Cait + Daniel Date Pt. 8

As usuallll, started out with me waking up at 10, and getting ready.. going in at 12.

I get there at 12, and he's been there for 10 mins.. whichis ok..

It's starting to rain, so he pulls his car around when i get out of my car.. and i say "dude just park, i gotta run in for a few mins"

so he parks and we walk in, ihave to do the following things

-wash my hands
-buy some gum
-put a note in carol's locker.
-Get my coat from the breakroom

So we go in, and daniel's like "HEY!" and he goes over and talks to some random people... and hes like "ok ill meet you at the door when you're done"

so i go about my business and meet him at the door.
We walk out (and its not raining anymore)

I ask him who it was and he said it was "Jodie, my moms best friend. i havent seen her in like 8 months. shes got like.. 5 kids"

we see her drive by on the way out, he waves.

so we get into his car

daniel: "do you wanna get something to eat?"
Cait: "if you want"
Daniel: Nooo if you want
Cait: dont start this again!
Daniel: hehe ok, fine, we will, but YOU have to choose the place!
Cait: Ughh ok, well... theres this one chinese place by big lots where carol gets her chinese at.. we could probably try there....
Daniel: Alrighty. *Drives over there*

and he gives me "All dogs go to heaven" dvd.. which i'd been wanting for a long time!

we get 2 buffets for like 5.19 each.. and a drink for $1 each. Which isnt bad, but its not a big buffet, just a tiny one.

They have REALLY good sugar donuts there.. and if you take the sweet and sour chicken and mix it with the general tso's sauce, its REALLY GOOD.


so we finished there.. we talked about the wall hangings again.. one of which had a same poster as one of the other random chinese places we were at.. otherwise they had some really crappy quality oriental music playing, which sounded really crappy at times, cuz it was like, crackly speakers.

also the 1 wall hanging was like a gong with some strings hanging down.

After that, we left and went up to his house, which was really easy to get to.. but just... 45 mins away.

we talk about Various things on the way up there, i dont really rememebr any thing in particular except, like.. he said he wants to have kids later in life, like 30-35, not early.

We stopped at BP to get a pop on the way there... and it kinda hit me.. I'm thinking "holy crap all this stuff looks so familiar to him... yet very 100% foreign to me, ive never been here...

and i start to get nervous.

At the gas station i get a grape crush and he wants a slushie, but they arent working.. SOO he gets a pop instead.

We get in the car.. i tell daniel im kinda nervous.. he laughs.. we go a little ways to daniels house.

I get out, and its pretty much how i imagined it to be, only driveway was from the opposite side.
a big 2 story white house w/ barns and fields and crap all around... they also had a really big garden.

So we got out and he took me to the barn where his parents were sitting around a small fire thingy with the radio playing.

he showed me to them.. i said hi, they said hi.. He hsowed me the foam his dad is working on..

Not too much happened.. they didnt ask me anything at all.. just asked if we wanted to eat some hotdogs. (no)

Sooo after that awkwardness, we left and he showed me the barns and the big garden. they grew some HUGE pumpkins and sunflowers.. had some squashes and corn, it was really neat, esp since our garden is super small and pitifull, lol

He showed me the cow milking barn... and the foam sculpture out front that his dad made for his mom.

Then his sister got home and she seemed really nice.. (he tells me otherwise) his nephew was with her, and he was whining and crying and carrying on...

we went inside.

He showed me the "murder" bathroom... and the kitchen with all sorts of canned jelly and pickled stuff, living room... a door to the porch (which was locked) a room with a dog in it.. I assume that's Taco the dog.

There was a living room with some couches and tv and some sort of animal in a tank in the corner. Not sure what's in there.


then upstairs is his room, his sisters room, his nephew's room, and another room that he didnt show me (I assume his parents' room)


his nephews room was full of toys, literally.. all over the floor.. not even a bed in there.

his sisters room i didnt see besides what was open in the door.. which was a tv and a bed and a dresser.

His room... smelt amazing. it smelled like him only... more.. hmm.. less condensed? but yeah.

It was extremely messy. had to step over piles of video games, manga, cases, pens, etc. just to get to his bed.. his bed was 2 mattresses thrown on the floor... with some freshly washed dark navy sheets... and a newish pillow without a pillowcase.

In 1 corner is a tall stand with a box and other various things in it.. popping out is a lampshade and a baby blanket..

next to that stand is a bunch of manga, which is somewhat stacked, but not really well at all.


in the corner next to that is a bunch of random crap, but one of those objects is a box with a dragon on top of it.. a really nice cool looking box. Inside is all the letters and stuff i've given Daniel over the months. Then next to that is his bed which is up against the window. His window is an old window hard to open, hard to shut. He doesnt have a curtain, but has a pull down shade. His screen is popped out in the lower right corner. Next to his bed is more dvds, etc. and a closet in that corner. inside the closet is boxes of stuff and his swords! which are cool. most of his video games, tv, and computer is next to that.. and it wraps back around to his door.

Outside is a nice view of the birds.. birdfeeder.. and the sculpture his dad made for his mom.

He gets out his scrapbook and shows me all the things in it... a lot of baby pictures and pictures of him in his childhood.. you can tell that it's him.. Only he looks very... young.. and less bald. He's very cute either way.

He shows me his stuff from school.. mostly really bad report cards.. a few Bs, a couple As.. lots of Ds and 1 F!! A lot of his report cards say he had really bad behavior issues.

Which is strange, because had i not known those were his things, i would have assumed that that child grew up to be a crazed violent man, not my sweet kind loving Daniel O_O

so weird!

There were some amusing things in those books, like his kindergarden teacher put his favorite toy as "Lego" which is hilarious, because only ONE LEGO.. whereas later on when he filled it out himself (as a young child) he put "LEGOS" and i complimented him for having better spelling than his teacher! LOL

He had a lot of books where each kid in the class wrote something about him and drew him a picture.
One kid spelled his name "Damiel" LOLOL and "Daneil" and etc.

another one is where he and another girl drew a book together and made a story. it was rather neat.

It's funny because he put down his favorite thing to do was "Saving girls" LOL!

anyway, it was fun to look at.. he had his old paystubs, zoo tickets and all sorts of things in there.


So after we looked at that, we laid on his bed and watched the birds eat. We saw mostly those yellow finch things.. a blue jay.. and a wood pecker.

then bird watching evolved into mass cuddlefest.. slight ticklefest, as he tickled me and a flailed.. and he held me tight so i couldnt move because he didnt want me to break his random stuff he had lying around, LOL

we talked about crap.. and even some emotional crap... for example..
I dont remember much, but this stands out in my mind, like..

Daniel: I dont know why anyone WOULDNT want to hang out with you, you're SO AWESOME!.



*Other stuff which includes kissing me on the head/cheek*

Cait: is that sculpture out there supposed to have those roots as hearts?
daniel: Yeah, my parents are still very much in love, which is rare cuz the divorce rate is so high.
Cait: yeah..
*more random talking about etc*
Daniel: I know for a fact my parents still have sex
Cait: O_O;.. well i didnt think my parents did, but my dad said the last time he had sex with my mom was the monday before she died.
*more random talking*
Daniel: but thats why theres things like us, being boyfriend/girlfriend, l I mean... dating is about to get to know eachother... which eventually leads to bigger and better things..
*Caits eyes get very wide*
Daniel: Stuff like marriage.. which, theres no really reason to rush that sort of thing, but I'd like to hope that it'll happen sometime.
*Silence for a few seconds*
Cait: *Squeak out* Me too...


So there we have it, ladies and gentlemen.. Daniel hopes to eventually marry me. *Beams with happiness* I dont see anything changing between us, and we talked about it and we dont really see us fighting either.

So after laying there, he starts to stand up, and i push his hair behind his ear and kiss his cheek. (he responds with "You were just waiting to do that!") we brush our hair, as it is very messy, as we pet eachothers hair a lot..
and go downstairs.. we say bye to his mom and dad, i get the "nice to meet you" and thats about it.. I explain to his mom how shy i am, and its weird how i even met daniel.. and that i liked his dads work..

His nephew pooped his pants, which is relatively funny because.. it was liek this

*We go downstairs*
Daniel: im gunna go to the bathroom real quick
*Cait sits on stairs to wait*
*Daniel comes out*
Daniel: Rowan, you need to flush next time, ok buddy?
Rowan: Okay...
Daniel: Did you poop your pats Rowan?
Rowan: ...No uncle danny.
Daniel: Can i check?
Rowan: *Move to other end of the couch* No its ok, you can check later.
Daniel: Let me check, Rowan.
Rowan: Later will be better!
Daniel: he pooped his pants, haha. Ok lets go.
Rowan's mom: *Yelling at Rowan as we leave*

So we get in his car and go to his brother Ty's house.

Ty lives alone in the bottom part of a rented house. He has had a lot of back surgury, so he was all curled up in a big chair.. Hes got a lot of expensive stuff like one of those big flatpanel TVs with lights on the back that change color based upon the mood of the movie on.

We watched "League of extrodinary gentleman" and he showed us his comic books, he has a lot of graded ones and first issues.. also a lot of he-man and x-man action figures... and a bunch of sports cards with pieces of uniforms, balls, etc. lots of nifty stuff.

In the other side of his house is a 3D TV.. with 6 stadium chair recliners.. the glasses cost apparently 200$ each to watch.. its insane.

he seemed pretty nice, but quiet. He didnt really ask me too much, but we do have a bit in common, as we go to the same comic/videogame/etc. store in battle creek.

After 2 1/2 hrs the movie was over.. he showed us a bit of the beginning of "dante's inferno" for PS3..

then we left... and it was funny cuz we had to take some chairs from the "bar" to sit by the TV... I put my chair back and daniel didnt.

Its funny cuz he never puts his chair back at work either! I had to tease him for that.


We drove back to walmart.. talked about crap on the way back.. like deer and people not puting low lights on...


we also talked about how theres only 1 word for love in english, yet 5 for "grilled batter" IE: Pancake, flapjack, griddlecake, etc.

and i say that its hard for me to say it cuz it gets thrown around and looses meaning.. and it doesnt neccisarily convey my feelings.. as they cant be expressed using words. It's love, but DEEPER!


daniel said he had a bad headache.. i felt bad.. i sort of did too.. i also had to pee REALLY BAD.

We got back to walmart he turned the car off and said he wanted to let it rest for a few minutes

So i decided i'd leave in abut 10 mins cuz headache = bad = he need to go home.

So 10 mins passes, he announces his headache is gone.. which is good. Mines not.

So i eventually lay my chair back too and pounce him and we hug a lot... and i eventually hug him in some odd positions that he said were very "Yoga like" as i was laying like horizontally across the car with my head on his stomache and crap.. the stupid middle console was digging like hell into my back, hurt like hell, and didnt help i had to pee like a racehorse, but i enjoyed every second of it because i got to be close to him.

We stayed there for 4 additional hours, lol.

Talked about random crap.. he kept telling me to go to the bathroom.. but i wouldnt.
he also talked about getting his car fixed.. and giving amber $50 that "should" have gone to walmart.. and stuff..

anddd...

Daniel""youre laying on me in a car.. in public!!"
Cait: I dont care!
Daniel: see youre so confident now!!.. Im proud!
Cait: Cuz i want to.. who cares what anyone thinks? if anything, theyre jealous of us!
*more talking about that sort of thing*

We kissed a bit (cheeks + forehead only still), cuddled a lot..

we talked about more random crap...

Such as... He wondered why he fails at talking to me on the 'net.. and its cuz i expect something different than what he delivers. which really isnt his fault or anything...

and how spagettios + saber are all dedicating everything + their mom to eachother..
he said "maybe thats payback for talking about me all the time?"
and i said "well they dedicate RANDOM CRAP.. like.. i dont do like "THIS IS A POEM ABOUT COCKER SPANIELS! WOOF WOOF. ARF. ARF. STUFF WOOF WOOF. I DEDICATE THIS POEM TO MY ETERNAL LOVER DANIEL BECAUSE IS AWESOMESAUCE AND AWESOMEMAPLESYRUP AND HOLY CRAP AMAZING" i dont do stuff like that! lol


Then at 1:20, i got around to go, found my wallet + cellphone, put my sandals back on ( i took them off to put my feet up on his car) Carol texted me asking where i was (Daniels car!) and to call her when i got home (I will)

I lean over once more and hug daniel and with confidence i say "I love you sooo much!" he responds somewhat surprised with "I love you too!" he wasnt expecting me to say it at all! hehe.


I got in the car and had the most painfull drive home ever. I had to pee SOOO BAD.. and my headache got SO MUCH WORSE..

so i got home, peed, got meds, called carol, had a burrito, and went home!

a very successfull date.

I am happy
he is happy.

and someday i shall be his wifey... and he will be my wifey. :3
