Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring

alright, so i haven't blogged in a while due to the massive amounts of time spent at the new job and trying to see my boyfriend. For a quick overview of the past few months of my life, it breaks down like this. Jon goes to work (for the next 5 days) before I get home from work, he gets home and I'm sleeping, I get up and meander through the apartment drinking my coffee and getting ready for work, I wake him up with a kiss good-bye and head off to work. On my day off, he gets home from work at noon and sleeps until 6, and gets up to get ready for work and leaves at 8. BLAH.

Anyways, so I have this friend that I used to hang out with all the time when I was dating my ex. We never really stopped talking or hanging out, but we definately didn't as much after the split up. Now, he and I have gotten close again and I found the friendship refreshing due to the fact that you really do find out who your true friends are when they decide to chose sides or not. The majority of my friends did not chose at all, they just stopped talking to us both. Davie, decided that he was going to stick to his original thoughts, we were friends first, and will be friends after. Nice.
All this concidered, he drives me f-ing crazy! The man calls me 6-7 times a day, about 3 hours apart and gets mad if I don't call him back right away.

"Dude, I have a job and I can't talk all the time."
"well you could at least call me back."
"I did"
"at midnight"
"that's when I got out of work"
"well, I'm mad at you"
"can you be mad at me when i didn't work 12 hours"
"no, i'm mad at you now"
"can we talk about this tomorrow"
"no, we're talking about it now"
"ok, you talk. i'm sleeping"
"you're a bitch"
"you'll get over it"
"fine call me tomorrow"
"ok, bye"
"i'm serious, you'd better call me, you do'nt know how mad i am at you"
"ok, bye"
"you'd better not just blow me off, i'm really seriously mad at you"
"ok, bye"
"i'm so mad i'm thinking about not hanging out with you anymore"
"i'm sorry"
"no you're not"
"i will be tomorrow, i'm too tired right now"
"ok, bye"

and the sad part is I have this conversation with him twice a week. I love the kid, but good god is he annoying. He's like a needy girlfriend who won't go away. I've never had to break up with a friend, how exactly do i go about this?

you drive me nuts, please stop calling so much. That just seems kind of cold.

Punch him in the balls. That should do the trick.

1. He'll stop calling you all the time because you punched him in the junk.

2. He'll remember he's a man, not some whinny fucking high school sweetheart.

if you have a cell phone you turn it off when you get home from work and ignore it. the power of a phone is diminished drastically when it's off.

you explain to him, in person, that youhave a job and you're sorry if that makes him feel insecure

and if that doesn't work you give up and avoid...

lsd's solution is more permanent

I just don't answer he leaves voicemail, i ignore it, he leaves more.

Needy people are such a pain in the ass.
