Randomivity


I have today off!! Working at a university really, really rocks. :) I completely forgot about snow days-I get paid snow days!!

Sadly, it's not going to be a very relaxing day. I have to pack the rest of my apartment and paint the walls. Moving day is fast approaching. (Sunday)

I received a call from a therapist who works just down the street from the school. I see him next Friday. I wish it were sooner, but I'm grateful to have gotten in at all. He sounds nice.

Friends and family are the greatest. The funniest thing a friend said to me regarding him: He's a dick with ears. That visual is priceless and it makes me laugh.

The other funny thing came from my littlest sister. She saw what she *thought* was MY Facebook status which said something like "I am numb" so she wrote: "Did something happen? Text if you want to talk. I love you." Later, she realized that she did not post that on my wall, but instead, on a random boys wall!! She doesn't even know him!

The other day my chiropractor squeezed the skin between my thumb and index finger and said, "Ahh...eating some hard to digest food, are we?" Then he pushed on my stomach a few times, pinched the skin again and said, "That's better". I had sushi for lunch, so I don't know what he was talking about, but I can tell you that I had to go to the bathroom when I got home. Too much info, maybe, but it's still kinda cool.

"...Wait...you're gay?!" got lots of laughs yesterday. I am pretty funny sometimes.

Registration for next semester is ending next week so all of my dean's students are calling to be advised. They're so cute. And also, brilliant. It's amazing to listen (he doesn't shut his door).

The other day I was walking through the campus center getting some lunch when I was suddenly hit with the fact that I was probably the dumbest person in the place! Some of the conversations I overheard were unreal. How did these kids get so smart?

I still need a bed frame, a dinette set for my kitchen (2 seater) and a dining room table and chairs. Eventually I'd also like a futon for my small guest room/office but that will wait. I've been scanning Craigslist like mad hoping to score a great deal. So far, nothing.

I don't want to hate him. I don't want my good memories to leave me, but I'm having trouble trusting the feeling I had that he cared about me and that I was important to him. Because, well...you know what he did. Was everything a lie? Was I really just there until someone better came along?

I also really want my friend back. (And then my brain says, "Was he ever really your true friend if he did this to you?")

You know those colon cleanses? I wish there was one for your heart.

I have often wished for one of those for my own heart but I can tell you that over time it will get better. It may not be in the amount of time that you'd like but it will get better.

And no - he wasn't your friend - he was a dick with ears who knew exactly what he was doing and what his intentions were all along. There is no excuse for that and you are better off without him even though your heart still wants to hold onto him for awhile longer.

Trust me, I understand completely.

There is a cleanser for your heart. It's called time.

You will be ok. I promise. I just can't promise when.
