You Look Good In Polos

I remember going over and seeing him in his cute little rugby shirt all laid out on the couch with his cast on. He had just made a mixed tape and gave it to me. I don't think he made it for me, but still it was really cute that he was making mixed tapes. The first song was from Bob Marley. He was totally my boyfriend again. I gave him a mixed tape of girl songs. He hated it and returned it, politely of course. I never returned his tape.

So somehow, it came to be, that we were all going to go out for dinner at Senior Tequilas. I really don't remember how it all went down, but I remember initially telling Mr. T. that I couldn't go. See, it was on a Wednesday and on Wednesday I either cleaned my house completely or did my laundry. Can you imagine how lame he must of felt when I told him I couldn't go because I was doing my laundry? I am such a dork because I really wanted to go but it didn't initially occur to me that I could do my laundry another day. Once it occurred to me, I called backed and asked if the invitation was still open.

It was.

Dinner was super fun. I wore my new prana pants that I had bought for my upcoming climbing trips. (yes, i am that much of a dork). We shared fajatas. Mr. T. offered to pay for them all, but I asked to pay for my half. He was impressed with that.

He didn't have much to do, so he wanted to hang out a lot. That worked out well because I really only had one friend. He would go with me to the laundry mat and help me fold my clothes. We even left my sheets there one time because we were too busy talking. And blushing.

He let me borrow his mountain bike. I didn't have any place to store it so I stored it up on its back wheel in my closet. It was hard to close the door so I kinda slammed it on the bike. I realize now how much that must have freaked him out. I was oblivious to how much it really cost.

Finally, at the end of March, the day before I was going to climb at Red Rocks, he asked to kissed me.

And I let him.

It was a good decision.

tomorrow - And then all that other stuff
