Of Gaslight and Disappointment.

Well... Well...
Well, on a good note, I had a great weekend hanging out with Leslie (my only remaining friend from highschool, and one of my very few remaining friends back in Virginia beach), Mike (her boyfriend, who's a really cool guy, and who I like more and more every time I hang out with him), and Carrie-Ann (a girl I used to know from the long-ago Werewolf game I cameoed in). We had a lot of fun, watched Silent Hill 3 (and saw the ending which I think -- in all my limited knowledge -- best fits), had fondue, got the best service at a restaurant I've ever had, and had a fun time dancing and talking and enjoying each others' company. For that, the weekend was really good.
No offense to Leslie, Mike, or Carrie, though, but the entirety of the weekend was really a big disappointment. Put simply, this trip started out as and continued all the way up until Friday to be an attempt to see me old gradeschool buddy Sara. She lives down in North Carolina, and I'm here in DC, and so it's not the easiest thing in the world to visit with each other. maybe I should have figured, as Sara's been poor at best with emails, but... I was also intending to see some of my other old friends, Christin and Judith and maybe the Crofts... Christin was out of town this week, and Judith gave me the run-around for the last twelve days, this weekend included, and the Crofts were (as usual) out and about.
I didn't see any of them. Not even for a couple minutes. Christin let me know ahead of time, which was cool -- we made plans to get together some other time, and that was OK. The Crofts weren't a main priority, just a visit which would have been nice. Judith, as I said, kept giving me the "oh, yeah, I'll give you a call," line. Even Sara, who I'd planned this with, and who was really the main reason I was down here, didn't even try to see me. According to Judith, she was up for a few hours Friday night, and then left Saturday morning because her little girl was sick, without even giving me a call to say Hi or let me know what was up.
I'm dissapointed because of Judith - I told Sara I didn't think she'd want to see me, and this kind of settles that -- and I'm angry with Sara, and I'm just all-around sad and tired.
We saw The Village the other night. I loved the movie. I thought I might ask Suzannah to go see it with me again; I think she might really like it, and I'd like to spend more time with her 9though I've always thought movies were a horrible choice for a date). But this afternoon I called her, and she couldn't talk long because her dad was on-call for the Hospital, and so they had to keep the line open... and I didn't ask her then, and I just feel discouraged and down about the whole thing...
And now my internet is being spotty on me because the wireless router doesn't *quite* reach my room, and the bad weather is ruining what little reception I usually have...
I'm just going to bed.
Well... Well...
