ok. so i went out last night with friends to a bar and got wicked drunk and had a pseudo birthday party, as i will be at yale on my actual birthday and i wanted an excuse to get attention. and thus, i have new embarassing moments to relate.
so, i kind of have a second grade crush on one of my brother's roommates. he is the kind of person i want to hit in the arm and run away giggling and have him chase me around the school yard trying to flip up my skirt or something. honestly. i don't think i have been this second grade since i was in second grade. but! i had told all my friends about it.
so my brother shows up at the bar last night. the girls and i were already several drinks in, as we had gone out to dinner beforehand. as mike walks up, carrie says "oh are you craig???" and i was about to die. so basically now mike knows i have a crush on his roommate. but! it gets better.
we were talking about the strange boxes that my mom sends me, and i was trying to relate the story how rob (ex boyfriend from sophomore year, frat brother of both mike and craig) got me a ckicken dance elmo doll for christmas one year because he had seen so many of mike's boxes opened and assumed that i had a similar sense of whimsy as my mother. except i said "when i was dating craig..." and emma then replied, "when you were dating who?" and i said "craig, remember, sophomore year?" and of course craig is there by that point and is staring at me with barely concealed amusement (he has a tendency to laugh at me when i'm drunk) as i tried to dig myself out of that hole.
i think my story will be that i was trying to set him up with emma? so i had to tell them stories about him. also, perhaps that i was just really drunk.
in other news i have an interview this week. we will see how that goes. in other news it looks like we are submitting our critique of the world development report 2007 prospectus to the world bank next week. i am excited.
