Can't my life make sense for once?
Way back in high school, I got to be really good friends with a guy named Travis. We were in the same seminary class and we both really disliked our teacher. We got to be pretty good friends and even skipped class once so we (along with this other kid Kent) could go play Clue at Travis' house (don't worry, I called my mom for permission!). Well, after graduation day, he kind of disappeared. I heard he moved to Boise to apprentice for an electrician. And he went to the MTC, but came home after only 3 weeks. I never heard much after that. He found me on facebook about 6 months ago and sent me a message. I sent him one back, but he never responded. I thought it was a little weird, but it didn't bother me that bad. So randomly last week, he finally responds to me and tells me he wants to talk, and not just on facebook. So he sent me a private message with his number and said to call him. I told him it would be fun to talk and gave him my number in return, but not really expecting anything. That night, he calls me. I was at work so I couldn't answer, but it really intruiged me. I sent him a message telling him I was sorry I missed his call and that we should try again the next day. So he does call, but at 8 in the morning! Being a saturday and my first opportunity to sleep in in awhile, I didn't answer. I was very confused all day because why would this guy I hadn't talked to in almost 2 years suddenly be so persistant in trying to get ahold of me? I didn't call him back because I was too scared. Today, being monday, I get another call but I had just barely woken up and didn't want to answer the phone in my gravelly voice. So I got up, ate breakfest and called him back. He didn't answer. About an hour after that he calls back and says he's in Rexburg and wants to come see me! I tell him where I live and try to look a little more presentable. When he comes, I was thrown a little off balance. There was Travis! And his girlfriend... They came inside and we talked for about an hour and then he left. He said he was waiting to see if he could go back on a mission, but won't find out for another month or so. We said that we should still keep in touch and then they left. It was very awkward the whole time they were here. I've never met her before so I didn't feel comfortable talking about my life in front of her, they kept giving each other hugs and bumping into each other which made me feel weird like I should give them some privacy or something, he told me about their relationship and how they met and all the romantic things he did for her on Valentine's Day, and we stood the entire time even though I offered to sit down. And my roommates were watching a movie and not exactly being quiet about it. I guess it was good to talk to him and get in touch again, but it was weird. Things like this always seem to happen to me. My life gets so awkward sometimes.
