So the other day (May 29) was a pretty good day.
I haven't had one of those in a while. ^-^
Anyway, about a week prior to that, I had asked Bailey if I could take her out for a Birthday dinner to anywhere she wanted (she turns 20 on the 31st), and she picked to go to the Olive Garden.
I like the Olive Garden for the most part. I've only been there a few times, but as far as I could remember, it was pretty tasty.
So here I am, all sorts of excited that I get to go out with Bailey to dinner, then a few days later she texts me and asks me to invite people (via Chris, Dana, Cameron, Katie, etc.) I was like "-.- Ghey..." but Ok. So I invited them all, but the only one who could come was Dana. Which was Ok.
So the day comes, and I have nothing else better to do with my life before then but watch about Jennifer Lopez on True Hollywood Stories.
When the time came, I went to Dana's to pick her up, and we end up taking forever to get ready because Dana had just gotten her hair cut and she needed to make herself look hella attractive because this girl she met at her work that she's kinda dating was gonna come but dropped out last minute. Dana was sad about it for a minute, but then got over it quickly.
So we get to Olive Garden, and Dana is SOO interested in the mountains to the East because they were green instead of their usual blue/purple and white from the snow. So she tells me to take a picture because my phone is better than hers but my phone couldn't zoom in that far. So I got out of the car, and started to run acrossed the parking lot JUST to get a picture of the damn mountains to please Dana's memory of the green mountains. XD
Anywho, Bailey pulls up and pulls Quinton out of his car seat, and she looked AMAZING, as always. She was wearing one of my favorite shirts of hers. I don't know how to describe it, but I love it.
So we go in, it's hella packed, but we didn't have to wait. Bailey ordered this really tasty strawberry drink and the whole time she just dipped a half eaten strawberry in it and just sucked on it.
Deep Throat jokes flew all around. Along with a lot of Sex Jokes and why Quinton was sitting there with us. I was out of the Loop, though. I was kinda off in my own World the whole time. I just kinda had this sweet high of being around friends.
I swear to GOD, my friends and I are NOT allowed to go to Family Restaurants during the day... We are so obscene, and extremely loud about it.
So anyway, I made the staff sing to Bailey, and we had lolly good times.
After dinner we parted from Bailey, and Dana got the idea of going to visit Phil. Which is cool. I love Phil! :D
So we went and saw Phil and the rest of his homies, including this INCREDIBLE fully restored 1965 Midnight Blue Ford Mustang. OMG it was soo sexy... I would've traded the Guy my Neon for his 'stang that second. XD
So we got bored of Phil's Homies because they were playing D and D and I'm not much of a fan of that, so we went to Coffee Break Dowtown.
Oh my gosh I got this Raspberry Italian Cream Soda and it was the greatest thing since sex! And sex is great!
So we sat down and smoked and read a IN Weekly, and read about the Pride Festival coming up.
Then Aldo text Dana and said he was seeing the movie UP.
Dana and I looked at each other and thought "WTF? Is that even out yet?"
Then he said it was for a Midnight showing.
Dana looked at me and said "Duh. I wanna go see UP!"
...
So we decided to go see UP.
I booked it down south to the closest movie theatre and we pretty much ran inside to the theatre. Thank god we got there when the previews were still going.
We couldn't see it in 3D, though, unfortunately. Due to my blind right eye, I can't really see movies in 3D so we had to settle for the norm. Which was fine.
I fricken' love Disney/Pixar.
This movie was adorable. I don't want to say much about it though. Don't want to spoil. :P
I just have to say I love the bird named Kevin. XD She's like... A Whitty/Dana/Katie Bird thing.
Enough said.
XD
So after the movie I took Dana home and came home and gave Jasper a hair cut because his fur kept getting ratted up and tied up in knots.
I did an Ok job, but it's nothing professional.
But now you can definately tell he's a Yorkie. (:
But yes. It was a good day. Those days need to happen more, yeah?

Unexpected Add & Message
I -really- wanted to make a Vlog instead of a Blog on this subject, but Cameron took his Webcam back. T^T He gave me a different one to use, but I can't find any video recording software to record videos. If you know of any (that are free), let me know. I really like Vlogging. :3 (I have Windows Vista, btw.)

The other night, I logged onto Facebook and I had a message and a Friend Approval. I didn't really think anything of it, until I saw who it was.
DJ.
I was VERY surprised. I added him a few weeks ago, for some reason, and I didn't really expect him to Approve. I figured maybe he'd laugh and think "Yeah, right!" or send me a hate letter bitching me out for even trying something like that.
When I saw that the message I had received was from him, my heart skipped a few beats and my adrenaline started to pump like crazy. It was titled "...Hi". I was scared to death to open it. It took a lot of hesitation, but I opened it. At first I considered just deleting it without reading because I had figured that it was him bitching me out for adding him, and saying "I can't believe you're not over it blah blah", because I had received messages like that before in the past from Lex, Roxas, and Kit.
I starred at it for a while, then I opened it. The opening paragraph approved all of my fears.
"It's been a year... pretty much over a year, hasn't it? I'm actually pretty surprised you had the balls to send me an FR... so I have to give you props for that I suppose."
By now I about had a stroke, and I knew that this message would be on my mind for weeks, and would cause me so much stress.
Then the second paragraph took me by total and complete surprise.
"First off I guess I'll state this. Whitney, I don't hate you. You did a lot of shit to me... you burned me pretty hard. Our friendship was pretty strong back then, and you know what? You were one of my best friends... someone I trusted a lot... thought I could turn to..."
My heart was still pumping, and the words "I Don't Hate You" took off a lot of stress. Then I thought "What the... Hell?"
"But this letter isn't meant to be a bash-Whitney letter. It's... to clear things up I suppose. I don't like going to AO and AB and worrying about imposing drama between the two of us... it puts a huge damper on shit y'know? I hate it. And I hated hating you... I'm not a hateful person and it feels like this sick black ball deep inside my core... it's disgusting... so what I'm saying is... I don't think things could ever be like they were... but I'm willing to be civil... and kind of an acquaintance I suppose?"
I had to read this paragraph more than twice to take things in. Was this really happening? I have been waiting for a message like this for a long, long time, and I could not believe what I was reading.
"You did a lot of unforgivable things to me, and you know you did. I don't even have to say 'em. Sometimes as your friend I felt like I was being treated like a dog or a secondary friend... someone you hung with and liked when nobody else was around... I didn't like that. Y'know? It hurt me a lot... I don't know if you even realized that... but it did."
Of course I realized it, Deej... But it was too late to fix things when I had the chance... I had plans for you on your 24th Birthday, but alas, I was torn out of your life a few days before our Birthdays...
"I'm really sad that I ended up losing someone who I laughed with so much... had so many good times with... the park is one of my best memories, with you in your pigtails... gawd that was so long ago... I hope you realize what you've lost too... cuz that friendship was a pretty big thing for me... I think it's why I ended up holding so much malice toward you... I felt utterly betrayed... it hurt like a bitch. It still does."
And I do realize what I had. I have known this for a long, long time. But I knew/know there's nothing I can do to change the past, and I know there's nothing I can do to make up for it. As hard as I can try, there's no way. And I... As well... And as much as I try to avoid it... Hurt still...
"Anyway I guess I've said what I needed to say. I'm willing to be an acquaintance with you on facebook or at cons or when you're around Dana or whatever... I don't hate you. AO was really good, and I was really happy there was no drama."
This is... Such a relief. Sometimes, I don't even want to go to Conventions because I know something might happen, no matter how hard I avoid it. Something always goes down and I don't know why. I don't... Do anything. People just hear me say something wrong, people mistake my glances, but I really really do try to avoid Drama as much as I can. I'm very glad nothing had happened at AO this year. I'm actually very surprised nothing did. I know I wouldn't have started it, like always, but shit happens.
I have been Civil this whole time. And I would love to be Acquaintances. It's probably the closest I am going to get. He said nothing will ever be the same again, and that is very true. But, I am willing to admit, I really wish we could be more than Acquaintances someday... As much as I doubt that will happen, because I know he doesn't want anything to do with me besides that, I can still dream, right?
I had to read that message over and over before I could reply. I am still in disbelief. I never, ever thought, I would get a message like this...
And I am glad.
I am so, so happy.
When I replied, I was litterally in tears, thinking about how badly I had hurt him. DJ was one of my dearest, and closest friends. I could tell him anything. I treasured his and I's friendship more than he thinks. I know I made my mistakes, and I definately learned from them... And like I had said, there's nothing I could do to make it all up to him. As much as I'd like to.
Maybe now I'll be able to smile more...
