Well so here I am, sitting at D's while he sleeps away half the day. Goodness, I definitely need to teach him to wake up earlier, that's for sure. I've been up since 9 and at least now I'm smart enough to bring a book over so I'm not totally driving him nuts.

The last couple of days have been weird but good. I know I said that I didn't think much would change once Dustin and I officially became a couple. But it is sorta different. First off, EVERYONE knows. I forgot what a small town this is, everywhere I go I get congratulations. I guess that's a good thing, everyone seems happy that D and I are finally together. It feels good knowing that his friends are supportive, that they like me and want me to be with him. Then there's the whole BOYFRIEND and GIRLFRIEND labels. I know I wanted those words really bad but, I have to say, they make me a little nervous. Maybe I'm just not used to them, it has been over a year since I've had someone to call my boyfriend. And even then I partly only wanted it to make someone else jealous. It's been about 2 and a half years since I've been completely proud to call someone my boyfriend. And I've been wanting to be Dustin's girlfriend for so long... I guess it's just a little surreal at the moment. I feel sort of like I'm dreaming and any moment I'll wake up to find it's not true. Dustin Hartenstein is MY BOYFRIEND. How nuts is that???

When this all happened I was having to work a couple of 5AMs in a row, like I said. On Monday night I couldn't seem to get to sleep because I just wanted to see Dustin! I finally called him and asked him to come over for a little while and we kissed and cuddled. He kept looking at me and... I felt so adored. It's been so long since I've felt cared for like that, it feels SO GOOD. However, I had to make him leave so I could get to sleep! I kept telling myself that the sooner I fell asleep the sooner it would be morning and the sooner I could get done with work. That's the only thing that got me through the day was knowing that the faster it went back the sooner I'd see Dustin.

Tuesday night was SO fun! Shannon came over and we went to Dustin's softball game. We sat with Benji and Loretta and Micaela and Heather (the wife of one of the players on Dustin's team). They were playing a double header and once the sun went down it was awesome. The funniest part of "Crazy Sarah" showing up. She's the one that wants Dustin and I kept saying she better stay the hell away from my man. I know I don't seem too intimidating but anyone who knows me well will say that I get a little scary when I'm mad. But I didn't even have to do anything... Loretta and Heather were being catty enough, lol. It was pretty funny, though, I was amused.

So the boys won their first game and lost the second. It was fun to watch and scream for them, I had a really good time. Afterwards Dustin, Bryan, Martin, Shannon and I went back to the house. Shan had to head home so then it was the boys and me. We made a trip for more beer and to McD's for food then came back to drink and what not. There was a little Jodie drama but it was all good. I had fun just chillin' with the boys and again I have to say I'm so glad D's friends like me.

The one problem was me getting my period although... I guess I'm a little relieved because I've been feeling sick to my stomach and I was a little worried about why. But I was bummed because.... well, I'm sure we all know why. Dustin and I went to bed and cuddled and kissed and cuddled more. It was good.... really, really good.

We went to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory last night and it was REALLY GOOD, I think, really funny. Yeah... things are good. I'm happy and falling so hard for Dustin. It's just good.

More soon.
