LOSING MY RELIGION.

@elliotjharper

Elliot Jay Harper. Every whisper Of every waking hour I'm choosing my confessions Trying to keep an eye on you Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool, fool Oh no, I've said too much I've said enough Consider this Consider this, the hint of the century Consider this, the slip That brought me to my knees, failed What if all these fantasies come Flailing around Now I've said too much I thought that I heard you laughing I thought that I heard you sing I think I thought I saw you try R.E.M., Losing My Religion

[text] We don't see all that much of each other now, none at all outside of work. [text] Nope, hadn't heard. That's great for her. We should definitely do something for her, sure. When did you have in mind?

[TEXT]: Still, we’re friends.

[TEXT]: Maybe sometime next week?

[text] Why do I feel like this is like the end of our friendship? That's not gonna happen, right?

[TEXT]: It's not! Not at all. It feels like it cause we won't be seeing much of each other, but it's not. Also, Drew is a part-time owner now. I don't know if you heard the news, but I want to close down the shop one day and celebrate. Surprise her, maybe? [TEXT]: sorry, totally changed the subject.

[text] A little more than a two weeks notice, but yeah. It's not like I'll disappear though. I'll still come to eat. And I'll waitress when you absolutely need me.

[TEXT]: Thank you for all you've done, Ams. I can put your notice in whenever. And seriously, swing by any time.

[text] I love working there, you know that. But I've had a thing that I've been working toward that I haven't talked about at all that'll make working for you a thing I probably can't do anymore in the new year.

[TEXT]: I get that. Wanna put in your two weeks? The kids will miss you. Heck, I'll miss you too.

[text] I kind of need and employee employer conversation.

[TEXT]: What's going on? Is there anything I can do to make working here better for you?

[text] Do you have time to talk after Christmas?

[TEXT]: of course. What’s up?

[TM] Trust me, I want to. Good on you. I have a few more things to fill out and then I should be done too.

[TEXT]: Alrighty.

You’re always very sappy. What’s your specific sappiness from?

elliotjharper

Fostering paperwork.

Do you know how long it’ll take after the paperwork’s turned in? She still didn’t have to do it. Those couldn’t have been cheap.

elliotjharper

Four to six months. Ten bucks says she got them for less than you think. I’m pretty sure this woman knows how to bargain hunt in her sleep.

[TM] Left ring finger huh? I can do that. I love you.

[TEXT]: unless, you don’t want to? If you don’t want to, then don’t. Hey, I love you too. I just finished my part of the paperwork, by the way.

[TM] I love how I have two rings now and I don't know which fingers to wear which on.

[TEXT]: One on your... left ring finger, and the other on your index? I don’t know, I’m not much help.

That’s amazing, El. I’m so excited for you. And tell your mother thank you for the earrings. She didn’t have to do that.

elliotjharper

I’m excited tioo. Psh, there was no use in stopping her. She adores you, Beth, and Lia. She keeps calling Lia her “daughter”, which I think is the sweetest thing. Not like we’re getting married anytime soon, but... Mama has high dreams. I know she also loves you a lot. Like, a lot.
