That's right. It finally happened. The Sun is finally shining on me.
After having been crapped on for the past few days, I finally had an amazing day.
(this is written in much excitement and not so much with professionalism. thus the "OMG"s.)
We had a grazing potluck at work so I made my mom's famous spicy crackers. The sun was shining and felt wonderful on my face. We were slow so Agnieszka and I went out to Wholesale and found a sweet BMW and Tacoma. Oh and a Dodge Ram 3500 manual. Then we got into a S2000 and when I locked it up, I set off the Viper alarm. On the way back we saw a Shelby Cobra and checked it out. Then I went out on the front lot and played with a 09 Corvette. That machine is a beast. It shook the whole time I was sitting in it. It kept calling to me to take it out and drive til I couldn't see a human for miles around. Then I played with the 10 Camero in the showroom. Oh and I got to play with a GTO. I would totally buy one that was an automatic too. When you shift it from P to D, the back end sets down. It is the coolest feeling. After that, I just had a few customers that were really nice and everything seemed to be going so well.
Then I text a friend, Ben, and we went on a motorcycle ride after I got off work. He has a really cool bike and we had been talking about going out to do something but never followed through with it. So yesterday I wanted to end the day on a good note so I asked him if we could go out. He came over and picked me up. And we went cruisin. It was amazing. He took me around Riverside Park. OMG! They have the most gorgeous homes. Then we grabbed some coffee and the storm started to move in so we flew back to his place at the Garvey Center. Sat and talked at his place for a while then he took me on a tour. When we got to the elevators and the door finally opened, this guy and girl were in there and she had puked all over. We took the stairs. I got to see everything. It is an amazing place to live. One of his walls is all glass and I couldn't help but stand there for 10 minutes just watching. When the storm calmed down, we went out on the 6th floor deck and walked around. Then he took me up to the Penthouse Lounge. OMG. I about died. He asked what I was thinking and I told him I would never leave this room. Ever. It was the most amazing room I had ever been in. And he has access to it 24/7. I am so jealous. We sat up there for a few more hours and talked.
He kept asking if he needed to take me home and I felt bad because I didn't want to leave. Sitting in that room made me remember why I wanted to fly. Seeing the lights of the city in rows and knowing that by now I would be halfway to my license was something I hadn't planed on dealing with last night. I didn't want to leave. But he was getting tired. I really did feel bad. But I couldn't help but be selfish.
I really needed that. I didn't realize how much it meant to me. I couldn't thank him enough. I don't know if he'll ever understand what he did for me last night. I've never had a friend go out of his way to make sure that I was having a good time. Everything we did last night was for me. I know this sounds crazy because I do have some really great friends that do drop everything to take care of me or make sure that I am happy but this was different. Ben doesn't even know me. He dated my best friend and roommate. I'm suppose to hate him for doing what he did to her. But in all honesty, he broke up with her because of his beliefs that she didn't see important. He stayed true to himself and I admire that. I wanted to hear his side of the story. He deserved that much. He was concerned about my health the whole time. He would ask how I was feeling. I was floored by how genuine he was being. He honestly, truly was worried. I don't understand.
I can tell he still likes my best friend. I wish they had worked out. He really is a good guy. But she will never see him how he deserves to be seen. She doesn't deserved him. And I'm not sure if she will ever realize just how great of a guy he is and what she passed on. She's young, she has a lot of learning to do. I hope that this coming year I will be able to show her. She is the type of girl to go back to ex-boyfriends. In a way I think she knows what she gave up on in Ben, because I don't think she will ever go back to him. Not because she hates him, like she says she does, but because she's scared that he really was the one and she likes being young and wild right now. I think there is more than meets the eye when it comes to her reasoning.
Anyways, to finally end this blog, I love my best friend. She has been such a blessing to me and my life these past few months. I couldn't have gone through most of these crazy happenings without her. As for Ben, I want to be friends. I hope it works so that we can be friends without the tension from a previous broken relationship lingering around. We'll see I guess.
(Being in that Penthouse lounge also made me realize that in the long run, I really was made to live in a big city. Or at least keep pursuing my pilot's license.)
