Mischief and Control

JD
I talked to JD last weekend and he was his usual self. He gave me the riot act for not calling and he is now back in LA. He has filmed 2 pilot episodes and is waiting to see what happens with those. He is thinking he may want of shift focus to film editing and let acting go. He then emailed me on Sunday and sent me a Judy Garland song that has never been released that felt very personal to him. This is one thing I always loved about JD. He never was a Judy fan I was but all these years remembers that and now has even joined this online web group so he can find this music. I know he is feeling lonely and even said to me in the email. "My heart needs the people who're the dearest to me." I called Myam and talked it out with her. I have let go of so many things when it comes to JD but it can still be hard from time to time.

Online Dating
On that note…I have received to emails from guys on Match and Chemistry about dating and they seem pretty good candidates. I still keep thinking am I ready and then I think maybe not. Jesus if I am not ready now will I ever be? I don't know it is the one thing in my life I am always unsure about.

Work
Work has been very funny this week. A few of us are toying around with the Weight Watchers idea. We can all feel spring approaching and are ready to get rid of our winter weight.

In own of the classes I do breaks for three girls decided to play princess. One was Cinderella, one was Tinkerbell and the final one was Sparkly Princess. They all dressed up in dresses and then one little boy came over and looked upset and I said you can be Prince Peter if you like and he then went to go get a dress and asked me to put in on and I asked what princess he was and he said Sleeping Beauty. I thought alright then and I pretended to be the driver of the coach taking them all to the ball. It was priceless.

With the blizzard there is still some snow left on the ground and today I decided to have a snowball fight with my class. At first they were pounding me and I was drenched. When we went in for snack but after snack I grabbed a bucket and a piece of cardboard and overtook their fort on the big toy and they were pissed. I would look at one and then throw the snowball to the side and hit another. They never saw it coming. It was funny.

Saturday
Went with M and S to get pedicures and while there John who does their nails mentioned that he always hears us talk about going to dinner and usually goes of and eats alone. We all gasped and insisted he come with. After we were done we went to Dewey's Pizza in Dayton and it was REALLY good and then to Coldstone for some ice cream. John is so funny. He is your typical gay guy. Very out and it was funny because a little girl sitting across from us kept imitating him. She was very fascinated by him.

We went to S and T's for a while then M drove us home and I stayed at her place talking until 1am.

Sunday
Ikea has opened and we managed to make a day of it. We had Chipolte for lunch to get our energy up and off to the craziness that is Ikea. It was crowded but not as crowded as it was probably yesterday or the day it opened. S and M were amazed by the stuff and the funniest thing happened. M saw a guy she has slept with and she went into flight mode. She grabbed S and told her in her panic who it was and that she couldn't let him see her looking like crap. So S and I went to check him out and he was pretty good looking. We spent the rest of our time ducking and weaving trying not to run into him.

Ikea is everything I remembered it to be and had to stop myself from buying 400 lamps. I am glad it is close because I do want to get shelving for my office and cover my walls floor to ceiling with book shelves. Plus I can get stuff for my crafts room and spare upstairs bedroom for dirt cheap now. SWEET!

Dad
Dad turned 69 on Feb. 24 and due to snow and timing I hadn't given him his card so I went up to the house on Saturday to give tit to him. He and I are having dinner on Friday. We kept calling each other and saying we should hook up for dinner for about a month now. So it is finally set. I think he is really going to retire this year. I am glad. With all the snow and him being the one to go clear it off at work (he is the supervisor for the janitorial staff at the middle school) I worry about him on snow days. Like I mentioned last week but he is doing really well.
