I swear I never meant to let it die

Well, here I am again. Single. Oh wait a sec, what am I saying, I haven't been single in years. Ha.

I've been scrubbing this blog clean for the last few days to get ready to make it public again. Yeah I've been a little bit bitter, I think, so it was worthwhile to take the blog off line. Plus this is something to channel all of my energy into :)

A lot has been going on - work is keeping me pretty busy and I've been spending a bit of time with some new friends from work in Ann Arbor, which has been real awesome. Something new, you know? Thing only thing is that I am once again the baby of the group and just so happen to be the only one under 21 :( But I'm getting used to thinking about this ahead of time so I don't keep bogging people down.

At the Ann Arbor Art Fair I went to a few weeks back, we watched Tyrone Wells in concert. It was the first I'd heard of him but I bought the CD online :) His song "Sea Breeze" has got to be the most romantic song I've ever heard, hands down. I also really like "No Good Without You".

I spent the evening with CE, BGS, DB, and his girlfriend EL moving the guys into their new condo. I didn't wallow as much as I thought I would today. As a matter of fact, I had a lot of fun and it definitely took my mind off of everything. But here I am again at home, listening to sappy love songs, and feeling a bit of the break up aftermath. And I was just thinking of everything we've been planning: Cedar Point, Chinese classes, Catherine's wedding reception (which I RSVP'd for for him to come as my date already), Zoo Day, our talks about the Chicago trip, Sushi House... And I guess this also means no reunion of our gang this year, which upsets me.

I don't know if this was the right decision because I love and care so much about him, but I just can't handle a relationship anymore.

A weekend of sun and drama

The weekend in a list:
- Panera with the Rinc. gang
- Ikea with Courtney
- Air show
- Go carting
- Megan's

Oh CSC you broke my heart

It's kind of crazy how commercialized CSC has gotten! I went with Jason, D, and Steve and recognized maybe 2 people total.

My mother upsets me greatly

After how much I've tried to do putting myself out there and vouching for the right people *ahem* it's just not enough for her!

It kills me that I'm not the only one upset with myself for this.

You're the party baby, I'm just the guest list

Pictures from this past week: taking a boat from Jason's cottage to the Detroit fireworks, grilling outside on the patio with the other interns/E1s, dinner with the robotics folks, and partying it up with Megan, Matt and D.
