    Josh surprised me at work yesterday. I had no idea he was coming to get me, because he doesn't have a phone right now, and then at the end of the day, a day in which I had a horrible migraine and had also sliced my finger open in the morning with a serrated bread knife, I looked over to my right and suddenly, there he was! I got so freaking excited! He was in the area while doing a Poker Run thing as a benefit for his brother, and he was like, "I'm gunna go see Arlene." We just went to hang with his parents and I met other parts of his family and it was a lot of fun. I'm so happy. :wub:


    ...And then we snuck onto the Aerodrome property to fulfill one of his fantasies. :lol:

    All in all, great end to a sucky day. :)

    So I like my friend. I like her, and have liked her since about February when we starting hanging out for the first time after knowing eachother at work for two years. It was weird of me to feel this way because I usually take long to fall, but it was almost as if after I hung out with her that first time...part of me felt such a connection with her that I wanted to make it more than "just friends" because my heart perhaps felt it was the right way to go.

    Problem is, she never knew this. I would flirt with her from time to time, she'd flirt back but it always came off as more like innocent fun and never me trying to get her to go out with me. Perhaps it was my fault for never being completely clear on my intentions, but I was scared because I didn't want to be disappointed again or destroy a friendship if the feelings weren't mutual and caused an awkwardness between the two of us. So I never told her.

    It should be noted then that the only way she even found out recentely that I did like her, was that one of my loose mouthed friends blabbed it off to her, in which she subsequently asked me about it and I confessed everything. She told me she was extremely flattered, shocked and surprised, but that I need not worry about our friendship getting weird because she understands the way the heart works and would never let a simple crush affect her opinion of me.

    I felt this was great she could be so incredibly understanding, but I didn't quite get if this meant she felt the same way or that she was happy to hear I felt that way, but just wanted to remain friends.

    So the past few weeks I've just continued to hang out with her, flirting here and there, being a sweetheart and hoping that something could develop past what we already have if there is any possibility for it.

    Well, now things just got complicated. I found out from some friends that she currently has her sights on this one guy who's a few years older than her, but from every aspect seems far more "meant for her" than I ever could be.

    The guy has a career in the same field she went to college for (criminal justice). Their personalities seem to be identical (silly, yet calm and easygoing) and it's because of this that I know I must make a difficult yet very mature decision.

    I'm deciding that I'm just going to work on staying her friend, get over my feelings, and just wish for her success with this guy because I know when two people are perfect for eachother and this is one of those cases. I want her to be happy (because she's helped me through some tough stuff the past few months) and if this guy is bringing her that happiness then I'm all for it.

    It's tough for me to 'give up' when I am interested with someone, but I know this is the right decision.

    Besides, doing something good like this will mean I'll too be rewarded for it down the road. Karma always works one way or another.

    I don't know yet. It was basically just a message on MySpace. I haven't heard back from her. I'd have called her or whatever by now but I don't know her number. She actually lives really close to me too.

    That's it - I'm done. No more of this negative bullshit. Life's too short for me to keep letting people (myself included) bring me down all the time. I'm sick of being angry and depressed. I finally have some direction in my life, and I'm going to make damn certain that I put as much effort as I can into making my future more fulfilling. Fuck all of that pessimism shit; I wanna be all about the good juju.

    I know, I know. I'm just kind of nervous about what might happen because this is the first girl I've tried to talk to in almost six months.

    She did send me a message back earlier today and seemed genuinely interested in being my friend, so I'm kind of excited about it. :)

    Edit:
    Tim, I hear you. I've got to stop being so negative myself. It's nice to know you're actually putting your foot down, though. I hope I get to that point soon.

    I am so pissed off at my dad's boss. He tells my dad he has to come in on his day off this Friday for a meeting. Ummm....we're going away to Atlantic City starting Friday and won't be back until mid-afternoon Sunday. My dad told his boss this and asked if the meeting could be early morning so it won't interfere when we're leaving and his boss said some bullshit comment about how when boss's say to do something, it gets manipulated to work in favor for the employee rather than the boss. What the fuck?!?

    To make matters worse, when I was searching for jobs for myself a few days ago, I saw a job posting for the company my dad works for in our location. Position for Staff Pharmacist (my dad's job title) and effective date of start is immediately. It was posted on 7/25, last Friday. My dad didn't know about this at all. I finally told him about a half hour ago and he is in utter shock. Now he's thinking, as am I and my mom, that he is getting fired. My dad has done NOTHING to get fired over. It's almost like my dad is in the same situation as I was in at my previous job, except I quit and didn't get fired. Now, were just ASSUMING he's getting fired based on the job posting and the meeting between him and his boss that's going to happen on Friday. It just all seems to go hand-in-hand though. It's not right and it's not fair. If my dad is being fired, I just hope he has the balls to ask why and ask for some good hard facts.

    We're supposed to go away for the weekend and if he gets fired, it will totally ruin the trip. The fun will be sucked out of it completely and I'm not even going to want to have fun. One thing is for sure though, since this meeting is on Friday and I happen to be seeing The Killers with my family on the first night in Atlantic City, if this meeting messes up my chances on getting up front or missing any part of the show, I will personally kill my dad's boss....or at least let my voice be heard in some way shape or form. Fuckass.

    Ugh, I feel sick about this whole situation. I just hope that it's nothing. I really really hope. In the meantime, I guess I'll be looking for Pharmacy jobs for my dad.

    Shit. That really does mess up with one's head. Ask your dad to approach the boss?

    Well my dad said he was going to call his boss tomorrow but then I persuaded him not to. Because....what if my dad starts something over nothing? I mean, it could be nothing or it could be something. We don't know yet. That's why my dad was asked to come in for a meeting with his boss on Friday. I said to my dad to wait until Friday to discuss whatever needs to be discussed. I don't know if that's the right thing to do or not.
