Today was different...

Jeff arrived yesterday evening for a few days here in town. It was so good to kiss him, and be in his arms once more. To feel his strong body against mine, to hear his voice telling me in person that he missed me and loves me so much. It was so good to tell him the same things and to kiss him back. Oh, how I love that man. However, he is staying with K & M, and not here. I don't quite understand the reasons, but I accept them (admittedly grudgingly).

Yesterday, he came here first and we kissed...(and kissed, and kissed, and kissed.....). Then we went over to K & M's, where we left for disc golf soon after. I can't really throw the discs because of my back right now, and Marsha tried on the first hole, but her throw is off due to the future arrival. So we talked and followed the guys through the course. My back was aching by the time we reached the end. It's been getting worse again in the last couple of days. I just took some of my lovely medicine, so I hope it takes care of it.

Then, we were all pretty hungry, so we headed to Iowa City to a barbecue place. I forget the name, but it's really pretty new, in an old Amoco station building on the edge of Downtown. The barbecue chicken was pretty good. The fries were yummy!

Then we headed back to K&M's...and for the life of me I can't remember what we did after that... I know Jeff and I kissed a lot more, and he 'showed me the basement again'... and we sat around talking for awhile. My days all blend together, due to the medicine and just my ditzyness. I often forget what I was doing, or forget that I've done something and go back to redo it. That leaves me puzzled, scratching my head, when I go back to find I've done something but I have no recollection of doing it just five or ten minutes before.

Anyway, we called it a night, and Jeff brought me back home. (and kissed!)

I got up early this morning (blech, anything before nine is too early for me! Lazy, I know!) I took a quick shower, and went to pick up my work check.. Then I had to wait for Kirk and Jeff to get back from disc golfing and grabbing lunch...(that's when I wrote the last blog entry). Jeff and I grabbed some quick alone time, and then went back upstairs. Finding out that the basement is soundproof was a wonderful thing! :)

They played two games of regular chess and a game of round chess, which was really tough looking! Marsha came home from the doctor, and we got to sit around for a bit longer, finally deciding that a nap was definitely in order for all of us. Although, Jeff and I didn't quite get that far... but alone time is wonderful!

We had some of the yummy roast that Marsha made, and then some of the YUMMY brownies that Kirk made. I am a sucker for brownies. My favorite brownies of all time have marshmallows in them...YUM! My favorite sweet of all time, however, are these marshmallow and caramel(?) treats that one of my mom's friends make around the holiday season. I don't know what they are called though.

I parted ways with them shortly after that. Kirk and Jeff went to a ritual, and Marsha went to another thing with Kirk's mom. I went to the mall to Target and picked up the things I would need to remove my fake nails. I ran into Spaz while I was there, that was cool. He was one of the friends that I hung out with at the mall during my senior year. He still lives up to his high school nickname that's for sure! But it was great seeing him. I also just barely missed having to talk to Jenny, but that's fine with me.

Came home and took my puppy for a short walk around the block, my back was killing me to go any further. Had yet another rice dinner, and began the attack on my nails. (See, one of them broke off last night, so I figured the rest of them had to go, it looked tacky to have a broken one and the rest still long...) OH MY GOD, did that freakin' hurt to remove them.. but that's okay really, I survived. However, my nails are really damaged from the fake nails being on them, it's going to take awhile to restore them. I have this really cool Revlon Nail kit, battery operated that buffs/polishes/smooths them. They look pretty good now, just really short. If it wasn't for my nail toy, they would look absolutely horrible. I'm so glad I bought that thing a few Christmas' ago!

But enough of my nails.. and my mundane day, I am sure I have either bored you to tears, dear reader, or put you to sleep. I have to record everything though, or else I will forget what I've done or in what order.. It's the medicine I am taking I think. It magnifies my forgetfulness/absentmindedness/ditzyness to the 100th power at least.

I think Jeff fell asleep before he could call me tonight, or else he forgot. We always do good night calls.. except when one of us falls asleep unexpectedly. I know I sleep better if I hear his voice right before I drift off to la-la land. However, I am getting very very sleepy now, so perhaps I can sleep right away after posting this.

Which would be right....now...
