Oh Boys

Last night, Cassie hosted a surprise b-day party for Ben. It was super cute, with  lots of food and a bonfire, and like 30 people, and Ken was totally surprised cause he had NO IDEA about it!   But it wasn't a night of skittles and rainbows for everyone.

Jessalyn and Aric dated for a while, but Aric kept calling it off because he wasn't able to make a commitment to her, due to an ex who seriously messed him up. I say kept, cause they totally had a revolving door relationship. They would be friends, then friends with benefits, then dating, then Jess would try to make it an exclusive thing because she wasn't into the whole FWB thing, and Aric would disappear again.

So this last time they broke up in November, it was Jessalyn who ended things since Aric once again refused to commit. This time she was determined for it to stick, and she even defriended him on Facebook. Aric had knee surgery early in December, and had been using that as an excuse to not hang out with our friend group at all. We all know it was really because he was mopey about Jessalyn.

Anyway, last night, Jessalyn and Aric saw each other for the first time in over a month. And Jessalyn didn't take it too well. She spent most of the night out at the fire pit, crying.  Thankfully Aric left the party early-ish, so Jessalyn had a few minutes of enjoyment at least.

Can I just say that things are going FANTASTIC between me and Cameron right now? I don't usually post anything about him on here, but he's a total sweetheart and I'm getting excited about his birthday coming up! Kisses, Cam!

3..2..1.. Let the next year of trouble begin!

You just can't have a sweet New Years party without a little drunkeness and a LOT of cattiness...

So, Tuesday, Aria and I hosted an awesome bash at Cameron's house. Cameron had church early, and Callie and James joined him. So here is the thing about James- Callie has had a crush on him for a LONG time. And she finally told him last year. But he wasn't really feeling it, especially with her living in Chicago, and started dating Annie.  But when Cassie was visiting in October, James flaked out on Annie a few times to hang out with Callie. Blew off dates and stuff.  Then soon after that, James and Annie broke things off. But, Annie, being the little high school drama queen she is, hates Annie simply because she and James are still so close.

Anyway, Callie and James went back to Cameron's house after church to finish getting ready for the party that was going to start in 2 hours. But when they got back, Annie was at the house, getting dressed with Cameron's roomie, Jessalyn, who is Annie's bff. They immediately pulled James to the side and told him he and Callie needed to leave, because Annie wanted to get dressed in a relaxing environment, and having James and Callie there stressed her out. James is usually totes a gentleman, but basically told the little brats that they could get over it, and close the door if they didn't want to see them. Score one for James!

So Jessalyn and Annie just stayed in Jessalyn's room and bathroom while Callie frosted cupcakes and made popsicles in the kitchen. They're they babies of the group, but I'm so tired of their dramatics, they've been acting like little high schoolers for a while, and if they can't get their little acts together, they are going to find their invites get left behind more often.

Party was standard party, no fights, even if there were a lot of nasty looks and catty remarks thrown around. Not sure Casey and Kelly said a word to each other the whole night, so I'm guessing the end of that relationship is going to rear it's head in the next few days. Ben even managed to keep his shirt on the whole night, unexpectedly.

I know, 2013 didn't end with too much juicy things going on, but I have some high expectations for 2014!
