Ah, where to start.….

Fri­day

Well, we went to the Home­com­ing game, which we actu­ally won (a sur­prise), and dur­ing the game Jake got all pissy at Megan and I, for some fairly unknown rea­son. I mean, we knew that he was upset about the dance and every­thing, but this came out of nowhere…

Any­way, after the game, we went to Natalie's "sur­prise" party at the new YAC and we weren't there for too long before Megan started get­ting *really* upset. I told her that I would take her home and she refused. She had the SATs in the morn­ing, and she just seemed tired.

So I went to Natalie and asked her if it would be okay to take Megan home. She said it was fine. I went back to Megan and told her that I was tak­ing her home. She finally agreed, said good­bye to every­one and we went out the car…

Once in the car, I tried to talk to her so I could find out what was both­er­ing her, but I was get­ting *very* frus­trated, and I was start­ing to yell. Then, Megan said "FUCK YOU!" and got out of the car after I had already started to go. I put the car in neu­tral and ran after her…

Out­side, after a bit more yelling, we calmed down (don't we always) and con­cluded that she was just feel­ing over­whelmed.… by every­thing. Then we talked a lit­tle bit about her par­ents and I dropped her off at home…

I got back to the party, and about 10 min­utes after I got there, Jake said he wanted to go. We decided to go to my house and watch a movie. We ended up watch­ing Baseket­Ball and then Jake went home at about 2am or so.

Sat­ur­day

Megan called me around 12pm and we talked for a few min­utes. She seemed *a lot* bet­ter after she had got­ten some rest…

I picked her up at 6:30 for the dance, and she looked absolutely beau­ti­ful! After her par­ents took the cus­tom­ary pic­tures, we went to eat at the China Palace, where the food was pretty damn good!

We got to the dance a few min­utes early, and came in the music hall­way entrance, where we were, um, greeted by one of Fort Collins' finest, who told me that I couldn't come in this way. Then I pre­sented him with my staff name badge, and after he *thor­oughly* inspected it, we were on our way into the dance…

I don't exactly know how, but Megan and I were some­how vol­un­teered to be actual chap­er­ones for the dance, which was actu­ally pos­si­ble, because we're tech­ni­cally *both* staff. It wasn't that bad… the only thing we really had to do was sit by the mini-theatre doors for a half-hour — which was kinda cool because you get to hear many *inter­est­ing* con­ver­sa­tions from peo­ple in the bathroom…

The dance itself was very good fun. The music, of course, sucked. But the rest of it was good, and we both had a really good time…

After the dance, we came back to my house and hung out for a while. It was a great evening.

Sun­day

At about 1pm, I called Megan and she came over to my house. And after some gassing up of the car, we were off to Denver…

We spent the major­ity of the day walk­ing on and around the 16^TH Street Mall. It was a very nice day for walk­ing, and we had fun window-shopping…

We went and had din­ner at Cinzzetti's Ital­ian Mar­ket Restau­rant, and it was great. Then we came back home and watched a movie. Megan left the house at around 11pm or so…

It was truly a week­end from Heaven, and some­thing we def­i­nitely needed, since the next two weeks are going to be *a bit* hectic.

Today

It was a Mon­day, which doesn't really say much. The great thing about Mon­days is that they go *incred­i­bly* fast…

I saw Megan at lunch and she told me that she may have to spend Christ­mas and/or New Year's in Chicago with her fam­ily.… Damn! It sucks, but there isn't any­thing I can really do about except to deal. I'll get over it. Don't worry…

Our first *offi­cial* run-through was tonight. It didn't go too bad. Mandy is really beat­ing her­self up about her per­for­mance, though. I hope she starts feel­ing better.…

Any­who, that about does it for now. Later.
