Day 141
Today I need to build a birdhouse.
The day starts with me wearing a corset for Mike. I wear it under my clothes as I walk downtown to meet him. It’s a very bad idea.
The corset looks bad under my clothes. It’s poorly-made and itchy and the wires keep poking into me.
Mike seems to like it, though, so that’s good.
We spend some time together, just hanging out and being so happy to see each other, but before he leaves, the conversation gets around to he’s planning to go to college farther away when he’s done with community college.
I get upset. I don’t even know why, I just don’t want him to leave even if it is a while away.
It brings up a whole bunch of other problems—that I just don’t feel like I’m important to him and I don’t think he even loves me.
Of course this is all just me being paranoid, but it doesn’t help that he has to leave and can’t reassure me.
But he does help me with one thing—I tell him I can’t possibly build a birdhouse today, so he gives me a new task. Walk only on the white lines of a crosswalk whenever I cross the street. I’ll do this, hopefully the Book will accept it as an alternate task.
I have a class, and then when I’m done, Mike’s back. I’m happy that I get to talk to him and just get all my worries out and cry on his shoulder. And he does make me feel better.
Then, my dad shows up at my dorm and I go home for the weekend. (It’s been a crazy busy day, hasn’t it? Classes and Mike and going home.)
Once home, I go to pick up my new glasses. They are awesome.

Mike only walks on the white lines of a crosswalk pretty much all the time.
idk why, but whatever. it's one of his idiosyncrasies I guess.
