Crunch time and a significant update

Sorry for the dearth of posts. One more week of class, then final exams. I have two term papers to write. I doubt I will post often between now and the end of the month.

However, there is an important update concerning Maison Java that I though I should pass on. My darling gay boy C has moved back home. Home is, of course, here at Maison Java. He asked about it on Friday, I said I'd talk to Superman. He came over for dinner Friday evening, and it was so comfortable having him here. Superman agreed, both about how natural it was having him here and about allowing him to move back home for a while.

The young man (boy?) has gotten himself into a pickle again. He can do some stoopid stuff sometimes. Since S broke up with him last December he's been rattling around with little direction. He was working full time for a while, and withdrew from school as a result. Then he quit his job (yeah, I know. I told him, too) and can't pay his rent. He has registered for the summer semester at school, and is on track to graduate in December. The plan as of now is for him to stay here over the summer, then move into the dorms in September.

Sproing thinks it's a grand idea. He and C have had some good conversations, mostly about cars. It's way over C's head, but Sproing is patient with him. I talked to Twitch about it on the phone this afternoon, and he thinks it's cool. Light is the only one I haven't talked to yet, and the poor girl is going to end up reading about it on the blog instead of hearing it from her darling mother first-hand. Woe is me. OK, I also haven't told Diva, but since she's cooling her heels in the mental ward I don't care what she thinks about it. Especially since C is using Diva's room. Eh.

I think I'll not tell my parents. I sent an email to my dad today, and may have mentioned it. But I'll let it come up in conversation eventually with my Mama. She's gonna give me that "Oh, Java!" whine, and I don't want to hear it.

Maybe having a little gay boy around the house is just what you need. (I hope...)

Do you still have a copy of that agreement around? He may need a refresher before he moves in. Take care not to take on too much, sweetie.

Two cents .... I'm very proud of C for making it the 4.5 months on his own.

I'm very proud to call you cyber friends for having the heart to take him in again (amongst other reasons)

For C : Come on buddy don't make them regret this. Clean up after yourself AND others. The back door area Will not be an ash tray!

Hugs Mimi

Java, I salute you!

You're a great understanding mother, not only to your own but to others as well.
