Unexpected Hapiness

So last weekend was very unexpected for me… :P What I thought was going to be a normal weekend full of nothingness turned out to be something completely different.

It started with a conversation on Friday night when Andre misunderstood a question I asked him. I was pondering whether I wanted to go to the fish lift and said to him “hmm, do I want to go on a fish lift tomorrow…?” And he misread what I typed and thought I was asking him if he wanted to come. So this led to a slightly awkward and very confusing conversation which was eventually cleared up ☺ And Andre ended up inviting himself along anyways :P

So one uncomfortable conversation with the ‘rents, a very early morning and a malfunctioning break light later, I found myself at the train station picking up Andre at 8:20am. I do not do early mornings. :P But for Andre, I will ☺

We got to the fish lift late (9:15-ish) and therefore there were no jobs for us to do :P So we watched ☺ And when my parents arrived, we talked ☺ My dad and Andre seemed to hit it off and talked about everything from rifles, to golf, to hunting, to motorcycles. Aka, guy stuff :P and my mom ran around introducing me to all the Ministry peeps trying to get me in with people who could potentially be hiring me… :P

Anyways, after the fish lift, my parents went to go visit my Grandma, which left Andre and I with the house to ourselves for a couple hours. :P We had lunch, but on the short notice, I had not had time to clean my room. Therefore after lunch, Andre and I made good use of the basement :P

After, we went to the barn where I taught a lesson, introduced Andre to Indie, and showed him around the property a little. Then we went back home and napped for a little bit till my parents came home.

We had dinner, and chatted and it was all very nice ☺ My brother wasn’t home, but the conversation came easily, and Andre was a perfect gentleman ☺

Andre and I left for the train station and got there slightly early, only to find that his train had been delayed a whole hour. Which we weren’t exactly complaining about, because it gave us a whole other hour together ☺ which we made excellent use of :D

Probably the best moment of the night came when we were unpacking Andre’s stuff from the car. I had my tea in one hand and his French vanilla in the other. He put on his back pack and went to turn around to face me, and in doing so, knocked my hand, and the tea that was in it, sending it flying. Tea spilled everywhere and I screamed and, acting on instinct, grabbed for it. And I caught it! :D I was so so sooo proud of myself, and about half the tea was still left in it :D But it was sooooo funny. It was one of those moments where you laugh so hard your belly hurts and you have to bend over in order to breathe. I couldn’t speak and could barely laugh I was laughing so hard. It was a really really good moment ☺

But then we had to say good bye. But this time, it was a little better ☺ Because I get to see him again this Friday :D He’s coming for the open house for the college he is going to go to next year on Saturday and will possibly be staying until Sunday, which point I am hopefully going back to rez with him :D

So in that sense, I am very happy. In another sense, I am not. But I will not dampen this happy post with money issues, because it is not necessary. Maybe some other time…

I love you all, and miss you like crazy. I can’t wait to see you after exams! :D
