<that magical little number promises to drive a rift between us

Today is Margaret's 21st birthday. We went to Tumbleweed for dinner, some new one on River Road. It is insane. I couldn't even really believe that this thing existed, especially in that part of town. It's like a ski lodge or something - two floors, balconies, terraces over the river, spiral staircase, fire stove, insane. Anyway, afterwards it was painfully clear how many nights will be now. She's going with some other girls to go clubbing and drinking. And here I am - not knowing what to do. I don't want to be segregated like this. I love that I'm in college early and doing well at it, but I hate the fact that I'll be out of college before I can drink. It makes many social situations very awkward, especially since most everyone that I hang out with is at least 21, if not a few years older. I hate when everyone wants to go to a bar, and I'm holding them back.
In other news, on Friday I went to see
Rocky Horror Show, directed by Gil (Sean's boyfriend). It was at the Kentucky Center, and I really loved it. I'd really been wanting to see it. Sean and I got up in front of all those hundreds of people and did the "Time Warp" dance...and I think we might've been the only ones. It was amazing, except Ramsey didn't come and didn't call us to tell us. I was so furious. Afterwards, I came back to my apartment to get ready for Emily's party, and someone told me that he was roaming around outside with Jason and Elenore, whom he invited, even though I asked him not to invite anyone. Least of all the friends of his whom I don't enjoy. I was angry, and didn't really hang out with him at the party. But I did succeed in being the best mobster ever, complete with cap gun.
Saturday, I went home for Bart's wedding! I really loved their wedding. It was very simple, few bouquets (but the ones that they had were roses), few decorations, simple cake. It helped to just focus on the wedding, instead of all the extras. I didn't enjoy, however, that Joanna and Anne brought their boyfriends. I didn't bring Ramsey because I wanted to be able to see my family, because I miss them so much being down here. But then I barely got to talk to them anyway, because they're busy with their boyfriends. This is why I hate attached couples.
The thing is, Mom tried to get me to bring him. I can't tell my parents that I'll always resist bringin him home to meet my family, because he smokes and drinks too much and is socially inept. As if they don't have enough reasons to dislike him already.
Mom and I made an appearence at Jennifer Rider's wedding, we caught the last part of the wedding mass, but then we went back to Bart's reception.
On Sunday, Michelle and I went to this really neat little coffee shop in Hyde Park, where they have Belgian Waffles on Sunday morning. I went with Mom to an open house for Sister Anne, because she's been in town this week, and then after a little shopping with Mom, we went to a birthday party for Charlie. He's 87 now! I had to leave that early to come back to Louisville, though. I was going to study for my Greek exam, but I remembered that it was open book, so Ramsey came over and we watched "Silence of the Lambs" and went to sleep.
Whew!But I loved every minute.
I do love Ramsey. I don't say it to him - I know that words scares him. I hate that it does. So right now it's enough to just tell him that I really like him, and I guess hope for more from him. That's kind of pathetic, but I'm happy. So it's okay.
