Earthquake, accepting praises, Karen Karen Karen
On Tuesday night, at 7;12, my mom goes “you guys are going to think I’m crazy but I just felt an earth quake” My father and I didn’t feel anything, I was too busy enjoying my Chinese food… my mom asked my father to email the fire Chief of my town and ask him, as they are good friends and he would be one of the first people who would be notified. He responded, affirming what my mom said.
She texted my sister and my cousin. My cousin who lives one street away from the ocean, didn’t feel it but my sister, who lives a few hundred yards from the ocean in a different city, she said she had to jump up and grab the tv so it didn’t crash.
It was the first “earth quake” that my mom ever felt. It messured at 4.0 and was centered up in maine. About 30 mins later (good thing no one got hurt) there was breaking news… we had an earth quake.
Oh well, I missed history. I was too busy enjoying Chinese food
Accepting Praises. One of my worse traits.
I know I have wrote about this a few times over the years but yesterday, Friday, 4 people praised me.
Two bloopers asked me about information, hmm actually one of you asked me and the other I offered, and I got back nice caring thoughtful responses thanking me when all I did was look things up and sent URL’s with the info they need.
Then another friend on here, had a dream about me (wow, about me?) out of that discussion she told me that
“And yes, out of all the people in my life you were in my dream. But you know what? Out of all the people around me when my Mom died, my most traumatic life experience, it was you that helped me the most. Yes you are special.”
Thank you. I just try to be the best friend I can be and one of my greatest assets is being compationate, a good listener and I try to be a good friend.
Later that day, I talked to my college roommate and he even gave me a compliment… he said if it wasn’t for me, he wouldn’t have studied at all. I was like… what? Come on? He goes… no it’s true. I saw you studying so much, it motivated me to study. I told him …thanks to him, I wasn’t a 4.0 student. He goes…how? And I reminded him about that time… 3 week of college, I’m reading my history text and he comes into my room, asks me what I was doing? Then picked me up and didn’t let me get back to my computer. He said I was studying too much and I needed to have fun. We went down to his room and hung out with two more of our friends. I told him, he could have been a 4.0 too if he would have studied with me. He agreed lol.
But I still don’t think I did anything except do what I am suppose to. I wasn’t going to not study or study either way. (except by force lol)
KAREN KAREN KAREN
I don’t know where to start.
Still, every day that she works, I get a phone call about 3pm and talk to her for 20 mins till she gets to work then sometime in the 8-9 hour we both get on messenger through fb and chat till her shift is over at midnight. She calls me a few minutes after midnight and we talk on the phone till she gets home.
I have no idea what we talk about. However, everything at this point is fare game. We have talked about just about everything.
Some life style things that could be an issue for some
, maybe even most people, doesn’t bother me.
She is a vegetarian
She is illergic to alcohol
Yes, I am a “meet and potato” guy for the most part but this does not mean I cant have it when ever we go out. I love vegetables. I usually have a salad with most meals.
When it comes to alcohol, I can very easily do without it. I never “want it” I’ll have a few if I’m at a party or celebration but I defanately don’t need it.
I’ve been saying “I love you” over the phone for a few weeks now and she has said it back to me. She never said it first. On Friday night, she said it first. *smile* I was caught off guard and got a little choked up… I asked her about it the next day, “what were you thinking before you said I love you last night?” she said “that I love you” “I could tell you weren’t expecting it. I could tell you got choked up a bit” I said “you can probably see my grin right now” she “mmhhmm “
I asked her how much she shaves. She said that she has to put it on her check list, because during the winter time, she doesn’t shave her legs. “I wear pants all the time” “just in case you put your hand on my leg, I don’t want you to think I’m a guy” “and I shave my pits” hmm anything else?” “I do trim my pubic hairs but I don’t shave it” She goes what about you? what do you shave? I chuckled I said my face, well, not completely as I have my goatee.
She complains about her um, bf. He’s immature. He’s very time boxing? He thinks something should take x amount of time and it cant go over and when it does, he’s why…why did it take you longer? He also doesn’t have a job. Is not in school, he’s practicing his languages, that’s what he has his degree in, but ok, he studying for some career, but come on, get a regular job to help pay for somethings? He worked at a wallgreens but he quit that because he didn’t like the people there, how they do things. So she pays for everything. He’s also a slob. He doesn’t get his hair cut. He wears clothes that have holes in them and doesn’t see anything wrong with it… and the worst thing, he puts her down and blames everything on everyone else, takes no responsibility.
Ug, don’t get me started on him
She doesn’t have the money to move out or she would.
We love to tease each other. She does a lot of things that I think are cute so I tell her so. “that is so cute” she doesn’t like that lol she goes “err I’m not cute” yes you are. *smile* however, she found something to call me that I’m not too fond of…she goes “your’s adorable” ummm no, I’m not adorable. She thinks I am. Adorable is like when a little girl does something that is…adorable.
I’m never sure how to take things like this…
HER: I’m cold a lot.
ME: I’ll rub your ba-back, and arms.
HER: you were going to say butt.
ME: no, I am going to rub your back and arms.
HER: my butt gets cold too though?
ME: it does?
HER: uh huh
ME: ok, I will rub your butt too. *grin*
At some point, it might have been in my last few entries, I don’t remember… She asked me if “Do you want me to find you a Jewish temple? I don’t know if you do that but I would take you if you wanted.” *smile* “I appreciated it but I don’t go to temple that often. I just go for the high holidays for the most part. “ her “are you sure? I really don’t mind?” no, it’s ok. Thank you. *smile*
Ok, now up until Saturday at 3pm, I thought I was going to sleep on the floor somewhere in the house they have but I was pretty easily convinced other wise.
She told me that basicly they live in 4 rooms. Their bedroom, the game room, the living room and the bathroom. She says the house isn’t hospitable. I wouldn’t feel you would be safe here. The bathroom sink is not working any more so now they do the dishes in the tub. The shower works…when it wants to. The toilet works though. She said that there are also outlets that are hanging out and some wires are frayed. I said to her “It sounds like the happiness hotel. You know muppets?” She said that she hasn’t seen a muppet movie in many years.
She wants me to stay at a hotel. At first I was not so sure about it. My first thought was that it is a Friday-Saturday-Sunday night. I was thinking of prices and figured it would be at least $100 a night… The cheapest I recall paying on a weekend and so I was thinking… I am not crazy about paying an additional 300 plus taxes on top of what I paid for the flight but I would. I also thought-told her,that I would be away from her for like 10 hours a day and I didn’t want that. She said that if I wanted, she would drop me off at 2AM and pick me up at 6AM . I said would you wake me up too? She giggled and said of course.
I did some searching and realized that all the places I’ve stayed at in all the traveling, the reason that they are so expensive, is because I go to NY, Mia, Chicago, Detroit, Houston, etc. In Indiana, I’ll be staying in a town where prices around are 50-79 a night. I can defanately do that.
This was over the phone, so she heard my shock in my voice when I first questioned her. Later on she said that she was sorry she made me upset, she doesn’t want me to be. I know what she was referring to but I asked her when she thought I was upset? She said when she mentioned I should stay at a hotel. I told her that I was never upset at you, I was just surprised in my head at the prices I would have to pay but I would do it. Later on, after I did the research and I thought about it, I thought how much better it would be. I didn’t have to worry about her bf if we wanted to cuddle …or other things.
I said to her: you can even use the shower. How would that be to use a shower that works? She sighed and said “that would be nice”
Hmm near the beginning of the conversation she said that she never let her parents visit her cause the place is amess. She says “I love you too much to let you stay here”
I’m sure I am forgetting a lot of stories since we do talk about 5 hours a day, every day, but I think that’s enough for now.
OH! And I am going to surprise her with the following

She likes swords, and her favorite color is green.
I’m also going to buy a toy for her dog. *grin* I’m sure she will appreciate it.
She has a small lap dog. I’m thinking maybe a small frisby.
