What a hellish week!?! lol

There were some good things that happened. Work was fun this week. I got to see Michael. I got to see Jordan. I got to see my coworkers. I finally got to watch BSG with Mark, which rocked, and we'll watch the penultimate episode this year, later today.

Tuesday night I went to Aut Bar to see Jordan. My friend Robert was there, visiting from Chicago, so that was a treat. My ex-bf Franklin was there as well, which was also nice. When I got home, Mark told me that there was some more drama, and now we were without internet service, which pretty much killed my plans for Wednesday. Jordan stayed the night. I had a horrible headache (been having a lot of those this week), but my meds killed it, and we were able to get some sleep. Michael came over later on Wednesday, and copied a bunch of stuff and played. It was all good. Mark was late getting home from work that night...and when Michael went to leave his car had died!?! Mark drove Michael home, as my stomach was starting to get upset.

My stomach was upset all Wednesday night, and into the morning hours of Thursday, but I felt better later on...and the internet returned as well. Mark & I went to the comic shop, whole foods, and Barnes & Noble (where I got the latest American issue of Doctor Who Magazine). Mark & I picked up Michael, who was visiting with his friend Chris, and I invited Chris over as well. We played video games, and chatted, while Michael copied BSG & Firefly. I was exhausted, and went to bed just before they left. I read the new issue of Buffy, which was the final issue of the 'Wolves at the Gate' storyline, and it rocked...probably my favorite arc of the new series.

After crawling into bed, exhausted, Thursday night...the Central Air DIED. And it was so hot I couldn't sleep. It was hell. Next day, Mark & I had some miscommunications and he left for work, shortly befor I had to leave for work, leaving me without a ride, having had little to zero sleep, in our increasingly inferno like condo. I needed new razors, and my face showed it. I was late for work. My stomach was hurling stuff. But it was all good. You know how it is when so much is going wrong that you just have to deal and move on? That was this week in a nutshell.

So after work I went to the bank, and to get some food before picking up Mark. After waiting for an hour for Mark to get out of work late, we went to Meijer where I got razors, Man Perfume, underwear, socks and chips. We were going to buy a fan or something, but Michael said he had a window air conditioning unit and 2 fans we could use, so we went there, after stopping at home to get some stuff that Michael will need to continue working for Mark. We ended up staying there far longer than I expected, still having not slept. Blah. It was nice to see Michael though. Chris showed up just before we left, but before that, I called my ex-bf Paul, who lives near by, only he was in Saginaw, and so he couldn't save me from my boredon; he says we can hang out this weeks sometime...

When we got home we had to get all our stuff in the house. We had to move everyhing away from my bedroom window (which is NOT easy or conveniant) only to find that it wouldn't fit in my window. We tried setting it up in the bathroom, but that didn't work out for other reasons. Jordan wanted me to meet him at Necto so I could meet his friends, and see him before he left for Florida today...and I needed to get ready fast...so we just set up the fans, and tabled the AC until I could return home.

I shaved with my new razors; wore new underwear and socks, and freshly laundered clothing. I was feeling like the day was finally turning around, even though I was still really tired. I met Jordan at Necto, and met his friends Rachel & Mitchell, who were both cute and fun... I said hello to Becky, DJ Jinx, and chatted with Hal, an old aquaintence of mine, while I waited for my drinks. I bought a screwdriver for Jordan, and ordered 3 Cream Bombs for myself, as they're cheaper to buy them in 3's. Then I gave one of the Cream Bombs to Mitchell, who's 21 or 22, and asked his friend Rachel to hold one of my drinks so I could put my wallet away...only as soon as I did this a bouncer threw me out for buying the girl, who's underage, a drink. The thing is, I can see how he'd think that's what was going on, because there was a drink for everyone, but I was going to drink both of those (I usually drink all 3), but then when I explained he refused to believe me and I was ejected from the club, not even having been able to drink my drinks. I want a fucking refund.

By now I had a killer migrain. It had started at Michael's place, and gotten worse all night, despite me having had taken some pain killer. We went to Aut Bar, where we stayed for the remainder of the night. We drank, and met some people. It was mostly fun. ;-0)

Jordan came home with me, and left his car at Aut Bar. When I got home, Mark & I set up the AC in Mark's window, and then put the fans in my room. Jordan and I survived the heat somehow, though it was nearly impossible to sleep for very long. Still, it was great seeing him, and I drove him back to his car this morning. By the time I had gotten home there was a text from him; he'd gotten a parking ticket, as the Farmer's Market was in full swing when I dropped him off! Bad - BAD week.

And I didn't even mention all the drama and hassle Marke went through trying to get someone to come fix our air conditioning. The place that we've been paying to cover us, doesn't. Waste of cash. Then there was this number we had from before, but they don't do AC anymore. Mark called this other place, but the soonest they could come is this Thursday. Finally he found a place that is supposedly coming out tomorrow. Nice.

Anyways...that's what's been going on. I'm gonna attempt to get some sleep... Later, Mark & I are gonna clear a patch to our Central Air Unit so that the repair men can fix it tomorrow. Also gonna watch BSG, and hopefully Doctor Who as well... And probably work on this Cardassian / Bajoran timeline thingy I've been working on for Mollie. Wish me luck. ;-0)
