Cabin Fever Log

This past weekend I went away with Fitness and his friends to a cabin that belongs to one of his friends fathers. The cabin is aprox 2 hrs away from the city. I jotted down my experience as it went by, or at least tried to.

I arrived last night. It was a quiet night, we played Apples to Apples and they drank beer. I tried to teach Fitness a little salsa, he's got potential, he just has to get comfortable with it. Then we just sat and talked shit for a little while till we decided it was time for bed.

It is 9 of us in this house. They went food shopping for the weekend and the food bill was $500. That's not including the liquor and accessories (like bug spray). Its not that bad considering the amount of people here and how much they eat.

Fitness and I have never poo-ed when we have been together... I guess there is a first time for everything! I was never shy about announcing that I had to take a crap in front of the Ex Fiance. In fact, to get him back at times I have passed gas on his lap. TAKE THAT!

Anyway. We are here now with all of his friends. They are playing beer baseball. Its baseball and the whole time you have to play with a cup full of beer in your hand with the exception of when you are batting. It looks pretty fun but I have sat this one out.

1-i don't drink beer and

2- I'm training for an agility test and my knee has been acting up.

I decided to take it easy on the sports this weekend since I won't give up dancing on the weekdays.

I'm just in my bathing suit on a lawn chair. The area is beautiful. Very peaceful and scenic but all these bugs are about to give me an anxiety attack. I have a insect phobia and it's just really uncomfortable trying to do anything around here. I'm trying not to let it get the best of me.

Being here with his friends has really made me miss mine. His friends are cool but they are very different from my friends. I think I'm getting homesick and I've only been away one day! It doesn't help one bit that my cell phone gets no service up here!

...5 hours later...

It is 7 p.m. And we have not left the house. I am a little upset by this because I had expectations. I was told if the day was nice we were going on a nature hike and also that there was a waterfall nearby. They played beer baseball all afternoon and I stayed in because the amount of bugs outside was just ridiculous. Fitness said it himself that in the 7 yrs he has been coming to this cabin it has never been this bad.

Now they are outside playing beer pong and smoking cigars. Again, they look like they are enjoying themselves but this isn't how I like to spend my time. I find myself looking at the clock wondering when is it time to go to bed so that the time to leave gets closer. Sounds fucked up, and its not that I don't like these people... I think they are the shit. I love to see the bond they have together. It is really strong.

He is out there smoking his cigar knowing that I can't stand smoking. It makes me think about the Ex Fiance, he would never do anything like that. Then I catch myself, it isn't fair of me to do that... Compare situations. No two people are the same and NOBODY is perfect. Fitness hardly ever smokes cigars except on special occasions like weddings and what not. I mean this is no wedding but it is one of his best friends 26th birthday and allllll of his close friends took the weekend off to be here in this cabin.

I brought my good friend COFFEE PATRON to help me out this weekend. I usually don't drink but I had a feeling that I might need to this weekend. I made the mistake of buying a small bottle (that's the only one they had at the liquor store, I should have bought two)... I don't think it'll do enough to tank me but anything to help I'll take!

I never ended up writing after this last paragraph but I drank that small bottle of Patron myself (on the rocks with a little bit of skim milk), got drunk with the birthday boy. He and I had a blast. I had some good sex with Fitness, not the birthday boy. And that was that. All in all the weekend was not too fun for me but I made the best of it. I can't say I would do it again with them.
