The first thing Jordan knew was that it was definitely dark outside, and the wind had picked up to a point that the trees seemed to all be leaning in one direction. The perfect setting for a frightening image in a horror film. Though only this time Jordan wasn’t afraid.

The wind stopped. Everything stopped.

I said I wouldn't avoid, and I've been doing a pretty good job of it I think. It's not that I don't want to see her. I just think vibes were awkward and things were sort of up in the air for too long. So here comes Jordan to the rescue with the total non-avoiding ( Read more... )

I am almost pain free, had a check-up with the hospital and they said everything's good to go, so I'm expecting my back to stop being soreish in a couple days. Medicine makes me sleepy though. Doesn't really help when I'm trying to teach and almost fall asleep at my desk. Jenny usually throws something at me and I wake up. Guess that's what I get ( Read more... )

Hospital beds are only comfortable when you have a Taffy next to you, I'll tell you that. No, even better. Hospitals are only comfortable when there's a Taffy with you. Though I guess I'd rather not want to be able to say that. I'd never want either of us to be injured or sick or worse. If anything happened to her, I'd just...I don't know ( Read more... )

Jordan walked the perimeter of the cemetery slowly, maybe not such a good idea at night all alone. Though he was willing to take the risk. Tonight was one of those times. A visit to catch up, his own form of therapy in a way that allowed him to dwell on hard times as well as the good ones. Now, he was growing nearer to his destination and he ( Read more... )

Stefan called. Interesting conversation if I do say so myself. Interesting and awkward. He got some kind of message from Maddie telling him to not leave Taffy alone. He passed the word on and well, I still haven't exactly gotten over there. I was at the high school the other day setting up my new classroom and checking out some new guitars they ( Read more... )

Dinner went badly. Not much else to say.

Okay but c'mon, the girl said that she wanted Stef and I to...be together or something. That whole thing was weird enough. I like women - one in particular and how can she not understand that I only want to be with her. She thinks the whole thing can be fixed by a little guy on guy tlc? I just...what? ( Read more... )

Why won't my feet move?She's there, or she should be, and I have to go. But I feel frozen. I think I've touched the door handle four times already, but haven't stepped outside the apartment. I should be there by now. I should've been there when it happened. Or maybe I shouldn't have. I still don't know ( Read more... )

Things are better. I'm better, physically at least. Emotionally? Not really wanting to keep digging in my brain for that. It's nine days till I have her back. Too long to wait. Too long to find out if there's still an us ( Read more... )

It was nice to get some sleep finally, thanks to Jenny. Didn't exactly appreciate the whole jumping on me part, but I know she means well. I've made progress, such as getting up and eating food. Jen tried to push me to a movie but I couldn't. Somehow sitting in a dark theater watching boring pictures is just going to get me thinking again, which I' ( Read more... )
