Saturday

Last home games were today. Okay, game. Singular. CMU never showed up to play, which we think is a win in our favor and we think means we get to go to playoffs next weekend. Slippery Rock was a great game. They actually played okay today, but we were better. We shut them out 12-0. It was awesome. I had seven saves in the game. Nothing that they shot on me went in - that's like the best feeling ever - to earn that shutout. Stephen came, of course, at 9:00 in the morning, to cheer us on. 

Also today I went to lunch with Stephen's parents, which was cool. They were really easy to talk to. I like them both very much and Stephen says that they both "absolutely loved" me, so I must be doing something right. His dad is really funny (so is his mom, actually), but what's so interesting to me is that they are such outgoing, dynamic people and I'm not sure how two such boisterous people can have a son who is so shy. I always think it's interesting to meet peoples' families because I think people make more sense when you get to see where they come from (not necessarily their actual hometown - although that helps). 

So it's been a good Saturday so far. I'm at work now, and I need to get some studying done (I have a Phonetics test this Wednesday) before I go to hang out with Stephen for a while afterward.

So, a couple of things.

First, I really want to meet Stephen. I don't know where he lives, but I'll be home for a week in May and three in August, so can we pleeeease road trip to see him? I'll have a car!

Secondly, I miss you. And I realized yesterday that I incredibly, incredibly value our relationship. Like, so so much. I love that I can get online and completely unload my thoughts on myself, completely secretly, but still know that someone's out there reading them and at least providing guidance in a small way. Love that. And you're terrific and I really value your opinion and... I want you to meet josh.

Thirdly, I hope you're feeling better. I want to talk to you about life and lacrosse and school and everything.

Fourthly, I miss you and love you.
