The Weekend

Wanted to just pop in and say I've been feeling pretty good, now gonna head on the road to a healthier me. Maybe that involbes staining someones large newly fenced in yard, hahah That wont cut the gut as much as give me upper body straight. Ill see how Dustin plans to tackle that. I would love to help. All I can ask for in return is bring me some drinks while im working and friendship, kinda like what on their wall in the kitchen, Live, Laugh and something else.... Hmm, Im missing the third component in life.

Julie understand my dream

Craziest thing today, okay, Julie let me wash her car windows, they were spotty when I went out to lunch, I asked before doing it as she requested, it was a hot one today so I opted to go to Starbucks and picked some up for a few of my coworkers. Turned out my hair cut was tonight, Julie said she could go. it was the true sign that our friendship is okay, we spent a good 2 hours hanging out. I felt good about the whole thing, I look forward to seeing Dustin next week.

While getting my hair cut I sorta brought up the whole "How is the car thing going to play out without having a camera, are you going to call me and have me film it when I get there?" Instantly I was met by the same thing I got in the past, kinda hatred tone, I dropped it quickly, but at the restaurant I was feeling kinda sick from it coming up and not still getting any cooperation. I took a minute and asked her to just listen to me. By the end of the night she asked to carry the camera with her.

I'll be very honest I have gotten myself very sick over this whole car thing the last few months, the minute I had her saying she will try her best to film it if it happens, I cannot even get myself feeling sick. Just the thought in the past would make my pulse race, now I feel so relieved over something stupid, I know it's stupid, but my mind would not drop it. This should make a huge improvement over our friendship too! I think one thing we learned about each other talking it out is just to listen to each other a little more.

Saturday Night Party at Susan's

Hey Guys, a little late post, but I wanted to say I did a bicycle event for Lexington through the amateur radio club, I learned that 99% of the bicyclist have bike shoes, so there was not many gymshoes that I enjoy seeing out on the path, but it was a wonderful day and the event went smoothly.

I went to a birthday party afterwards in Richmond with my friends from work, Scott, Rob, Susan, Jennifer, Julie and Dustin were there :-) I had a very enjoyable time with everyone, can't wait to have a birthday party myself.

I've got plans to do lunch with Dustin here in a week, I hope our schedules work out. Julie was out of work the past two days, I hope she is feeling well, I have a feeling its back related, and that just is not cool that she feels that way. But I hope she is back to work tomorrow. Im itching to test drive this 1986 Oldsmobile. Im hoping that my schedule will be that such that I can have Julie go through the motion of starting it if I can get it semi flooded, and record her Nikes Shox or something attempting to starting it, the car is goimg for $3000, too much to buy, so im relying on her acceptance to do this and a time frame soon before the car is sold. Im thinking Saturday while she is on lunch, the whole thing should take less then 5 minutes. But I worry she is gonna think its all stupid and hurt my feelings, its a risk I have to take she did offer to do it just not in her vehicle, so I hope she will keep a promise.

Julie made a change

Julie was wearing a pair of Adidas that I took pictures along the train tracks in Georgetown. I was happy to see her mixing up the shoes a bit at work. I am hoping she will not wash the Shox at all, and that she will still enjoy the Custom ones I have had made. Julie has been using this green stretchy thing to do exercises with her ankle that she severly sprung. I think the exercises would be cool to vido tape as the movements of the sneakers would be fun to watch over and over

I went to Panera after work and this girl that works there was wearing her Nike Shox Go, She said she wears a 6 to 6 1/2, and she was receptive to giving them up for a new pair of nike shoes. Ill see what happens, she had purple socks on and I saw a neat purple pair of Nike Dual D's that might have her name on them.

I spoke briefly with April, she needs an oil change soon. Hinted to wear some flavor of her sneaks. And Angela will get with me sometime soon to see the new shoes I picked up in Ohio. Thats all for today. Was a good day in general.

I had a better day at work. My friend Julie was in better spirits, she was wearing the Nike Shox toay, but that did not help as she was on her last break and rolled her ankle in a hole outside our showroom at work, it was not cool. I am one of the emergency responders at work, I tried my best to take care of my best friend in a time of need :-) I swiftly got her ice, but she still felt like getting merchandise out, I had to get her in the back room and got her to sit down and elevate it and get ice on it. I took the accident report, got to see the Nike's briefly up close, but I wanted to tend to her situation. I was so happy to see Dustin, her husband come to make sure she was okay. She was on the phone at the time she fell, so that was awesome of him to make sure she is okay. One thing with Julie, is she is a train wreck inside her body with her back, and falling like that can only agrevate the back, so that was my biggest concern when doing the accident report. Anyhow I hope she feels better wheather she can make it to work tomorrow or not. I was able to confirm my plans with doing lunch with Dustin on May 10th. So im excited about that. And I just hope that I will get to see Julie in the evening, cause its been like a month since we have gone out outside of work to eat or do anything, and half the things I enjoy doing with her, since I still one that bet was to get more shots of the Nikes while she is wearing them, can't be done at work, plus Im still trying to get her some music she wanted 3 months ago. Oh well. I don't know the half of her life, and with her being one of my few friends I have in Kentucky I have to cope with not seeing her or her husband, Im trying to alternate my Saturdays so Im available to hang out with Dustin while she is working, etc and hope that mix will make everything better.

I had an okay day at work, my friend Julie was in a mixed mood, Im always worried that she is made at me but Im realizing her back puts her in moods that I take the wrong way. But after work I hung around and did get to hang out with another good friend of mine, April, she was wearing her Nike's which I like a lot. Had a bad dining experience at Texas Roadhouse this evening with ordering a smaller kids meal, it comes with the drink but they charge you for it if your over 12, but it doesnt say it and they removed it in the past when I brought it up, well tonight the manager says they never do that.

Thought my dream was coming true!

This was a big blow to me. I don't know what happened, work went well in all aspects that I could see, I had won a bet with Julie, she said that if she won the best I would buy her lunch for a week, and I told her that if I won, that I wanted to be able to take candid shots of her wearing the Nike's and also I take them kinda anytime I want. well today I was gonna take her up on lending them to me, but I prefer to do it outside work just cause its not work related. Well I got her to just hang an extra 2 mnutes while I got my drawer counted out, went outside, I don't know what happened, but she said she was in a hurry, but then she saw a co-worker of ours and offered to show her some purses, this kinda bothered me that she doesnt have time to take her shoes off and put on a pair I brought for her that was one of the pair she gave to me prior, but she had time to show purses to someone else. I don't know how I was suppose to take this inside, it kinda was a punch that I was not a friend. So the whole barrowing the shows was fast not becoming reality, but on top of that it was the best that I won that she should have said yeah your right here they are. Then she went to start her car while I was literally standing next to her car and it didn't start, she tried again no start, I thought this was the start of a problem I am dying to observe in person and video take, she knows this too, I told her to hold on and I was grabbing my camera,and she tried again and it started, I don't know what happened, but it again hurt me that she would not wait to allow me to record it. Now technically I guess if the problem woudl have occured the way it has in the past it would have not started for several minutes, and I would have probably been able to get my dream video, but for the fact that she still was persistant to not "deal with my request. It hurts that when I tell people that hey if this happens to you I want to get it on video, it means the world to me, it really does. And when I find out that something occured and I was not able to be there for it, it hurts!! BIG TIME!
