This is going to be about Dar, so I'm just warning you all.
Dar and I walked home on Friday and as we passed this lady on a bike talking to this man in his yard she turns to us just as we are passing and says, 'You two make a great couple," and didn't even smile or anything. She just looked us dead in the eyes as we passed by and we were both kind of speechless. I found my voice and said thanks.
It was weird because it was just so random. I hadn't ever even seen the lady before in my life, and we hadn't really been talking or anything as we passed we were just holding hands and kind of taking in the autumn air.
We kind of laughed about it later, but not in like a mean way. More like we were laughing because we didn't know how else to go about what she said.
We got to my house and talked to my mom for a bit and then just kind of hung out in my room.
A week or so ago we had this big discussion about being little and eating lunchables and how they were the best thing ever. So when I was at the store I bought two lunchables for us. We had a chicken taco one and a hamburger one. We halved them, and also had some pizza. We sat there eating lunchables in my living space watching the Cash Cab. Then we had some Ben & Jerry's ice cream.
It was so fun, because we weren't worried about anything and we weren't trying to act our age, we were just doing what we wanted.
After we ate we laughed about eating lunchables and sprawled out on the couch and watched Cash Cab some more.
Then I think we just kind of hung out in my room, but I don't quite remember.
Saturday he came over again (as I said in my last entry) When he got here we went to my room and conversed a litte.
Then we tried to watch the movie The Science of Sleep but it's so random it's hard to pay attention. It's one of those movies that really satisfies your eyes but not so much your mind.
Then we had a tickle fight, and he cheated ;] actually, he didn't, but I lost so he cheated.
We were only half way through the movie and decided to just stop it. We fooled around after that and tried something new, but I'm not going to go into detail on that because it feels kind of rude to me.
After that we went on a walk and he skated, I ended up not wanting to skate (my knee has been hurting really badly lately) so I took pictures of him skating. After he was done we went up to the old schools, which is one of my favorite places to go, and sat on the fire escape. I took pictures of him up there, and then he went below the fire escape and I went higher up on it and we played catch with my camera case.
Then I got kind of scared from being so high up and climbed down very slowly.
Right next to the escape is this decent sized tree and it kind of shadows it (half way up the escape you can just pull branches off it it's so close) so we sat at the bottom of it, took some photos of each other and just talked.
It was kind of chilly and there were a lot of bugs out, and as much as we didn't want to go back we eventually started walking home.
After we got home we helped my stepfather clean up (he was home for the weekend) and then he left and we went back in the house. We fooled around some more and then just kind of laid around.
After awhile we made some of my awesome homemade brownies (he didn't believe they were really from scratch) and then decided to make chicken Parmesan for supper. My parents were eating across the street at the neighbor's cookout.
As we waited for the chicken to cook we went in the living space and watch the food channel (since we were hungry)
We ate our meal, which turned out really well and had some brownies.
Then we watched Frailty, which is about murder by God's hand. It was really good.
After it was over we just laid together and pretended like we were sleeping over.
He was laying on his back and I was on my side I was caressing his cheek and slowly he started to nod off, which is this first time he's ever done that.
Laying there in the dark with him felt so safe and wonderful. It felt small too, because I thought of all the things out in the world I could be doing and all I wanted to do was lay there.
Eventually my mom said it was time for him to go home, which it was but I wish it hadn't been.
He can't come over next weekened because he's gone so much. Which I think is kind of silly, he's only ever gone on Friday and Saturday. We never hang out on Sunday, and he doesn't go anywhere throughout the week.
Oh well I guess. We hung out on Thursday too, I didn't mention that before. We went to the record store and the owner talked to me and him. He ordered like..8 records and I bought some incense.
Ric, the owner of the record store, talked to me about Dar. He asked if I was keeping him out of trouble and winked at me, and then we talked about school and stuff.
Dar doesn't think anyone in the record store really knows his name, but Ric said it to me and I told him that and I could tell it made him feel nice even though he'd never say that.
Well, that's all for now, I know that was really long, I just wanted to save those days.
