Cruella Goes On and On

Cruella, what are you doing these days?

I am currently in Columbia, SC, working on a temporary project. This is ok. It is hideously boring but better than nothing. That is all I can say about it. What I can talk more about is I did find a cute place to stay, with a lady, and I am paying $500/month, which seems a little high- but- she agreed to do indefinite month to month. And I was leaving Friday night, and had I waited, I would have had to pay for the extended stay at least one more day, so - - - I'm still saving over the extended stay, and this is much nicer. Especially compared to that one place - - -

What one place?

Well, I found this on Craigslist, which freaked Black Rook out- - - he was all like, you should get their picture, and ask them what they are like, and is she straight, is she gay, meet up somewhere - - I'm like, that's a little intrusive- I'm not going to DATE my roommate, I don't care what they look like, or whatever. And I have no interest in pursuing anyone/thing outside of Black Rook, not to mention any energy, so he has nothing to fear. Like I'm going to mess it up NOW. And for what?

Anyhow, I'm too tired in the evening to do anything but nap. I haven't even really cooked yet.

But, Cruella, speaking of messing things up, what about Robin?

What I really want to know is what is up with all the bird names. Black Rook, Robin- -

Sigh. I haven't really written about this, also because they might read it. But- I shan't remember it if I don't write about it.

I met Black Rook with the understanding -- based on several conversations with Robin over time, and let's not forget, HE broke up with ME. Also, when he met someone in Nashville, I was happy for him. He was very vague about whether or not he wanted to move down here, he didn't want to live with me, and he never really renewed any kind of we're dating or committment thing so. I thought he would have been happy for me.

And he was not.

Then he came down for an interview. And I don't know if I would have felt comfortable doing this, especially since Black Rook was there- but he stayed in my house.

Now. Robin, I feel, is a good friend of mine. He has been a good friend for two years (how quickly time passes) and we had many good memories together and I suppose, it just didn't happen, largely because of distance. It could have, had he moved down here, but it didn't happen in time.

Robin will tell you that he meant to do this and he was looking for a job down here etc.

Well then he should have communicated that a little better. I got a whole lot of we'll see's which turned into We'll see? See ya later!

I am terrible.

Black Rook was extremely worked up about Robin coming to visit, which- I really

And then we went to the beach
and then I was accused of plotting to put a crab in Black Rook's bed
which was exactly what I was going to do, I am so sadly predictable.
