Early Friday Bed Shenanigans

Sissy Jennifer brought that guy back home last night. Kevin and I were worried sick about her; she hadn't returned by 1.30 A.M. from her office's Christmas party and she didn't have a mobile phone on her. Around 2 A.M., we heard them come in. They slammed doors, stomped around the apartment, and eventually settled into her bedroom. My bed is against the wall that separates our bedroom, so I could hear them talking and giggling for the next hour - comments of his interspered with "No! Really?" from her, followed by girly giggles.

Kevin made the brilliant observation that we'll need earplugs if Jennifer and Dan-the-jeans-borrower become an item. He is 22 years old and she is 31.

The alarm clock rang at 7.30 A.M. I turned on the stereo and put on The Trashcan Sinatra's Weightlifting, which must be one of the best albums to hear in the morning when you are still half-asleep.

Later, when I was having breakfast, Jennifer walked into our bedroom and asked Kevin if Dan could borrow a t-shirt. Kevin handed over a Belle-Rendezvous promo t-shirt he won from Gosh Comics - black with neon orange letterings. Bless his heart! No prizes for guessing Dan declined to borrow it. Sometimes, I wish I was as smart as Kevin.

Dan thanked me for lending him the pair of jeans. He left it by my bed, inside a plastic bag. Gonna have a good sniff at it when I get home tonight.

Did you decide to abstain from the poll?

I find it difficult to make judgments about "romantic" relationships because my own marriage is so far from being romantic and the way we got together was so unusual. The difference between friendship and "romantic relationship" is sort of nonexistent with us. There just wasn't an option that I agreed with, I guess.

I told Jennifer tonight about the poll and she almost pissed her pants laughing. :)
