7/21- Erhm... Normal day.

Today...

You know, I'm not sure why I'm blogging again, honestly.

I think it's because I know I need to get back in the habit of doing it, because school is coming up.

As of right now, life is... Fairly boring, honestly.
My life consists of setting up this Ultrabook for school, playing video games, and working.

Hopefully something exciting will happen soon!
Good exciting, not bad exciting.

Hehe. I can hear my dad snoring from the other room.

Maybe I should get some sleep too...

Oh wait, no I shouldn't.
I have Dark Souls.

HA.

Goodnight!
-Nolan

7/20- I suppose I should try to get back into my own "daily" blog...

Well, I'm not sure how to summarize everything that's been happening in the past few months where I consistently... Forgot to blog.

Or remembered, and didn't really care enough to write.

Mostly the latter.

So, I'm back.
I'll try to talk on here a bit more... I don't really talk to people any more.
I'm a bit of a social hermit nowadays.

Taylor moved out to Vegas a few weeks ago!
She just needed some time to herself, without having to worry about paying for rent or food, especially when it's difficult to find a job that fits.

Yes, we are still dating. I intend to keep it that way, and I'm sure she does too!
She's coming back near the end of October, so I'm pretty excited for that.
I miss her.

And it's been, what, 3 weeks?
Well hey, "absence makes the heart grow fonder."

Hmm, I don't remember if... Hang on...

...

Yup! I said in my last post that I work at Wal-Mart now.
I still have that job, thankfully. It's not too bad.
People hate it, but I really don't mind.

I mean, it's not my favorite place on the planet, but it's not my least favorite!

Favorite would be cuddling with Taylor and watching a movie, least favorite would be anywhere having a panic attack or disassociative episode alone.

We also moved!
Yup, from our house of 11 years to a new one down in Loveland.
It's a cute little house.
Lots of windows, comfortable, new (brand-new, just built), in a decent little neighborhood where the people across the street own a pretty red WRX that I want.

I picked up an Ultrabook for school! I like it a lot. It's what I'm blogging on right now.
Way faster for schoolwork and stuff, which is what I needed. Also really light and portable, with a smaller power cable!
It's originally $700, I got it for $300 because it was a display unit.
Install Ubuntu, nice and quick.

Alright, well, I need to sleep.
I have feels.

Lots of them.
And I should try to pass out to avoid them.

I just... Blah.
I don't know. My head is overloading me.

Oh! I'm medication-free for the first time in years.
Although, that might be why I've had the feels especially bad the last couple days.

Meh. I'll figure it out.

Well, I'm off to try and sleep.
Orrrrrrrrrr browse Reddit first, then sleep.

Here's hoping I start posting more and talk to all you wonderful people,

G'night!

-Nolan

5/21- It's summer, I'm back, and it's time for a re-cap!

Okay, not a real re-cap. I mean seriously.

I won't cover EVERYTHING SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME EVER.

Just most of it. 

Okay, not even most of it.

Just some of it.

Okay, not even some of it.

Just as much as I feel like talking about I suppose.

Last blog was about... OH DEAR GOD IT'S MORE THAN A MONTH AGO!

MY BLOG ISN'T DAILY ANYMORE!

I NEED TO DO SOMETHING CRAZY TO GET PEOPLE TO READ MY BLOG AGAIN!

LIKE SNORT CONDOMS!

No seriously. What the hell? I don't know why that's become "a thing," but it disturbs me.

It was probably a bet.

Look it up on Youtube if you dare.

But anyway.

Yeah.

I haven't blogged in a long time.

But I'll try to get back into it! Just because I enjoy bringing you, the reader, a bunch of exciting things.

Such as...

Uh...

Today... Weather happened. OH WAIT NO IT DIDN'T I LIVE IN SPACE NOW.

Yes. I live in space. On Mars. 

I'm the King of Mars at the moment. 

Gonna resign and take over Neptune tomorrow. Bring my own trident and everything.

Wow. 

I'm exhausted and kind of... Rambling on about everything.

I'll try and focus now.

Let's see here...

Since my last blog...

A lot has happened actually!

I mean, there's just a lot of stuff. Mostly random. 

I can't think of any specifically huge events that are massive and require hours of documentation. 

I'll try to pick the big ones.

Taylor went out to Vegas for her birthday! She went to spend a few days with her mom, and she had a fantastic time. She got to go to the Pawn Stars pawn shop (one of her favorite shows), look at the menu of one of Gordon Ramsey's restaurants (one of her favorite chefs), and visited the Hoover Dam (one of her favorite concrete structures named after a President of the United States that holds back large amounts of water)!

We had our 2-month anniversary. 

Now, I know that's a little... Not childish, but I don't know the word I'm looking for.

The sad thing is, that's actually a unique thing in our generation. Our relationships are short-lived but intense. 

So to me, 2 months is important. 

It's been a fantastic 2 months, going on 3. I'm excited about it.

For the first time, my girlfriend is my best friend. I've never experienced it before, and I love it. 

It's... Unique. 

Awesome.

New. 

This girl... I love her. I really do. You all can say that I'm too young to know what love is, but I know I do.

I may be young and immature, but I can be mature sometimes, when the situation calls for it.

School... How did school go... Well, it wasn't horrible! I didn't fail anything that I know of. I'm currently waiting on finding out the grade that I got for the class that I was failing, so I'm kind of nervous to know what I got.

But I didn't fail anything else. That I know of...

My History class was iffy. Not great. But I didn't completely do horribly. Just not my subject I suppose. 

Next was Psychology 210. We studied a lot of different approaches to psychology, like Industrial//Organizational psychology or specific methods of therapy and such. That was an awesome class!
I loved it. I did alright. 

After that was Philosophy 110: Logic and Critical Thinking. Yeah... Didn't do too well. I might have failed. Still not sure. I just hated the way the professor taught. He taught well, I just didn't learn in the way he explained things, which was entirely out of definitions and vague diagrams. 

SPCM 200, Public Speaking. I loved that class. It was so much fun. The instructor was really nice, young, enjoyable, enthusiastic, and just all-around really cool. 

PSY316 was Environmental Psychology. It was... Interesting. Not my favorite, but it was remotely interesting. 

I hope that I didn't do too badly this semester.

Alright, onto the rest of my life.

I AM EMPLOYED.

VICTORY IS MINE.

I am a cashier at Wal-Mart. 

I haven't had any bad experiences yet. At least, none that are nearly as bad as the ones people always talk about. I don't hate my job!

Hooray!

I make about $8.40 an hour, which is pretty good. On my first paycheck, I bought Taylor and I dinner at Cafe Athens, and then bought her an adorable little jade Buddha that she'd been waiting to get for a month or two. I get paid again on Thursday, because my first paycheck was at an awkward time in the pay period where I only got paid for 6 hours. So hopefully this one will get me lots of money. I've already used a lot of it, but I still will have some left. I want to get an iPhone and a couple tickets to Elitches for us this summer.

One of our friends TJ has an iPhone that he's willing to sell me for maybe $130 or so. I'm quite excited for that.

I got Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate in the past couple months. 

I have around 192 hours into it, and I've loved every minute of it.

I'm having a large get-together of guy friends on Thursday, and I'm sure there will be much hunting done. Fantastic game. 

I also picked up Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3!

Finally!

My current team is Taskmaster//Ghost Rider//Nemesis.

There's some changes to be made there, so I'm still deciding on that stuff. Maybe use Strider as anchor, not sure. 

 

Oh! And we're moving!

Sometime in mid-July. We're moving to a small house a little south of Trilby. North side of Loveland. I'm excited.

I think that's really it for now... Oh oh oh!
Here is my girlfriend's blog. Read it!

It'll be getting more and more intense over time. I'm sure that you'll love to read it! So follow it, check it daily, read up on that stuff!

I'm going to go to sleep now. Gotta get some rest.

G'night world!

-Nolan

4/3- Today, was, a, day, when, stuff, happened.

Today, I woke up at Taylor's house!
SHOCKING.

I swear, it was HOT in that room last night.
Not like that. Perv.

I mean that I was sweating. Somehow, ALL the sheets shifted from on top of her, ALL on me.
So I had about 3 feet of blankets piled on me and didn't know it.

"I have a lot of blankets. I like to cocoon myself."

Yes, yes she does.

I woke her up and went to class.
Class was alright!

I mean, stressful.
I didn't have a good class day.

Just.. Stress.
Bleh.

After class, I dropped by her house and we went to the bank to get her some money figured out.
Her card expired and she needed the cash!

We got all that stuff figured out, and she headed out to work.

I went over to Aaron's at that point!
We played lots of Monster Hunter, and we progressed to High Rank. It's awesome.
Fancy.

And now I'm at Taylor's! We just went down to the gas station to get her some gas, then dropped by my house to get my meds.
And now, we're watching Family Guy, then we're gonna go sleep and be lazy.
Night!

-Taylor & Nolan

4/2- Sleepy..

Erh.
I'm not in the mood to blog..

I'm worn out and tired.
Feeling lazy.

So.. Yeah.... Sorry.
I need to sleep.

I apologize my blogs are so boring nowadays.
I'll work on that.

-Nolan

4/1- I'm pregnant!

HAAAAA JOKE'S ON YOU IT'S APRIL FOOL'S HAHAHAHAHA no.

Everyone used that joke.
Seriously.

Find something new.

Like...

I'm way too sleepy to figure anything good out, not gonna lie.

Hmm.
Today, I started my day by my dad actually waking me up and reminding me I had a doctor's appointment!
But both of us forgot it was tomorrow.

So I woke up early.. And didn't fall back asleep.

Went to class.
It was alright.. I didn't sleep through any of it all day!
And I actually understood a LOT of my Logic class, which is awesome after 2 straight weeks of confusion.
So hopefully I can pick up that stuff a little easier and learn more.

After class, I went over to pick up Taylor, and we hung out then went to the Aggie in Old Town to see Minus The Bear live!

First concert I've been to in a long while!
It was awesome. Great band!
I mean, I've barely heard any of them.
She introduced them to me.. And I love them!

I plan on getting more of their music to listen to soon.

After the concert, we got some ice cream and went back to my house to be lazy.
I just got home maybe 15 minutes ago, and took my medication.

My head is pounding, I feel like I'm going to throw up, and I need to sleep.
So I'm going to go to sleep now!

Today was good. I kinda loved it.

Adios!

-Nolan

3/31- xdddddddddddddddddddddddddddcz

Welllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllthis that is an awesome blog title, yes
Yes.

Sooooo today.

I stayed the night at Taylor's!

Woke up and stayed the day over here.

We spent the day just hanging out!
After waking up, we went and picked up some money and put gas into my car, then drove down to Old Town and got ice cream!

After that, we just sat around.
Watched some movies, watched Family Guy, listened to music, and I did studying!

This fantastic blog title is from when Taylor and I were just sitting and watching Family Guy, and my elbow kinda hit the laptop.

So..

Yeah.
I'm exhausted.

How do you feel babe?

"So tired I'm drunk."

We were at King Sooper's-

"THAT'S NOT WHERE THE BABY SPINACH GOES!"

Yeah. We randomly saw baby spinach in the drink section.
It was funny.

Back to Family Guy!

Adios!

-Nolan & Taylor

3/30- UhhhHHHHhh.

Todayyyy..

Oh right!
I didn't blog yesterday!

My bad..

Basically, Taylor was having a bad night so I rushed over about 3:15 or so, and stayed there for the night!

I spent the day at home playing Monster Hunter and.. Being lazy in general.

I'm so tired.

I'm also a little lazy and don't feel like blogging... So good night.

-Nolan

3/28- Uh.

"Apparently you spent the night last night, and I don't remember. I don't remember today. I literally don't."

I know that feel.
I'm kind of sleepy and everything that happened today is all blurring together and it feels like-

"You look extra sexy today?"

Yes, yes I do.

Yiss yiss.

Uh.
Yum. Incense.

Warm spice.

"I farted."

Warm spice.

KITTY.

POOFY KITTY.

Rajah is adorable.

I'm tired.
And we're giggly.

Giggily giggily.

-Nolan & Taylor

3/27- Todayyyyy

Todayyyyyyy..

Well, stuff happened, but I'm kind of tired.

And not in the mood to blog.

Soooo.. I'm very sorry.

But I need to go.

And I will make sure tomorrow is more interesting.

G'night!

-Nolan

3/26- GOBBLET AND CANNIBALIZING NOLAN'S BLOG

LUMOS

Greetings!

'Tis Taylor again!

I had a terrible start to my day, I had to leave work halfway through because of some pain I was experiencing, it was making me sick.

Literally, I almost passed out.

And I've missed a lot of work, so this is not very good.

UGH blah.

So I came home, took ibuprofen, went to bed, then woke up to Nolan.

LOVE WHEN THAT HAPPENS.

Then he left for class again,

And I played Sims 3 Supernatural from about five o'clock, to almost midnight.

That game is SO ADDICTING, GUYS.

Nolan got back to my apartment around seven fifteen, and he played his Monster Hunter while I played Sims.

We're an awesome duo.

THEN 

We went to the Alley Cat, an awesome cute little cafe above a hookah bar in Fort Collins.

He got his hot chocolate because he's strange and doesn't like coffee, and I got my mocha.

They have board games galore there, so we sat there and tried to pick one we liked.

We found one called Gobblet.

All of the games there do not have instructions in them, and most of them have missing pieces, but this one had most of the pieces with a couple substitute pieces, and we found the instructions online.

Now that game takes some brain thinking awesome magic power stuff.

Like, seeing what your opponent is going to do before you even move your pieces.

We played about five games,  

I got another mocha

THEY COME IN THESE AWESOME MUGS, BY THE WAY

And now I'm shaky because of all the caffeine, but I am strangely tired.

But anyway.

He won a couple games, I won a couple.

The last game, OMG I am so proud of myself

The two options, basically, that he had, either way he put it, I still won.

LIKE, THAT NEVER HAPPENS TO ME

I AM SO EXCITED.

Anything you want to add, Nolan sir?

"Uh, not really."

He's playing my roommate's PlayStation 3.

So he's..

Preoccupied.

But! That was our day, pretty much.

Still excited over that board game.

Have a great day/night, my minions.

Nox.

Da.

-Nolan & Taylor

3/25- Shakespeare in the Park?

Doth mother know, you weareth her drapes?

HAI PEOPLES IT'S ME AGAIN 

WE WATCHED THE AVENGERS TODAY AND NOW I'M LIKE OMG IRON MAN AND CAPTAIN AMERICA OMG GUYS I LOVE THEM

IRON MAN

 

IRON MAN THREE COMES OUT MAY THIRD

I'M GOING TO FALL OFF THE STARK TOWER

I AM SO EXCITED

Can you tell?!

So today, Nolan and I woke up and drove ALL THE WAY TO GHETTO SCARY GREELEY because I have a psychiatrist there. We left my apartment at eight thirty in the A.M. to get there for my nine thirty appointment. And those appointments literally last a maximum of ten minutes.. MAYBE.

Hate it.

So then we drove back home.

And my car sounded weird.

So I was like OH MY GOD I AM GOING TO CRY END OF THE WORLD BLAH BLAH BLAH.

And then we got to my place, and I went to sleep while Nolan sir went to class. Lame. 

Then about four hours later I wake up to his fuzzy cute face.

SO I take to my car to Jiffy Lube, thinking I probably need an oil change because my car was making the noise it always makes when it really needs an oil change.

And basically they tell me my car sucks cheese and it needs this done to the transmission and there's sludge in my radiator (even though I had my radiator flushed a few months ago for that) and that I had an oil leak and something else related to and engine flush because my oil was off stick and like ten other things, trying to squeeze money out of me, or I really need to take my car to the car hospital.

Again, wanted to cry.

My car is a necessary thing in my life! To get to work and Nolan and chocolate and such.

SO IN NINETEEN DAYS I fly to Vegas to see my mommy! I HAVE NOT SEEN HER IN A YEAR GUYS I AM SO EXCITED.

And I love Pawn Stars, on History Channel.

She's taking me to their pawn shop.

I DO NOT CARE THAT THEY WILL NOT BE THERE I AM STILL EXCITED.

My birthday is next month.

WOO

TWENTAY YARS OO-ELD.

So I made my roommate Ryan watch The Hunger Games yesterday for the first time.

I love taking people's Hunger Games movie and book virginity.

I LOVE EXPLAINING EVERYTHING TO PEOPLE.

LIKE THAT IS A FREAKING TRACKER JACKER AND IT WILL KILL YOU

AND MOCKINGJAYS

ARE

A MIXTURE OF MOCKINGBIRDS AND JABBERJAYS and then explaining that jabberjays are genetically engineered birds the government created during the uprising (the uprising that STARTED The Games) that can remember and repeat entire conversations. And then that entire thing backfired because people realized jabberjays existed, and began feeding false information.

SO the government let the jabberjays into the wild, expecting them to die out. But the bred with mockingBIRDS and THUS: MOCKINGJAYS.

: D

BOOKS

SO MUCH BETTER THAN MOVIES

UNLESS

You are watching the ASDF movies on YouTube.

BUT ANYWAY.

Now I'm reading that trilogy again.

I must refresh my Hunger Games knowledge.

AND CATCHING FIRE COMES OUT IN NOVEMBER GUYS I CANNOT WAIT FOR THAT EITHER 

...I become overly excited.

For stupid things.

OH SO.

Nolan has fuzz on his face. 

And I thought, hey, maybe, if I rub my chin on his chin, it would feel awesome.

AND GUESS WHAT

IT TOTALLY DID

So we sat there for like five minutes, while I rubbed my chin on his fuzzy one.

WE'RE SO STRANGE.

AND NOW A WORD FROM OUR SPONSOR.

You know, generally- 

"Ha! Sponsor 'cause Hunger Games!"

Ha, I actually didn't think about that!

Anyway.

Generally, it's HER that's the sponsor.

However, I was feeling quite lazy. 

And I'm playing on Roommate Ryan's PS3 and I'm trying to figure out my old PSN account.

And I wanted her to type for me.

Cause I'm lazy.

I also love her.

To pieces.

Bunches.

Etc etc.

Hmm.

My day was basically like any other day!

Except for driving to Greeley and back. 

And class was boring.

SOOOooOooOOo.. Yeah.

That's my day.

But anyway!

This is her blog tonight, so back to her!

I love you alllllllllllllsssssss.

ME AGAIN,

My luxury cat Rajah just ate a corn chip off of the floor.

We don't have corn chips in the house.

I'm confused.

Nox.

PS-

-Taylor & Nolan

 

3/24- Erm.

Hmmmm.
How was today...

Uhhh...

Woke up, stayed at home, went to Taylor's annnnnnndd...

That's really it!

I'm kind of tired, soooo..

Any exciting words babe?

*thinking*

"Not really. I don't even remember what happened today."

Yeah, me neither.

Good night!

-Taylor & Nolan

3/23- Co-Op 4!

"Okay, first thing I want to say is how did Aunt Petunia not get squished when she had sex with Uncle Vernon."

Yes, we are watching Harry Potter.

"The best thing in the world. This is literally my favorite thing in the world-"

I stared at her.

"That's not you!"

I love you.

"You can't spell today."

Shut up. I spell like I want.
Duh.

"If only you could see him type."

Yes, I seem to be having typing troubles.

"Dude what happened to my LEGO version of the Knight Bus? I'm sad."

"Dude you spelled it wrong. It starts with a 'K'"

"The Harry Potter world is the coolest shit ever."

True dat.

"The name's Stan Shunpike."

She's pretty much quoting every five seconds of the movie. I love it.
She's so adorable.

And mine.

ALLLLL MIIIIINNNEEEE BWAHAHAHAHA.

Let's see.. How was our days.

Babe, how was your day?

"It was AWESOME cause I got a snow day! Uh.. And.. We watched Harry Potter."

"We also watched the Hunger Games! Today was, or should I say, yesterday, the 23rd, was the one year anniversary of the movie coming out in theatres, and I celebrated by volunteering! AS TRIBUTE."

I made that joke.
I did.
First.

Me.
I made that-

"No. I win."

No, me-

"No. I win."

No, no.

We need more lemon pledge.

"Pledge is a brand so you capitalize it."

Well thank you dear.

How was MY day?

Let's see.........
Woke up and drove over to Tayyyyylor's house.

"My name is Tallahassee now! Remember?"

Yup! We also watched Zombieland.

"Have you realized that Diagon Alley is Diagonally?"

O_O

Whoa.

Weird.

Hm.
Anyway.

Drove over and hung out with Taylor for a bit, then started to drive down to Lowe's to drop her at work.
However, I slid around the road quite a few times.
So we called and asked-

"There's like 18 feet of snow outside."

So we called and told them that she was going to be late.
But!

They said she didn't have to bother coming in because the weather was so bad.
We stayed at her house and watched the Hunger Games.
At least most of it. Then we drove down to Wal-Mart with her roommate Ryan and came back to her house.
She fell asleep and I drove over to Aaron's and we played some Monster Hunter!

"Talk about my obsession with Harry Potter."
*yawn*

She needs to sleep soon-

"Will you turn off the lamp?"

Yes.

"Thank youuuuu."

You're welcome!

Anyway.. Monster Hunter with Aaron.
I headed back over to her house, and we got some food at King Sooper's, watched Zombieland, and we just started Harry Potter!

I'm going to head home in a little bit as soon as she can get a little more comfortable and sleepy.

So.. Yeah.

Ugh. School starts Monday.
And just like that, my stress level goes up.

Fantastic.
Oh well.

Meh.

I'm going to suck up this time and cuddle with my gorgeous girlfriend before I go home to sleep!

Nighty night.

-Nolan & Taylor

3/22- Co-op Blog #3!

So.
Here we are.

Blogging again.
Watching Captain America.

While Taylor fails at eating lunchables. Cheese everywhere-

"Shut up."

"There is cheese only in my belleh."

Aww you haven't seen -

"Tell them that the German doctor guy who makes him Captain America, he is Caesar Flickerman."

"And tell them how I freaked out when I realized that."

Did I spell that right?

"I don't remember if it has one M or two."

Bzooohhhh!
Blue light!

Turns into a lazer gun.

"You haven't started reading this yet, have you?"

NO, I haven't. I need-

"I'm going to punch your face in the face."

I need to finish the books that I got at the library!
I have half of one left.

Fli-cker-man.
Yup. Spelled it right.

"Aww someone's warm and cozy."

Rajah is warm-

"Don't you dare put that."

Rajah is the one that's warm and cozy.

"Why would you do that? Even put anything like that there? I'm going to kill you. Don't put that. Babe, seriously."

"Oh my god, Tommy Lee Jones is in here!"

Oh yeah, he is!

"Dude, you didn't know who Tommy Lee Jones was? He was in Men in Black!"

I know he was, I was just saying that I forgot that he-

*laughs*

"Awwwww, I have to get you shaved!"

Me or Rajah?

"Both."

Well that's not nice.

"Did he say no one's gotten that- Oh my god."

Is all that fur a tuft?

"This whole thing is a tuft. Poor baby : ( "

Kinda crazy to think that having asthma once kept you out of the army-

"Military."

Military. Kinda weird.

"Ad then they made you Captain America and you won at everything. But then you crashed a ship and died. Just kidding, you don't die. You freeze until like, 2011, or whenever he woke up."

"Oh my god look at my kitty! His paws are all crossed and shit! So cute!"

Hey, good for you!
You're taking your pills without me reminding you.

"Shut up."

Well that's not nice. I thought you loved me : (

"I do love you!"


*Insert a bunch of stuff that happened in maybe 30 seconds, too much to type. Mostly taking pills and such.*

Hmm.
Well, how was our respective days?

"I wanna light a candle. Which one should I light? This one."

I'm glad you asked me, I got to put in my-

"Okay fine, what's your opinion of this one?"

Ooh that smells good.

"Kay good, cause I'm doing it."

"Whoa."

What?

"The wick was like, curled down with, I lit it on fire and it was all 'whooop' hahaha it got an erection!"

That's an inapp-

"Oh my god I should put Caesar Flickerman on one of those MDA shamrocks. Yes."
"I need money to get Rajah groomed."

"What?"
"What?? Stop staring at me like that!"

I just felt like staring at you and seeing what you did. You passed.
Well done.

You're a wizard, Harry.

"Does this mean I got my Hogwarts letter? DOES THIS MEAN I GET TO GO TO HOGWARTS?? Dude I would die. Of excitement of course"

I'm kind of too lazy to write about my actual day.
Hang on, I'll summarize.

Woke up, uh.. What else happened this morning babe?

"Did you turn in your job application?"

Yes.

"Kay good."

Ah yes, I went home and filled out an application, then my parents and I drove-

"Guhuhhh. I thought his guitar strap said friendzone. But it's totally not. It's 'something else I can't read zone.'"
"I hate how when people turn 21 they suddenly turn into alcoholics and can't do anything else. Pisses me off."

Well I'm sorry. I only have one year till 21!

"Are you going to become a drunk? Like everyone else does? Better not. If you do, I'm dumping you."

Noooooo way. I couldn't do that. That's nast-

"Okay good, cause I don't want to leave you."

Awwwwwwww. Baby you and me are stuck like-

"BABY YOU LIGHT UP MY WORLD LIKE NOBODY ELSE. Do you know that song? Cause it's the gayest song ever. By the gayest band ever. They played it at work. Made me want to rip out my eardrums with a drill or something. It's 'You Don't Know You're Beautiful' in case y'all are idiots who didn't know that."

Well, this blog has been eye-opening. Yes? Yes.

We clearly-

"Cheese. Oh my godddddd he's poking my foot with his paw. Like, 'No, I want to sleep touching you!'"

"And zen?"

Anyway.
We explored the subject of cold fusion and hypothesized how the creation of clean renewable energy would change how the world would approach war.

Nah. We just talked about stuff.
Nothing super-exciting though.

Anything else to say my darling?

"He's touching me!

Like hug a Persian kitty?

"Well duh! If you haven't hugged a Persian kitty your life isn't worth anything. To me. I'm sorry, but it's true."

Hm. I guess that's it!

See y'all later internet peoples!

"Y'all?"

Yes, "y'all."

Uh.
Yeah..

I love you babe.

"What?"

I love you.

"I love you too. And I'm sorry. I was Instagram-ing. and he's clawing my foot. And it hurts."

"Make sure you type that and say it was all in monotone.

I did. Have no fear.

"This is the part where Caesar Flickerman dies! Now who's gonna- Oh nooo! Don't shoot him- This is when- Oooh Captain America. Yum. But who's gonna interview all 24 tributes? They're screwed!"

Anyway.
Before anything exciting happens.

Good night!

And have a pleasant tomorrow!

Any closing comments my dear?

"Nope!"

G'night!

3/21- Iron Man again, calling from Halloween Town

REMEMBER

I told you, that I love The Hunger Games, too.

So,

In case you haven't noticed.

It's Taylor again!

I've had a really stressful last couple of days.

I'm about to have another mental breakdown.

I had to move.

Normally, you know, it sucks, but it's not SO BAD.

For me, this move took away almost ALL of the things that made me comfortable.

I was living with my brother. And then, yesterday, he moved to Vegas, where my mom lives. I didn't want to go because of school and the people I do have here and this is the only town I have EVER felt comfortable in.

Not going to lie, I have had second thoughts.

I did, DO, have the choice of moving to Illinois with my dad.

But I am positive that would just boost my anxiety and depression levels sky high.

Well.. Higher than they are now.

I've been anxious for a while now.

It's making me sick.

LITERALLY.

But anyway, the comfort of living with family is gone.

It had to happen eventually, obviously, but I am emotionally unstable and would PREFER to live with family.

Someone who doesn't exactly have a choice (leaving me.)

I do have my little fluffy white Persian kitty, Rajah, though.

AND I HAVE NOLAN.

But still.

I am not completely comfortable.

Not that I was before, entirely.

I'm blabbing.

But whatever.

Now I'm just on edge, and I'm mentally... not really there.

I feel terrible because I keep snapping at people, mainly poor Nolan, because he's the one I'm with all of the time.

I'm scared, but I don't know of what, exactly.

So I moved in yesterday.

With someone that I knew from high school.

And when I say 'knew,' I mean, I saw them, knew their face, but never talked to them.

He seems to be pretty chill, though.

I got a lot of unpacking done, but I still have so much shit to do.

Ugh.

I went back to my old apartment to pick up all my cleaning stuff my grandparents left there yesterday.

I cried hysterically.

I'm going to miss that place.

I mean, I spent a year of my short almost-twenty-year-old-life there.

BLAH.

And I'm worried because my cat is acting weird. There's another cat in the house, so he has to get used to this cat. He hasn't really eaten much, meows at nothing. Just not his normal self.

I'm kind of really attached to my little kitty. I love the fluff ball. If anything ever happened to him, I would cry for weeks.

Or maybe the rest of my life.

...Yes, the rest of my life.

Now I'm just sitting here with Nolan, watching my favourite movie (The Nightmare Before Christmas)

Because this movie always calms me down when I'm in a bad mood.

I've been in love with this movie since I was two.

Obsessed, really.

Wow, I tend to obsess over things, huh.

Oh well. I'm just cool that way.

I'm also obsessed with candles. My entire headboard is COVERED in them, and there's more over there.

Well, guys, I'm going to bed. This stressed lady-person needs sleep.

Nox.

3/20- Moving Day

Helped Taylor move today.

Damn tired.

Good night.

(This blog brought to you by the letter "O")

(Nope. This was actually her idea! G'night).

-Taylor & Nolan

3/19- Monster Hunter and Dragon's Blood!

So!
Today!

Started out fairly normal.
Woke up and went to pick up Taylor. We were planning on...

Actually, I'm not quite sure. I seriously don't remember that much.

It's weird.
Now that I actually HAVE a life, I'm finding it hard to remember what I did all day because I actually DO stuff.

But let's see.

I woke up and picked up Taylor, and we went off to Gamestop!
She needed to return Sims 2, and I picked up Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate!

Hooray!
Finally!

Then we went back to her house...
I don't remember!

But we were at her house most of the day.
Ah! Yes.

We finished cleaning some of her house, and packed up 90% of the stuff that needed to be packed.

I played Monster Hunter in the little spaces that I could, also helping her pack in between my little game sessions.
Eventually, I convinced her to take a nap before going to work.
So we fell asleep watching.. Something. Not sure what .

We woke up and she headed off to work, and I headed home.
I played Monster Hunter for a good hour or so, and she gave me a call because she was allowed to go home early due to the fact that.. Ya know.. She's moving.

So we headed back to her house and continued the packing spree.
We took a few trips from her house to her new house, moving stuff in my car when we could.
We also borrowed her roommate, Ryan, briefly so he could move some stuff too.

She doesn't have that much left!
In fact, she has maybe 2 boxes along with her furniture before she's done.
A lot less than she had previously.

Tomorrow morning, I get to meet her grandparents and borrow my dad's truck to move the rest of her stuff over.

After moving a bunch of stuff, we went out to iHop to celebrate, then Wal-Mart.
So I'm broke this week.
But I'm okay with that!
We also bought a couple cool things.
We got some incense cones of different scents, and a couple little pyramid burner things.
They both smell good! She got "Warm Spice" and I got "Dragon's Blood" because it's fancier.
And it gives off really cool smoke patterns.

She's totally gotten me into the idea of aromatherapy. I figure, if I burn incense when I'm in comfortable situations, or when I'm comfy in my room, then if I smell those again, it'll take me back somewhere happy.

After those errands, we relaxed in bed and watched Step Brothers.
At least, we watched part of it. But she fell asleep, and I headed home.

So I'm here now.
Blogging.
Smelling Dragon's Blood (which smells great, by the way).

I'm going to play a bit of Monster Hunter then head to sleep.

Okay, just head to sleep.

Okay, maybe like 15 minutes.

Good night!

Tomorrow is when we end the "Moving Taylor's Stuff" saga.

-Nolan

3/18- Ikeeeeeeaaaaaaa

Today, I ventured on a quest with my girlfriend and one of her friends to the fabled lands of "Ikea" on a quest to find.. Stuff.

I mean really.
That store is disturbingly huge.
Like its own country. Seriously.

Massive.

Crazy.
Anyway.. My day..

Let's see.
I woke up at about 10:15 or so, because Taylor and I originally planned to leave around 11 or so.
However, she slept in.

I went over to her house about 10:30 or so, and..
Well, I slept in as well. I fell asleep next to her and we just kinda slept another few hours.

But we eventually left for Ikea.
First we picked up her friend, then headed out all together.

I've never been to Ikea before!
But I really liked it.
I could see how going there after making maybe $500 would feel awesome. Buying tons of everything you could ever need for your room.
I hope I can go there after getting a job, maybe furnish my room and make it look awesome.

That's where we spent the majority of our day.
After that, we basically just went back to her house and spent the evening cleaning her apartment!
Which was exciting. And fun. And all of that stuff.

Uh.. Yeah. That's pretty much it!

Ooh!
Ooh!

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate!
I'm getting that tomorrow morning!
Finally!

I pre-ordered it a few days ago, so I'm pretty excited to pick it up in the morning.
Been waiting for a long time.

So I'm getting Taylor around.. 10:30 or so.
Going to go pick up Monster Hunter and return her Sims game.

Eeeee yay.
I'm excited.

Aaron, Ian and I are all going to go monster hunting when we have the time.
So excited.

I think that's it.. I need some sleep. See ya!

-Nolan

3/17- HAY IT'S TAY AGAIN

LUMOS.

Nolan let me blog on his blog again!

I am SO EXCITED!

I have my own blog, that he set up for me, but I have NO clue how to get there.

Oh well.

This is the same thing.

So, last time I blogged on Nolan's blog, I said I would talk about my obsession with Harry Potter.

And when I say obsession, I mean OBSESSION.

Dude

I have two Harry Potter related TATTOOS.

AND I AM GETTING MORE.

I have 'Expecto Patronum'

And

"Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light."

Now if you can tell me who said that quote, you earn fifty points to Gryffindor, because f**k the other Houses.

I wish Harry Potter was real.

And I was a witch.

Dude it would be so cool to be Hermione.

Or Ginny.

Or even Luna.

NOLAN AND I or SOMEONE AND I are FREAKING GOING TO THE WIZARDING WORLD OF HARRY POTTER.

LIKE BEFORE I TURN 21.

SO I HAVE A LITTLE MORE THAN A YEAR.

OR JUST SOMEDAY.

SOON.

WITHIN THE NEXT FIVE YEARS.

DUDE AND WOULDN'T IT BE COOL TO WORK THERE?!

I have to move to Florida and work there, now.

I would die

New life goal.

I'm so kewl.

But seriously, guys, Harry Potter comes up in pretty much all of my conversations with anyone.

Or I reference Harry Potter out of NO WHERE because that's just me.

At work, we're doing those MDA shamrock things.

I put Harry Potter character names on ALL OF THEM.

I could explain to you the entire series

In detail

I'm kind of pathetic.

I love it so much.

I cannot express this.

And from that previous phrase I just typed

I thought of The Hogwarts Express.

Platform 9 3/4.

I should stop.

HONESTLY

I have nothing really interesting to say so I'm just typing what ever is coming to my head,

and I am really tired so it's not very exciting and I apologize,

But if you are still reading this by now, you get another fifty points to Gryffindor, that is, if you got the first fifty points. POSSIBLE ONE HUNDRED POINTS.

YOU COULD WIN THE HOUSE CUP.

DUMBLEDORE COULD GO ALL HEADMASTER AND SHEEIT AND GIVE LAST MINUTE POINTS TO GRYFFINDOR

THEN YOU'D BE TIED WITH SLYTHERIN

THEN YOU COULD NEVILLE LONGBOTTOM

AND GET THOSE LAST TEN POINTS

FOR STANDING UP TO YOUR FRIENDS

AND THEN YOU WIN THE HOUSE CUP AND THEN YEAAHHHHHHHHHH WOOOOO


But TOMORROW

Or I guess,

technically today.

I need a Time Turner.

Nolan and I are going to IKEA.

That place blows my mind.

I could stay there forever.

If you have never been there, you must find your nearest IKEA store and plan a day trip there because it is HUGE and there is SO MUCH stuff.

It's impossible to be there for JUST an hour or two.

I CANNOT WRAP MY HEAD AROUND THE ENORMITY OF THIS STORE.

THEY HAVE ARROWS ON THE FLOOR SO YOU DON'T GET LOST

BUT I BET PEOPLE HAVE GOTTEN LOST

SO MANY DOORS TO NARNIA THERE

I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THE EMPLOYEES DON'T GET LOST IN THERE FOREVER

I AM SURE THEY HAVE LOST PEOPLE IN THERE BEFORE AND THEY NEEDED PROFESSIONAL SEARCH TEAMS WITH DOGS AND STUFF TO FIND THEM.

AND I BET THE EMPLOYEES ALL HAVE TRACKING DEVICES IN THEIR ARMS SO THEY CAN BE FOUND EASILY AND THE COMPANY WOULDN'T BE LIABLE FOR ANYTHING.

Tracking devices reminded me of The Hunger Games.

Another series I am obsessed with and could explain the entire thing to you.

I've read The Hunger Games AT LEAST thirty times.

I was pretty impressed with the movie.

Some of it pissed me off, but they did fairly well.

EXCITED TO SEE CATCHING FIRE EVEN THOUGH THAT BOOK WASN'T AS GOOD.

AND I HATED MOCKINGJAY.

I own a mockingjay pin.

I'm SO COOL

So I have been hospitalized, twice, for uh.

Suicidal things, frankly.

The first time I was in the hospital, I read The Hunger Games, to calm myself while being locked in a tiny hospital unit for a week.

The second time, I watched the movie.

With the six or so other patients on the unit with me.

I was just released from this hospital two weeks ago, actually.

But I found it strangely hilarious, that on a hospital unit full of patients that have either tried to commit suicide, or SERIOUSLY thought about it, watched a movie all about death.

AND THEY ALL LOVED IT.

Haha I just don't get it.

What ever guys,

they were all cool.

Well, I'm pretty sure my Reynaud's is flaring up again.

So goodnight,

My fellow Harry Potter lovers

And if you're not

Then you're just a Muggle.

Nox.

3/16- Of course I'm a photographer. Now take off your pants.

This blog, however, is NOT written by Taylor. This one is written by good ol' me, Batman.

Nah.

Superman.

Nah.

Spiderman.

Nah.

Frank West.

Yes, that sounds about right.

This is Frank West, blogging to you from a mall somewhere.

So how was my day..
Uh..

Right.
Woke up at Taylor's today. Makes sense, considering I went to sleep there as well.

GOD incense smells amazing.
Seriously. I never knew how relaxing something good-smelling could be.

Anyway.
Woke up at Taylor's about.. 10?
No, 9-ish.

She had to go to work today at about 11.
Her shift was 11-8.. Ouch.

So she went off to work and I slept in her bed until about 12 or 1, then headed home.
I got home and stayed there for a few hours, then went to visit her on her break at 4.
Drove down there, we went to Goodwill and explored! Nothing really exciting was there, so we went back and had her eat lunch while we discussed life and its meaning. Or lack thereof.

No, we just sat there and watched her eat a delicious panini.

Uhhhhmmmmm...
Then I came home and took a nice long nap until about 7 or so.
She came over after work, sometime around 8. We had some food, and we drove to her house to pick up a couple things, then drove back to my house. However, she was feeling pretty sick.. So she went home.

I have spent the time playing Call of Duty! I'm having fun. I think Black Ops II is very well done.
I mean, I make fun of Call of Duty all the time.

Same game, new guns. But it's fun.
She was feeling a little sick, so I dropped by about 30 minutes ago to tuck her in.
She's off to sleep.

But I want to stay up a bit longer!
I'm on break!

Finally!
Oh.
And we're going to Ikea on Monday, because I've never been there, and she has a couple things she wants to pick up before she moves.

Well, I'm off to play games and fall asleep.

Night!

-Nolan

3/15- THIS IS IRON MAN.

Greetings, my fellow inhabitants of Earth!

Today, this blog will be led by me, Iron Man.

Haha, JAY-KAY, it's just Taylor.

Nolan decided to allow me to write the blog today. While he colours in MY colouring book.

*sigh*

So right now, I am currently having a spazz attack, because I re-watched the Iron Man 3 trailer, and I am dying to see it.

Not literally, of course.

But literally.

Iron Man is my freaking favourite.

So right now, I am also on Amazon, looking for Iron Man stuff. I must have a poster. And a T-shirt with the arc reactor on it.

Ugh, guys.

Spazzing.

I have a Stark Industries sticker on my car, I'm THAT cool.

I know you're jealous.

Nolan is refusing-

"Choosing not to."

Choosing not to say anything to put in this specific blog.

Probably because he is so into his colouring.

OH SO TODAY, I had to be at work by six in the morning, which is stupid, no one comes in until like eight or nine. But ANYWAY. I had to wake up at four. Well. I never went to sleep. I decided it was too late to go to bed, and if I went to bed, I would never wake up. Plus is was only a four hour shift. And I got to train someone, which always makes me feel all-knowing and powerful. So then I came back home, you know, instead of the usual going back to the moon, and Nolan was still there. Then I fell asleep. Then he left for class.
AND THEN THE BEST PART.
He came back with chocolate.

CHOCOLATE.

OH AND THEN, GUYS. I don't know if anyone cares, or if Nolan ever mentioned my moving to Greeley.

BUT I DON'T HAVE TO ANYMORE. BECAUSE DEAREST LIZZI FOUND ME A PLACE TEN MINUTES FROM MY CURRENT HOME. I CAN STAY IN MY BELOVED TOWN.

In case you are unaware, I am very thrilled about this.

But I am sad, because our dear Horsetooth reservoir is on fire. 

AGAIN.

Last year, we had two fires in Horsetooth.

Apparently, Hades has something against Horsetooth. Which makes no sense, because it's damn gorgeous. 

And apparently there is a town on the bottom. 

I must see it, must see if this is true.

I just had an urge to go visit a graveyard. Right now. I have this weird fascination with graveyards. 

One time, Nolan and I went to a graveyard in the middle of the night. It's supposed to be ridiculously haunted. He wanted to turn back, but I kept dragging him further into the unorganized mess of graves.

I swear to Athena, I saw something that night. We ran away.

But anyway, back to Horsetooth.

There is smoke everywhere, the air is basically just smoke. It's thick enough to see it all over town, thicker the closer you get to the mountains. 

*Snape voice* Obviously. 

So Nolan and I decided to go on a bike ride.

We are

SO

KEWL.

And smart.

But I'm going to wrap it up here, because with my A.D.D., I could go on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on... 

Yeah.

And on. 

Nolan still hasn't said anything. 

Have a fantastic whatever-time-of-day-you-are-reading-this. 

Sincerely, 

Your dearest Iron Man.

JAY-KAY.

I'm just obsessed, okay.

P.S.

Next time Nolan lets me write a blog, I'm going to talk about my obsession with Harry Potter.

This obsession is worse.

I have two Harry Potter tattoos, and I could tell you absolutely anything you need/ want to know about it.

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE.

Way of life, it's mine.

Okay, I'm actually going now.

Nox. 

3/14- Taylor and Nolan's Excellent Blog Post!

"First off, I want to start with, Code Red Mountain Dew is THE BEST SODA EVERRR."

Siddown crackah.

"So today... *laughs* I woke up. Because you woke me up. And also I had a terrible nightmare that I don't really feel like talking about. And then you went to class. And then I don't really remember what happened after that but then eventually at one point I started to pack up my house because I move on Sunday. And then eventually I got bored. Then I started to color a picture of a Unicorn in space and YES, it's actually in a coloring book. *sniff* *looks at me* *looks at blog* *looks back at me* *checks nails* *laughs*

"What, what are you doo" *laughs*
"Nooo you have to put some of your day too" *smack*

Alright. Hang on.
*SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS*

As in we just took sips of our dranks.

Anyway.
*type*

COOPERATE

Let's see.
Today.

I woke up

"Next to me"

Next to you

"Next to your baby"

Yes I did.

"Don't put that."

Anyway. I went to class after I left Taylor's house. And then class happened.
Then I slept through... Half of one and the entire other one because our 'guest speaker' was an old guy who only the first row could hear in an entire classroom. Kinda lame.

Thennnn.. I went

*stomach weird noise*

*laughs*

Stahp laughing.

*Laughs*

*laughs*

"You bruised my finger." *laughs*

Um.
Yeah..

Came home,

"I think your laziness is hot. And then explain how the fourth gear turn situation."

Uh, so we were driving back from King Sooper's-

"Which is where we go all the time when we get bored."

And I-

"Which is often."

I-

"Sorry for interrupting you." *laughs & snorts*

I took the corner in fourth gear cause I was too lazy to shift into first.

*kisses forehead*

Thanks baby.

"Aww."

Uh.
Yeah..

That's-

"We sound so awkward."

It's kind of true. We're a very awkward couple.

"OH WE WENT TO GOODWILL AGAIN AND GOT COOL SHIT."

Yes, we did!

"There was a creepy bra with breast milk stains on it."

Pretty sure it wasn't milk stains, babe.

"That's just what I'm going to say since it was a bra. Either that or it was coffee if they're really skilled."

"My iPod's in your car." *burps*

"OH I never called Lowe's back I probably should have done that." *laughs*

Yeahhhh. Might wanna do that.
Here's my keys, go get your iPod.

"I'm not gonna get it I have to poop! You're going to put that aren't you."

*takes Mountain Dew*

"Don't drink this."

*kisses*

"I love you!"

While she's in the bathroom, I'm going to talk about a lot of exciting stuff!

Ha, joke's on you. I have nothing good to say.
But here's a funny picture(s).

Funny, right?
Well I think they are.

I don't really have much more exciting stuff to say. But I love this girl, she's pretty awesome. And funny.
And weird. And awkward. All like me.

Now, I'm going to go start Steam to play some Call of Duty later.
But I'm going to sit and talk with Taylor a bit more when she comes back, because she livens up my blog quite a bit.

Oooh she bought strawberries at King Sooper's. I'm going to have some when she gets back.

"I feel better."

"Hey."

"Hey."

"OH my god you're still going?"

Yup. I am.
Also, you bought strawberries. Can I have some? Cause you love me?

"What happened to them. Here you go! Let me go get you a fork."

Erhmahgerd I love her.
Food.

"Here is your Sword of Gryffindor."

"So you know those stars on the corner of every page in Harry Potter books? I want to get those tattooed on me, but where?"

*Feeds me strawberry*

Hmm. How about..  Maybe..

"Shoulders, or ankle, or lower stomach side."

Hmm... I kind of like- Gimme a strawberry.
How about.. I kind of like shoulder.

"Left or right?"

How's about.. Left?

"But think about evening it out, so the right one."

Strawberry?

"They're all huge. I can't fit that in your mouth- hehehehehe."

Hmm, well I think that's it for my blog. We've covered a lot of information! All exciting and important.
OBviously .

"Oh and mention that Goodwill shorted me two candles."

Yes, they did.

"Wait, wait."

Yes?

"Votive candles- not normal candles, votive candles."

Yes. They shorted her two VOTIVE candles.

Anything else you want to say babe?

"I'm really full. I need to digest. And play some Mario. But it pisses me off."

I concur.

Today was good.

Adios.

-Taylor & Nolan

"Hug a persian kitty."

3/13- We need more lemon pledge.

Today wasn't anything super, super exciting.
I mean, it was special. Different ways and such.

Let's see...

Started out by waking up Taylor, and saying bye, then dashing off to class to take a History test.
I think I did alright!

I mean, I think I nailed the essay. I was ready for it.

Hmm... After that, I did my normal class routine.
Came home, played Call of Duty for a few hours, then headed out to visit Taylor at work.

SPEAKING of Call of Duty.
I'm 1 Bloodthirsty Medal with a Ballistics Knife away from Gold camo.
Awesome.

Anyway.
I visited Taylor, and we went out to Starbucks to get coffee.

Then.. Interesting stuff.

Long story short, I've had a big self-soul-searching day.
Kind of a wake-up call. I went and got advice from a couple people.

From Aaron, one of the men in my life I look up to. I went to him first.
Basically sobbing my eyes out and asking for help and advice.

He helped more than he probably knows.
It's the stuff I needed to hear, stuff that I took to heart.

Talked to my mom next, she had some good stuff to say as well.

Then after all that, I went over to Taylor's! And we just finished cleaning her room, at least started.

We're packing up her room. And apartment. She's moving relatively soon.. So we're soaking up all the time we can together.

However, I have a couple things that I need to give her. First, I need to give her the CSU shirt I'm actually wearing currently, so she can have her boyfriend's college shirt. Then I need to make our stuffed animal smell like me, by sleeping with it after putting on copious amounts of body wash. Then I need to also make a shirt that she likes smell like me, because it currently smells like someone different, and she'd rather it smell like me, 'cause I'm awesome like that.

Let's see... Now we're sitting, she's staring at me while we watch some 90's cartoons.
We shared some Mac n' Cheese a few seconds ago. Yum.

Good stuffs.

Hmm...
That's pretty much the day.

I'm really cold. I'm going to go curl up with her and be lazy.

And now, here's Taylor with the weather.

IT'S GON RAIN.

Thanks Taylor!

-Nolan & Taylor

3/12- There is a LOTTTT to cover.

But I don't feel like covering it all at once.

Abridged version?

Class was class.

Bike ride with Taylor!
Dairy Queen!

Studying and Mario!

And now I'm over at her house, gonna spend the night and hopefully get some good sleep too.

Adios, g'night.

I'll talk about other stuff later.

Kinda tired.

-Nolan

3/11- Co-op Blog with Taylor!

"Umm.
Well, I don't really know how your day started."

"My day started at 3, which pissed me off, because I wanted to be asleep at 8 or 10, because I have to wake up by 4, but I'm STILL awake."

"I'm still here sitting with Nolan and watching American Pickers when I SHOULD be asleep.
I have to be up in 3 hours. I have a 9 hour shift at work today. Remember to say that."

"Umm, I played Mario 64 for a while, and it's really awesome 'cause I got a bunch of stars already, I mean like right in the childhood, man."

"Oh and I'm really excited 'cause we went to Goodwill and bought cool shit, like this perfume bottle, vintage as shit."

"Umm, I had to give you chapstick. Umm. I... *Laughs* I dunno 'cause I'm afraid you're going to type everything I say. I lit all the candles in my room, and we had fun! Mhmm. And thennnnnnn what else happened today.. Did you mention American Pickers? You did. Okay good. I really want coffee right now. Oh my god, note to self for Nolan, don't test things to see if they're plastic when they're glass. Ahh I love you. And your hair is fancy. Did it hurt when you got your ears pierced?"

No, not really. I mean, it's a little sore at first. The two piercings at once kinda sucked 'cause it was sore in two places right next to each other.

"What made you want to get those?"

I'm not actually sure. I just wanted to, oh, I know. I wanted to even out the look, because my lip was-

"Oh so these were after your lip?"

Yes, they were. I wanted to even it out.

"That's what I did with my tattoos! Which, speaking of tattoos, my new one itches like a bitch and is peeling and gross. I like your facial hair."

Well thank you. That makes me feel fancy. Oh! Like the end of that one Ke$ha song where she says "I like your beard".

"I think you should grow it out and shave it like Seneca Crane's beard. Haha, this is fun!"

Did I spell that right?

"Yeah!"

"I'm just trying to think of random things to say now. Don't put that! You're going to put that there anyway aren't you? I love my cat's flat face."

"You should end it by saying I LOVE YOU *laughs* and Padfoot the- Padfoot the Steg-O-Saurus is awesome."

Well, there you have it, folks. The blog, straight from our mouths.

Oh, about the glass thing.
In Goodwill, we went to the glasswares section, and I found a nifty little cup thing and I thought it was plastic, so I squeezed it.

Yeah. It shattered. Kinda got glass shards in my hand and on the floor.
I then told one of the workers, an older fellow, and he was all concerned and got me some disinfectant and a Band-Aid that-

"Band-Aid that you're still wearing."

Yes, that I'm still wearing.

"I love you so much." *laughs*

Aww, I love you too.

*Kisses*

So, that's my day!
And our day.

"Go hug a Persian kitty!"

Wisdom from my dear girlfriend's mouth.

Well, I'm going to head home and burn incense to smell fancy.

And she's going to go-

*Farts*

"DO NOT PUT THAT THERE! YOU ASSHOLE!" *laughs*

I was GOING to say that she was going to play Mario, but instead she fell on the floor laughing.
But anyway.

Yes, she's going to play Mario 64 and get stars like a boss.

"Hahaha theerjaweaw;er-"

What?

"Hahaha terahe- that was a loud fart."

"I can't breathe. Oh my god."

Well, there ya go!
That's our day.

I'm going to go sleep. I need to.

Adios!

-Taylor & Nolan

3/10- I kind of only used half of the day..

Yeahh so Taylor and I both slept in until about 2 in the afternoon.

Once I was up, I went and helped my dad move various stuffs from the house into the driveway.
Stuff we're selling. Couple desks and a TV.

I then pretty much instantly hopped into my car and drove over to Taylor's!
We hung out the rest of the day.
We basically sat in her room for a bit. We got all ready to go, and headed out!
We dropped by my house so I could get into my actual pants instead of pajama bottoms.

Also, we've started a new thing this month. My family and I, I mean.
I'm being given $20 every Sunday. That's all I get.
I've spent way too much over the past few months, without really trying to..
I feel horrible about it.
But this way, it'll be easier for me, because I'll know just how much I have.

So Taylor and I headed out to Old Town to do some clothes shopping. Originally, we wanted to get a start on our costumes for our "Sailor kissing the nurse" photoshoot with Lizzi.
Buttttttttt the costume store was closed on Sundays.
Pretty much all the shops we wanted to go to were closed. Stupid Sunday.

So we went to Ben & Jerry's to get some ice cream. Yum.

Then we stopped by Thamel Imports, a small Eastern store in Old Town.
We looked at wallets and clothes and such.
I focused on incense. I think that I want to kind of... I don't know how to describe it.
But I want to "get into incense".
It's something really cool and relaxing, and I'd love to learn about it and find various incenses to burn.

Right now I'm smelling "Wind."

Smells amazing. So relaxing.

After Old Town, we did some clothes shopping at Wal-Mart.

Then headed to my house to watch Family Guy and eat our delicious microwave dinners.

More and more, I'm finding it hard to remember exactly what happened at what times during the day.
I mean, I'm not used to actually doing stuff!
And part of it is probably that I'm blogging when I'm pretty much half-asleep, so I can't focus well.

Well.
I think that's it for now.

Oh! We stopped by Best Buy, and she got Super Mario 64 for the DS.
I left it at her house so she can play Mario all day while I'm at class.
She needs fun stuff to do when she's bored!

And she adores that game.
"Babe, babe, babe, I GOT THE STAR!"
She wouldn't leave until she got it. And she did!

I hope she enjoys that game. I love seeing her so excited about something.

Alright, I'm going to go back to smelling my delicious incense then go to sleep.

Hopefully I'll be asleep by 2:35.

Adios!

-Nolan

3/9- Lazy day!

Today was simple.

Hmm..

Basically spent the day at my house being lazy.

After I woke up, I took Taylor to work and... Sat around afterwards.

Honestly, I'm tired and I don't really remember what happened!

So I'm going to go play Street Fighter for a bit.
Ian and Taylor are hanging out at my house and we're watching Netflix

I'm tired.. So bye!

-Nolan

3/8- Sleepover Pt. 3!

Today, I woke up at Taylor's.
Obviously, because I also went to sleep there.

I woke her up and she drove me off to class.
She was barely awake, so it was a quiet ride.

Class.. I don't know. I didn't like it.
It was not a good day class-wise.

I just.. Yeah. I didn't like it.

After class, I walked home. Taylor just started a new set of heavy medication, so she slept really late.
Hey, I got my exercise to walk home.

She was really dizzy and feeling weird, so I also drove her to work.

After I got home, I tried to make pancakes and failed horribly. Not sure why, but I did.
I was very upset about it.

So I played lots of Call of Duty to make up for it!

Then I picked her up from work, and we went to Ihop to share a burger and fries.
Then we went to King Sooper's and got some various snacks, and went back to her house!

Now we're all comfy in our pajamas. She's playing Mario Kart on my 3DS and yelling at Peach and Bowser, and I'm blogging.

Now, off to Call of Duty.

Night!

-Nolan

3/7- Sleepover Pt. 2

Today wasn't exactly anything exciting.

I mean, I got to wake up to Taylor poking my face and saying "Wake up!"
That was kind of cute!

Then we went down to Greeley for her psychiatrist appointment, then back to Fort Collins for me to go to class.

Class was... Class. As usual. Seriously. Nothing changes.

Afterwards, I went out and applied to a couple places by campus, so hopefully I get some good feedback.

Then I went home.
Call of Duty!

Working on the Ballistics Knife and Ballista sniper rifle. Fun stuff.

Annnnnnnd now I'm at Taylor's! We went to Wal-Mart and got some delicious food and such.
I picked up some incense that I'm going to light in my room tomorrow.

So.. Yeah!

We're going to go fall asleep watching Grease.

G'night!

-Nolan

3/6- Wreck It Ralph!

Today wasn't very exciting.

I mean, class, home, Call of Duty... Etc.

But now I'm at Taylor's!
Her brother is out tonight, so I'm sleeping here.

I'm tired.
We're going to go back to watching Wreck It Ralph!

Good night!

-Nolan

3/5- Today was not really that different..

Today was quite stereotypical, actually.

Well, kind of.

I had class today. Speech and Environmental Psychology.
Nothing really new happened in either of those.
It was pretty normal..

After class, Taylor dropped by and we hung out over here for a bit, then went to get her next tattoo!

Well, first iHop. Yumm.
Then King Sooper's to get some groceries.

Then her tattoo!

I like it!
Simplistic. Here's the quote that goes along with it.

"An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward. So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means it's going to launch you into something great. So just focus, and keep aiming."

I'm actually thinking of getting the same thing.
I mean, not to match her.
But because I legitimately like the quote.

Just thinking about it.

I got a price estimate on the tattoo I want. About.. $250.

Ouch.
Well I have time to think about it.

We came back to my house where we sat and watched Family Guy until she left.
That's my day!

Tomorrow,  I get to hang out with Aaron!
Then spend the night at Taylor's house because her brother is going to be gone, and she'd like some company.

Sleepover! Whee!

But anyway.
I gotta sleep.

Good night!

-Nolan

3/4- This boy is officially taken!

Yes, it's true! I'm officially dating Taylor.
I'm quite ecstatic about it.

Ask her! I kept smiling and saying that she was my girlfriend.
I'm pretty excited.

Today, I went to a "family meeting" with her at Mountaincrest. At 9 in the morning.
I'm not used to being awake then!
That's not what I'm used to!

But anyway.
I went with her brother and we had a good old family chat, calling her mom on the phone too.
I think it was good. It's finally started to sink in for her how much people care.
I love seeing her realize this.

I went to class afterwards.
On my off hour, I drove back and picked her up from Mountaincrest and took her home.
It was so good to see her out. Even if it's a short time, it still feels fantastic to get out of there.
I know that feel.

After the rest of my classes, I went and picked her up, and we proceeded with our awesome evening.

First off, we went down to Old Town to get some Starbucks. And dropped by the candy store Rocketfizz.
I LOVE that place. It's so adorable AND SO MUCH SUGAR.
I ended up getting some Icee squeeze candy. It's yummy.
She picked up 4 of these lemonades that are fantastic.
Following the coffee break, we drove down to Cafe Mexicali and got some burritos, which we took home.

We had originally planned to watch a few movies.
But we just ended up watching Family Guy and eating the burritos.
Ah snap, mine is still in the basement.
Someone remind me to get it and put it in the fridge today.

We fell asleep at 12 or so, and woke up at 2 when my mom came home from work.
So I had to wake up a slightly cranky Taylor and convince her to go home.

I finally heard the magic words from her.
That she feels comfortable around herself, that she doesn't worry about... Doing anything harmful.
I love hearing that.

And now I'm listening to some Dave Matthews and filling out a little paper for tomorrow.

Ah it's almost 4.

Well.

Good night!

-Nolan

3/3- Sunday Sunday Sunday!

Well, my weekend is over.
Eh, I'll live.

Today..
Woke up, went to visit Taylor, came home, did some homework, went to visit Taylor, came home, did homework, played Call of Duty, and that's where I am now.

Good news! Taylor is coming home tomorrow!
Now, it was a really short stay.

Mostly because I didn't have to force her to come, or have her wake up in the hospital after overdosing.

Talking to her has been good. She definitely seems like she's ready to be out. She has some new medication and coping methods, and we're setting up a professional therapist for her. She needs some real help, help that I can't necessarily provide. Granted, I can help as a boyfriend would help.
But in terms of therapy and counseling, I can't do much.

So tomorrow, we have grand plans.
Well, tomorrow, I have to go to a "family meeting" at 9 in the morning.
I put quotes, because I'm not really family, and the only actual family that will be there is her brother.
Her parents are separated and live in Vegas and Illinois. So.. Yeah.

But anyway.
I did all my homework for tomorrow today, so I can spend every available minute with her.
I'm not sure on time yet, but I'm picking her up from Mountaincrest. Then we're going to her house so she can shower in a REAL shower and be reunited with her cute little kitty Rajah. Someday I'll find a photo of him and post it.
After that, we're going to Cafe Mexicali to share a delicious burrito, some REAL food.
Then we're off to Barnes and Noble to do some book browsing, then back to my house for the evening.
We're going to watch 21 Jump Street, Nightmare Before Christmas, then a bunch of Family Guy.

I'm pretty excited.

Well.. I'm going to take a shower and get some sleep.
I gotta be up on time.

At 8 this morning?
Weird. Haven't been up that early in a while.

-Nolan

3/2- Sleep!

Today was a sleepy day.

Woke up, visited Taylor and dropped off some pants and such, then went home and slept.

Went back to visit her a second time along with Lizzi, then went home.

Been playing Call of Duty since then.

I am feeling very very sleepy.

Good night!

-Nolan

3/1- Pure exhaustion.

I have never felt this exhausted before.
Unless I have.
Then yes, I have felt this exhausted before.

It's been a very, very busy and intense past 48 hours.
I'm running off of maybe 2 or 3 hours of sleep.

And I had class too.

I don't know how to really explain it..
It's a long confusing story.
I'm going to summarize it with this..

I took Taylor to Mountaincrest, where she is spending some time. And she is safe.
I'm visiting her today a couple times!

Gotta drop off some clothes and take home some to be washed.

Oh, and I put up a post a few hours ago. This one.

I mentioned it on Tumblr, Reddit, and Facebook.

It has around 100 views right now.
Dat's a lot of views.

Apparently, I think good thoughts sometime!

Okay, I'm so sleepy.
I'm off to bed.
Ahhhh yes. My bed. Thank you.

Nighty night.

-Nolan

Abomination? I think not.

Just got called "an abomination" because I'm a Christian who happens to be bisexual.

I am disgusted with the human race right now. However, rather than just be angry at everyone, I'm going to say something important.

Here's some "DO's" and "DONT's" when it comes to approaching me (or any gay//bisexual//transgender) Christian about our sexuality.

-----

1. DON'T throw the Old Testament Law at me, and only quote sections that call me "an abomination" and tell me I'm going to be stoned and executed.

1-a. DO offer your thoughts in a respectful way, giving me verses to look at that don't directly condemn me in 5 seconds.

2. DON'T restrict all of your thoughts and opinions to the Old Testament Law.

2-a. DO look at the New Testament. What Jesus thinks and says about the world is pretty valid and important too.

3. DON'T go into a conversation with me expecting an argument full of angry words and accusations.

3-a. DO talk to me like another human being. Yes, I like both boys and girls. But yes, I am still a human being.

4. DON'T attack me with personal comments and jabs about who I'm dating or who I've dated.

4-a. DO see that my personal life isn't a tool to attack me with.

5. DON'T tell me that I'm not bisexual because you "have never seen me attracted to another man."

5-a. DO think about the fact that I've been unable to truly live openly as someone with an alternative sexuality for 20 years, so don't expect me to go out and get crazy with outward displays of homosexuality.

6. DON'T talk to me like you already consider yourself better than me.

6-a. DO treat me with respect. If you have the patience and interest to have an actual discussion with me about something that is as big as my sexuality, then you need to have the ability to get on my level and treat me with the respect you want me to give you.

7. DON'T become disgusted with me if I don't have the best defenses or replies.

7-a. DO understand that, as someone who was brought up in a private school setting for my entire life until college, I am NOT prepared to defend my own sexuality with the sureness and confidence that you can debate with me. I have about two good sources that I need to finish reading before I can come up with a thoughtful and intelligent response.

8. DON'T expect me to have an answer for everything you say.

8-a. DO realize that I'm not exactly a clever person, and I can't think of a response to every possible question, especially on a subject so touchy as alternative sexualities and their place in the Christian faith.

9. DON'T approach me and immediately compare me to a heterosexual or homosexual stereotype.

9-a. DO see that I'm not the same as everyone else. Just because one gay guy thinks that Adam Lambert is sexy, it doesn't mean the rest of us do. (But I do. Yes. I do. Seriously. Look at those eyes. 10/10).

10. DON'T assume that I am more gay than straight, or vice versa.

10-a. DO understand that I'm still trying to figure out exactly who I am. Sometimes, I will be as flamboyant and fabulous as I damn well please. Other times, I will be the epitome of "one of the guys".

11. DON'T think that I'm close-minded.

11-a. DO see that I am a very understanding person. If you give me thoughtful and intelligent thoughts or points to think on, I will. I won't shut you down if you disagree with me.

And perhaps the biggest one..

12. DON'T, under any circumstances, EVER assume that I am "confused".

12-a. DO think about how I've been brought up. I'm not a very confident person. At all. But out of everything? I am 100% sure that I am not a mistake.

I am not a freak.

I am not "broken".

And I am NOT, I repeat, 

I AM NOT AN ABOMINATION.

Out of every single part of who I am, I'm confident that the fact that, yes,

"I swing both ways."
"I like girls AND boys."

I'm a bisexual guy. And I'm confident that those who love me, those who TRULY love me, be it my God, my friends or my family, they will accept this. If you love me for who I am, then this shouldn't change how we communicate.

All it should do is make you realize that you can say with confidence,

 "I have a bisexual Christian friend."

2/28- Studying!

Today was pretty boring actually.

Classes were classes.
Went over to Taylor's after class ew4gft.

Oh, and the error right there is because Taylor slapped the laptop.
Crazy kids.

We basically just sat around and watched various TV shows while I studied.
After some being lazy, we went out to the hot tub again, and it was pretty awesome.
It was pretty hot. Shocking, right?
It was also quite cold afterwards.

Then we went out to King Sooper's to get some foods!
I bought some chicken and a drink for about $4.50, and she got some lunchables and donuts!

And that's really it. We went back to her house, and we've been sitting there since!
I'm pretty much passing out on her couch tonight.

Ah I have a test tomorrow. I'm so not excited.
Well, I've done studying, so I think I'm almost ready.
I'm going to keep studying until I go.

Ah well.

Adios!

And here's a note from our sponsor.

MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOR.

And from Albus Dumbledore himself: Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

AND: If you're getting attacked by dementors, remember! EXPECTO THE HELL OUT OF THAT PATRONUM.

-Nolan & Taylor

2/27- Na-na-na-na-na! Cheese steak.

These are the songs of the day.

I've had You Make Me Feel stuck in my head all evening.

I had class.. Class.

One of these days, something important is going to happen in class.

BUT TODAY IS NOT THAT DAY.

I think I've used that line before.

Oh well.

After class, I drove home, showered, and went over to Taylor's.

I've made it a goal to get at least 2 hours of studying in every day.

So ideally, every time we hang out, the first 2 hours will be me studying.

Then another hour will be thrown in there at some point.

Today, I went through my notes and read through the chapters that are going to be on my Logic test on Friday.

I'm glad I did that. I feel a lot more prepared.

Tomorrow, I shall continue this trend, and get even more studying done.

I've been going through drumming withdrawals!

It sucks!

My iPod is totally messed up, so it's hard to listen to music on it, let alone drum.

Taylor says that she wants to see me drum some time, so maybe she will.

I mean, HER iPod works, so I might just use hers a couple times.

After we studied, we headed out to Old Town to find some dinner.
We planned on going around Old Town to find food, but it was about 9, so everything was basically closed.
But we went down to Taste of Philly and split a large Cheese Steak and some lemonade.
It was delicious, considering my breakfast was 4 donuts.

Then we went to TCBY to get some ice cream. Because nothing beats the cold like ice cream.
We tend to... Get about 40% ice cream and 60% toppings.
Still delicious!

And we ended the night by going to my house and watching some Family Guy, then we started The Emperor's New Groove, but she heard David Spade's voice and we switched to The Benchwarmers.
Hilarious movie.

That was basically it!
Now I'm listening to the songs I posted up there and smelling...
Sun Splashed Soleado?

Not sure exactly what it is, but my candle smells delicious.
Ohhh it's getting a little strong now. Anyway.
I'm off to finish reading over my notes.

Adios amigos!

-Nolan
