back on Friday, and although we had some good visit yesterday I know it will be much harder to keep this friendship happening with a girlfriend around. Also, Blue hasn't called me in a while. I'm sure it's because I haven't answered when I saw him on the caller ID (I always had someone else around then!) and I haven't called him. I'll have to make sure I flirt with him tonight. Red, on the other hand, is getting harder to send home at nights. He comes over after work, which is about midnight, and I'm getting tired of the "wake him up and send him home" battle. I think a combination of the heat and my new allergy meds, with the drowsiness side-effet, have made me be too tired to care.

Actually, the other day Red turned to me and said "I think that guy with the beard likes you." It took me a while to figure out that he was talking about Yellow. I was able to easiy pass that off by telling Red that Yellow is dating someone else. It's true, I didn't lie, but I also know that Yellow does like me. He's just smart enough to know to not get attached to me 'cause my heart belongs to White.

Lightning Storms

Oops, I thought I had updated since my fourth report. Sorry. I had a wonderfully fabulous Yellow weekend. Saturday, I played a five hour game of Risk in the park. It was great flirting fun, and it ended up with me winning by taking yellow down. (There were three other players...) After Risk we went to see MIB II, and Tommy Lee Jones is still fantastic! After that I turned down shooting off fireworks with my roomate and her boyfriend for one on one cuddle time with Yellow. Both happily and curiously unfortunately I had decided last Monday that I would not kiss him, given the opportunity. I had plenty of opportunities and, for the first time in making this kind of decision, I stuck to it! I amaze myself!

Then, Sunday was also great. After church (Yellow attends my same church) we went for a walk and read and took a nap in the park. We then had dinner, and talked some, and then went back for prayer. Yellow told me that he was gonna have to put a stop to hanging out with me so much because I was too addicting. (How's that for a twisted compliment.) His long-distance-relationship girl comes back from Montana on Friday. The biggest problem is that I know this girl and I really like her, so I'm just gonna have to agree with him. He also said he had to try to figure out why a girl like me came into his life. He said it was like the current weather situation, there was a cold front and a hot front coming at the same time. Was this ever a prediction! A HUGE lightning storm hit that night. So this may be close to the end of the real fun with Yellow, but who knows. Girls always seem to get in the way of my friendships [with guys], but I think I'm going to at least attempt to maintain a friendship with him.

Better post. Red just pulled in the driveway.
