So loren's now gone in so cal.

His plane left yesterday after a near disaster of almost missing his flight.

Couple of days ago:

Jessica: " So, when's your flight scheduled to leave? "

Loren: " 6. "

Jessica: " And you're off work when? "

Loren: " 4:30. "

Jessica: " ARE YOU HIGH!?!! You're not going to make it. With rush hour traffic? No way. "

So. I'm running late for work and that means Loren had to take my car yesterday to work. And that means he had to come back to richmond from berkeley to pick me up. I had also promised my coworker a ride home thinking I Was gonna have my car.

This is how the madness went:

Jessica and Marc( coworker) get off work at 4.

Loren gets off work at 4:30.

Marc and Jessica get kicked out of office so manager can go home.

Loren arrives at 4:50.

Car needs gas.

Get Gas.

Drop coworker off.

Loren is already pissed.

It's 5:00pm.

Loren gets on the freeway. Instant traffic.

So I say, " Fuck it. Get into the carpool lane. We'll go half on the ticket if we get one. "

Get in the carpool lane.

Speed to Alameda. Hit more traffic.

Get off Jackson St.

Drive down international blvd. to fruitvale.

Get back on the freeway.

It's 5:50.

Loren calls Mariesa and tells her he's not going to make his flight due to traffic.

Mariesa FREAKS out. Loren tells her he's not making it and to deal and drop it.

She calls approx. 3 more times.

At one point Loren tells her to make a decision as to what the plan is going to be.

She says she's too angry at her mother to make a decision.

I almost grabbed the phone to tell her to stop being so goddamn selfish and to deal with the issue at hand and deal with her " anger issues " later.

Loren told her to deal with it and make a damn decision.

She paused. Told Loren to get on a flight and they'll deal with it when he gets there.

This is a decision she made after freaking out and screaming at him to get to the airport and yelling at him as to how he could do this.

He was like. " What? Think I WANTED to miss my flight? DROP IT ALREADY! "

We get to the airport.

Loren and I have a hasty and angry sort of goodbye.

I drive home. Upset. Crying. Frustrated.

Get home. Leave Loren a message saying I hope he makes it and that I'm sorry things went so shitty. That I loved him and that he has a good weekend and that only good things come to him. And to call me about meeting him on sunday. Slighty crying while leaving msg.

Start packing.

Loren calls.

Says his flight was delayed 20 minutes and he made it pretty much on time.

I get off the phone and cry.

I do more packing and then just lay in bed and talk on the phone to my friend Mel about all that's going on.

Then Loren calls again to say everything is ok. I asked if she was still mad. He said no. I said of course not. Why would she be? ( In my head: Why would she be, she got what she wanted. He was somewhat on time and she freaked out over nothing. )

I go back to my phone call and then I go to bed.

Tonight is packing and clubbing with Ethan.

If anyone wants to go to the glaskat and go to a hiphop club/party. Let me know. I'll put you on the guestlist.

Well.

Wasn't that exciting boys and girls.

Well...

Moving this weekend.

Moving post coming next.
