A Phone Call
Current mood: flirty
A couple days ago, Tuesday evening, I was at Krannert busy working on a bodice for my Draping Class. All of a sudden I had a fabulous idea. Clint was IMing me and I remembered that he leads a men's bible study/ breakfast on Wednesday morning. So I got all the information as to where, when, and who's all invited. Clint was most helpful. Then, I decided to pass this information on to Joe! These two guys have still yet to meet and it's ... well... silly. Boys are just so complicated and exacerbating sometimes! Bleh. This would be a remarkable opportunity for the two guys to meet, plus, Joe would get a taste and feel for how Clint works in ministry. Plus, Pete could go which would inevitably further bond and cement their familial relationship.
Aside from all that, I just wanted an excuse to call Joe. **insert girlish giggle here**
I called Joe and he answered but he couldn't talk right away, because he was dry walling. Random and manly.. i know! But after an hour or so, he called me back. I was uber excited! We just chit chatted for a bit, he explained that he got a new couch and why he was dry walling and I talked about being at Krannert and my bodice. I then was able to inform him about the breakfast. Joe seemed interested. But he wasn't able to go this week because it was short notice and he's not much of a morning person. Perhaps next week.
After this, i thought we would simply get off the phone and that would be that. But! To my most elated delightment, our conversation continued. We discusses things like kitties, ferrets, and kitty litter. Also, we talked about our work. I explained to him some of the design and my future desires relating to my field, and he told me about selling cars. He encouraged me to go to California for the summer in order to strengthen my career as well. Umm.. I know we talked about a lot of other stuff, but I can't quite remember it at this moment. But that's ok! We talked for a good hour. When we hung up I was quite chipper, but still not really sure if Joe likes me.
I mean, he did take time out of his day to talk with me, and he did call me back that evening and didn't make me wait a few days. Also, I talked to Laura last night and she informed me that when Joe had gotten home right before he called me, he had seemed rather excited about calling me back. Of course, he could have just been excited about the couch. But we'll just say, it was me.
My saturday night is most likely goign to be filled with homework and research. This saddens me to an extent because I would love to be able to see Joe and hang out with him. However, because he has Easter plans, I don't think this is an option and I'm not sure if I should say something or ask, because well.. I don't want him to feel pressured, though he might like it because then well it's obvious I like him and want to spend time with him.
This is where it sucks. When i was going out with Clint, he always called me. I mean.. that boy, called me! and oh the conversations we had. I suppose I'm just used to being treated that way now. I expect it. I deserve it. And I want Joe to pay attention to me and make an effort where I'm concerned. Yet I still have to consider that we are just getting to know one another, nothing is official, and we really don't know anything about one another. But then again.. I'm super cute, fun, and hella adorable.
Le sigh... oh these games we play. In them we find such exuberance and an exhaltation of our most intense moments of zen. They create a world of mystery and challenges that pull our intangible souls to the most extreme of emotions and experiences. How can such small and insignificant nuances be the breaker of great and powerful beings?
