so mark just left for work. he took all of last week off for his birthday, which actually ended in him taking care of me.

it was really fucking nice having him around.

i feel like summer vacation ended and my best friend is going back to school far far away.



i can't decide if that's sweet or pathetic. either way, I don't think i can go back to sleep like i usually can when he leaves.

Oh, also, today, a nice little old black man I didn't know kissed me in the parking lot behind Spanky's.


I texted this to Mark immediately after it happened. He asked how this happened. I said it was a long story, but the guy had a cool hat. Mark's response was something along the lines of, "You should have told me earlier; I would have bought more hats."

I grinned like an idiot while I was walking towards South Building. Like, around people. As if I had a brain problem.


But yeah, it's a long story.

OH. Also.

A couple nights ago, Mark was laying in bed listening to his iPod before he went to sleep. I got one of the earbuds and we traded off picking songs for one another. It was probably the most adorable thing I've ever done with anyone. I'd say it was cheesy, but it really wasn't, at all. Also, I like him.
