Things are I suppose OK for now…

Basically, with Ryan it’s up to me to decide what happens– he says he knows how he feels about everything, now I just have to figure it out for myself.

He’s been making more of an effort this last week– asking me how I am, doing things with me, actually holding my hand while we walk– and that makes me feel a lot more secure about things. I have been rather paranoid lately that he’s just waiting for an excuse to break up with me. I don’t feel that way now.

Ryan’s coming down with something– his lymph nodes in his neck are swollen, his throat hurts, and he feels very tired. Poor guy. Wants me to “nurse” him back to health. :-) I don’t mind taking care of him at all when he’s sick, and I get a chance to baby him (which he normally hates), so as long as I can keep myself from catching his illness I’ll be fine.

Today Ryan and I went and picked up his copy of Ut2k3, and on our way home we stopped at the Krispy Kreme! His mom left him ten dollars worth of gift certificates to there, so we spent a few and got ourselves a dozen glazed. The donuts were fresh when we got there, too, so our free donuts tasted absolutely wonderful.

Lotsa stuff to do for Vampires and Voodoo by Thursday… and I have a chem lab to type up and quizzes to take, and sociology to read… just a lot of homework lately. Mid-term times suck. Today at dinner Paul suggested that he, Charles, and I get our stuff and go to the library to work on our quizzes so we don’t get distracted. Ryan thought this was a fine idea except the whole Chuck thing. Charles wasn’t at dinner tonight (some ASME meeting or something) to retort back, so we left it at that. I rather wish Charles wouldn’t come work with us, though, b/c he’s just absolutely horrid in a group. I hate his ego, his insistance to talk just to generate noise (seriously– he has to have noise or else he gets aprehensive), and his lack of willingness to help. He’s not one suited to group work. He’s also not fun to try to work on homework around either. I gave up working on my chem stuff until after he left he got so annoying.

Enough with the complaining, I feel rather good right now. *goes to read for a while and then get ready for bed*
