the sky dumped several tons of the fluffy white stuff all over my car, my house, the yard, the driveway...even with dad's snowblower we were stuck for two days solid in the house. while trying to fight the urge to throw members of my family out the window, i turned to every other 20-something's refuge from the real world: the internet.
and kids, it's been a while since i've had a date. we can be honest about this. it's been a good nine months, and that one not very good, at that. and after my post-valentine's day freak-out, i decided to attempt meeting people again.
how, you ask? by starting up my personal ad again. and by browsing the personal ads of others, and writing to them. so i saw this profile of a guy who lives about 20 minutes away from me. cute, artistic, well-read, and into varied and interesting forms of music. so i wrote to him. he wrote back to me with my full name. i've met him several times in the last five years; he's the roommate of one of the only guys i kept in touch with after highschool.
so the question is: do i ask him to hang out anyway? of course the email i got back from him is all in "friendspeak" now. like, "how is this site working out for you? i have a date tonight, actually. what've you been up to?" i asked him to go play pool sometime. i said i needed people to hang out with. what? it's not a lie; it's a way to insulate myself from inevitable rejection.
parent-teacher conferences start tomorrow. grrr. yes, i love your little darling. yes, he/she is a genius. grr grr grr grr grr.
and i would like to end this entry with:

-Perfect- You're the perfect girlfriend. Which
means you're rare or that you cheated :P You're
the kind of chick that can hang out with your
boyfriend's friends and be silly. You don't
care about presents or about going to fancy
placed. Hell, just hang out. You're just happy
being around your boyfriend.
What Kind of Girlfriend Are You?
