Sigh and Swoon

This weekend was quite fun.

On Friday, I gathered the troops for bowling. Hell froze over and Jack came out. Actually I saw Jack twice this weekend. Jack brought his new friend Matt who lives in Wixom with him. Matt was very nice and very fun. Anyway, we went to dinner and then went to the bowling alley. Jenn met us at the alley. We waited for a lane and after an hour, we still didn't get a lane, so we didn't get to bowl. My hot planning action failed me. Jay wanted us to go back to his place to bid on a Dell DJ on eBay, but I told him that he could go bid on it, or bowl. Take his pick. He then jokingly tried to guilt me about losing the DJ, so I used the cancer card, as I'm entitled to by all things holy and all things proper. On the way out, Matt asked me how I was doing with everything. It was the nicest, sweetest thing ever. I just met him and he seemed legitimately concerned.

Then we went to the bar. We met Jeff there. There was a great Wonder Woman mix and some fun music. They also gave away free CDs. Then I came home. It was a very fun night.

On Saturday, Mike called and asked if I wanted to go to Boogie Fever in Ferndale. I decided to go. I called Jenn and she came. So Mike, Jack, Jenn and I all went to Boogie Fever for Mike's friend's birthday. Beckie and her friend Susan, met us there. Susan was beautiful and so fun. So I was surrounded by Jenn, Beckie and Susan, three hot chicks on the dance floor. At one point we were dancing and this woman behind Jenn started elbowing her, and then ramming into jenn. She turned to jenn and told her to leave or she'd kick her ass. Now, this place was packed and it was a DANCE FLOOR. It's gonna be tight; get over it! Anyway, after several minutes, I traded with Jenn so she could hit me instead. She got mad and threw her drink on us, and Beckie got soaked. Beckie flew at her and grabbed her arm. She pretended like she didn't do anything. It was insane. The stupid ho was certifiable. Her friends tried to mitigate, but pretty much said they didn't know why she was crazy and didn't like her. Things cooled and she left the dance floor.

Beckie and Susan left after a while and soon after, we left too. We wanted to go to Q but there was a cover and it made no sense to pay since it was after one. So we walked down 9 mile, and went into this empty, quieter bar called SoHo. I guess it was a gay bar, as you could tell from the energy drink called "Gay Fuel" they sold, and the two guys making out. But really there were only like 10 other people there, and nothing else screamed "gay". Anyway, of course Jenn started flirting with the bartender named Anatoli. He's Russian. He goes by Tolly. He's straight and loved Jenn, of course. She got his number. It was really fun and a nice place to talk. And I had a great martini.

Then we went home. It was a great weekend. Next weekend is Jay's birthday. We're probably going to Ann Arbor to go bowling again. I think that Ashley is coming too. So that will be fun. I have to buy Jay a present. I had a good idea, but I can't afford what I really want. I need another good idea. Hmmm....

I haven't talked to my counsellor in a few weeks. I've been pretty busy so I took some time off. I'll make an appointment for sometime in the week after next.

I also emailed Brian, who I haven't talked to since right after Christmas. His phone was disconnected. I also called Joe, but his phone was disconnected too. For some reason, I think I'll never talk to Joe again, unless he contacts me. I hope he does.

I know I should work this summer. I know I should work hard. But I was thinking about taking a month off and driving around the US. There is so much I want to see and I have some time to do that. I was thinking about going to Minneapolis, crossing the dakotas, montana, see Idaho, go to Vancouver, Olympia, Seattle, Portland and then down the California coast from San Francisco, down to Mexico. Then go through Arizona, New Mexico to Texas. I want to see Austin especially. Then go to New Orleans then to Florida. I'd like to see Brian near Pensacola, and then visit Amy and Michael in Tampa and then head north again. I'd love to forget everything and travel everywhere in the US that I've never been. I wish logic wouldn't seep in an prevent me from it. I wish sometimes I could stop thinking and reasoning, but flip a switch and just do what I feel. I just wish I could feel.
