2:16 A.M. - Just back from a late night Steak n' Shake run.
Brittany and Mom just fell asleep on Britt's bed. The lights are still on and I've got music that's definitely not quiet. Now playing: How to Save a Life by none other than the Fray. Don't worry- I asked them if they wanted it off...I think they like it. That or they are just really nice.
I feel more normal than I have in weeks. Thank goodness. I thought I was losing my zest for life for awhile there. The last few weeks I've really felt lost. I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm usually pretty happy, but I think I've jsut got a lot on my mind.
I've been wanting to start blogging for awhile here. I really miss writing. I miss putting my thoughts down on paper.. or whatever. You get the picture.
I worked at Outback tonight and I'm really starting to like it. At first I felt like the people weren't very nice, but now that I've given it awhile I'm definitely getting used to it. I think it helps when you're there a lot. One of the hostesses and I might actually go do something next week- I'm so excited. She's such a sweetheart, and heaven knows I could use a friend in Texas!
On my way home from work I had missed a call from Thomas. He was calling in response to my facebook message about the wedding. I called him and got voice mail, but decided to leave him a voice mail so he'd be "it." Phone tag- I play with everyone.. really! Note to self- it's my turn to call Bittaney. After hanging up after my first message I held down the #7 key on my phone. The phone rang and rang, but no Melissa. We've been playing phone tag for over a week so I was totally hoping to catch her! I started to leave my message, "Meli, hey- it's Bry. I was really hoping to get you on the phone. I miss you. Anyways.." My phone began to beep... I looked down and hurried the rest of my message. "You're calling me- yes!" I switched calls, and I was so excited to actually have the real person... Melissa Dawn herself. I miss her so much. I parked my car in front of the house and ran in to ditch my apron and my purse. It was time for a long convo- and a long walk. I could feel myself getting excited.... oh how I missed my best friend. It felt so good to catch up. It's sad how much we've been missing. It's June and I haven't seen her since November. I do get to see her at the end of July though- YES!
We ended up getting cut-off in mid conversation, but it didn't matter that we never finished talking. We'll never be finished. I'm so going to jump on her when I see her next! Haha. We'll do the wal-mart parking lot hug that we imitated at the end of every day of senior year!
After that phone call, I came in and talked to mom and dad for awhile. Both were a little down. Mom was hungry so we decided to get something to eat. Britt woke up just in time to walk out the door with us. T called as I was walking out the door. Mom, Britt, and I had a convo with him as we drove to our destination. He sounded good...working midnights though. I hope he's doing okay. Anyways....Steak and Shake it was.. after I had shut down the old Taco Bell idea. I don't know, I just wasn't feelin' it?! We had a great waiter- really funny. His name was George.
It was odd though because he thought we were regulars or something- hmm?! I don't know that I've been there more than once.. and that was a looong time ago. haha. Oh well.. familiar faces. :) Britter got the ChiliMac and mom I ordered the turkey club because I know that's what mom wanted. She's an easy read. I love her. Chocolate shakes for those two... and then I couldn't decide. Half and half maybe? I voiced this aloud. George all of a sudden got this sneeze .. ahha totally fake- aka. he muttered chocolate vanilla in disguise. I laughed. Perfect. That sounded perfect. So that was our S&S meal. We left a nice tip for George, and a note to make him feel awesome. We even waited out in the car to see his reaction, but I don't know what we were expecting him to do. It's not like he was going to bounce up and down over a tip that was over 20%. Haha. A coy smile is all I would've wanted. That was too hard to see from the parking lot.
I drove us home with the windows down. We came in and chatted for awhile. It felt so good to have actually done something fun. The last week has been kind of hard. I made mom listen to the Rascal Flatts song that I love and then Britt and Mom started drifting. So, here I am. Okay, I'm getting tired..but more than that, I'd like to be awake for the day tomorrow. I'm looking forward to spending time with my family. I've missed dad this week- a lot. Brandon too- but he's at the lake with Christian this weekend.
One more listen to the Fray.
- Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend.
This song reminds me of someone...
I think I loved him.
No.
Yes.
Maybe. That sounds just like him.
Goodnight :)
