Yay! I talked with Kent!
He didn't totally dish on every single detail like I wanted him to and we only talked for like an hour but it was nice to see and hear from him. ^^
It's too bad he was too exhausted and jet lagged to really be very enthusiastic during the conversation... :(
And he's still planning on watching the Oregon State v. Boise State game... And possibly the UO game that's at 4 am local time for him. Insane! This is my sports/football obsessed brother. :\
But damn, I'm glad I was still awake to answer Kent's call! I was playing the new Harvest Moon game and had been planning on ending it for a while before he called but it just kept on getting its hooks into me and I kept playing one more day after another... Maybe now I can finally go to sleep? It is 8 am after all...
One last thing, Kent asked me to keep his call to me a secret from the parentals, which seems awfully cruel to me seeing as they both have been asking me daily if he had contacted me yet (separately too so I get two questions a day from them). I don't want to lie but I think Kent wants to know how long he could go without calling them before their heads pop off from worry. Seeing as I actually did this once too while I was in NY, I kinda get it. And for the record, it was two weeks and in the end, they even had my cousin on Facebook asking me if I was okay. I think they thought I had been kidnapped or something bad like that. Anyway, it was horrible and I realized it was really a bad idea (even if I still kinda think it was a rather neat experiment) but maybe Kent needs to figure that out for himself... Besides, he still hasn't gotten a phone yet or a phone card and the last time he called home, he did it through a phone booth (I didn't realize people actually still used those things...). Maybe he should wait until he got a phone because that would make calling home a hell of a lot easier...
But should I tell, or should I not? That is the question... :\
Screw this, I'm going to bed.
