A collaboration of things

First off…*has been a terrible noter/reader* Yeah…Sorry bout that.

Wednesday:
Raya and Derrick got married. We were all insane prior to it…Us being us really. *laughs* It was good fun though. *nods* It was a quick, simple ceremony, and they were much of the happies. Raya has pictures up already…And I’m fairly certain more are on the way.

Sonja went to visit Jordan…She stayed there for hours…At least four I think. He was his usual self when I dropped her off…I was really good to see that. It’s hard to believe that only 16 days before he was laying in the hospital with severe head trauma. He still has to wear a cervical collar, for probably six weeks…But aside from it driving him utterly crazy from what his mom said, he’s doing great. *smiles*

I went to Gaylord to get a couple things…The water pump on the Jeep decided to blow up on the way home. Blah. *kicks it*

Thursday:

Todd called, before noon even. *smiles* He had gone out the night before and was not quite feeling up to driving…But (his idea even), he said I could come pick him up if I wanted to. Warned him I had the Critters with me, he said that was fine too.

Sooo…Went and picked him up. He was hungry, so he treated the lot of us to Arby’s, then we came back here.

Sonja & Harley went down the road to the neighbors. Todd and I curled up on the futon together. Just laid there for a while. It was nice. *smiles* [Did have a brief interruption when I had to go get Harley from down the road because he had to go to T-ball practice.]

After Mum and Sonja got home Todd and I went to go find Sand Lake. Unfortunately, as this is seemingly a bad year for mosquitoes everywhere…They were swarming on the lake’s surface by the shore. But it was a nice drive out in the middle of nowhere anyway.

On the way back to the house we stopped and picked up burgers and hotdogs. I told him we didn’t have any charcoal, but he insisted he could cook them with a stick built fire. *laughs* Before he was done he conceded that we should of got charcoal…But…He did get them cooked, and they were good…And if nothing else, it was quite entertaining watching him trying to get the fire going and keep it going.

We curled back up on the futon together for quite a while…Kept dozing off. Sometime around 4 he got up and headed into Harley’s room to sleep (the futon is, admittedly, uncomfortable, and it doesn’t do much for ones back).

Friday:

Raya and Derrick returned from Traverse. Sounds like they had a good time.

Took Todd home…When we were saying good-bye he said something about seeing me later. I asked when that might be. He wasn’t sure. I asked about Sunday…He said probably not. Then I said something about I’d have to be sad and pouty on my birthday then…Which reminded him it was my birthday…He sounded like he might try to come out after all. *bites lip* I don’t want to get my hopes up…But I really would like it if he could/would come over. He’s got to work, but it’s morning…So conceivably, he could make it.

We decided against going to Boarder Wars…From the sounds of it, it’s storming pretty badly down there anyway. We wouldn’t be able to put up a tent in the rain.

Went to get my Jeep…Brought it home…All seemed fine and well.

Raya suggested splitting the cost of ordering from the pizza place, as we were in need of food, and no one really felt like cooking. Took my Jeep…*glares at Jeep*
On the way back from town I was really wondering if it was going to make it back. *frowns* The transmission seemed to be slipping. *shakes head* *sighs*

And the laptop. *glares at it* It is dead as well. It went out, and I fought with it a bit to get it to come back on…And it did, a couple times…Then there was the loverly bit of fire it decided to sprout. One little flame really, but one flame more than a laptop is suppose to have sprouting out of it.

—————————————————————————————————-

So the short of it…

Raya & Derrick…Married & Home. *tosses confetti all over the place* I is much of the happies for them. *tosses more confetti all over them*

Jordan home and doing well.

Jeep near death…

Laptop dead.

Critters at their father’s this week-end. [Which reminds me, mine will be in Michigan next week, for not quite a week.]

Boarder Wars cancelled.

& Me still having not a bloody clue as to what is going on with me and Todd.

As much as I want to, I’m too afraid to broach the subject, verbally. I came close in my last letter…Then worried myself to death over it.

But…As it’s now 1 in the morning, and I was awake waaaaaaay to early this morning…I’m going to clear off the futon, chase Mr. Black out of my place…Curl up into a ball…Probably drip a bit…And attempt to get some sleep.
