How to shake a bad mood?

I’m pretty sure I have been in a bad mood since Monday and I apologize to each and every one of you that has had to deal with me throughout the course of the last 5 days. I keep hoping that I will wake up on the right side of the bed but I never do. So my apologies to all and my apologies for not writing a blog post due to this mood.

Tuesday I woke up to a text from Jeffray “I miss you.” What a Nancy – but it made me smile. I don’t think I’ve ever had a guy miss me while I was away on a business trip – makes me feel grown-up! I was hoping to get to see him upon my arrival back to town on Tuesday night but Amtrak had other plans in store.

Anna and I arrived at the train station with Jimmy Johns – YUM. We took a seat outside and began cringing at the site of all the school children who were apparently getting ready to ride the train with us. I wasn’t too worried and I was pretty excited in fact because we had business class or first class tickets for the way home. I figured since the train was so nice on the way up that this trip home would be pure luxury. I was wrong. You see our train lost power on its wy to pick us up and we were told we would need to ride a bus home. My coworker was promised that it would be a nice bus and that it would be to the station by 5:00 to get us home on time. At 6:15 the bus rolled up. It in fact was not nice but disgusting. As I boarded the bus I made my way to one of the only seats available for two people and placed myself and Anna right near the bathroom… you know for that supposed 3 hour ride back to Charlotte. We arrived at the Charlotte station 5 hours later after getting lost, smelling awful smells from the toilet, etc. etc. Tuesday night was pretty much my worst nightmare.

But I was excited for Wednesday because we were having game night at our house and I was finally going to see Jeffray. Game night was, as I assumed it would be, entertaining (especially after the alcohol took hold of our systems)  – it was filled with inappropriate and immature remarks – mostly on my end – and couples. We had Jeffray and I, Lauren and J, Canaan and Heather and Mandy and Lindsay – oh and Brandon came even though he didn’t have a lady. I snuck away after cleaning up and put myself to bed – still tired from the train. At this point and seeing that I was gone Brandon took it upon himself to tell Jeffray that I was upstairs “doing my business.” I was on the edge of sleep when I heard Jeffray upstairs calling my name but he never knocked on my door – maybe 20 minutes later I heard my door opening and it was Jeffray coming to say good night and to tell me that Brandon was making these comments. Jeffray said he was unsure if that was what I was doing so he didn’t come in my room. Well Jeffray, I don’t have a bathroom in my room and I’m not gross so for future reference that probably isn’t what I am doing if my door is closed but thanks for trying to be polite. Also, thank you to Brandon and Heather for pushing in my bedroom door and running off – mature, real mature you two.

Yesterday I had a long convo with Brandon which led to him stating that he can no longer be friends with Lindsay to which I told Lindsay in hopes that she could save their friendship. She called Brandon out on that comment and now Brandon doesn’t trust me and no longer wants to be my friend (probably a ploy to get off of our kickball team for the Spring – I’m onto you). Brandon, I would like to be your friend again and I’m sorry I tried to right the wrong that led to you and Lindsay not being friends. Lindsay, you know I’ve got your back so should you decide that we should in fact not be friends with Brandon just give me a head’s up and I will retract that statement. Yesterday does not include any details about Jeffray because I did  not see him and barely talked to him – at about 8pm I had myself convinced he was trapped in a mine or lost in the woods and that was why I wasn’t hearing from him – turns out he was asleep.

Jeffray has invited me to come to his place tonight so he can cook me dinner -very cute. I am bringing the beer – I’m such a good girlfriend. And no, I will not be bringing PBR – sorry.

Tomorrow we have our kickball tournament – kinda a sad day. I’ve really enjoyed our team and we’ve had so much fun together plus I got a boyfriend from it. Plus Lauren is on her way to one (Jeffray – Lauren’s boy even offered to rake our leaves. Cough cough.) Don’t worry about Lindsay – for those who know the three of us you know we travel in a pact and do everything the same. Lindsay always has some guy with his eye on her (two at the moment) and I’m sure she’ll be getting some ass numbers  this weekend at the after party for kickball.

I promise once I shake this mood I will write more and it will actually be entertaining. 3.5 hours left to the work day – praise JESUS!
