So I Stopped Looking for Royal Cities in the Air

CLRG and I had a discussion about photographs on Thursday night. He doesn't like his picture taken. I am aware of this. I decided to bring it up, though, while we were making shells & cheese, because I want to be able to take pictures of us. I'm a historian and it is in my nature to want to preserve things to see them again in the future. He agreed that we could take pictures as long as they weren't super posed and as long as I didn't care that he would make a dumb face and as long as I wouldn't put them on facebook. I agreed. Last night at the bar, we took like 30 pictures. It was very exciting. In them, we are mostly drunk, his eyes are closed and I am laughing, but they are pictures. I am very pleased.

Gully is here visiting, with Petey, since last night. We went to Pacific Ring for dinner and then went to the Cage to meet up with Elle, BFF4E and The Librarian. CLRG and I stayed longer than my guests from out of town did. Not much, but a little. It was a fun evening. Tonight, I think we're going to dinner with Cupcake and tomorrow, we are going to the Josh Ritter show at Diesel. I'm pretty jazzed. The downside is that CLRG won't be coming to those events and I will miss him. I always miss him.

It is slowly dawning on me how little time I have until the semester wraps up and my things are due. I am... excited. Well, I am excited about the end of the semester and the beginning of summer, but I am not excited about the work to be done. Boo. That always happens.

I should shower and get going with the homeworkings and such. I should. But will I?

In the Name of Love

Elle shared this video with me yesterday and I thought it was really awesome. Enjoy.

Push Me Till I Have to Fly

So, confession: I don't like sleeping alone. I've been having sleepover and naptimes with CLRG so frequently since we started dating that I can't remember what it's like to sleep by myself. In fact, I am at home now and I want to go to bed, but I am kind of dreading it. This is a problem, right? I don't know. I also don't actually care because it makes me happy and he makes me happy and this is the way I like it.

Anywaaaaaaaaaay... I have an interview for a summer internship in the morning at The Warhol. I am pretty excited about it. Manders did her museum internship there in the fall and had a really good experience. I am psyched to have the opportunity to do it in the summer and then be able to do a different museum internship in the fall. I'm hoping to do it at the Soldiers and Sailors Museum because my interest in the Civil War has been peaked lately. We'll see how it goes. I think that my friend C would also do his there and we could hang. It would be suuuuuper fun. Wish me luck. I hope it works out!!

Maybe I should get into bed with a book and hope that I can sleep. Yes? Maybe so.

If This Was the Cold War, We Could Keep Each Other Warm

Sometimes I feel like I am doing things all wrong, but then I remember that I am happy and I like the way things are going and I am going to be happy in the long run and it's all okay. Does that make sense?

I believe I found this picture on snippet & ink not long ago. I think it's adorable. It makes me smile. Yep, yep, yep.

There's a Song That Will Linger Forever in Our Ears

I have been very bad with the blogging! Goodness. I'm sorry, March, I have not forgotten about you. I've just been busy and occupied with other things. It's true.

Anyway, the end of March is near. I keep forgetting that this coming weekend is the one during which Gully will come visit with some other Albion people to go to a Josh Ritter show with Elle, Buddy and I. This reminds me... I should call or text Cupcake and see if she wants to come as well. Hmmmmm.

Let's see... happenings of late. There are a few things to report, I suppose. Nothing major.

-Yesterday, I helped CLRG take his lip ring out. Does this make him CG now, instead? I can't decide. He'll probably always be CLRG.
-It is finally Spring, but the weather is being mean and cold and I want it to be nice and warm again like it was once that one week and once that other week. Rawr.
-The Punchline concert on the 7th was awesome. So awesome. I had a quality time.
-I went to CLRG's parents' house on Saturday after I got out of work. He and his dad looked at his car and I sat in the house doing homework and talking to his mom and sister. It was fun times.
-I am hoping that he and I will get to go to Idaho in June for a little while. I think it can work out... but we will seeeeee.
-I have become very interested (obsessed?) with ancestry.com. Oh my. So cool.
-Work has been increasingly difficult to go to. I've been trying to apply for other jobs, but haven't heard a word yet. Kind of frustrating

Well, I need to go find something to lunch on and do reading and research and shower and all of that business because I have today off and I don't have class on Mondays and I need to get something done. Ha.

Pookies!! We got milkshakes when she visited. We are super photogenic. :o)

Spin Round, Tell Me What to Say

Oh my word.

I was alerted to this news article yesterday(?) and read it today and now have goosebumps. Sooooooo cool.

We Got Older, But We're Still Young

Oh my word. I am so ridiculously excited for this weekend, it isn't even funny. Tomorrow, we are celebrating Buddy's birthday by going to dinner and Pookie is coming to visit for a few days and there is a Punchline concert and it will be so thrilling.

The weather is beautiful today and, from what I hear, supposed to be even nicer this weekend. YES!!

The lady at the post office mentioned that we are springing forward this weekend. I totally forgot. Is it really true?
