It was a typical day as I walked home from work at the Pool. Where I worked as a waterslide attendant. My job is to tell people when it safe to go down the slide and to ensure the safety of the sliders. It was a warm night so I had decided to just wear my shorts and bathing suit home. As I was walking through the parking lot, of one of our cityâs malls. This taxi pulls up beside me, and I look to see who it is, and it just so happened to be my x boyfriend who I hadnât seen or heard from in over 2 weeks. He asked if I wanted a lift home I said, "Sure that would be great." So I walked around to the other side of the car and got into the passenger side door. As he was pulling out of the parking lot I feel his hand on my neck and he was massaging it the way he use to when we were going out and boy did that every bring back memories. His hand was then being draped down my back and he slipped his hand in between the straps of my bathing suit at the back and he was rubbing my back. I thought to myself, boy is he ever flirting big time, and heâs making me miss his touch every time he touches me, I've been single now for 4 months but I see him casually every so often and I think that might be the problem right there. I'm not ready to give him up even though I know we have no chance in being together as all we had was a fun and sexual relationship and that was it, no communication what so ever.
Well when he dropped me off at my place, he said, "I'll see you around." The minute I got in the door, I felt lonely, and it had just so happened that my roommate was in Fort St. James and she wouldnât be home till tomorrow night after work. Today would have been one of those days when I really needed someone to talk too because I was kind of confused by my x-boyfriends actions.
I then made myself some supper and went on the Internet to see if I could find someone to talk too and cheer me up because at that moment in time I was feeling like shit. Well I found some of my regular guys that I talk to on there so I was able to explain to them how I was feeling, which didnât really help me at all. I then got talking to Stephan, my ex-boyfriends younger brother, who I had just recently met over the Internet. I asked him if he had is brothers cell phone number, as I need to talk to him about how he made me feel. Which was lonely and I missed his touch. Stephan said " No I don'tâ have his cell phone number but I'm seeing him tonight and I'll tell him your looking for him." "That would great" I said. Well I stayed online for about another half an hour or so and then I went to bed.
Well I didnât get up till around 12 or so as I didnât have to work today till 3. So I got up had a shower and then made myself a coffee drink and sat myself down in front of the computer as usual. Had to check to see who was on line and also my email. I could tell the minute I stepped out of the house it was going to be a long and hot day.
Well the minute I got to work I went into the Custodian room and chatted with Brad, he does the same job I do but only when they are short on guys. Well once I got dressed into my work clothes, tank top, bathing suit and shorts, I headed for the water fountain so I could fill up my bottle as I know I'll need it tonight.
As I walked up the stairs to the top of the waterslide I noticed that some of the steps are becoming lose. Yikes, When I got to the top, Natasha and I discussed how we wanted to go about dividing up the last hour and half so that I wasnât left at the top of the slide for to long before I got a beak and she was off. We decided that I would stay up top for an hour and she would do the change rooms and then we would switch which would give me enough time to get a bathroom break and check the change rooms to see if they are still clean.
Today was Tuesday so they run an aqua fit class at the bottom of the slide. They end up shutting it off for about an hour, which suits me just fine as then I get a break and I can take my time making sure the change rooms are clean. Then when I was done the change rooms I only had an hour left of work, and that goes by pretty fast. It was actually a busy tonight at the pool; we even had a line up for the slide, which is so unusual. I was happy about that, as I'm real people watcher. It was quite hard to get down from the top of the slide because people kept coming up and the lifeguard wasnât paying attention to my signaling to cut off the water. This is a very normal occurrence that they didnât notice me at the top of the slide. Anyway the minute I got down, I went and grabbed something to eat and went into the custodian room to talk with the maintenance guy. Earl, He actually uses to the same job as me. I'd much rather have someone to talk to than sit in the staff room all by myself.
Anyway once 6 p.m. rolled around, I went out on deck and I climbed the waterslide stairs once again. And the turned on the jets so we were in business. As I was sitting at the top of the waterslide I couldnât keep my mind off Neil and will he call me. I hope he does because he really makes me feel special, and I so badly want to please him but I'm so uncertain of what he wants.
The minute they announced on the intercom that the Four Seasons Leisure Pool is now closed for the evening. I signal them to shut the water off and I gather the kick boards and toys that I had to confiscated from the at the top of the slide since theyâre not allowed to take them down the slide and I walked down the stairs. I then said " Good night to the head guards and I made my way to the change room so I could get ready for my walk home. I only live like a half an hour a way so itâs not that bad.
The whole way home I was looking over my shoulder and checking out every taxi that drove by me seeing if it was Neil. I knew he wouldnât be working to night but it was a nice thought that I might see him again and tell him that he made me feel, happy again when I saw him.
When I got home I made myself some supper and once again went on the Internet; I'm certainly addicted if I tell you. I wasnât on inline for long though, but Stephan, Neil's younger brother was on line and I once again asked him of he had is broâs number he said he didnât sorry. He also told me that heâs leaving for work tomorrow to Fort Nelson so he wonât see me for about 6 weeks or so but weâll have to get together when he gets back into town. I told him to have a good trip and talk to him when he returns to Prince George.
Well today was one of those days were I worked an 8 hour shift by myself and I quite enjoyed it actually. I like being able to decide for myself when I need to come down. I would say on those days, I'm 90% of the time up at the top of the waterslide, just where I like to be. Well the shift didnât seem to long which was good, because I hate it when the drag on forever.
I once again walked home from work and when I got home I had supper and then my roommate and I decided to rent a video. So we walked up to the store and rented one. We rented Dirty Dancing. I really like that video and so did my roommate. Once the video was over my roommate headed off to bed as she had an early shift the next day. I said, "See you tomorrow after I get off work" I said and she said" I sure will.
I really enjoy the time I get on the internet, as it helps me relieve stress. and I enjoy meeting new people.
Well that night Stephan came on line so I sent him a message asking how are you? I didnât get a respond so I thought maybe heâd just came on to check messages and left. He then came back on about 2 a.m.
