Becky the NOT! IMAGINARY!!! Girlfriend

Posted in General at 11:26 pm

Wednesday (last week): Work. Class. Sat with Dan Ahn after lunch since I couldn’t find Becky…finally saw her, but I found out about 10 minutes later that apparently she wasn’t looking for me–quote from her: “I was sort of hoping not to see you…but now I’m glad you’re here”. So I sat with her and asked what was up, “I was awakened by a phone call at 6:00 in the morning”, she says, “by my mother calling to say that she was dragging my father across the state this weekend to meet you.”
“oh that’s nice.” I say. Anyway, I spent the next 30 minutes calming her down, I think she was a lot more freaked out about it than I was. Later in the day we went sailing on a Hobie 16, it was great wind, and I managed to not capsize…although we did come close a few times. Becky seemed to enjoy it.

Thursday(last week): Lunch with Becky. Apparently she hated the day, but I thought it was OK.

Friday: Work. Class. Had lunch with my friend Heather (hadn’t seen her since February or so). Coffee with Becky after work, and then she had a meeting which the other half didn’t show up for, so she got a ride to Golden Gardens with me. Yeah, so everyone ought to know we’re a couple by now. I brought a steak to Golden Gardens, it was yummy. I couldn’t finish it so I gave the rest to Dan Dameron.

Saturday: Work. And I was having dinner with Becky and her family at 6:30 in the U-Village. You know, I thought I was past that stage in my life where I could be nervous nearly to the point of nausea…not so, I guess. But it seemed to go well, no huge blunders. Becky did have to remind me to breathe at first, though. After dinner I gave everyone a tour of the Waterfront Activities Center, and then I went to see Madagascar with Becky, her mother, and her sister.

Sunday: Church with Becky and family. It was good. Then, lunch at Cheesecake Factory with Becky and family and family friends. I had a GIANT burger, it was great. After lunch I went home to Bainbridge.

Monday: Did some work around the house, trimming weeds in the ditch, looking for tree roots that were cracking the driveway, etc. I sort of felt a cold coming on mid-day, but ignored it and went bowling with my brother in the evening. I was feeling very bad by the time I got home, but I watched Ocean’s Twelve with my Mom and Brother.

Tuesday: Slept horribly the night before, and I was miserable from a full-blow cold. Got up early to take the ferry back to Seattle, went to class, had lunch with Becky at Orange King. Apparently her burger wasn’t very good…sad. My “chicken teriyaki” was more like stir fry–not yummy. I think I’ll stick with their burgers.

Wednesday: Still sick. Went to work in the morning, then class. Found Becky after class, and she dragged me all over campus doing errands. Then we had lunch at University Teriyaki, but I was too sick to eat all my food. After lunch we studied in Odegaard for a while, then Becky went to class and I went home and took a nap. After I woke up from my very nice nap Becky decided that she was coming over to watch a movie and have dinner, despite my insistences that I was deathly ill. So, she came over with Ever After (I’m going to hear about this from the all the guys…I just know it…but I just have one question for you guys, what movie did you watch with your girlfriend? What’s that? You don’t have a girlfriend? huh…) and we ordered pizza and watched the movie. It was cute. And now I need to study for my final tomorrow.
