Dear gods.

Can this finally be friday? I don't exaggerate when I say that this has been the longest week of my life. So much has happened that monday seems like it was 5 or 6 years ago. I'm completely exhausted, and Boyfriend is eagerly attempting to book all of my time for the whole weekend. Which of course he isn't going to get, because I am just such a heartless person.

Sorry, that was sarcasm. I'm just feeling bad for always having to say "no".

So tonight he and I are going on a date. I already had to severely limit this date, as today he asked if he could stay over, and I said no, and he asked if I wanted to stay out all night and I said no, and no and no and no. I think the other words are slipping from my vocabulary. But we are going to dinner and a movie. Hopefully this will stop him from constantly nagging me for more, but somehow I feel this is only an appetizer as far as he is concerned.

After that I am going home and going to bed *alone* so that I can get some sleep, because Forest and his dad are coming out first thing in the morning to replace my hot water heater.

O, I forgot to mention that. My house once again has no hot water, because the bottom of my hot water heater blew out. This filled my basement with about 6 inches of standing water. I was overjoyed, or course. Thankfully Forest was there, and knew what to do, and his dad does plumbing, so he offered to help.

Forest's dad is probably one of the nicest men I have ever met. I'm eternally grateful for his help, and he's only met me once! It amazes me that he will do all of this just because it's helping out his son, but I guess that's just the way Forest's family is.
