Living without
This weekend was great. Ryan came to visit Thursday night and we went to Poor Billy's for dinner after he got to town. He had brought me beautiful flowers from Richmond when he came :-) I totally wasn't expecting that. Afterwards, we danced at Attitudes with the C(h)rises and Annie. Friday and Saturday were good days. Ryan and I did our own thing those days, but then met up with everyone Saturday night. Oh, I've missed him so much. It was so great to see him.
In the management class I took this past summer session, we were learning about these various acts like the one that pregnant women fall under. It says that they're guaranteed their job when they come back to work. My professor said he was talking to the manager of a JCPenny's once, shortly after the act came into effect. He was saying how they had to learn to function without the woman in a certain position while she was out having her baby. In a way, I kind of felt that way about Ryan. I only say that because he hasn't been around so I've had to adjust to life on my own this summer. Not that I'm going to leave him or anything, because I'm not, but it just reminded me of what we had talked about in management. I love it that he came to visit, but I now know that I'm not dependent on him being here. I guess that's a good thing. While he's always on my mind, I'm still able to be an individual and function without him. I guess that's what I'm trying to say. I mean, before the summer started and I thought about him going home for the next 3 months, I never thought I'd be able to get through it. Luckily I was/am able to, but yet I'm able to fall back into the way things were when he comes back.
Anyways, as for things happening this week, I'm not too sure. Session 2 started today. I have work tomorrow and Thursday. Wednesday is the fourth. I'm not sure what that in itself will bring. I'll definitely be checking out the fireworks. Cook out? Hopefully. I'm supposed to be checking out the townhouse I'll be living in as well. I hope it's a decently sized room. I'm really counting on taking my bed from home. As for any of you folks who want to hang out this week, I need entertainment. I'll try and update this more often. I hope everyone had a great Monday today. |
