Real quick like
I talked to Joey on Friday. The reason he had been silent on the matter was that he was down in California for vacation/work (he was checking out FedEx ramps down there to see if he wanted to move, he doesn't, surprise surprise), which he had told me he was not going to do which is why I thought he was just being an avoidant jerk. But he changed his mind at the last minute and went, so yeah. He's not really being SO much of a jerk... just sort of cold, and he may or may not be in love with Ashley. Or about to be. Or something. Which mostly doesn't make sense to me because if he could really be so into her, why didn't he just choose her over me back in August? She made it really clear that she wanted him. So why pick me, only to be with her now and possibly think she's the one? If she was the one, he would have known back then. He wouldn't have said all those nasty things about her a couple months ago. I think he's just so afraid of not being loved, he'll love anything that loves him. What a waste.
Yesterday I took the first load of furniture and things to my new house! I'm so excited. But I'm also coming to terms with the fact that I have way too much stuff. Kathy came over and to help me go through clothes. We got through a lot of them, but definitely not all. Once the clothes are sorted, I'll be able to get to the rest of the stuff in my room, and figure out what I'm doing with it. After I'm all moved out of the Bellevue place and don't need a place to sleep here, I'm giving my twin bed to my mom for her guest room (that's where the trundle that goes with is now, anyway), and I already have the futon set up as my bed in Queen Anne. It's not as grown-up as a real bed, like with a mattress and box spring, but at least it's bigger, and can more comfortably fit guests. I'll feel more comfortable inviting someone to spend the night, anyway. Which is positive.
Last night I felt dirty and tired so I didn't go to Justin's concert with the band that I helped do a clap track for and they inadvertently recorded my giggle, then kept it on the album (have I told that story? I guess that's the jist of it). It would have been fun, but I didn't feel like looking pretty, or getting on a bus. So instead Kathy and I went and got some Casa D's (that's what I'll miss most about Bellevue, burritos), and went to the new place, and watched some tv until the guys started arriving home. Eventually we ended up with a modest gathering of seven (though Kate, Dan's girlfriend, went to bed early, so more like six) and we played an awesome game called Botticelli. You think of someone and give the first letter of their last name, then everyone has to think of people with that last initial and ask a leading question about them. If you can guess who they're thinking of their turn is done (though it doesn't go around the circle, anyone can guess at any time), but if you can't guess then they get to ask you a yes or no question about the person you're thinking of. They ask you questions hoping to trick you, so they get a yes or no question about your person to create the fact set that leads them to who you're thinking of. I don't know if that's a clear enough explanation, but I have to babysit in five minutes so I don't really have time to improve it. Hopefully you get the idea. It's really fun.
Alright I'm running so late, but I'll update more later, because there's going to be a party next Saturday!! Keep it open.
