Last night Dean and I rented Antitrust. Becky gave it to us for free, because she loves Dean. It was really good. There were bits of unbelievable stuff, but it presented a good point. The movie was actually about open source software. It said that human knowledge belongs to the world. I was impressed. Ryan Philippe is hot, for the record.

Today we went back to Glidden to see Dean’s family. It was a good day. They’re all very nice to me. His nieces actually warmed up to me today as well. It was neat. There was dinner, and a screaming niece of Dean’s.

I feel like I have all of this stuff to do, but I don’t feel like working on it now that I’m home. Sleep sounds good and maybe a little food or vegging out. I’ll have to see what the future holds for me. Yawn.

Well, yesterday was an interesting day. I went to work and Nancy and I both left at ten. They were cutting payroll and neither one of use wanted to work. I really should have stayed, just because I only had 32 hours this week to begin with and now I’ll get something like 26, but whatever. I gave Mandy a call and there was much hanging out. We went shopping and I got new pants and a new shirt.

I called home later for something and my mom told me that Omar had called. He left an Ames number for me to call back, and I was surprised, because I thought he was in Washington D.C. this summer. I called, and he said that he was having trouble designing this web site backended by a mySQL database. I explained to him two ways to do what he was doing, only one of which worked upon further exploration of the problem. He said he might call back later; so we’ll see if I hear from him today.

I went out to dinner with Dean, and people from work. It was good times. Many funny stories were told.

Afterwards, we went to Dean’s and I fell asleep. I woke up at 1:11 the first time, and I didn’t go home for whatever reason. The next time I woke up it was 2:49. Oops. The only problem is that I was worried that my parents might get worried for whatever reason. I headed home.

When I got home I went to my room, started getting ready for bed, and my dad came in and started talking to me. Blah. He talked about how it feels like I’m awful secretive around them. I don’t think that’s necessarily true. I’ve actually talked to them a good deal the last few weeks, even the last two months. Then he started talking about me not having a girlfriend, etc. It seems that he’s worried that if I don’t start asking women out sometime soon, I’ll have a bad time later in life.

This was all very uncomfortable for me. The only thing I’m secretive about is Dean, and I even tell them about the stuff that we do. I just don’t tell them that we’ve been dating for the last year. I never know what to say about the girl talk, either. I’m clearly not going to start dating any time soon, so I feel like I should just be left to do my own thing. If, in his mind, I’m choosing to be single for the rest of my life, then I feel that he should be respectful of that.
