Very interesting development. At least I'm not as busy with Yellow or Blue right now, but hmmmmm. Something's gotten into Red lately. I don't know what it is. He's been pretty strict in the past with his call that we don't do anything more than just cuddling when watching movies. Well, yesterday he held my hand in a public place. He hasn't done something like that since our first date back in May. Also, when I tease him about being such a work-a-holic he usually just says how he needs the money. But lately he's said things like "I'm beginning to realize that" or "I know!" And I mentioned something about him not coming over so late at nights and he said "but then I wouldn't get to spend time with you!" It doesn't bother him that much that most of the time he spends with me is while he's sleeping. But then he invited me (inviting me = a new thing... I usually invite myself to social things he's doing, it's not that I'm pushy, he just doesn't think of inviting me) anyway, he invited me to go visit his mother in a few weeks. And then last night, he suddenly up and kissed me. That hasn't happened for a long time. Usually I'm ok with kissing, and it doesn't throw me off or anything. But we used to kiss, and then he decided that we wouldn't. He said if we did more than just cuddling that we'd have to stop spending the time together that we do. But he's the one who chose to kiss me! So do I go for it and kiss him back, and enjoy myself? I'd like to say yes, but then what if he suddenly turns back and says, "ok, we can't hang out anymore if we're gonna do this." I don't wanna lose his friendship. It's not worth losing that over a kiss.... oh help.

Hi ho hi ho workie workie - oh!


I began a post yesterday, but forgot to save it before I took off to the store to get ice cream with Red. This was at midnight. Have I mentioned that's around the only time I see him? Like you stereotypical red, he is a total workoholic. Four jobs! Well, two of them are pretty much the same thing (cleaning offices) but they're with two different clients. I can have four jobs, as long as it's not more that two jobs in one day, and not all day! Red gets up at 6am goes to job one, then the video store at 10, Walmart at 4-close, and then goes and cleans another office. He only takes Thursday evenings off to play, and Sunday's for church. I think he's absolutely nuts!

Technically I guess you could say I have three jobs. But I never go to one of them because the hours are optional, and I totally don't consider teaching dance a job. Sure sometimes I get a little bit of money for it, but that always either goes right back into dancing, or saves me from starving when I'm low on funds. It's a good thing I'm very frugal with money. I don't spend on many things, or spend frequently, but I do save up and blow all my money at once . . . like I did for my fabulously wonderfully cute new imac. Most of my money goes straight to bills, which seem to keep getting higher and higher. Medical bills sure are icky!

Yellow leaves to visit his girlfriend in Montana this weekend. White still hasn't told me whether or not he's gotten a job, but hasn't said he's coming to see me either. I wish he would get up here! Blue calls rarely (yeah!) and just checks in on me to see if I'm doing ok. (I've been having some medical problems lately.) Sweet caring Blue.

Well, I must force myself to go do laundry. I can't even see my bedroom floor, and I hate that! But more to reality, I'm out of underwear and socks. And I can't just go buy more 'cause I already did that this summer.

Good News! I spent ALL day yesterday dancing. Yellow's dance lesson went well, and the breakfast burrito he made me was yummy. He brought these special garlicy tortillas that made the whole thing just yummy! I proposed the idea of being my dance partner for a competition in November. He has a long way to go, but I also think he may just have the drive and desire to get good. We'll see.
I convinced Red to take me to his church's dance. It turned out to be just like an old fashioned fold dance. Virginia Reel and everything! My other theory is that he just doesn't think about others enough to remember to invite them to things. It's possible. But he was great while we were there. While I sat out on dances I would scope out girls who weren't getting asked much for him, so he could try to make sure to give everyone a chance to dance. I didn't get asked by anyone but him, but I'm sure that has much to do with the fact that I showed up with him, because I'm cute! Who wouldn't want to dance with me. :) Also, I don't know if there was a single boy close to my age there.
After stopping for some breadsticks and hotwings at PizzaHut (I wasn't too impressed with the food) we found my church dance by rolling down the windows and following the music through the fields. I've never been to a dance that played so much heavy metal. I mean, even if you life the stuff, how in the world do you dance to it!? But we still had a good time. Red got groovy and Yellow showed up too. Yellow IS exactly like me the male version! He was really silly, and a social butterfly, and doing crazy interperative dances all over the place. I haven't done that for a few years, but that was always me when I used to be a regular at church dances. Now, as much as I try to have fun, it's just not the same as the experience of dancing with a partner. I LOVE swing dancing!
THE END (for today)
