RUMMY BEARS! TTYL!
Ok coming back to this now. The rummy bears are delicious. I'm excited about the party this Friday - it'll be nice to see some people and catch up. Sadly it's Monday though and Friday is a bit far off at the moment. Apparently I'm accepted to school again - not the last one because no thanks but a local community college and I'm gonna be at least starting in sign language interpreting. I'm pretty excited about it. If everything goes well and quickly in these next few days, I may be registered for classes beginning October 20th. It would be nice to not have to start paying back loans at least :-/
Just taking a short break from cleaning the house now. It's not that it's messy messy, there's just a shit ton of stuff out of place in the living room is my overall assessment. I also am itchy and need to shave my face. I've lost like 4 pounds almost in a little over a week! It's exciting stuff! I've been going to the gym with Jared and in the meantime getting my Wii Fit on. I have to say, I admire Wii Fit's snarky attitude - it truly makes my day after I get over the self-loathing it induces. Following a little workout, Wii Fit and I can look back and laugh about things like the time it made an "ooh" noise when I stepped on the balance board or the time it accused me of lying about why I've gained weight. Good times.
This stuff is yummy. Finished it up last night. I'm not sure if I've talked about the gay bar before, but it's typically an older crowd. I had the luxury of having my ass grabbed multiple times by a drunk 41-year-old who was incredibly obnoxious and invasive. I was not a fan; although, Jared and I both got free drinks out of it AND $4. It was a little odd. I feel that this experience is just a glimpse into the bullshit that women have to deal with at bars and if that's the case, bravo for putting up with the bullshit. It takes a lot of courage to continue to live your life with creepy asshats all around so kudos for working in a shitty system. I'm hoping that the system changes and I'll do what I can to help out :-/. Apparently this guy tips people and puts money in their shirts and pants if he likes their singing and thinks they're cute. I was really confused when he asked me why I wasn't tipping Jared as he was on stage. I really didn't know what he meant. I figured because he was a little pervy, he probably meant why wasn't I giving Jared a blowjob while he was up on stage. Not that I don't see the bar as that kind of place necessarily, but I was thoroughly confuddled (I think this is the first time I've ever used this word). It was overall a good time and I'm glad that the guy eventually got lost. Jared also had an interesting experience. Since he isn't blogging right now, I'll take the reins on this one. So Jared walks into the bathroom and he gets followed by this older gent. I'm not sure how old he was, but it becomes a little clearer when Jared explains that this guy told him that he looked like his dead grandson ... And that he was cute ... A few disturbing layers to that info. First of all, bathroom convos can be a little awkward in their own right. I mean, two grown ass men standing there pissing - it's an odd environment for a conversation. Secondly, "you look like my dead grandson" - HOW IS THIS A DECENT CONVERSATION STARTER?! And follow-up; calling someone "cute" after you've told them they look like a dead relative is creepy. Also, what does that say about your relationship with your dead grandson, sir?! Jared let him know that he was at the bar with his boyfriend. Old boy tells him that he should dump his bf and go home with him. So awkward things all around really. And after leaving the bathroom, old dude talked to his friends who basically told him that his greeting (ya know, the you look like my cute dead grandson line) is no way to get to know someone and "it wouldn't work." Dude chases down Jared from the bathroom, intertwines his arm with Jared's and lets him know this. As they walk away, old boy says "ok see you at my place later, Jared!" And Jared walks off. Interesting people out there.
I've been getting rid of the things that I got from my old school the past few days. It may seem a bit childish and I feel some legit loss in getting rid of some of the great shirts, and it also is a bit cathartic as well. Mixed feelings - surprise - life. I wanna finger paint for some reason. But I should clean some more.
I've received two big bits of news from family members lately. It's truly an interesting time for quite a few of us now. I'm hoping things work out well. Oh! Shit that reminds me that it's my great aunt's birthday today so I should follow up on that. I hope I get a job soon so I can actually spend money to make ends meet, first of all, but to eventually buy people gifts at some point too. I couldn't afford to get my nephew a gift and the following week I couldn't afford to drive back to my hometown to celebrate my aunt's birthday - LAAAAAAME. I've been good about not turning to comfort food though hahaha ... For real though. I could have gained a lot more weight through all this and I've actually lost some of what I gained so yay for me.
GO TIME! More cleaning to do.
Also, I would love to know anything about the people who stumble across and actually read this blog, so if you're able to, please leave me something in the comments. I would appreciate it!
