Cafeteria Menu:
Spaghetti w/Meat Sauce
Italian Green Beans
Side Salad

You know it's going to be a good day when spaghetti is on the menu. Even tho it's the kind with the big fat noodles and greasy meat sauce. There must be only one store in town that sells cafeteria food, cause it seems like every friggin cafeteria from here to high school serves big fat spaghetti noodles. I can just see it: a horde of lunch ladies at the Cafeteria Feed Store lining up to buy 25 lb bags of Fat-Ass-Spaghetti Noodles. Fat spaghetti noodles. That was so 5th grade ago.

On a positive note, there's nothing like a big plateful of comfort food to make you feel even better after a late night romp with your secret lover. You know the one. The one that you hide from your family. Not b/c he's ugly. He's quite attractive, according to all your jealous friends. He's just a bad boy. Grew up on the wrong side of the tracks. Represents everything your father told you to stay away from.

Yep, that's the one. I've been seeing him since about mid-Feb. Since I moved into my own apartment in April, he sleeps over about 2 times a week. He's a manly man. Likes muscle cars and has tattoos. Likes meat and potatoes and thinks guys with highlights are gay. Likes movies with shooting and car chases and naked girls. Hates to talk about his feelings, except when he's drunk. Will never admit that he likes me as much as I like him, but when we are in bed, he holds me like he doesn't ever want to let go.

It's very bitter sweet. Our tumultuous on-again off-again relationship has seen more drama than most ten year marriages. Technically, we haven't slept with anyone else since we've been seeing each other, but to imply to him that we might be becoming more than just "friends", sends him running away like a spooked deer. So, we keep it as friends. But we both know it is much more than that.
