Summer Lovin'

Good Evening ladies and gentlemen! (also continuing this in the morning!)

At work again and it's very boring so I'll start this post about the last month-ish. Hopefully I can finish the backstory and start posting in real time!

Brian and I broke up after May long weekend which was kind of a surprise but also not...hard to explain. He still owes me $600 for breaking my laptop screen and shorts I bought him and he refuses to talk to me. I'm thinking this may go to small claims court. Peoples court anyone!? Anyways, so my co-workers and I like to hang out, outside of work and we usually go to earls. So About 4 days after I had broken up with Brian, we went to Earls. My friend from work G and I carpooled since we lived in about the same area and then one of us could drink. It was a good set up. One of the guys I work with, A, text me after saying he had to tell me something but it was awkward for him to tell him. I told him he can't just say that and not tell me so he said that when I went to the bathroom G told everyone that he had a thing for me. 4 days after breaking up with Brian. Yes. The Drama never ends. So that put me in the awkward places since I work with him 4 days a week practically. I wasn't going to say anything because that just causes problems I don't need. I went on my merry way just ignore it.

At work a couple days later, James told me about what G said too. It wasn't a big deal because clearly James had liked me before and we worked together find and also G hadn't said anything to my face so I just pretended like it didn't exist. He started texting me while I was in minneapolis practically every day so if I didn't know already, I would have figured it out then. When I was driving back to Winnipeg he asked what I was up to when I got back in the city. Not really a big deal and I wasn't doing anything so he asked if I wanted to go see Indiana jones with which was fine. We had talked about going at work when we were "friends" so I figured it was okay to do this as friends. Oh also, when I was in Minneapolis I picked up 2 cases of cherry sev for him because its his favourite drink (Mine too!) Just thought I was being a good friends and such... anyways, where was I... yes, So we went to the movie and he tried paying which was interesting considering I said it was just friends but he ended up agreeing to let me pay for myself. I'm a big girl! The movie sucked but going with G was fine.

After the movie, he wanted to hang out more and more. Clearly I knew his motive but he never acknowledged that he liked me or that I knew he liked me. James told G that another coworker had told me that G liked me, which was a lie, but whatever the case G knew that I knew.. (so confusing!) We hung out a bit after that and went bowling nothing crazy but it was really pissing me off that he wouldn't say anything. I don't need a guy that can't speak his mind or is intimidated by me. I mean, cmon, it's been a couple weeks of hanging out I think I've figured it out by now. So one night we went to BDI for ice cream and went for a walk (yes as friends. Who does that!? I think I KNOWWWW). I started laying hints about how another girl at work knew one of the staff liked her and he told everyone except her which made it awkward. I hoped he would get it. I really couldn't take him not saying anything!

We went to Earls (I know, we are there quite often) on the wednesday and it was myself, A, James and G. I was driving and so was A so James and G got mightly loaded. A was telling me how James texts Julia all the time and wants to get back with her. He also has called her house trying to find her but she won't return his calls. You know why? Because she has a boyfriend! If only he would learn. James had been telling A about the entire Julia drama and was getting to the part where I came in. A didn't work with us last year so he missed out on that saga. Just as he started to talk about me, G and I walked into earls so that story was over. Later in the night we were all sitting together at a roundtable and G started to talk to James about me. Both A and I could hear him and he used a crafty (not) construction allusion to our relationship. He didn't know if the "like" was going both ways or whether it was a one way street. A after told me he had to tell me something about James and he called me after Earls.

I was told by my favourite gossip queen at work, A, that James had come up to A on his (James) birthday and said that he wanted me. We all went to Earls together for James' birthday and I noticed towards the end of the night that James was gravitating towards me. I figured it wasn't a big deal because we were friends (finally!) and things weren't awkward at all between us. Also how much to I love the word awkward haha. Okay so yes, James told A he wanted me and that whenever we go out he finds me very attractive. So yes. Two of my coworkers out of 6 I work with, like me. James wants another shot and G is trying to get one. Wowwowow. How dumb. So after that I decided that I wasn't going to accelerate my own decision/demise so I didn't ask either of them about it. I would deal with it when someone said something. Which thank god G did.

This deserves a fresh start.. new post time!

As always,
