I'm baaaack

Who knows if this will be a recurring thing, I'm really bad at starting things and never following through. Sorry!!! And sorry for posting a depressing blog up for 3 months. Let's see....what has been going on in the world of KQ? Well, I took a month off of work (for 1 week of that, the entire company was closed) to travel to Paris and the Seychelles with my family. It was a ton of fun, and I got a great tan and loads of relaxation. Unfortunately, it also means that I used up almost all of my vacation time for the rest of the year. I think I have about 5 hours left to spread thinly over the next 9 months. Wow. I'm going to conveniently call in "sick" a few days around the 4th of July, Easter, Thanksgiving...

I'm loving my apartment, the bugs have finally left me alone I hope. Now I'm just left with my pestering, mooching, roommate ES. Have I talked about her? She's one of my best friends's little sisters, 19, first time out on her own. She eats enough for a family of four, NOT that that's completely awful, per se, but I'm afraid it's rubbing off on me to snack more. And THAT is the problem. She also did not pay rent for 3 months, but she finally got her loan and only owes me for 1 more month. Thank goodness. There's loads more to say about her, but I'll have to devote an entire new entry for that.

And of course the men. What to do about the men? With my clever questioning, I have deduced that QK--yes, the guy I've liked for months and months from church--is not questionable, he is in fact straight. Yayyyy!!! Now comes the tricky part of getting him to like me. My sisters have informed me that it is not in my genes to flirt. One of my sisters actually shook her crush's hand at the end of a date, just to give you an idea of how sad we Q sisters are. So because there's no way I could flirt my way into a date, I literally ran across the parking lot last month at church and asked QK out like a dumbass. My exact words were, "Um, I know that this is a bit forward, but...there's an exhibition down at the pier and I was wondering if you'd like to go with me....?" He consented! And although we haven't actually gone to see the exhibit, we've gone to lunch twice and have had a few late night phone conversations. Okay, as I type this it doesn't sound like much. And I'm still wondering if this is a case of "He's just not that into you." We'll see how this little story unfolds. But I really like him, and I hope that he soon wisens up to the fact that I am a damn good catch and I'm not going to be single for much longer, so he better get a move on!

I hope that's enough to whet y'all's palette for now, I hope to write more soon, but start bugging me if I don't. ;)
