Everything is Online

It took me a while to figure out what I was missing. I can't even keep my days straight.

Saturday wasn't all too eventful. I worked up front with Wes, and then Erich when Wes pulled him off the road. Erich was a little pissed off that Wes had done Jake a favor and given him a large delivery, which usually means a larger tip. Erich was saying that he had a family to support and it was a rather bastard move. He has a point there, but Wes and Jake kinda have a history. They stick up for each other a bit. Kind of like me and Abbi, but we actually do it right. Jake's not always ... there.

We made a lot of mistakes as a collective crew that night. I misread one ticket because the printer was running out of ink as well as paper. So red streaks across a strip of paper with faded ink was rather hard to read. Somehow I read both pizzas had a garlic butter crust when they were both supposed to be Cajun, and I read the pepperoni pizza as an R instead of a P, which is ripe olives. I confirmed what the remake was supposed to be with Jazmin - small pepperoni with garlic crust - and then threw it back in. When it came out again, Nate caught me as I was walking by and asked what was wrong with the pizza. That's when I learned it was supposed to be Cajun crust.

He was kinda being a sarcastic little thing Saturday. He was sprinkling Cajun powder on the crust, and I told him it would be easier if he just turned the whole thing upside down. "Oh, is that what I'm supposed to do?" he asked me. I don't think that was the only time he was sarcastic towards me, either. And if it was the only time that night, it wasn't the first time he's done that to me.

"That's a big bowl," I always tell him when he's washing, well, the big bowl. It's used to make our dough.

"Is it?" he asked right back the first time I went on about it.

I might have been high that night, so I just smiled and confirmed it like he was being straight with me.

See, I'm a sarcastic person myself. Sarcasm doesn't turn me off. He smiles at me and talks to me, at least. I consider that an accomplishment in and of itself.

Apparently I love smiles.

And then, when I was talking to Erich outside about how many tomatoes we had, Nate was in Jake's truck. I don't know what they were smoking, but I saw it as a weird picture. Sure, Jake's smoked in Nate's car before, but the two don't talk inside the shop. At all. Okay, Nate hardly talks in the first place, and Jake's been pretty quiet and removed as of late, but still. It's weird.

Not only was that weird, but Galya and Von were stealing each other's hats and pops or whatever. Von had tucked Galya's pop away in his shorts and Galya attacked Von and grabbed for her pop. It was, um, an interesting situation.

I like Von, though. He's a quick learner, he's competent, and he fits right into the crew. He's cute (though there is no way I'm dating a guy younger than me), friendly, and does his job. I don't know him all that well besides, but I have a feeling we'll both be sticking around Classic for a while.

I was talking to Abbi, and we've identified that I've taken Dewey's role. He used to be scheduled at the shop all of the time, as well as be able to do everything. He usually topped, but he could help me out with phones when I had a question. Well, that's kind of me now. I just won't be quitting and joining the Marines. I hope I get to see him before he goes back, though I doubt that that'll happen. He was supposed to be visiting Classic tonight. Well, Sunday night. It's kind of Monday right now.

I should be going to bed.

A couple more quick things, though I can almost guarantee they won't turn out quick. Though I'm doing well so far.

I don't know if it was lonely, if I'm giving up on getting Nate to open up to me, or what, but I responded to another Craigslist ad. This time, the guy actually answered me.

We emailed back and forth a couple of times, but then exchanged phone numbers, and we've been texting nonstop ever since. I got his number Saturday, we texted all night until around three (this is even after the clocks reset), texted all day today, and now we've made plans to meet and have something of a date.

The guy is adorable. He's been taking it easy on the flirting, but he's a geekier geek than I am, still has a social life, works in a movie shop, and every time I get a text from him, I smile. We just exchanged photos tonight, and he did say he was on the bigger side. As far as I can tell, he's not actually fat. Kind of like Nate. Oh dear, I did not just.... He has a very cute smile, though. His name is Jeff, he's 22 - which was originally outside of the range of age I was looking for, but his Craigslist post was too temping, and I'm glad I answered him - apparently six feet tall, and he's so very kind. I hope this actually works out between us. So far we've hit it off very well.

It took me over four hours to outline a Psychology chapter - a relatively short one, too - because I kept texting him, Olivia, and Abbi. Afterwards, I went to bed. He texted me good morning. Abbi's done that before, but she's the only person before. Jeff texted me good morning. XD

Then today I got the Inside Out video assignment done, as well as the multiple choice test. I drove Mom and Joe over to this guy's house to get Joe a new guinea pig, since Shaggy died. That little guinea pig is the cutest thing ever. I swear. Then, after dinner (I actually ate dinner with my family), I finished the Psychology essay test. I feel like I did well. Despite not having really looked at any of those chapters. Kinda sad.

I should have done candidate research, or research for my Composition essay, but I didn't. I guess I'm doing candidate research and the lab write-up tomorrow, and I hope I can find a couple more sources for the research essay. I'd like to get a page or two written. Then Tuesday I can finish up the essay.

Thing is, I also have to catch up with Revolution before it comes on tomorrow. Because I'll be watching that. I can at least keep up with one show.

Ohmydear! I wonder, if things go well with Jeff and I Wednesday, if he watches Dexter. If he can watch Dexter. He is a college student, too. But he's living on his own. Unlike me. Hehe.

Anyway, I wanted to keep it quick. Since I really should go to bed.

And I guess I'll be figuring out what to do for Calculus right before class again. Yipee. Why the fuck do I procrastinate so much?

Oh! Real quickly, I finally went through Last.fm, listened to it all through outlining the Psychology chapter, and downloaded the tracks that I "loved" tonight. I now have new music and can't wait to listen to my phone tomorrow to and from school.
