Bald Jason's Musings
Thursday, June 8, 2006
I thought I might be coming down with a cold yesterday morning, or something; I'd just felt off all week long... But I feel fine now, and have felt fine most of yesterday. I made a cd for DJ including the one song he requested, plus 2 remixes and a mashup - then went with a mashup madonna theme. I was supposed to call Frank from work on my break, but I had forgotten his number at home, and Mark dropped me off so I didn't have the car to go get it. DJ later asked me if I wanted to go home early because they didn't need me, and I said that would be great, but I didn't drive. Heidi was in the store really early so I asked her if she could drive me home and she thought that was a great idea - she went in back to change, and I went back out front to finish the project DJ had given me. Well...I was ringing up people (like I always do), but there was this guy that always, ALWAYS gives me a hard time, and I kind of rushed him through...only he then wanted to do an exchange, which I just didn't think I could do without killing someone, so I asked Bobby if he could do the exchange. DJ then walked up and said: "Why don't you do it?" - and I couldn't say why because the guy was right there, so I said that I was just trying to finish the stuff that DJ had assigned me so I could get home, and DJ said that I should just leave then. He made it sound like I had just done something really horrible, and that I was somehow being cruel to Bobby, which wouldn't have been true, even if I was going for a smoke break, or going to count a drawer or any number of things that other people have done when they've asked me to finish a transaction. So I said I'd love to and went in back to get Heidi. When the guy left I explained the sitch to DJ, but even when he said he should have known better it didn't sound like he meant it - which pissed me off because he had just been a complete bitch to me.
Thankfully Heidi calmed me down in the car, and we talked about her trip to Chicago on Tuesday. Just before leaving the cook guy from Fridays came in with his son Elijah and told me he had said hello to Tracy for me, and we talked for a minute. Then as I was walking to Heidi's car (in the rain), Tracy called but I couldn't answer it because I was trudging through the storm. It was really pouring and I got soaked on my trip to & out of the car. I called Tracy back, and he was just saying hello. He was so drunk last night that he didn't even know that he had called, and much of what he said Tuesday night turned out to be untrue; he wasn't leaving for Chicago on Wednesday after all. He said we'd talk again soon, and he had to go. I called Mark to let him know I was home, then I called Frank, and left him a message.
I had a snack, and took a nap, which Frank woke me up from when he returned my call. Mark wasn't home, though it was almost 6:30pm. Mark called and I got him to come home and work so I could have the car, but it turned out I needn't have bothered, because Frank ended up coming here, and we didn't go anywhere; we just chatted in my room. It turned out very interesting. Seems he had heard of me before, from his ex-bf Bobby. As it turns out, I've heard about Frank from Bobby myself. Frank's middle name is Lee, and that's what he goes by outside of work. I'd heard many tales of Lee while Bobby & he were dating, or whatever, and if I'd known that this was the infamous Lee I wouldn't have asked him out because it would have felt like a kind of betrayal of all that...but because I didn't know, it's just kind of wacky. We had a good time though, and that's all I was looking for. We talked about movies, and heroes, and mashups, and his previous boyfriends, and Jeremy, Tracy, and friends. We talked about a lot of stuff, and I learned a lot about him, which was great. He had to leave to hang out with friends and go to Oz, bu I'm to call him on Friday to see about hanging out again, because he said he had fun.
After he left I spaced out for awhile, then went to Aut Bar to spend some time with people there. I hung out with my old pal Donnie, and his friends Sean & Mike. Mike is 42 years old, and extra hot. I just had conversation, and laughs, but was kind of hungry so I headed home around 1am. I watched 3 & 1/2 Smallville episodes; I'm hooked. I think DJ would like it because it's similar to Buffy (not as well written, but close) - and he likes girls with dark hair, so Lana would please him. I've always loved the character of Lana Lang more than Lois Lane, because the version I'm used to knows about Clark being Superman, and she loves Clark for who he is, while Lois loves Superman and barely gives Clark the time of day - I like her spirit, but mostly think of Lois as kind of shallow and annoying.
Now I'm off to bed, and hoping today will be at least as good as the last half of yesterday. I work 1-5:30, and there are tentative plans for bowling with Carrie & Mark. Friday I work 1-5:30, then I have to call Frank to find out when we can hang out next week. I'm going to dinner with Jeremy, and watching a movie. I'm really looking forward to spending some time with him. Oh, and Mark told me that of all the boys that have been over for one reason or another lately, Jeremy is the prettyest. lol
Mark is going away for the weekend, which is fine...but I'll miss him too. When he gets back I'll give him a big hug. It will probably be good for both of us to be away from each other for a few days. We're so weird.
And if Travis is reading this, I just want to let you know it's been nice talking to you again, and I hope we stay in touch.
Goodnight.
