Dinner with his parents last night. I'm determined to make nice with these people for his sake.
Work today. Boo. Looks like I'll be working late today and tomorrow because I need rent money, and I have to take off Sun-Tues to drive to SoCal and back.
I need to check to see whether my email has stopped posting my real name. If you don't...

I can't wait to see all of you!!!

Please don't "agree to disagree" with me. I think maybe you misjudge me. I don't even want to disagree with you! Educate me!
My girlfriend is a teacher in a poor suburban school nearby. I learn a lot from her, and I've been reading about Prop 98, but I'm sure my knowledge isn't total. Seems you know something that I'd like to now too.
See, I've been trying to learn because I need to understand it to poke holes in Arnold. A lot of people make flawed and simplistic attacks on him, and I'd like to do better. I think I know more than most teachers I know about what's going on with California's education budget, but I've got more to learn.

OK, so.....
I don't want to relive the rest of last week by updating with a detailed account of what happened on our trip home. Suffice to say, I love him and being around him. His mother? Not so much. (As in, I don't love her, not that she doesn't love him).
Sunday night was karaoke with SGSF. Yesterday was the hangover from hell.

When are you gonna come visit me?
caroline:
Thanks!! 
Woohoo! Home again and safe and sound, so it's time for a long update! Get out the pencils, kids, there's going to be a test aferwards.... 
OK......
Prom weekend was awesome. Volkov came into SF on Thursday, and we went to dinner. He's cuter than I even remembered. He didn't let me pay for my food, which was the beginning of many chivalry-related spats throughout...

A busy old weekend, huh?

In Phoenix. Long few days. West Texas is a hellhole. Anyone who tells you different is a liar. The boy is wonderful, the traveling is not. More to come when I have real internet access. I was supposed to be home tonight. I have two more days of driving.

Yay!
I like pink. And I did like your dress (and, as I said, your hair). I was just really drunk and remember no details. I had about a half-hour long conversation with obd and can't remember a thing we talked about. And I know my girlfriend got up on stage at some point, but if you asked me why or what for, I would have zero clue. None.

OK, quick update with the details:
Wednesday rocked because:
- It was beautiful and sunshiney outside.
- I had the day off.
- I found the perfect skirt for my prom outfit. I won't be naked, but I also won't be uncomfortable (been feeling a tad pudgy lately).
- I went out dancing.
- I read books in the sunshine in the afternoon.

Yay, you finally sound really happy! Do let us know what's going on, k?
perdy:
I'm sooooo happy for you
This weather is insane. This morning, I walked over to the grocery in the sunshine, feeling very smug about living in sunny CA. Just now, the sky darkened, and literally opened up with massive amounts of hail and rain, and now thunder and lightning!!! 
My downstairs neighbors were caught in it, as was the old lady who parks next to me in the garage (she,...

I've been awake for three hours. On my day off. That's right, 4am. No reason. Fuck insomnia.
I still don't know what I'm going to wear to prom.

OHH! Ok. Yea...in that case I am VERY sorry. The discussion was just between us so I just didn't want to clutter up the rest of the groups topics with our chat.
I considered continuing the conversation via the message (email) option but I thought it would just be easier to use our profiles. I never even considered that might be a problem.

Today was okay. I did something nice for someone in the morning, and the rest of the day I was in a good mood. Hardly made any money at work, but it was fine because I was happy.
Went to Target and bought pink shoes. Just in case. I need to figure out what to wear to prom. I bought an outfit, but now I'm...

You'd know exactly what I'm talking about then. It's just an invasion of privacy.
Hope the rest of your day was as good as it started.
And good luck figuring out what to wear for prom. I'm glad I'm a guy. I just wear jeans and a t-shirt everywear.

I'd have to confess to being predominantly a 'rock' fan. But I have a pretty open mind to listening to anything.
Blimey! Erin is a name we have discussed. Pooks (gf) doesn't think it is Irish enough for my criteria! lol... But COME ON... it is a cool name, right? And we just don't have any Erins over here. It suits you well.
I play goalkeeper. When I was a younger and fitter individual (during the war) I played left side of midfield. But I leave all the running about to the younger guys now. Our league is five-a-side and it's so fast.

If your cinco de Mayo was half as good as mine, you had a fabulous time.
First, I managed to get back to sleep before getting ready for work. I got 2 more hours of sleep, which made a world of difference.
Next, I had a good day at work. I made good money, wore my new, cute outfit and the shoes I broke down...

we're all set with tickets, thanks for thinking of us!
glassheart:
the trooper liked the outfit.
I feel sick. I shouldn't be awake, but have been for almost an hour now. The cat woke me up, and I have a tummyache, so I can't get back to sleep. Blargh.
