I'm excited! I'm meeting Jonah's boyfriend for the first time today! I don't know why I'm so excited though. I'm sure if he was dating a girl, I would not be all that excited to meet her. It would be more like, "Oh cool some chick, awesome." Maybe it's the fact that this is the first boyfriend of his that I actually get to meet, or even really know about. Can't wait though! Jonah was so excited when he found out his beau (Jake is his name) was coming. I love seeing him so happy! He acts so in love when he talks about Jake, the are always on the phone together, and never has anything but good things to say about him, and how much he misses him. Although I'm confused because last week I walked in on him making out with this girl we know. Very confusing. ?????
On another topic, things have been weird with Kat lately. She's been home from college for about a week, and so far I have seen her once, and it was like for 20 minutes and then she left. To hang out with her boyfriend I think. But its not like this is a new relationship, they have been together for about 2 years, and she's usually pretty good about balancing her time between friends and her boyfriend. Jared and Jonah seem to think she's lost maturity over the last year and is letting her boyfriend control her more. She also sent Jonah a text that said "You're a pimp, but you don't have the shit to back it up," and neither Jonah nor I can figure out exactly what that means. Any ideas? I'm kinda worrying about her strange behavior lately, and hows she alienating friends, including me! I'll always be her friend, but she's less desirable to actually spend lot of time with lately. The boys wont even answer her call/texts a lot of the time. But me and Kat are going shopping in about 2 hours, so hopefully I can figure out whats going on, and tell her whats up.
P.S.- Jared finally met Seth and was actually nice to him, and has since stopped giving me shit about it. But it's only been like 3 days so we'll have to wait and see.

Aged to Perfection
One thing I think I have failed to mention in the blog is the fact that Seth is 25. I'm 19. There has been mixed opinions among my friends if this is O.K. or not. When I first met him, I asked my best friend Kat "How old is too old for me?" She didn't know I had met someone new yet, but when I asked this she knew I did. She said as long as they are under 30 its fine. All the girls I'm friends with seem to think that me dating a 25 year old is totally fine, even a good thing.
But my guy friends were less enthused, especially one friend Jared. He's overprotective of me, and says 25 is WAYYYYY to old. 21 would probably be pushing it in his book. Which is crazy because when he was 18, he dated a 15 year old. Anyway Jared doesn't approve of our relationship, and he hasn't even met Seth yet.
Anyway, Seth came over to my house last night.(yay!! It had been a week since I saw him and was starting to really miss him!) He met my mom. Ahhhhh! I was not as excited for them to meet as he was. He didn't come over specifically to meet my parents so when he got there I was ready to leave and not have them meet. He wanted to.
After he left of course my mom started asking questions. One of the first ones being "How old is he." Surprisingly after I reluctantly told her, she was cool with it. I thought she would freak out for sure. Then she said he seemed really sweet and was cute. I hadn't said anything about Seth to my mom yet, because I thought she would care more about the age difference, so it feels kinda good that now she knows about him.
I personally enjoy dating older. Seth has a full time job, and has already experienced the college life, so he is more ready to have an actual relationship than most college guys. But at the same time he still lives in a college town, and like to go to parties and bars on the weekends. Plus, I get to make fun of him for being a senior citizen, and ask him if we need to go deposit his social security check. Ha.

Shay's Friend Refrence Guide
I realized I talk about a lot of my friends without giving much description of them so I will do that now. In alphabetical order. This will probably be a long list, with updates when necessary.
Al (25)- My neighbor in my apartment sophomore year of college, had a major crush on me, and we used to drink about 5 nights a week. It seems like he is always getting in trouble with the law!!
Blaine (22)- Another creepster neighbor I had sophomore year. He would confess his love for me through angry drunken text messages. Wonderful neighbors I had.
Bree (20)- My roommate sophomore year of college. Not the best roommate I have ever had. She is fun to party with, but doesn't pay her rent and borrows whatever the hell she feels like borrowing from me. I've seen her do coke at parties, so that's probably where she blows the money she should be spending on rent.
Brigit (20)- A friend from high school. She sends the most random pointless texts ever, and is what I consider the comic relief in my life story! Just think you're stereotypical "dumb blond"
Jared (22)- A close friend of mine from high school. We used to be really really close, together all the time, but have recently started growing apart, although we are still friends at the end of the day. He is very overprotective of me, and doesn't approve of Seth, although he has never met him.
Jess (24)- My sister. She's 24 and now that we are getting older we are getting closer. She is recently engaged and getting married in June 2009.
Joel (20)- He was my first real serious boyfriend, when I was in 10th grade. We dated for over a year, and he was absolutely my first love. I still care about him a lot, and we talk all the time. He lives out of state though. My mom still believes I will end up with him one day. He talks about our marriage plans too. Hah.
Jonah (20)- Close friend from high school. Last spring break he came out to me, even though we all had it figured out already. But I was glad he felt he trusted me enough to be the first one he told. He's notorious for being hard to get a hold of and randomly disappearing all the time. His house is much like Eric Foreman's basement for us.
Kat (20)- My best friend. We met in 4th grade when she moved in 3 houses away from me, and we are still best friends. In the ten years we have been friends, we have never even been in a fight. She goes to a college that is only about 15 minutes away from the one I go to, so I get to see her a lot, thank god.
Keri (20)- Another close friend of mine who lived on the same street as me growing up. We go to the same college, and she's one of my current roommates. LOVE LOVE LOVE her!!!
Marie (21)- Another very close friend of mine from high school. She has an apartment in my hometown, so I really only see her when I'm staying at my parents. She is insane, in a good way.
Mason (21)- The guy I dated on and off all of Freshman year of college. We were extremely close though while dating, he was my first and best friend at college at the time. We just get each other. Now we are just friends, and we don't see each other that often. There is still some sexual tension in the friendship and we always end up hooking up again.
Megan (20)- My other roommate. She's alright. I wish she would hang out with me and Keri more though.
Ray (21)-another friend from back home, a lot of people think he's kind of shy, but he's not around me and he and I are very close.
Seth (25)- My current on/off kinda ex-boyfriend. Confused? ha. We met in late January 2008, and had our first date the day after we met. I met him at college, although he's 25 and graduated in 2007. He lives permanently in my college town.
Wade (20)- We dated for 2 years in high school, and even decided to go to college together. Then we broke up at the beginning of college. We got back together for a while spring semester of freshman year, but it just doesn't work between us. He now lives across the street from me, and we hang out a couple of times a week. He's one of my closest friends, and a person I can really trust and confide in.
Al (25)- My neighbor in my apartment sophomore year of college, had a major crush on me, and we used to drink about 5 nights a week. It seems like he is always getting in trouble with the law!!

Oh man, its been a month!?
Damn, almost a month since my last post! Fucking finals! I had about 6 papers to write, no fun at all. Now I am officially living at home for the summer. I moved back on Saturday evening. Starting my long long summer away from Seth. Luckily for you it's only been like 3 days since I've seen him last, so I don't miss him too much yet, and won't yammer on and on about it. I might be seeing him on Thursday anyway, since he has to drive through this area he might stop by. My friends and I are also planning our yearly week long trip to my friend Marie's cabin. It's my favorite week of the year. And Seth will be joining us this year! Yay for Boyfriend/Friend bonding!!
Oh, and remember Al? My neighbor? He just got his 4th dwi, and is now going to prison for 4 years. Damn. What a catch. Maybe I should have dated him when I got the chance. Not.
Although I am sad because he was sure as hell fun to party with, and always got me into the bars, even though I'm not 21, and don't have a fake. He wouldn't have been my neighbor anyway, because I'm moving next year with 2 friends that I'm pretty sure I'll like living with a lot more than my current roommate Bree. She's fun to party with, but not such a good roommate. These other two girls are pretty clean though, and I'm afraid I'll be the messy one. Their names are Megan and Keri. Megan and I lived together in the dorms freshman year, and got a long great so I know I can live with her. And me and Keri have been friends since elementary school, so next year should be all time.
A few days before I moved out, my ex Mason came over to pick up some stuff he had left at my apartment, and I had been dreading having him stop over. It sounds crazy, but even though I don't have romantic feelings for him anymore, we have great sexual chemistry, and I was doubting my resisting abilities. Every time we hang out since our break up, it leads to us hooking up. He always initiates, but for me he is hard to resist, and I'm not sure why. It's not a looks thing, or that he is even all that charming. He's a great kisser though, and great at everything else. Once he touches me I feel powerless.
So when he came over I knew what he was expecting. So I gave him his things and then he asked for a hug. Harmless right? We're still friends, so I hugged him. Once I pulled away a little bit, he went in for the kiss. Thinking as fast as I turned my head and he ended up kissing my ear??? It was weird, and he asked what was wrong. I told him I was dating someone and Mason seemed surprised I wasn't going to go for it with him anyway. After that he pretty much bolted for the door as we said some awkward goodbyes. About a half hour after he left he texted me "I'm proud of you." I asked him what he meant, and all he said was "You're a good person."
So thats been the highlights of the last few weeks, I'm sure there is much more, but I don't wanna make this too long. I'll try to keep up more.
Peace!
