Fall break.

The highlight of my weekend.. as lame and cheesy as this is going to sound.. was lying on my boyfriend's chest, against his fuzzy sweater, with my arms wrapped around his waist.. watching the Vice Presidential debate.. him adamantly watching, me drifting in and out of mini naps and making a comment here and there. He was running his hand through my hair like he always does in the most comforting way, it soothes me. And I just thought, this is how I want to spend every night.. well of course I want to be with him all the time.. but like, just lying on the couch cuddled against him.. there are not too many things that make me more happy and content than I am in those moments.

Just thought I would share. I had a pretty good weekend overall.

Thursday afternoon-Saturday afternoon was spent in Columbus, Ohio with boyfriend and his family, which, I'm finally past that whole, awkwardness of hanging around the house and stuff. I even successfully went to the bank and lunch with them on Friday and talked and stuff. And didn't feel really awkward.. I considered it a success. Thursday night we were going to watch Eagle Eye.. but that didn't work, so we rented 21 and ended up watching Iron Man and then Conan. Friday was the lunch thing.. and then I was kinda in a coma all day while he was at work.. I slept from 12:30 until 2 and then 4ish until 6:30.. then I watched TLC until I couldn't tolerate it anymore. Took a break.. did stuff.. was mostly lots of bored until he got home after 10. We did watch 21, it was pretty good. Saturday I had a hard time leaving on time, which I'm not really sorry about. We did lunch with his parents and just were kinda lazy and such until I left around 2ish. I only paid 3.18 for gas, that was pretty spiffy..

Saturday afternoon-Sunday afternoon was kinda like a college tour-ish thing.. well, I visited my cousin at Northern Kentucky University and my best friend Faith at the University of Louisville. I didn't stay very long at NKU because I sat about an hour and a half in traffic outside of Washington Courthouse, Ohio. I moved 4 miles in an hour and a half.. it was quite bull. I saw my cousin's dorm room, ate dinner, and went to the Fine Arts Center and looked at some of her art.. after that I had to drive to Louisville, my last destination for fall break, not counting Bowling Green, which, I'm not even there yet. Anyway, I saw her dorm room and her less than interesting roommate. Then we went over to visit the Spaghetti Factory, which was yummy, I had never been there before, and it was surprisingly inexpensive. Before the tip I ate delicious, I'd go as far as to say orgasmic spinach tortellini alfredo yummyness, bread, salad, and desert, plus a 4 dollar Italian soda, for just 14 bucks. Which, quite awesome. And so so soooooooo yummy. Afterward, it was off to Walmart to find bed things.. then back to the dorm, where her roomie was asleep already.. it was like 11:30.. so we called up her boyfriend and spent the night there. We watched 'Candy,' it had Heath Ledger in it and was a love story that involved heroin. Kinda good.. kinda gross.. kinda saddening. After the movie ended we dyed hair and had good times.. alcohol and hair dying.. equals spinny.. but.. things still worked out okay. My hair is a lovely chocolate-ish brown. Pictures soon. Eventually there was bed, I crashed on the couch.. I sleep with my boyfriend's hoodie, kinda treat it like a blanket.. I like the smell.. because it smells like him and it comforts me, I'm a little weird. Once we got out of bed and dressed, we went to lunch and then to the St. James Art fair. It was very much like every other year, the Graeter's was good though.

Now I'm home and well, as soon as my laundry is done I'm going to go pick up my roomie and head back to the BG.

It has been a rather good fall break. Back to the grind in less than 24.
