???GRAPEFRUIT

The most prominent event of the Winter Bash tonight was the guy I danced with, or rather, that he smelled strongly of grapefruit.

Probably by the time you read this, I'll have already WTFed about this to you over AIM or the like, but seriously. It was weird; I don't know how he pulled it off. They don't sell grapefruit ANYWHERE on-campus, and I've never seen it on my visits to Chinatown, and if that was cologne what was the brewer thinking?

is grinding still grinding if there's no friction involved? these guys, they just pendulum their knees endlessly. like clockwork. Literally. it was so tediously exhausting that I went off on my own for a break, and ended up turning down a wee throng of young men that actually looked cute.

I had nothing but pretzels, grapefruit and meatball-shaped indian boys all night. oh i sound like a bitch. i'm just booing a missed opportunity w/o being that interested in the opportunity in the first place.

WAIT I think doctor_duriel just solved it: FRESCA. Grapefruit-flavored diet soda. it's the only grapefruit thing he or I have encountered in a cumulative decade of boston residence. clearly the fellow drank so much of it he started sweating it out of his pores.

anyway, the only other note of interest was the reason I event WENT to the bash: that gutless bitch who'd accused my roommate of stalking her a few months ago had gotten an invite by the same person who -- somewhat thoughtlessly -- invited my roommate too. Moral support, yeah? voeltzwagon remarked at one point that I made the bash sound like gang warfare. as ashchan put it, "Women go in pairs for everything because we're terrified we'll be jumped by other women." obviously todd's never been a teenaged girl before.

anyway, about said gutless bitch: amazingly bo-ring. she pretended nothing had ever come between them, 32-tooth smiles and friendly as ever. she even talked to my roommate about the new guy she was interested in, talked to me about the new guy she was interested in, couldn't shut up about the new guy she was interested in. WHAT did I expect; her non-confrontational conformist attitude started the stupid breakup in the first place.

no, grapefruit was definitely the headline tonight

means, not a bad night. first school function i've attended, and not bad.

i had 1 beer at an intermediate stop before we went to the gym which didn't do much for me, but once we got to the gym -- oh that was pretty. i loved the lights. with lasers, you know, a disco ball, ambient light, spotlights, and those epileptic white flashes, all coralled in by a massive suspended ring of white canvas. reminds me of NORTHERN LIGHTS. i bet i was a polar bear in the past life, would explain a lot of other things too. the lethargy, the metabolism, the pallor, the indifference to eating animals intact.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR

winter bash, grapefruit, party
