better...

i'm feeling a bit better today.

i'm not going to Cali...and while i'm not entirely happy about it, i think that it's the right decision. i will miss seeing some dear people, and a place that i'm quite fond of, i might even say love, but all things considered, it will be nice to have some time to myself. a lot of issues got raised in the ensuing discussion, but we'll figure those out when we can, i suppose.

the rest of these weekend was actually really nice. [personal profile] magnetgirl and her boy arrived a little later than expected, but after they got here, we got high and went to collegetown bagels and stuffed ourselves, and sat out on their outdoor patio with the little pepper lights set up and music playing over the speakers. we got home, and sat up talking and hanging out for a good long while, and then decided to go to sleep so as to get the best out of saturday. saturday, after an extremely large diner breakfast, we set out for the gorge, climbed down it, sunned ourselves and watched people swimming (ran into one of my co-workers down there which was a bit odd) and then walked around campus a bit, so that ed could get the full tour. then we sat outside with an enormous pitcher of sangria and ate raspberry cookies and giggled. then of course, d. had to go to work...but [profile] guinness_duck stopped by (it was really really good to see him, he's one of my favorite people and we see far too little of each other despite us both living in this tiny ass town) and we headed down to the chariot for dinner and corn nuggets. yum. then we took a little nap, and when d. came home we finished off a bottle of wine, smoked some more and just gibber-jabbered till about 5 in the morning.

they left around 2:30 the next day (sadness) and then d. and i wandered down to the commons and bought used books (an extravagance, but i felt i could splurge since i'm saving money on that unbought plane ticket) and then we went out to dinner. there were lots of snuggles too. and really, how bad can things be if the snuggles are plentiful?
