asheville break

My lover and I went to the WaHo this morning and had our usual All Star Special. We got to hold a baby that was in the next booth. His name was Issac and he sucked on Jen's finger with his one tooth that's sprouting. He kept making faces at me and when I stuck my tongue out, he smiled and drooled all over the place. His mom said that we should definitely think about having one. I told her I was going to wait a little while, but maybe sooner than later, we would go to the bank.

We saw Dr. David Hopes in his yard. He was watering flowers and I yelled out, "Hey, Dr. Hopes!" He smiled very big and waved in a gayish way to us. We were going to stop by, but Jen wouldn't let me.

Last night was the Women's Studies party of which only Dr. H. and I showed up. Then, mysteriously, the only girl in the class that didn't get the email happened to eat there and so she joined us. Lori and I drank Scout Stout and we all went back to her place to see Belly, her dog, and the dog she's sitting, Boudreux. Fun was had by all.

Fun is seriously underrated. It's good to be able to have fun wherever you are, I think, even if you're uncomfortable, because you can enjoy yourself no matter what. I think Stevo is probably the most comfortable person I know. I mean, he's insecure, just like everyone is to some extent, but that doesn't stop him from just being himself. I can't wait to be home again and see my friends there, though I'm going to miss everyone here.

I'm probably going to be in Asheville for most of the summer, which will be great because I'll be able to attend Drinking Liberally and hang out with my new friends there. What great people! Big hearts to Susan, Felicity, Gordon, Kai, Aric, Jeff, and everyone else whose names escape me.
