  Well, another week, another trip to Chicago! This time I went with Andy and Brenn, and I am glad to say that any and all feelings toward Brenn outside of friendship are about dead... Andy and I were at his house waiting for him to get ready and get out the door... thanks to him we ended up running an hour late... no biggie, but it would've been nice to know since we were meeting Art up there... luckily, Art checks his voicemail =P. Also, within three minutes of being in his house, Brenn starts talking about getting laid... hmm, interesting info... I don't tend to think people should proclaim such things so openly. I just suddenly became turned off to the idea of ever going out with him, and that's probably a good thing. Anyway, enough about Brenn... time to talk about Art!! We were all bored up in Chicago, so we drove a bit south down to Harlem Ave. and ate lunch.
Well, Brenn started feeling bad, so we decided to drag Art to Joliet so we could take Brenn home... that actually turned out cool because Art was able to briefly meet my parents and it turned out that he loved Joliet (what planet is he from? lol). Then on the way back, it hit me... wouldn't it be neat if him and I would hold hands? So, I took one hand off the wheel and hung it over my armrest wondering if maybe he would do it =P... then he did the same... a few minutes passed and I said something and he smacked me on the leg =P... then a few more minutes passed and I said something and he just kinda tugged on the sleeve of my coat, so I reached up a bit and tried to grab his hand and he took the hint, so we held hands all the way home... it was so sweet!
Now all I can think about is just snuggling with him watching a movie or something... well, he's gonna be here this Wednesday and spend the night and stay all day Thursday, so hopefully there will be some snuggling opportunity in there somewhere =P.
I'm kinda split on what to do... I really like Art, but he's leaving for home on Saturday... he lives in San Francisco don't forget. Then by the time he's back in Chicago, I'll be gone to DeKalb at NIU... of course my little fantasy is that I would have some grand opportunity to ask him if he'd stay with us for the summer, but he's probably rather be in Frisco anyway, and it's not like him and I know each other that well. Eh, I can dream can't I? He's such a sweetheart and quite a rare find... I really wish him and I had more of an opportunity to develop something... grrrrrr, there's always some sort of barrier! I did look at what transportation there was from DeKalb to Chicago... no Metra, no Amtrak... but there's Greyhound... $26 round trip... not too bad. I'm just afraid that something might happen between him and I, and I'm not sure if I want that or not.
I guess we'll just see what happens. Anyway, I just got home from work a half hour ago... had to close tonight, but on the plus side I had my first break ever... heh, anyway, I need some serious sleep. G'nite all.
