keep on rolling

So I ended up at Uni again this weekend. It wasn’t planned at all.

I started off going over to Angel’s and helping her out. I was texting Quinn pretty much the whole time too when I didn’t have my hands full of stuff to move. At one point Angel and her beau started goofing around and he bit her earlobe, the kinky kind of bite not the bad kind. Well of course it made me think of Quinn and suddenly I was really really horny. So I started telling him about what was going on. He started saying he would come up. I called him later and he said he couldn’t after all because he promised a friend he’d be at her birthday party that night. I tried to get him to raincheck but he wouldn’t. Then he said "Why don’t you come down here?" I gave him a list of reasons. We argued for a little while but then I had to get off the phone and finish helping Angel.

I did end up going down there and he gave me some money for gas when I got down there so basically it’s almost like I didn’t go, gas-wise. Well we went to the birthday party and it was lame. There were 4 different parties going on in the same apartment complex that night and the usual crew of about 40-50 people who come to a party ended up split between the 4 so each was pretty small and pretty boring. Turns out he could have come up to see me and not missed much of anything. But it’s okay. We spent Sunday morning curled up in bed together before we had to get up and go to campus for his choir practice. I sat in one of the dorms with Irish and some friends. Quinn got out of practice, we hung out a little longer then we went down to dinner at the dining hall. He and I went back to the apartment and just hung out. He started not feeling so well so he napped a little. He felt better after he slept and got something to eat.

I managed to lose my mp3 player while I was there. I had it Saturday when I got down there. He says we didn’t listen to it on the way back from the party that night but I don’t remember if we did or not. Usually I keep it in my purse instead of leaving it in the car, just because I don’t like the idea of leaving it and someone seeing it and breaking into the car. But when I went to leave today I couldn’t find it anywhere in my purse. So I have Quinn and Irish looking for it. I was only 3 places this weekend where I put my purse down. The party, the dorm, and the apartment. Hopefully they will find it and hold onto it for me. If not, guess I’ll have to look into getting a new one when I get a job. That just freaking sucks. It was a $70 present from my mom with about $100 worth of music on it at least. *sigh*

But other than that the weekend was really good. Quinn and I got along great as usual. We had one little tiff last night but we resolved it pretty quickly. And there were several very wonderful moments that give me hope that this may all just work out. We were taking a shower (we have showered together basically since we started. Nothing really sappy or romantic just quick jump in, rinse off, jump out kind of showers) and we had been discussing his break-up with the B!tch. He likes to say that he is the reason they broke up but I pointed out that she’d started pushing him away almost a year before he cheated on her. I say their break-up was both their faults. She pushed him away (starting it), he cheated (finishing it). After making this statement he pauses in washing, puts his arms around my shoulder, leans his forehead against mine (btw, 8 inch height difference lol) and says "I’m glad I didn’t finish it with you or else we wouldn’t be here now, we wouldn’t have this." Wait, hold the ‘aww’, there’s more! He was washing his hair and he looked at me and said, "Do you want to put the conditioner in for me?" I have never helped a guy wash his hair before. I asked several guys, this is something most couples don’t do until about a year into their relationship (it was a range of 6-12 months, majority being at a year). So I was putting the conditioner in his hair and he looked up at me through his eyelashes (have I mentioned he has eyelashes a girl would be jealous of? I love them, and when he looks at me through them I about die!) and said "You’re special you know that?" and I looked at him and said why and he replied "Nobody else gets to do this for me." Now you may ‘awww’ lol. Plus he started talking in the long term again this weekend. We were watching that show Pawn Stars (never watched it before, no idea what channel it was) and this guy brought in an old Coke machine from back in they day when they had the glass bottles. It was beat to heck. But the guy restored it and it was soooo beautiful but the freaking machine when it was done was $3000!!!! I LOVE classic coke antiques. I have 2 of the classic Coke glasses that are red-brown in color. I know where to get whole sets of the clear glasses. I saw this machine and was whimpering, I wanted it sooo badly. Well, Quinn looks at me and says it’ll be ok. And I say no it won’t, I’ll never have the money for a $3000 antique Coke machine. I’ll be too busy paying bills. I mean Pharmacy admins make good money ($80k a year in most places) but I’ll be paying rent and car insurance, probably car payments, etc. I wouldn’t have a spare $3000 to spend on a Coke machine. And they’d had this machine outfitted to dispense other shapes of bottles too, like beer or the root beer and creme soda bottles too. I tell Quinn all this and he goes "Well, one day I’ll get one for you." He whispers it right in my ear in that deep husky bedroom voice of his then proceeds to nibble my ear. It was incredible. The whole weekend was incredible. Even though I lost my mp3 player, and I’m kind of irked by that, I still am in an incredibly good mood.

Hopefully things will start improving soon, like maybe getting a job and that way I can have money to do what I want and pay some of my bills and start on the whole Grad school application thing. I’m also excited because there are so many things coming up soon. Oktoberfest, which is now looking slightly like a better chance of happening since mom let this weekend happen at the last minute, then Uni has fall break which is a 4 day weekend the weekend right after Oktoberfest which means Quinn can finally come and visit me. Then after that is Halloween (still not sure what my plans are for that), then fall ball for the sorority including founders day and Quinn is my date . Then after that is Thanksgiving. I don’t know yet whether I’ll get to see him or not. He is supposed to go to his grandparents place in one of the Carolinas (I think South but don’t quote me) and that means he’ll be down there pretty much the whole time I think. So while yeah, it’s a 5 day break, he’ll be going straight from school down to there and whether or not he leaves on Friday, he’ll probably still go straight back to school, or else to his dad’s which is 45 minutes away. Either way I don’t know yet whether I will get to see him. Then 2 weeks after that is exams and end of the semester then he’ll be home. He has an internship over the break but it is only on the weekends so hopefully I will get to see a lot more of him over the winter. But that’s still months from now unfortunately. One thing at a time.

First thing is first and that’s just getting through the week. Hopefully I will hear from Best Buy this week about my final interview. Keep your fingers crossed.
