Wow.

No trip to Tennessee for me! On Wednesday Charlie Bravo called me and said that his boss gave him the wrong weekend off, not this weekend but next weekend. I can't go next weekend because I'm moving. How sad. Even though I was nervous I was still upset about not meeting his family. I think that news was the straw that broke the camels back (where the hell did that phrase come from?!). All the stress of moving plans and Ohio trip plans and VERIZON got to me. I called into work and cried for most of the day. I'm sure it had nothing to do with it being the wrong time of the month for bad news. It was good to be lazy though. Sometimes you just need those mental health days. Especially for people like me that holds everything inside until they just break down. Hey, if I could change I would.

I signed up for the Bamboo Club emails and they gave me a buy one entrée get one free coupon! Woohoo!!! If you remember that is the place I took Charlie Bravo for our one month anniversary. It was also the place I decided to take him to talk about my opportunity in California.

Now, I know I said that I can't go because I have an aunt that is moving here and I don't want to abandon her but I would be lying if I said the idea still hasn't been in the back of my head for the past few days. Enough for me to look at apartments in Burbank (which is where the ABC studios are) online and to set up a phone conversation with Jessie to talk about it. But I didn't want pursue the idea any further without getting Charlie Bravo's take on it. It would be stupid of me to walk away from the one relationship I've had that I could see lasting for a really long time.

It went well. I started out by bringing up that a few weeks ago he mentioned that his uncle got a job for Microsoft out in Washington State and I asked him if he's heard from him. He says he hasn't but if he ever did then he would have to move out there to work for them. He asked me if I would go with him. I forget what I said but then he said that he would never live in Washington state. So I brought up that if my work ever came to me and told me that I'm doing such a good job that they have decided to have me head up the office in California, what would he say? He told me that that would be a good opportunity. I asked him if he would go with me and he said that California is a long way away but if I wanted him to go with him then he would. Wow. I have a boyfriend that is willing to move 3,000 miles away with me! I never thought that would happen! Then I told him about Jessie and Extreme Home Makeover and the opportunity she has and told him that she could probably get me a job there too since it's a "friend of a friend" thing. Then he started in with "you're leaving me!" and I told him that it's just a small idea and that I really can't go because of my aunt. Then I reminded him that he said he would go with me. I think that if the idea ever became more then an idea then it's something we would have to really talk about instead of throw around over drinks and fancy Chinese.

It still baffles me that I have someone that would actually consider moving with me across country. So this is how real relationships work? Wow.

On a side note I realized that I stiffed the waiter because the real bill without the discount was over $20 more then what we actually paid and I based the tip on the smaller amount instead of the real one without thinking. Charlie Bravo told me not to worry about it. I told him that I feel bad and it's bad karma. As he was backing out of the parking lot he bumped the truck behind him, leaving a small red area on his white car. It's nothing serious that can't be rubbed out, but it's karma I tell you! I should've left the waiter four more dollars!
