I miss Mollie, and I'm worried about her; I wish I knew a phone number where I could reach her. I think she's coming back today, but I have no idea what time she'll be back, or if she'll be too worn out for visitors: I guess I'll try calling her tomorrow. I hope she's ok.

I just finished chatting with Shawn's wife Jonathan. And that 'wife' comment was his, and not meant as an insult. I've been wanting to talk to him for ages, and it worked out nicely; he's a lot of fun, just as I suspected, and I'm going to visit him & Shawn a week from today. I hope Shawn isn't weirded out that I'm getting along with Jonathan because I think it's awesome, and I'm super happy about it. But I haven't conversed with Shawn since the unfortunate telephone incident, so I'm not sure how we're doing.

Jonathan said he found my webpage bookmarked and that he's been reading my blog for 2 weeks! Wacky. I'm glad he likes it. He's very friendly, and I find myself wanting to just talk & talk & talk to him. lol I hope we can become good friends. And I hope Shawn & I can remain good friends; I love being friends with the people I've dated - it gives the friendship an extra depth; another layer.

Well, that's enough of that.

Jennifer called me Monday night (10:07pm), crying, saying that Tracy's a bitch and that they had fought, and Jennifer had walked out of a concert, and was now walking home down Woodword, at night, alone. I tried to get her to tell me where exactly she was so I could come get her, or we could call her a cab; she wasn't making a lot of sense though - which worried me. She tried to get into a McDonalds while I was talking to her but they were locked and she started cursing in my ear about it... She said she was going to call a cab, that she'd call me when she got home & then she hung up on me. She never called me back, and I left her several messages.

When I woke up on Tuesday around 5pm (I worked on my webpage all night, waiting for a call) I found an e-mail from her saying that she was alright (Thank Joss!) and apologising for anything that she had done, as she couldn't remember it. Though she did mention that Michael had driven all the way from Ann Arbor to get her, which I had offered to do before she hung up on me. Well, I'm glad she's ok, and I don't know how to feel about the rest of it.

I'm sooooo tired. I wonder what Solomon & Janella are up to today? Perhaps I should look them up later? I don't know. I need to find time to get out to Milan and try to work things out with Jamie; she thinks I told something personal to our other sister Janice, but while I did speak about it with her, she already knew because Jamie's fiance had told her. And I've let it settle for weeks; giving myself time to calm down so I don't kill her. lol And I want to see Grandma too. So maybe I'll do that if I don't sleep all day.

We'll see.

It took me forever to fall asleep this morning. I watched a few episodes of Batman before finally getting to sleep, and I watched a few more when I woke up around 1:30pm. I was able to place a few more episodes in a timeline, and once I'm done with this set I'll really start cracking on it.

I listened to this crazy Madonna / audioslave mashup the other night on repeat and it's stuck in my head. It isn't even a fantastice mix; it's just kind of cool, but I can't shake it. blah.

So, none of the stuff I have on order arrived today, which sucks, but I wasn't going to use any of it today anyways. Mark should be home soon. I forgot that it's Wednesday and that Grandma will be at church tonight, so I guess that's not going to happen. If I had thought of it earlier I would have tried to find a way to get the car for the day.

So I slept last night; weird. I called Mollie's house yesterday, thinking I would leave her a message but she answered the phone; apparently her & Kenny had just gotten home from the airport. She said she read my blog while she was gone and tried to post a comment, but she couldn't. No one can because that feature isn't finished. She sounded exhausted, but happy to be home; we're going to hang out today, and I'm so glad she's back.

Mark helps me with all sorts of online stuff that I'm not good at; he's been helping me setup a page where I can post vids of myself from random occasions. His digital camera had a video option so we had some older ones, including vids from my 30th birthday party, and there's a great one of me playing Dance Dance Revolution at Pinball Pete's with Kevin Clark. When Kevin was nearing the end, we asked him if he would like a video camera so that he could record messages for his friends; anything to allow him to say his goodbyes, when it became obvious that he wasn't going to survive. He turned down the offer, mostly, and Mark & I thought we'd get a camera for ourselves, but then we hardly used it. We watched one of the tapes we recorded and it was amusing, to say the least; I'm going to record some more stuff on it today.

Maybe my old music vids, if they even work anymore, could be posted? hmmmmm.

I called Janella last night, who was working, and she gave me Solomon's phone number. I thought that I had their house phone, but apparently they both have cell phones. We set up time on Saturday for them to come over to our condo to play Euchre. I love games. I never really played that many when I was younger, but I love them now, and if that means I'm a big old geek, I'm fine with that. lol

I'm still watching the new old Batman eps, which are really quite amazing.

Watching those videos we recorded - I am so GAY!!! lol I mean that in a positive way. I don't know how anyone could ever not know I was... I used to hate hearing my voice recorded but then I heard it on a recording, and I didn't know it was me, and I thought I sounded hot. lol So I've loved my voice ever since, so watching those vids, and hearing what everyone else does when I talk was neat. ;-0)

I tried calling Jennifer last night, but she didn't answer her phone, and I didn't leave a message.

I'll probably drive Mark to work today so I can have the car; Mollie is going to call me when she wakes up, which will probably be in the afternoon. I could take a nap before then, and maybe visit my grandmother. Hmmmm. Sounds like fun. Oh, there's this cemetary in Ann Arbor that I discovered a few years back, but couldn't find again, that I rediscovered a few months ago, that I would love to visit... I don't know if Mollie would want to go there though. She sounded like she might want to visit Shawn & Jonathan with me on Wednesday, but she doesn't know her work schedule yet, and she may not be available.

Anyways; I'm off.

I did end up driving Mark to work yesterday, which was fine, but no one seemed to be home at Grandma's house; I later talked to Janice and she let me know about a surprise party for my Aunt Marge & Uncle Mike which is on Saturday from around 1:30pm-3:30pm or thereabouts, so I'll have to let Solomon & Jenella know that I won't be home for Euchre until at least 4pm.

I'm looking forward to the party, which will be at my old church; I'm related to almost everyone that goes to that church, and I'm still on good terms with most of them. But the church building (which I think they still refer to as "new" though it's been around for a very long time) where the party is to be held is where I used to attend a baptist youth group, where I used to meet boys ;-0) And where I had my first REAL guy/guy kiss. So, the place does hold sentimental value for me.

I added still more movies to my GLBT movie database, and my eyes were so tired from that...I took a nap around 3:50pm, before picking Mark up from work, picking up Mollie & going to Red Robin to eat. I enjoyed my food, and my conversation with Mollie & Mark. We went to Borders at Mollie's request, and I got the new issue of BLUE, and a new Star Trek book that's getting rave reviews from the fans online; I'm sure it will be nice. When we got back to the condo we watched an episode of The L Word, and then went to Bryan's for a brief but fun visit, before taking Mollie home and getting a great hug goodbye.

On a side note, got to mention that Bryan & his son Robert give amazing hugs too, and it was really great to see them outside of Hollywood; we don't spend nearly enough time with them lately, and it was great fun while it lasted. Chris is on vaction so she wasn't there, but aside from that, it was perfect.

After Borders, but before home I stopped at work to get my schedule and I was scheduled to work 1pm-5:30pm on Wednesday which is when I'll be in Hillsdale visiting Shawn & Jonathan & possibly Mollie. I was pissed at first, because I thought it was in my availablity that I would have Wednesdays off, but I think I may have changed that when I switched to days... So I'm anxious to get to work today and resolve that; perhaps I can switch with someone and get more hours; perhaps close the store on Tuesday or Thursday ;-0)

Mark & I went to Krogers on the way home from dropping off Mollie, and all in all I had fairly great day.

A note about Herman. Herman was a spider that lived in the upper corner of our doorway last summer, which for one reason or another I grew attached too. lol I don't like spiders; I think they are creepy and they just freak me out, but this fairly large brown spider (which we've since learned could have killed us) didn't scare me, and we even said hello to it when we entered or exited the condo; which prompted Mollie to name it Herman. I'm sure Herman spun it's web there because I leave the porch light on at night which attracts insects, and if I walked by at night to get a drink of water or something, I'd look out the window to see how much "he'd" grown and if he'd caught anything. Then one day the web & the spider were gone, and I was upset. I'm fairly certain that he was cleared away by the men who do the yard work around here...and I was just thinking about this yesterday night because we've noticed a lot of spiders around lately (we always have these spiders around in the spring/early summer, but there have been more lately), and while I haven't enjoyed these new ones (in fact they creep me out more than ever because I know they can actually hurt me), it makes me miss Herman. :-0(
