I can has girlfriend!

So, as amazing as things were last week they have only gotten better since. All checks are checked. For those not on the facebook the news is out. Tabitha and I are now an item. A few weeks ago we just clicked and it's been inevitable ever since.

I've known Tabitha for a few years now since we both work at Bristol and for all of those years we have been friends. With my move to the street cast this season I began to see more of her and we got to know each other better than before. Post season we continued to hang out since we live really close to each other here in the city.

We work together really well and so far our friends have been thoroughly thrilled to hear the news. I thought you might too, oh my readers. No more sad posts in which the only thing missing from my life is a woman. No more assertions that I've lost. You were all right. To everyone who said I'd find the perfect woman some day and we'd be incredibly happy I say, well played. You were right. I did find an amazing woman with eyes I can get lost in and a beautiful soul, a woman I want to be near all day.

Thank you all for believing.

Since I still have some time before bed I figure maybe the other things bear mentioning.

+ dating, I covered this one already but could not resist crowing again. Tabitha is incredible!
+ employed, work is going well. Business has been picking up this week and the customers are starting to ask for me by name when they call.
+ eating food, regular paychecks begin this week meaning I'm no longer as poor as I have gotten used to.
+ roof over my head. Yep, haven't kicked me out yet.
+ place to sleep. I kinda live in a bouncy castle as I have not gotten myself a proper bed yet.
+ modern conveniences, my room mates practically came with attachments.
+ time with friends, having a weekly D&D game ensures that I see at least some people once a week but I am pleased to say that more often than not my laundry is not done on time because my friends came up with something awesome to do. Like going out to Dim Sum in Chinatown or singing karaoke at a hole in the wall bar. Living with two good friends doesn't hurt either.
+ acting- "Cripslam" charity gig at the Biograph Theatre November 23rd. Entertainment for a good cause.
+ reading good books, I don't know what made me mention this one last time but it's true. Finished "The Magician's Guild" really good read and am now working on "Cryptonomicon", "Odd Fish and Englishmen", Moonclaw" and "A Real Boy". I also have a small stack of comic books which need reading, not the least of which are a couple of Batman comics lent to me by the lovely miss Tabitha.
+ maintaining homeostasis, core temperature still roughly 98.6 and all functions and organs working well.
+ metabolizing sugars, still going strong. The enzymes are running on all cylinders.

I also promised updates on a few other things. For one the Halloween party.
The date is set for the thirty-first at 8:00 pm. Drawn heroes is the theme and we are encouraging compliance though, of course, not enforcing it since that would take like work and stuff. You can check out the facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/event.php?eid=33495095806

The Bow tie went smashingly, as did the rest of the tux. It went well with the incredible elegance of a certain teal dress I might mention. The wedding was beautiful. It's always good to see people happy but the smiles and emotions flying about at weddings make me wish I played organ, just so I could go to more of them. Doc and Keith have been perfect from the day they met. At this point most people assumed they were married already so the wedding may have come as something of a surprise to some. I wish them years of bliss and know that if I want to be happy in my life it's a good job I have such models to base my efforts off of.

Julia has made the decision to move to the city finally and I got to help her go apartment hunting for the one day she had with us. She is now the proud lesee of an apartment in Logan Square which means she will be quite close to casa del nerd. It's good to know she'll be able to come hang out again. Now, just to pull the rest of my college friends into my gravity. Twaffle, Scott anyone else not doing anything right now, I'm looking at you.

Well, laundry is done. I hope that finally blogging will assuage some and having a girlfriend will excite others (special prize to those in both categories if you can name the graph most commonly used to express your situation). I look forward to your comments and promise that I will try to keep up more closely.

  1. *smirks* I already got my told-you-sos in, didn't I?

    ...ah, to hell with that.
    I told you so!!!

    I'm glad I went a-wandering and retrieving this blog url tonight. I'd been wondering how those conversations went, and I'm glad things are working out so smashingly.

    And that was Doc and Kieth's wedding? You should have mentioned, silly man!

    Huzzah, lovely lady dating Ansel!
