Log 82: Mable's roommates

I love this school so much, but god are the people here rude. Not everyone though, but right now me and Wirt are helping Mable resolve a rooming issue because her dorms CA is doing nothing about it. Really she's done nothing wrong and doesn't deserve to be treated the way she's being treated right now. I'm so mad on her behalf, but she doesn't want me to confront them because she doesn't want me or Wirt to be their target for discussion because apparently all they do is shit talk people. What is this, high school? We both told her we don't mind, but she doesn't want us to, so we have to respect that. It's just such a frustrating situation and it needs to be dealt with soon.

Log 81: Movies

Wirt's had a long day, so I'm taking him out to the movies, my treat. He really needs a break, and after studying all day I could go for a break too.

Log 80: screw this weather

I hate cold weather so much. That’s probably the one thing I miss at Piedmont. I don’t really want to think about the 20th, when we’re going back home, so I won’t for now. It's finals week so I'm kind of stressed about that, even though I already have the corse material down pat. I've been helping Wirt with some of his stuff, but since he's an art student, he doesn't really have many academic classes aside from English. The lucky duck. Also, I can't wait for the weekend. I just want to vegge out in the dorm in pajamas the entire time and read (probably another one of Wirt's books) or maybe play some video games, or watch movies. I don't really care, as long as I'm in pjs and in the dorm. Yeah I have homework to do, but I figure I can just get it all done Friday.

Log 79: Bullshit

I didn’t have much time to talk about it yesterday, but Mable totally set up an aquarium date for me and Wirt. It was really needed, and I need to thank her later. She even gave us the night to ourselves. But anyways right now I’m watching Wirt write a paper on pieces from the ICA, which he never went to see. However his friend Trevor did and sent him pictures of the exhibits. The one we both collectively chose is a piece called 'Bullshit', and right now, I'm watching my boyfriend bullshit a paper on bullshit. I love him so much, and this has been one of the best weekends we have ever spent together. Right up there with the fly hunt.

Log 78: Mable's hair

Oh my god, she stayed over Wendy's last night and came back with her hair cut really short! Mom and Dad are gonna kill me when they find out oh my god! Mable's the one who did it, but they'll say I should have stopped her, and I'm gonna get in trouble! They're pretty good and supportive of most things, but they're kind of harsh when it comes to gender rolls and they didn't want her to have short hair because "she'd look like a boy" and they're totally going to kill me! Now that I think about it, I also don't think I told them I'm in a relationship yet, so when they find that out they might be even more mad because I don't tell them? We're skyping them tonight, and I have till then to figure out how to cover up her lack of hair, and to figure out how to tell them about Wirt..

Log 77: Mable is literally killing me

So Thanksgiving has ended, and the day after Wirt's mother started breaking out the Christmas decorations, which is only encouraging Mable and her obsession with the holiday. She's monopolized the television, and we've all nonstop been watching the Hallmark channel. I've learned today, that only on the Hallmark channel, can a grown ass adult have a mental breakdown when they find out Santa isn't real. AND I think now I've watched enough of them to realize that they're all basically the same. Even the actors are the same! They're just casted in different rolls! They're all "ideal" girls with long wavy hair, thin, and "ideal" men who are tall and strong with broad chests! I've been loosing my mind all day yesterday, and Wirt keeps teasing me about it. Now it's not like I don't like Christmas or Christmas movies, I just can't stand the cheesy Hallmark horror that is their Christmas movies.

Log 76: Destress

An argument broke out about politics and being gay so Wirt and I are relaxing in his room, when his two year old cousin walks in with a fist full of cat food and dumped it on his rug. The kid looked up, said, "Sorry." and left. It was probably the most awkward thing ever, because we were kind of making out at the time and Wirt was like, "Oh shit!" thinking it was an adult or something and then deadpanned when he saw the small pile of cat food on the floor. I can't believe that just happened, oh my god! He gets frazzled so easily and it's the cutest thing ever.

Log 75: Extended Family

So today I get to meet part of Wirt's extended family and I'd like to say I'm nervous, but really, I'm not. Ok so I was yesterday, but from what Wirt said about them, they're all pretty supportive of him being gay. So it's not like they'll be freaked out or anything like that. The only one I'd even have to worry about is one of his uncles, but since Wirt came out, he pretty much removed himself from the family. On a lighter note, got to help stuff a turkey, which I've never done before. Mable couldn't help but crack a joke about fisting wile I was elbow deep in turkey. How nobody else heard her, I'll never know. Just let it be known; I'm not mad, just disappointed.

Log 74: I love my boyfriend

I was having an existential crisis of sorts earlier. I was crying about the possibility of having to go back home if we go into another recession. That I wouldn't be able to continue getting a college education, living in mass, and horrifying enough, having to leave Wirt behind. He sat with me the whole time, listened to me, and reassured me that he wasn't going anywhere. He told me he'd let me stay with him here, or he'd come with me if I had to go back. I told him I couldn't ask him to do that. And he responded with, and I quote, "Good thing your not asking. I want too." I really can't describe just how important this boy is to me, and how much I love him. I really do. I don't know what I'd do if I lost him. He's so kind and sweet, and adorable, and funny; and he makes me feel all those things too. He gives me everything others in the past have stripped away; my self confidence, my optimism, my drive. I know it's really early on in the relationship. I know it seems really soon. But after my last relationship, after my last five relationships, this is the first, and probably the only one, to make me feel like I'm an actual person. Like I'm as important as I think they are.

Log 73: Campus Tour

Mable has been insisting all morning that I take her out on a tour of the campus, and finally pushed me out of the house to do so. Wirt needs to write a paper, so it's probably for the best. And Mable's been asking for all the details of our relationship, addressing everything and being her overprotective self. It's gonna be a long walk..

Log 72: How did I not know

Wirt’s never played cards against humanity before, so we got a group together and played. It was me, Wirt, Mable, Wendy, her boyfriend, Trevor, his girlfriend, and then freaking Jason Funderburker showed up out of god damn nowhere to see if Wirt wanted to work on their illustration project, and invited himself in. We all explain the rules to Wirt, then Wendy started. How in the fresh freaking hell, did I not know my boyfriend was going to be a cards against humanity protege?! Oh my god, his cards had us in stitches! I can’t even believe that he even thought of half the combinations he put out there! He damn near swept the whole game! By the end Wirt had, like, 40 cards, compared to everyone else’s 2-5! This was his first time playing the game too! I am so unbelievably proud to call him my boyfriend, he’s always so full of surprises and I just- I don’t want to loose him! He is so important.

Log 71: Everything worked out

It all worked out so much better than I thought it would! Mable freaking loves the guy, and I honestly can't see why she wouldn't! I mean, I do. Anyways, it certainly helped my stress for everything when I talked to Wirt about it, and I'm so glad I did. He is the most understanding, sweetest guy I've ever dated. I'm just so happy right now!

[collegedipper]

Log 70: She's almost here

We got to the airport a little early, like 40 minutes early. I guess my nerves got the best of me and I was scarred of being late? Wirt doesn't mind. The airport is fairly empty where we are, it's super creepy. But I'm glad he's here. It's not that I'm scarred of my sister or anything, I'm just.. I don't know. I can't wait for this to be over.

[collegedipper]

Log 69: She's on her way

I'm so nervous, but mostly excited? I can't wait to get this introduction done and over with so I can just show myself it won't be as bad as I'm thinking it will be. It's not going to be bad, it's stupid that I'm worried about this! Ahgg, I'm being so dumb! And I'm making Wirt worry! I need to get my shit together, I don't want to make him worry. Like, in four or so hours I'm gonna think back on this and laugh because I'm getting all worked up over absolutely nothing.

Log 68: Charcoal and Mable update

Wirt just got back from Illustration Intensive. He was working with charcoal today, and forgot to wash his hands before he left, and he's got charcoal all over the palms of his hands and fingers. Of corse both of us hadn't realized till the doofus pulls me into a kiss and now there's charcoal smeared all down the back of my neck. At least he's finding the situation amusing, the little brat. Also Mable is coming tomorrow! So that's exciting! I'm still a little nervous about them meeting in person, but not as much as before. Aside from when he's being a brat, my boyfriend is a delight! Of corse Mable will still like him when they meet in person.

Log 67: A half hour

Wirt gets out of class in a half hour.

[collegedipper]

Log 67: Class was canceled

So this is one of Wirt's busiest days of the week, and go figure this is the day all my classes get canceled. He had to get up at 7:30am leaving me alone in bed. My first class starts at 9:45am, or was supposed to, until I checked my email and there were two notifications from both professors saying class was canceled. I tried seeing what Wendy was up to, but she's got classes too! From 11-3 I explored more parts of the city, but it really wasn't as exciting as I was hoping for. Exploring isn't as fun on your own. And plus it was pretty cloudy so everything was just gloomy and cold. I went to Dunkin Donuts and tried an ice tea. Don't know why I chose iced, I was already cold before. Also forgot to specify I wanted sugar in it. It was horrible. I've still got so much time on my hands and I still don't know what to do. I would text Wirt, but he's in classes and I don't want to get him in trouble, and Mable won't respond. Never once in my life have I been this board. That's a lie. But honestly, what did I do to occupy my time before I started dating Wirt? It's only been a week for crying out loud! Nothing is as interesting anymore! At least not without him! I just cleaned the entire room, cleaned out our fridge (I think a juice box blew up in there?) did my laundry, made a trip to the mail room to pick up a shirt I ordered, alphabetized Wirt's boxes of tea, my video games, my books, Wirt's books, our movies! I don't know what else to do! Wirt doesn't get back from classes till 8!
