From Virtual to Actual Poking

Jan 14, 2005 06:54

I woke up at exactly noon today and was panicking because I thought it was midnight. But then I realized that it wasn't. I went back to sleep. I kept forcing myself back to sleep till it was 4:15 PM. There was a little snow on the ground when I got up!

I told Eric about hot Facebook guy today. He said everyone from California looked like that.

I spent a long time talking to Joanne online tonight. I read one of her assignments and commented on it, but not very much because Joanne is an awesome writer! I miss her.

One of the guys I poked last night on Facebook poked me back! Also, hot Facebook guy's friend sent me a message saying that hot Facebook guy said she'd be meeting me soon. I love it!

I played my guitar more today. We used to be such good friends. Then we became strangers. I'm trying to get to know him again. I want to court him and woo him. But he moves slowly (just like me).

I knit my DNA scarf today while listening to the album, 'Court and Spark,' by Joni Mitchell. It was the first time I've listened to it all the way through. I love it. The first song, which has the same name of the album, made me feel really excited about dating. I got a lot more done on the scarf. Angelina was standing up, so I got her out to play during the album. I think she liked it, too.

A simple trip to Wendi's took longer than it should have due to the snow and ice that seemed to be growing on only my windshield and back glass.

Michaela came over to help me get ready for Soco. She was also late because of all the ice and snow on her car. I felt for her.

Soco was really fun tonight. Fun and stressful. I saw a lot of people I know. I always do. But the weird thing was that two of the guys I had poked on Facebook where there! I noticed one guy first, then the other. The first guy was the one who poked me back today and seemed interested in me, but I got nervous and walked away from him. I was way too shy to talk to the other guy more than like three sentences. Then I talked to his girl pal about him a few times later. Turns out the second guy was really shy, too. I would have talked to him, but the first guy was always around him, so I would have felt like a player. Then, when he was finally alone, Anthony, who makes out with everyone (even me a couple of times), was all over him. I thought Anthony would creep him out. At one point I almost went to talk to him anyway, but they were swapping numbers at that point. It was time to go at that point, anyhow.

Michaela and I went to Country Kitchen. I thought it would be nice for us just to sit and talk. But then, Will and Kat came in. I invited them to sit with us once I saw them. I felt bad after that because I did want to just talk to Michaela. But I also couldn't not invite Will and Kat to sit with us.

Michaela came in for a while with me after Soco. Micheal called while she was here, but I didn't get to my phone in time. I called him back because I knew he should be sleeping soon. Michaela left while I was talking to him.

I got in the tub while talking to Micheal, not knowing that we'd end up talking three hours. I was a prune by the time I got out of the tub. I really enjoyed talking to Micheal. I could have talked longer, but my body couldn't take the water that long. I also really wanted to scrub the Soco from my body.

When I got out, I got sucked into Facebook. I messaged the guys from Soco and asked them if they wanted to do coffee. I hope the second guy responds. But then the first guy was cute, too. I would be happy if either of them responded. Or if they both responded. And even if they don't, I still have Saturday with Ryan.

I like the way I now realize there are other guys and that each one I meet is not the last one on earth.

I'm grateful for:

1. AIM so I can talk to my Joanne-ie-poo.
2. Facebook, for all the men.
3. My guitar and all the pleasure he gives me (growl).
4. Joni Mitchell for the music.
5. Angelina for being the perfect roommate.
6. Eyeliner for making me the perfect amount of trashy.
7. Michaela's luvin' on the dance floor.
8. Everyone making me feel at home at Soco.
9. Michaela buying my food tonight.
10. Micheal calling me when I forget to call him.
11. Knowing that I can sleep as late as I want tomorrow.
12. Knowing that Michaela will help me prepare for meeting hot Facebook guy.
13. Michaela giving me ibuprofen when I needed it.
14. Hot Facebook guy telling his friend she was going to meet me.
15. Blackberries.
16. My bed because I'm now going to go crash in it!f
