You see, December 31st is Sean's birthday. I called him to wish him a happy birthday, and it turned out that he was coming down to his parent's house for the night and having a bunch of friends over. That was a lot of fun. Sean, Ian (both ex-boyfriends, for those not keeping up with my life in great detail), Jamie, Chuck, Misty and assorted other people were there. I also got to meet Sean's girlfriend, whose name I cannot spell in the slightest.
We had a lot of fun. We all got in the hot tub (I finally had a reason to wear the new swimsuit I bought last summer! Yay!) and Kim set off fireworks at midnight. Then I called my sweetie
Random thoughts:
- Jamie and I actually got along. I am amazed.
- There was this really random moment when I realized "hey, I've slept with half of the guys in this room at some point. How is this my life?"
- I got along with Ian better than I had expected to. I am going to mail him the B5 tapes before I go back to school, dammit. I've been meaning to do that for quite a while. I should probably also include an additional present of some kind.
- Speaking of presents, I got Sean a Dana Lyons "WTO Disco" poster that I'd gotten autographed for him at a concert back in November. He seemed to really like it, which makes me happy.
- I finally met Sean's girlfriend, who he's been dating since approximately one week since we broke up over a year and a half ago. She seems nice. She fell asleep pretty early, so I didn't really interact with her much.
- Damn it all, I still find Sean attractive. >.<
- It's really eerie to think that Misty is a therapist dealing with kids. I bounced in and out of therapy so much as a kid, it's just odd to think of someone I know doing that for a living. She seems so different from the stuffy men that I typically saw. I have no idea if this is a good thing or not. I didn't like most of my therapists.
- Jupiter (one of their dogs) has calmed down a lot since last year. This is a very good thing.
- I miss my sweetie.
- Ian grew his hair out. It kind of suits him, although it also reminds me of a lot of gamers I know.
- Sean made some comments/very mild behaviors that could be read as him still having some sort of feelings for me. Granted, I could quite possibly read that into pretty much anything. Mostly, a response to a comment I made about facial hair (I'm in favor of it, he doesn't have any, we weren't talking about him) and the fact that in his 3/4 asleep state as I was putting on my shoes he sort of absently grabbed my calf and then blew me a half-hearted kiss as I left. Nothing major.
- It's amazing how many people can fit in a hot tub without it feeling crowded.
- It was also nice to get to see Sean's parents again, although I didn't get to talk to them at too much length. Told them about the whole double major thing and the trying to pick a grad school thing.
- Ian and I both dressed in all black. That just amuses me for some reason. I think Sean may have been all in black as well. I wore my black slippery knit pants and my "evil" studded shirt. I originally had a grey sweater over it, but after hot tubbing I was hot enough that I didn't feel like wearing it anymore. It always amuses me to wear that shirt with a perfectly respectable sweater. I did so for the family Christmas dinner this year. Anyway.
I should sleep now. I may write another entry after I get some sleep, but knowing me I'll not write in this thing again until March or something.
