Deeeez Nuts in DC!

Well, my trip is coming up in less than 24 hours. My plans right now are no where near imaginable to what my original plans were supposed to be. I was trying to convince someone who's fears are too great to meet me, who would rather sabotage her own happiness instead of taking a chance. Well, I really don't have time for that frame of mind. Maybe one day she'll get it. Maybe one day she'll look back on all those emails and realize what she missed out on. Maybe she won't. But one day is too late at this point for anything to happen b/w us. It's not to say I'm not upset about the situation, I invested a lot of my time into this expecting a lot more, wanting more to happen. But I digress. Anyways, last night, my friends caught wind of my situation, knew I was a little shook up about how everything went down and 4 of them decided to book flights and come along for the ride. Great guys, right? Nick, in fact, said "I can't let Amaya be the only one who's going to act illogical. I'm fucking going, I'm booking that shit right now". Then my other buddies, Zilz and Holcomb jumped on board last night at around midnight. Jarmon jumped on this morning. Fucking madmen, but all amazing guys. We got a place at the Washington Suites in the Foggy Bottom area. Each suite is 600 sqft so we should be pretty comfortable with 2. We might have to get another b/c I think more people might come. The tickets are still only going for about $160 to D.C. I'm really amazed at how my friends rallied. Everyone is ready to hit a new city, we're all excited.

But thank you, Amaya for getting me to land in Dulles. It's only a short 45 min ride to DC! Damn, the limo is costing me about as much as the ticket roundtrip. I know she doesn't have to worry about money and all that, I guess that's why it's a lot easier for her to turn the other cheek on this situation. I actually had to work for this money to get out there, some people just don't have simple manners. It's usually the ones that have too much to begin with that are oblivious to others feelings. Oh well, this has worked out for the best anyways.

Isn't it ironic how all of her friends went through all the trouble of planning a trip for her and she wasn't able to make it b/c of her own fears and now, I wasn't even going to see her again b/c of her own fears (or whatever excuse it was this time) but I was still going to get out there and all my friends jumped on board at the last second? I don't know, the two situations are complete opposite of one another. It's really bizarre.

On top of it, a lot of people have been trying to hook me up with friends out there. I think we're going to meet up with Emily and her group on Sat, Chew has friends coming in from Chicago this weekend as well, and Stacey's trying to get me to hook up with Courtney and her friends. It makes me feel really good that so many people tried to help me out when I needed it most. That really says something about the quality of people in my life. I'm very fortunate to have them.

Well, I'm looking towards crazy times ahead. We're bringing the Chi-town spice to the D.C. life!

Stories to follow upon my return.
