I can't get enough of my new friend James.
Friday, he was in the neighborhood taking a big important test (that I'm sure he rocked), so we had a nice long lunch w/ some of my old pals. He gave me a really interesting CD that he'd searched for for over a week.
Later that afternoon, he came by my work for a quick tour of the court and the jail. We almost got locked in the jail b/c it was late in the day, there was a shift change, and the night people didn't know who I was. Talk about embarrassing.
Friday night, James came over to get help painting a trophy for one of his students. (Awwwe.. so nice.) In between doing that, we went out to eat and played Quip It w/ Brian and my nephew. Good times.
Saturday I went out and saw Capote (sans James). It wasn't as great as I hoped it'd be. It moved too slowly for my taste. Too much Oscar hype. Not enough James. (kidding) ;-) Final grade=B.
Saturday night was Brad's Loft Party. James came. :-) The best was when we all did stupid human tricks. Here are pics. The camera battery died before we did the bigtime tricks though. Bummer.
Sunday I saw the best movie ever - Eight Below (also sans James, BUT, the movie was good nonetheless :-P ). I know what you're thinking film snobs, but REALLY, this movie was excellent. I bawled my head off and I don't even like dogs! Final grade=A.
Sunday night, James came over to pick up his finished trophy. He spun my nephews until they almost threw up and then taught me how to play a fun song on the piano. My nephews and I were sad to see him leave.
Some people (like his ex-girlfriend) think it's weird that James and I have been spending so much time together. Brian doesn't really think it's weird, since he's used to my best-friend-of-the-week routine. I don't know if James thinks it's weird. I suppose I'll have to ask.
All I know is that the guy cracks me up and that I can't get enough of him. My hope is that this BFOTW turns out to be more like a Nick or a Greg, rather than a Sadie Jo or a Wally.
I liked Wally, not often you find a guy who will live in a van just to be your friend.
ReplyDeleteUh huh....
ReplyDeleteWell....I saw eight below to this weekend. I had to choke back a few tears too, however....although the main actor was HOT HOT HOT! I thought he SUCKED as an actor! The dogs were the best actors in the movie!
Oh yeah, there was plenty about the movie that sucked - the acting, the stupid love-story subplot, the dumbass comic relief by that kid from the American Pie movies... But I still gave it an A because I sincerely enjoyed the movie, despite all of that. And you're right, it was totally because of the dogs. Those dogs could act!!!
ReplyDeleteman, i don't live in the same city as you for five years and all of a sudden you dump me for "jaaaameeees". i was going to move to vegas, but i guess i know now you don't need me. sniffle!
ReplyDeleteUm, try more like 7 years buddy! You're the one who dropped me for the first hot British accent that came along. I've somehow finally found the strength to move on.
ReplyDeletei can't help it if i like chicks who sound funny. if i was into chick who look funny, i'd have never left you. take me back baby!
ReplyDeleteAnd if I was into dudes who smelled funny, I'd have never let you go either. Thank goodness you found yourself a nice European girl who doesn't mind smelly guys that don't wear deoderant. (It's SO over!)
ReplyDeleteYes Greggy - except now that you've left me, you probably have to share it w/ James. :-)
