Shit. Kim and I sort of had a fallout Tuesday night. Shit. I had been talking with her all day. She paid me back my two dollars when I was up on control panel. I got off of work at 6:30 and she would be getting cut back at around seven. I went and took a shower in the men's bathroom and changed into my jean cutoffs and black tank top. I was sort of showing off my tan to everybody. I went back over and talked to Sharlene and Brad in the back. It's funny how much Sharlene and I talk now after we never did before. She kept playfully punching me in the stomach while we were back there. I went out to the unloading brake to see Agnes. I had said earlier that I felt that I would be able to both party and study in college better than stupid people, or something like that. She got 'mad' at me and we argued for a long time whether I was acting stuck up or not. I apologized for saying that and she said, 'That's better.' She then asked me what I was still doing there and I told her I was waiting to take Kim home and she gives me one of those long drawn out 'Ohhhhhh's.
Brad then sent her to help Kim in the queue house so I went with her. She tried to jump over the outer wall to get in, pregnant and all, so I helped her over. Then I talked to Kim for a few minutes while they finished. As we were walking up front Bryan called for a party of one or two. I told him I had one and he tried to force me in but I didn't want to since I had just showered. Kim waited for a second and then hopped in still wearing her work clothes. She scooted way up and told me to get in so I did. I sarcastically reminded her of the rule about no splashing as I drenched her. We're not supposed to wear our uniforms on the rides and Brad didn't even know that she had stopped sweeping the queue house. I asked her what she was going to tell him when she came back all soaking wet.
Then we saw Rebecca at Spillway opening the ice chest. Andre had come in earlier and they poured cupfuls of cold water on him, but as we went by she dumped the entire thing right down Kim's back into my lap! I tried to splash her and think that I got her some. It felt so good to have my balls frozen off! We laughed and it was fun. Sharlene was unloading and she just sort of smirked and nodded her head. When I got up I had pieces of ice falling out of my shorts. We went into the back and Brad asked her why she was all wet. I told him that I gave her a great big hug when I got off the ride. He smiled and told Kim that she was off (he was jealous!). I guess Kim thought that Brad knew that she went on the ride so she told him about Rebecca dumping the ice on us. He then got a little mad and told her about wearing her uniform on the ride. I don't know why she said anything.
Well, we went out soaking wet to my car. As we were going I asked her if we should stop for something since I had two dollars to spend. She thought that was funny and said that she didn't really want anything but we could stop. I decided not to because I was going to ask her to a movie or something when we got to her house. I did and then it blew up. She told me that she didn't think so right now, that this age difference thing was sort of bothering her. I thanked her for ditching me again and she asked me if I wanted to try again and maybe get strike three. I told her maybe later and we said bye. I should have said something there, and I was mad that I didn't about half way home.
A few minutes after I got home I called her and thankfully her line wasn't busy. Her mom answered. She asked who was calling and then I heard her call Kim pretty loud and then go, 'It's Dan,' somewhat sarcastically to Kim. I laughed to myself. When she answered we said hi and I told her that I was thinking about what she said. She said that she just has a lot on her mind lately, just breaking up with her other boyfriend, and that she was moving in September, and all, and that I had seemed a bit eager. I told her that if I was, then she was the first time that I had ever been really eager about anything, that both Nicole and Jennifer just sort of fell into my lap. I know that Kim is sort of thinking that I might be trying for a '24 year old' just so I can brag about it and for sex. We haven't really talked about sex and what we've both done. Sharlene and I did on the second day we talked. Anyway, I then figured I'd tone it down so I asked her what was wrong with a friend asking a friend to go do something fun together like go to the movie or Busch Gardens. I told her I would have even sat five seats down from her. She laughed a lot and said that know she wanted to go just to see that. She told me that if I turned she would go, 'Dan, you're looking at me again!' and we laughed.
Teresa had called before I did and was coming to get Kim tonight. Kim's staying with her until Thursday morning when she leaves for St. Louis. I told Kim that I'm going to the University of Florida in four weeks and I knew that we wouldn't be able to do anything too committal. I asked her what she had planned for next week, and she said that she hadn't made any yet. I then asked if we can possibly do something next week without me getting strike three. She said yes and we'll look at our schedules when they come out. The schedule came out yesterday and it turns out that the only time we both have off, besides nights, is Thursday morning until 4:15. We had argued today whether or not I had given her my phone number and she admitted that I had. She then rattled it off out of her head without looking in her little book. I wondered why she knew it. But I told her to call me and she said that she will. I asked when so I can try to be around, but she said that was part of the torture. She also said that she wants me to take her address before I leave so I can write to her from up at college. She said she'll give it to me over fries one night. She even started the letter for me:
Dear Kim,
You bitch! How could you do this to me...
I admitted that the reason I called was that my mind would play with what she said and really screw me up by the next time I get to see her. I also overexaggerate things when I think about them for too long. She told me that she does the same thing and is very glad that I called. So am I. I can imagine what would of happened if this was back before I opened up, we would have been destroyed when I pulled out of her driveway, I would have known what to say but I would not have been able to. Now I wait a bit and hope.
I talked to MichŠle a lot yesterday and found out why I like her so much. She's half French on her mother's side. That's where her parents are right now. Her parents have let her stay here the past two summers to work at Busch Gardens but it turns out that her grandmother has been saying that her granddaughter doesn't love her anymore so she will be leaving on July 27 to stay a month in France. I told her I was jealous. She told me that I really shouldn't be because it's boring. I asked her to take me with her and she said OK, as long as I would fit in her suitcase. She has been all throughout Germany and said it's a wonderful place to live. I had told her about wanting to live in either Germany or England as well as to study abroad. She said that she wanted to study abroad, too. She has also been to Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, and the Italian Alps. I asked her where she is planning on going to college. She said that she would like to go to the Universities of Michigan or Pennsylvania, but she will probably go to Florida. All right! I'll be waiting.
I also got a thank you card from Jana from her Graduation party.
Dan -

I had planned on calling her anyway this week, probably on Friday to tell her and ask her about the AP exams, and I'll tell her about what's been going on with Kim. I also want to ask her about what dorm she got and how she likes Beaty Towers. I also received my Florida Academic Scholarship last night. I was awarded $2,225. I'm happy about that because the assholes in the government told us just recently, that after all of our hard work, they were going to drop the amount from $2,500 to $2,000. So I'm glad that I got more than they said. I'm actually having a pretty good week, but I'm starting to think about Kim. Uh oh.
