1. Just got back from April’s side of town. Visibility was absolute crap due to a thick marine layer; made for some much slower driving in some spots. Lots of great conversation today. This afternoon sitting in her room, talking about childhood’s and the lack thereof. Tonight at the park, when she brought up wanting to exercise more. We’re going to look into a gym membership for the first of the year, and we talked about all sorts of things that we could do together. I could teach her MA, she could teach me volley ball. We could bike, hike, swim. There really is quite a bit to do with one another. Then later on, as we shifted from talking about sex and how her roommates are handling our relationship, we started talking about changes. She asked me what kind of jobs she could get, and we eventually talked about grad schools. I think she hasn’t had the chance to really talk a lot of this stuff through with anyone, or maybe just in a while. But I think she left with lots of thoughts of new possible directions. I’m starting to see that edge and that spark that I so desire.
I can see a future with this girl. Mom and I spoke quite a bit about it on Saturday, about what kind of person April is and what the future would be like with her. I see us falling in love, moving in together, getting each other through grad school, getting married, having kids, the whole thing. It’s a wonderful feeling, one that gets stronger almost every time I see her.
2. Work has been crap the last two weeks, and has left me uninspired, unmotivated and bored. I think going back to school is definitely in order, and am starting to lean to just getting in to any MBA program as a prep for a Ph.D. I probably still have a shot at starting next fall (or maybe winter) if I get my butt in gear and make a decision.
3. That girl in Art class is turning up the heat. It’s flattering.
Talked a bit more with Sam. She is a really cool person. I hope that I get to know her a bit more before the end, and get to keep her as a friend.
