While we waited for Andrew to show up...
Today was a day for the strange. St. Pattty's day celebrations are for the babies. I'm past that, the whole get fucked and wear green thing. I'm Irish, but I'm also Atheist. There really isn't any reason for me to par-take. I mean, if I should have the desire to get shit housed, I don't really think that I'm going to need a holiday to justify it. No one should have to explain to other people why they get fucked. Some exceptions aside.
There's a band playing tonight in the gorge but I just don't care. I have so much homework, but like in highschool, I just don't care. And anyway, today was a day for the strange, like I began out saying.
Todd talked to me today after weeks of intentional silences. It wasn't remotely weird, actually quite the contrary. I mean, I had told him to stay out of my life. Sure I meant it. I had no intention of talking to him, or even acknowledging him again. And wouldn't have been a challenge. I mean, that's what I had been doing. Then he saw me in the sunshine reading and doing nothing by myself. So I guess when he made eye contact with me I had to do something. Smile, smile. The exchange of kind gestures I had mostly forgotten about.
Then we talked a lot, although saying little. What surprised me though was that he got his book and decided to read next to me. Hm.
This doesn't change anything. I just thought it was a noteworthy, unexpected thing that happened in my day.
Then Lisa and I met up with Jose, which is always fun but I can't help but feel a tiny bit awkward because of what Lisa says. I mean, my intuition says she's spot on, but I don't exactly want to believe it. Anyway, Jose is cool.
The only people who would appreciate and notice the strangeness of these events would be britts, illaria, and catie.
yeah. everyone fuck off.
there's more but I won't get into it.
