Okay because i don't like writing things repeditively i am pretty much going to copy what i wrote in my offline diary last night. So much has happend and yah... here goes:

Saturday morning i was cleaning the house while elsbe was over here using my powerpoint program. Mom said the house had to be near spottless since jake was coming over. God he wasn't even a boyfriend at the time, but i'll get to that in a minute.

So i wasn't dressed and was just getting around to taking my hair out of curlers when jake rang the door bell arriving 30min early! So basically i had my makeup done but that was it so he got to laugh when i was doing the final spray down of my hair with the hairspray and cough. He stayed in the living room talking with my mom untill i was ready. Bobbie came and we took pictures after jake and i had exchanged flowers. The corsauge he gave me was HUGE! I called it a tree, partly bc of its size and partly bc it had a fern like accent and some tropicall looking leaf and any ways it was really big with three big white roses, a silver ribbon and some black glittery net, but very pretty. Every time he "got out of hand" i threatened to hit him with "the tree."

We went to dinner at Barley's near Westglen after going back to his house because he had left his ID badge at home. The wait wasn't long, the food was good, he assured us it was good american food. Um it was fairly expensive but oh well. I was the only one that got dinner, bob=appetizer, and jake got an appetizer bc he had had a big lunch. So my meal was like $11 and he ended up paying for everyone's meal, which was really sweet considering he wasn't my boyfriend and even if he was i wouldn't want him to feel obligated to pay for everything. Oh and as soon as we were seated the waitress called him sweetie, i had been callin him honey all night and he said that she was hot and there was just something about waitresses that are so hot. right. His "tan suit" consisted of a tan almost silvery looking shirt with a tie of almost the saime color and a black every thing else. He said he had really been wanting to wear it (sounds like a girl and i told him that).

We finally got to the dance around 9 i think. We took a pic infront of the moonbackdrop for $25. While waitig in line i went to poke him in the stomach and my purse hit him in a most unfortunate area for him. I didn't mean to but he quickly pointed out that if there was any force behind the purse it would have been bad ( i didn't mean to and kept telling him this to his disbelief, oh well, it was pretty funny to me!) Downstairs in the cafeteria where the dance was it was sweltering hot. SAUNA! We found meg and then who we were meeting to go bowling with afterwards and dances near them in "make out corner".We danced to a couple up beat songs and then sat down. That was when he said, do you think we should make it official, do u want to be my girlfriend? I said yes--of course! I didn't think i would ever hear those words from him honestly! It was so nice having him reach for my hand when we went places instead of the other way around. We danced to a slow song and he kept trying to bend down so he wasn't so tall for me. I thought that was sweet but i said he didn't need to, (I like my men tall). After a couple more upbeat songs, sweaty palms, perspiring foreheads, and soggy clothes we decided to leave and i think that was around 10? He wasn't upset that he didn't go to any homecoming dance before this year.

Then we drove all the way out to park lanes near Barley's and upon getting there we see that everyone else had changed from their dresses. Jake supposidly knew and was suppose to tell us but he didn't. It was at this time that bobbie knocked one of the roses (mid one) off my tree. Well he ended up taking us back to my house for me and bob to change. So that was the second time we went home this way on 435 to I-70.

This brings the next scene of the saga that was homecoming night to a start. I thought i would have clothes that would fit bob, i mean we aren't that much different in size right? Well obviously i was very wrong. I gave her my biggest pair of pants to try on and they didn't fit so she ended up wearing the pair of jeans she gave me a couple months ago that were too small for her but were the biggest jeans i had. They were skin tight on her. It was weird seeing her in my clothes, and later she ended up spending the night and wearing them the next day. Well of course jake had to make a few cracks, ok make that several, about her tight pants, but i couldn't help it i am like a size 10-12 and she is like a size 16-18, so there is a whole size inbetween there. We finally get back to the bowling alley making smart ass remarks about how we had already seen this stretch of highway before, TWICE and the changin condition of the fog on the side of the highway. They thought we weren't coming back and were going to leave in a little bit to go to Denny's. We ended up playing 1.5 games. It was cool bc they had like smoke come out just when u needed to throw the ball so u couldn't really see. On the first game jake got a 104 and i came in second with a 99 followed by halley and bob. In the middle of the second game my stomach decided it wanted to kill me. We ended up leaving. He stopped at a Texaco for me and bought me 2 7ups ( he was workin up the brownie pts) while i was in the bathroom one last time before we took 435 to I-70 home for the third time. I joked inbetween bursts of pain that he had given me his stomach flu. He dropped us off at my house around 1:30 and was really sincere.

So yah, i am no longer single but i still haven't kissed the guy. First i had a cold, then he now has a cough left over from a stomach flu, and then i got sick that night. so yah nothing has happened yet. I think we might go see Underworld together this weekend if he isn't doing anything, though i think elsbe wanted to do something, but not with jake? Oh well. At the bowling alley Kristy came up and asked if we were goin out yet and he said yes, she then proceeded to hug us together.

Today at school he was late to first hr so i didn't see him before school and he sits on the other side of the auditorium in first hr. Talked to him 3rd hr and he said he didn't even want to come to school today bc he was so behind with being gone last thurs and fri. Uh yah guy, u can jus not come to school when ever u please, not. He wasn't feeling all that great today, or maybe he just wasn't in a great mood bc he was frustrated from being behind a lesson in math. Oh and at lunch he didn't sit by me, he got there after i did, said there wasn't room by me so i should go sit by him. Well bob made him turn around and say hi to me, swear, like i couldn't handle not saying hi to the guy. She has always been like that, geez.

So hopefully we will both be well and we can do "something" this weekend, like yah. But, yah.

Write more later
