Last night we went to a movie and then to a club, where I proceeded to drink something that made me drunk, and we danced to music that the cool kids listen to, and I closed my eyes and improvised dumb dance steps that I usually perform in my room, and she laughed and I was smiling at the feeling of mild numbness and tipsiness that I’ve never felt, and at the couple who kissed and looked at each other and kissed again and kept bouncing to the beat as they did, and we walked to my car and she joined me inside as I sobered up, and she told me about herself, deep things, sad things; and I’m sure she has happy stories, she just didn’t tell any of them last night.

I woke up this morning rested and I smelled like crap and I looked in the mirror and I felt like I was 22 years old. As the day progressed I started to think about her, and how pretty she is, and how great a time I had, and how I wish we were talking on the phone right now, and why hasn’t she IMed me? Doesn’t she like me?

I thought about her in her gray skirt that went all the way down to her cute shoes which made her taller than usual, and the face she made while she danced (which was a sort of surprised-with-her-mouth-open look); yes, she’s attractive. Then I pictured her as she lay back in my passenger seat, and her profile as she spoke, and last night — I didn’t care if she liked me; I cared abour her.

She ceased to be an idea; she became real to me; we became friends, I think.

I like this… It feels surreal and beautiful… ^_^

Howdy. Glad you had a good time, darlin’ 🙂

“why hasn’t she IMed me? Doesn’t she like me?” I’m so glad that guys feel like that this sometimes too 🙂 I thought none of you lot what were bothered about ‘why hasn’t she rung/im’d/emailed/text me’?

“I looked in the mirror and I felt like I was 22 years old.” Most of us never find that moment where we feel that we are who we are. She’ll IM you, or call. You’re friends, after all. How could she not like you? Take care.

Aren’t you a romantic of sorts. The girl sounds like she’s never farted in her life. I love it.

currently downloading the torrent. i’ll get back to you once it’s done.

the download is actually going to take forever. but it would be neat to talk to you over some sort of chatting device. i only have google talk, however.
