And I don't mean the season for drama, actually. I know I've been out of town for a week, but surely something went on while I'm gone.. guess I'll have to sniff around!
While I was out, Beau continued his obsession with Soccer Girl, even though he was explicitly told to keep away from that mean girl. He sent me texts telling me to talk him out of messaging him, no dice. And Laura didn't return any of his texts, even though last week she GUSHED about HOW EXCITED she was to see him over the break. She is a known flake who lives in Texas... and loves to string poor Beau along. Last year he went to visit her in Texas after much encouraging by her... and when he got there, she introduced Beau to her boyfriend. So rude.
I'm preping for an interesting next few days- my friend Callie is visiting from Chicago. She comes down every year for New Years. I'm really happy to see her of course, but while I'm stuck at my day job she has a habit of trying on everything in my closet, and then discarding it on my floor and bed. Jewelry included. And she's a complainer. So I'm totally going to be exhausted til she leaves Wednesday.
AND my kind-of former bestie Natalie is probably going to be up to visit, at least for the New Years party. She used to be my bestie in college, but we grew apart when she went to Georgia to go to Pharm school. While she was there, she met this absolutely asshole, Steve, on a dating site. He was homeless and couch surfing at the time, and it wasn't long til he moved in. And then started telling Natalie that she was worthless, and would never do any better than him. Natalie is not a small girl, so she doesn't have the confidence she deserves, even though she is super smart and pretty. Anyway, I despised the guy, til he HIT her. Then I hated him. That bastard seriously thought it was ok to punch someone he claimed to love. He then went crazy and got Baker Acted that night., but Natalie refused to press charges, so he got released after 2 days. Nat claimed that she and Steve were over. And then she got a job and moved to North Tampa. But a few weeks ago, I found out that not only were Nat and Steve not over, she had moved that no good loser down to Tampa, and he was living with her again. We haven't actually really talked since I found out, mostly because I'm so mad at her, I can't stand it.
Ok, I'm tired. Back to work. But before I forget, turns out there was nothing going on between Lilly and Ben. I'm totally disappointed honestly. But there is always next week!
Can't wait to see what trouble develops on New Years Eve!

Never a dull moment
Last night we all went out to dinner for Casey and Lilly's birthday. It was so much fun, with only a little, mostly good-spirited, ribbing of people. Casey was even nice to Peter which was unexpected because they are NOT friends, although Lilly was a little mean to him, which is so unfortunate because Peter is really into her.
So, forgot to share, but Ben got engaged this week to Cassie. Squeeeeeal, right? Except they've only been dating like 7 months, so it was kind of strange. And they are still totally in the honeymoon portion of their relationship. And the engagement was sort of an accident- they were on Skype teasing Cassie's mom, telling her that they couldn't see her on Dec 15th because they were getting married. But then when they hung up, they were like, why shouldnt we get married?! Voila, engaged.
Anyway, we have all noticed Lilly and Ben being very flirty lately, giggles and tickle fights and going off into dark rooms for massages... well, Lilly went to Casey last night and told him she had some big reservations about Ben getting married. So Casey set up a dinner date with Lilly for Friday night, so he can try to wine and dine her and get the dish out of her! Things could totally get interesting!
Btw, on the Mina front- Casey is going out for drinks with her on Friday night. So yeah, that's still totally going on. No idea where Kelly is during all of this. She lives with Casey, so I'm not sure how long he is going to be able to keep it a secret.
Can't wait til Saturday morning to get some new gossip!

Double timing
OMG, Beau told me his story. And seriously, my jaw dropped. So, his juicy tidbit? Last week, after going out downtown after tailgating, Beau went with Mina over to her house. And had a hot and heavy makeout sesh. That's right, the same Mina who is fooling around with Casey behind Kelly's back. Beau wasn't positive about Mina, cause she's a bit of a crazy Brazilian, so he didn't sleep with her, but the opportunity was totally there.
And Casey is still talking to Mina, although he says it's more difficult to see her, now that Kelly is hovering around, trying to work on the relationship. My guess, Casey will keep Kelly around til January 3rd, then kick her out.
Til the next exciting segment!

Off Again, On Again
Ugh. So right before Thanksgiving, Casey and Kelly threw in the towel, and Casey asked Kelly to move out. But apparently Kelly turned on the water works, and convinced Casey that she is TOTALLY going to change. Uh huh. And Casey gave her another chance, that sap, right?
Consequently, Aria was out a roomie, with a lease ending in less than a month. And no too happy about it because she was excited to move into a bigger place with a yard for her puppyface, which is a lot less affordable without a roomie. Also, Kelly decided not to tell her that she and Casey were back together until after Aria had rearranged her schedule to look at houses. But more on that later.
Anyway, Casey told Kelly she could stay, and they would 'try again'. Except, what Kelly doesn't know, is Casey has already started screwing around with Mina. But it's a total secret, almost no one knows. And he doesn't expect things to work out with Kelly, he doesn't think their differences are reconcilable. But he doesn't want to deal with her during the holiday party season, cause he knows she will be a total bummer and he'll have to skip parties and quite frankly, this is the easy way out. He told me though that he is only giving her til the new year, then if things aren't roses and rainbows, he's saying goodbye again. The question is, what's going to happen with Mina in the mean time? My guess- Casey is going to keep seeing her behind Kelly's back, and it will be total relationship sabotage. But I guess I've been wrong before.
Back to Aria- she ended up signing a lease on Sunday with her sister, Lea, and Lea's husband, DumDum. I mean Brad, close enough. I mean, I know Aria was desperate, but this is total suicide. Since getting married, Lea has turned into a total drag, almost never shows at anything, and when she does leave early. And Brad is the laziest thing I've ever met, and that includes Danica's dog, who sometimes has to have a bowl held under his nose since he doesn't like to get up from the couch during dinner time. Hopefully things will work out and Aria will get to continue the fun and host her amazing parties, but I'm not holding my breath.
Guess that's it for now. Although I have been promised a juicy story from Beau the next time I see him, and I'm sure it will be blog worthy!

Ready for vacation!
It just wouldn't be a weekend in the life of Chloe without something dramatic happening. This weekend had 2 ugh instances. The first was with my good friendie, Beau. Beau has had the worst worst worst luck with the ladies. But when he met a hottie, Abby, at the Halloween party and she friended him on FB and started talking to him, he thought maybe his losing streak was over.
Of course it wasn't meant to be.
Abby told Beau that on Friday, she was heading downtown to this club, and that he should so totally come and hang. She told him they were planning on being there at 10 so they could get in free. My hottie, Cameron, and I begrudgingly agreed to go with him and keep him company until Abby showed up. At 11, we were ready to go, but no girl. Finally Beau texted her and she assured him she was just waiting in line downstairs and would be there shortly.
Once she showed up, Beau started buying Abby and her friends drinks. Cameron and I peaced out to have our own little rendezvous. Next morning I wake up to a lovely text from Beau about how girls are jerks, and apparently she was only there for the free drinks- she ignored him the rest of the night and talked to other people. Sigh. One of these days Beau is going to find a nice girl... but he's got to adjust his standards, the hot party girls are not going to do it.
On a different vein, Casey and Kelly broke up this weekend. It didn't come as much of a surprise to anyone, they had been on the rocks for a while, but it's going to be interesting since Kelly moved in with Casey a few months ago, and now needs to get out. He has agreed to move all her stuff for her, but it's not going to be an easy transition. Luckily, my bestie, Aria, was looking at apartments already and wanted a roomie, so looks like that will work out easily. Sucks for Casey though, since he was with the group first and now he fears getting kicked out, cause there is a good possibility this won't end amiably.
Guess that opens the door for a little more drama to come through!

The Trick was definitely not a Treat...
I know Halloween was like a billion years ago, but I absolutely have to start my blog with this story. I suppose you could say my Halloween party turned into a night to remember, for at least a few of my friendies...
Danica and I have been friends for years. Since 2005 I think. That's like forever in Chloe time. But she's been absent from my friend group for quite a while. She started dating this douchebag, Ken, about a year and a half ago, and she turned into one of those friends who disappears when she gets a boyfriend. Halloween was the first time I had seen her in probably 4 months.
Christy just joined our group about 3 months ago. She's this adorable blondie who recently lost 200 lbs and with her new-found confidence, joined the world of online dating with a fervor. And with much success. I'm so proud of her :)
Anyway, right after Christy got to the party, Ken suddenly started feeling 'sick' and ran outside, telling Danica they needed to leave right that minute. Danica refused to go without saying goodbye to everyone first though, so started walking around the party giving hugs. Christy saw Danica's lovely Regina costume, and immediately struck up a conversation with her. Danica told her that she was sorry that she hadn't seen her boy, Ken's, costume, since he was Rumplestiltskin, but he had already removed his wig when he walked outside. "What a coincidence!" said Christy, "this boy I'm talking to is also Rumplestiltskin tonight!" and she whips out her phone to show Danica a picture.
Of course, the picture is of Ken. Uh oh. Danica demands to know why Christa has a picture of her boyfriend on her phone. "Ummm. We met downtown a few weeks ago?" Christa makes up a quick excuse. They'd met on a dating website, but Christa wasn't ready to get involved quite yet. So Danica marches outside to confront Ken, who is literally hiding behind a tree. A freaking tree. He knows he's dead, and doesn't have the balls to face it.
Danica slaps Ken in the face, demanding to know why he was downtown, getting numbers from girls. He makes up some lame excuse about them both being from Michigan (true) so he was having a nice time talking to someone about home. Ok, whatever, Danica is fuming and decides it's time to go home.
I have NO IDEA where I am during all this drama. Making out with my new hottiepants in the back bedroom maybe? But once I make an appearance in the main room of the house, Christy races over to me to tell me how she is a homewrecker without ever meaning to be. So I get most of the story from her, get a good laugh out of it cause I know Ken is a dick, and proceed to make sure everyone in my party knows the story so they can enjoy this drama as much as I am.
Next day, I'm talking to my bestie, Aria, and she informs me that Danica doesn't know that Ken has been dicking around on dating websites, since that never came out with the story Ken and Christy told her. She also doesn't know that Ken had been on a date with Christy just 4 days earlier. Everyone decides it's up to me to tell her, since I'm the closest. Ugh, I like being in the middle of the drama, but I hate being the messenger of bad news!
So I message Danica, letting her know the dirty deets. She calls a half hour, a total mess, telling me how she kicked him out and is furious and upset and just a disaster. I calm her down a little and get off the phone. Few hours later, I get a text from her, she's gone on his ipad and found him sexting with another 2 girls and making up all sorts of stories about himself. Eww. She takes screenshots of this and emails them to his mom and dad. Haha. A woman scorned....
Ok, back to my boring, mostly drama-free job. Until the next exciting chapter!

I swear, this stuff just follows me
In high school, you expect a certain level of drama. With a couple thousand hormone-fueled young people crammed into one space, each trying to build a reputation, figure out where they fit in the grand scheme of the world, yeah, you're going to run into more OMG situations than you ever wanted to handle. So when my high school life was filled with dramatics, it was okay, I was assured that college would be much different. But then college happened. And I assure you I could write a novel on the drama of college life. But, hey, everyone's finally moved away from home, trying to establish independence, this isn't the real world just yet. Adulthood is on the horizon, and I was sure that would finally be a calm time.
Boy was I wrong.
It's not like I ask for it. It just follows me around. I regale my coworkers with the stories of my life, how much of it comes straight from the pages of a book or a movie, even though I work an incredibly unassuming job (I'm a civil engineer) and have a fantastic group of friends. They encouraged me to write these things down and share.
So here is the adventure that is my life, prepare for a bumpy ride.
