It’s been awhile… Written on March 19, 2008, by Jen.
… but I am currently at the Crazy Mocha in Shadyside with my laptop. I know, right? I can’t remember the last time I was here, I think it’s been about 8 months or so. I haven’t been here since they made it non-smoking, and that happened in May.
The big difference now is that I started liking coffee. I don’t know if it’s because of O (the boyfriend) or not, but when we were in Newport we had Starbucks twice a day and I got a little hooked. I’m currently drinking a triple peppermint mocha and it is delicious.
I’m trying very, very hard not to get into great detail about O and the way that everything went down and all that for several reasons… mostly, though, it because I feel a bit silly about the whole thing. I giggle like a little girl every time the words “my boyfriend” come out of my mouth and I tend to end up talking about him no matter what the conversation has started with, two things that are normally as annoying as shit to me when other people do it. We are those people who hold hands and oogle at each other over the dinner table, the ones who stop walking in the middle of a crowded sidewalk to kiss… in other words, the people who usually annoy the fuck out of me.
My friends all say that this is the best part of a relationship and that I am entitled to my gushing endlessly before it starts to get complicated. Thank God for my friends.
The long distance thing is making me feel a little silly, too, because how much can you really be with someone when he’s a thousand miles away? I’m going to see him next weekend, and he mentioned (as I did in the previous post) that he wants to discuss the next 6 to 12 months. Yes, I know, it might sound a bit ridiculous… he’s said he wants to follow me to Pittsburgh as soon as he’s able to we can be together and try and give this a real shot.
I know I’ve probably said this many, many times over the life of this blog, but it has never been this easy before him. There are no questions, no picking every little thing apart, no asking people’s advice. There’s just me and him. And that’s all I need to know that this is working right now.
It really is a nice feeling when things start to fall into place when you never expected them to, and in a way that you never expected them to.
It is nice to be happy.
