Breaking Up is Hard to Do...

...continued...

So, its nearing the end of June, I'm finnishing up my courses, papers etc. I run into HIM in the hallway (to find out more about HIM...travel back to my November entries). Now HE and I are getting along fine, as often as we see each other. HE has a new girlfriend, who seems quite nice and of course at this time I have Ct. Cool. So HE is moving in with his new girlfriend and moving out of Rez. Good. HE needs that growing up. Anyway, he suggests that before he goes, and I move back to PR that we have one last night of Tequilla and Crib. Okay, that sounds like fun. Ct already said it would be cool for me to hang out with HIM 'cause HE was the only person left on campus that I knew. So, we set the date for Friday, June 17. HE comes over, and we start playing crib, and drinking and "shooting the shit." HE didn't bring his girlfriend so we were free to discuss THAT NIGHT and since I am totally over it by now, and so is HE, we laugh about it and move on. We talk about our new boyfriend/girlfriend and the good and the bad, and then the phone rings. HE has only been here for about 15 - 20 minutes. I'm like "Who is calling me? I am not expecting any calls!" HE is like "It's probably your boyfriend" and I'm like (jokingly and yet not) "No, 'cause he never calls." Well. It was him. And he sounded upset. He starts getting upset that HE is there. I'm like "uh uh, you said that was cool." anyway...he's all "I can't be in a serious relationship at this time in my life." and I'm like "well, I can't be in a relationship that isn't serious." He's still all pissed that HE is there so, HE leaves the room. We conclude the conversation, I go out into the hallway to get HIM and announce "Well, I'm single again!" And then we drank a lot. HE started puking. So HE calls up HIS girlfriend and goes home. I then proceed to make a very drunk phone call to my mother.

That evening I was all "I'm glad we broke up...it just makes sense you know...its kind of a relief." I even said I felt guilty for not being more upset. Then, Saturday I stayed in bed all day. Tequilla will do that. Sunday was hard. I cried a lot...a lot a lot...and then I was stupid and called Ct. We agreed we'd still be friends because it seemed stupid to give up on our friendship after all this time just because we were geographically separated and no longer romantically involved. He agreed. Thank God. I would not be able to handle it if we weren't friends. It seems to be working too.

So on other notes, to catch you up with my life:

I worked hard and got a job teaching grade two in the fall...temporary position, but I'll get my foot in the door if I can figure out how to teach grade two without squishing them

I went to my cousins wedding, which Ct was supposed to come to, before we broke up. I was misserable without him and simply reminded of the fact that I won't be planning a wedding any time soon.

I miss my roommates terribly...we had such great conversations. I saw the movie "Kinsey" and though that if we had watched it together we wouldn't have slept for weeks 'cause we'd be discussing and analysing it. I hear from M every once in a while, sounds like she's doing great. Her and J are making the long distance thing work. That is so cool.

I'm working at the Museum again this summer. Its giving me enough of a nest egg to get myself established for my new teaching job.

I'm actually going to make my BC trip. I have convinced my parents and they're giving me some money to help fund it as a graduation gift. I am so excited about this trip I just don't know what to say.

Today is Harry Potter Day...I've got my new book but can't read it until after work...OMG

I bought a cell phone. That's right, I've been avoiding the silly things for years but its time, I'm gonna use it instead of a land line at least until I have a more permanent teaching position.

I guess thats all...certainly enough. I bet you didn't read all of it. Thats okay. Just so you know, I'm smiling, happy and excited...but I sure miss my friends.
