“Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning and the first thing that I knew…

…There was milk and toast and honey and a bowl of oranges, tooand the sun poured in like butterscotch and stuck to all my sensesOh, won’t you stay, We’ll put on the day…”

– Chelsea Morning, Joni Mitchell.



Me O’ my I had myself quite a weekend, I know that I am posting this really late but, believe it or not I’ve been a tiny bit busy as you soon will see with all the aspects of this Glorious few days. On with the weekend…

Thursday: I went to my classes and yes I even went to Japanese class. No I will never make that mistake again, I am an official “F” no other way around it, and I tried everything except orally pleasuring my Professor and no such luck. Oh well I headed out to Horseheads, NY around 3:00pm. I made it to Rachael’s house around 6:00pm, Tim was there and we talked for a moment. He sent Quinten to bed about 15 minutes before I got there. I was about to cry (If Quinten goes to take a nap this late, he will never sleep.) Tim told me Rachael wanted me to call when I got in. So I called, woke Quinten up and he and I played until Rachael got home around 9:30pm or so. Sharon came home a little (oh Tim= Rach’s father, Sharon= Rach’s Mother) before then but, she was running in and out. (She forgot something at her hairdressers). Anywho Rachael came home and we had fun, I think we watched a movie or two and I of course, got to see some Farscape. I went to bed around 2:30am or so.

Friday: Sharon and Tim woke me up around 7:30am to say goodbye, they were heading down to go to Plattsburgh to surprise Sarah (My Webmaster’s Fiancé and their daughter) I went back to bed and got up around 10:30am. Rachael had the day off and we had planned to go out to see her good friend Misty. I was a little nervous to meet her; I don’t know why I guess I wanted to make a good impression. If you know me I usually never make a good first impression (Just ask Ted Van Houten aka Mr. France in the Pants. I almost beat him up the first time I met him.) So I took a shower and my stomach was still hurting at this time (no matter what I ate, I had horrible heartburn.) so I ate nothing. We had to do some shopping though before we left to Misty’s. We went to Wal*Mart, some grocery store and then we got some subs at Pudgies (I had no idea that they sold subs before, I Rachael sarcastically told me the full name of the store is Pudgies’ Pizza and Subs. Smart ass.) We arrived at Misty’s and I met her and her three children (Anthony, Jonathan and a little girl, I don’t remember her name) not to mention Misty’s mom was there to with one of her children. The kids were cute; the oldest was as sick as a dog though and was sleeping on the couch. This one little kid named Anthony, he was so damned cute. He was missing a few front teeth and had a very small vocabulary but, I knew he wanted me to play with him so, I chased this kid all around Misty’s house and then when I sat down he wanted me to pick him up you, think I resembled Santa Clause or something but, hey I was having fun too but, I got a look from Misty. She told me that this kid didn’t let anyone pick him up ect. So I received Misty’s blessing to continue dating her friend because “I was a decent guy.” I took this as a great compliment. We stayed for a few hours then, as we were ready to head out Misty’s husband came home and so we played (Rachael and I) played babysitter’s for about 30-45 minutes. 15 minutes into our fun, fun sitting. Misty’s mom came there with her I think 3 or 4 kids. My Glorious it was a convention or about 8-10 kids. I just sat there and as I was just observing the youngling’s Rachael came up to me and asked me if I would want that many. The only words that came to mind were “Oh God.” That was it. She told me later that she was kidding, thank Glory. We headed back home later on that night, Rachael did a little of her homework and Quinten and I watched a movie. Later on we put Quinten to bed and watched a movie that Misty let her borrow. I fell asleep and went upstairs to bed around 2:30am.

Saturday: I got up at 9:30 am took a shower, did the dishes and had a little something to eat. Oh I also got some of my homework done. Rachael woke up around 11:00am or so and she started to do a little of her schoolwork. While Rachael was doing her homework, Quinten picked up all his toys, I got him changed and we went out for a walk. We went up and down her street, swapping manly stories and smoking cigars (well maybe Quinten wasn’t smoking but, it sounds manly.) We played a bit in the yard and then went inside. Rachael and I hung out for a bit then she went to work. Quinten and I watched movies, played with cars and made prank calls to Rachael’s workplace. Needless to say, Quinten and I had a ball. Rachael came home after picking up some milk from the store. I put Quinten to bed around 10:30pm or so and Rachael and I stayed up and watched movies and talked about life, love and other mysteries (aka non’a yo business punk!) John got home that night late (John= Rachael’s brother) he was at a youth convention in Utica or some region around there. Rachael and I watched a movie; I went to bed around 3:15am.

Sunday: I got up around 9:00am and I knew that Rachael had to work at 10:45 am. Since it was so quiet though I got more of my homework done but, around 9:20am Quinten woke up and I got him changed and he helped me make breakfast (we made eggs) while listening to the soothing sounds of the Dropkick Murphy’s. I roused Rachael out of bed about 15-20 minutes before she had to leave, made her some coffee and she headed out to work. After Rachael left, Quinten helped me do the dishes and then we went out for a long walk and later on we played outside in the leaves. I called Rachael later on in the afternoon and she told me she was going to stop by home on her lunch break so I made her a sandwich and got her a soda. I put Quinten down for nap and thirty minutes later Rachael came home grabbed the soda (she had a smaller break then expected) and kissed me goodbye (and ran back into her car and went to work). I finished up my homework and woke Quinten up about 4:45pm. Tim and Sharon came home around 5:00pm and I helped Tim unpack and we talked till about 10:00pm when Rachael got home. John got home around 9:00pm and showed me his ceramics (which were quite beautiful, he made them himself) Rachael finished up her homework and we watched a movie, she took a shower, later on Quinten went to bed and we talked and watched some Farscape until 2:45am, when I went to bed.

Monday: I got up around 9:10am, took a shower and woke Rachael up about 10:00am. Kissed her goodbye, made some coffee and headed back to Albany, I ran into a little bad weather outside of Binghamton but, beyond that it was smooth sailing. I laid back and relaxed and called Rachael around 1:40pm when I got back. Did some more relaxing and studying and called Rachael again about 12:30 am and went to bed.

Tuesday: I got up around 7:30am and got my study on for my Juvenile Justice class, then later on got my shower on and drove down to campus for 11:30am. Grabbed a tasty pie, took my test (wow it was a long essay) had a nice lunch and headed out to the mall to pick up my mom a birthday card (it was her birthday yesterday, I called her on Monday night) I went back to campus to my film class and watched the Woody Allen film with Diane Keaton (1976 but, I don’t remember the name but, it was funny) Later on I went to CA (Campus Ambassadors) hung out with my homies, yo and drove back home around 9:30pm. Watched the Daily show and fell asleep around 12:00am, woke up at 3:00am and realized it was 3:00am and called Rachael quickly to tell her that I fell asleep and we decided to talk the next morning.

Wednesday: I got up at 7:20am suited up and ran out to my car and moved it in the freezing 17 degree weather (It was in faculty parking) I moved it into a nice spot came back inside and had a big breakfast and went back to bed until 11:00pm. I got up and called Rachael we talked for a few hours, I took a shower and headed downtown to Draper Hall to go get permission to enter a Criminal Justice class for next semester, just to find out for Criminal Justice I will have wait till the first day of the next semester to get into the class. Booger! So I got back into my car and drove to Getty’s gas station filled Rory up BOK! And went to the mall to work off my lunch and pick up a disposable camera. So I walked through the mall bought a camera at CVS (actually it was buy one get one free, I signed up for a CVS card today.) I drove back to my dorm to find my roommate had bought me a box of tea (he said because he ate me food) he’s the man. Now currently I am typing all this up. I know this is a long Blogg message but, I made it to apologize for the wait. Enjoy. I promise not to wait this long again.
