Because Annie will Ignore Me Otherwise
Has it really been several months since my last post?
Really?
Nothing new here. Work and school.
Listening to "Major Tom" by Peter Schilling. In German.
That's about it.

More details you say? Don't think there consequential, and quite frankly boring and dry, but here goes:
I'm working a lot. Like 20 hours a week, but its nice, I can use the money... I work for the University Advancement office at school. Basically, fund raising for the school. I shred a lot of papers; I am an evidence-getter-ridder-ofer.
Taking two classes this Summer. One I am taking now; Economics and Society. The other class will start in July; its called "The History of Science." That should be interesting.
I have been reading an amazing book lately called "The Master and Margarita." Its translated from Russian. Its a social commentary on the hypocrisy of 1930s Soviet culture elite. It involves Satan and all these characters showing up in Moscow and havoc and hilarity ensues.
Got myself a very sweet Meerschaum pipe the other day. Its a "Laughing Bachus" carving... very cool.
And there is this girl I like. More details to come about that as they develop.
So that's about it.
Enough details? :P
By the way, I, you could say, "adore" you as well love!

mmm. i'm working seven without-a-doubt hours a week. sometimes more. i babysit. i want a real job. idk why. i like kids, no uniform, no taxes taken out of my moneys. but... it's not resumé-worthy. you know?
BAH! i am so sick of school! i haven't had a legitimate break since i STARTED college, so i took the summer off after having earned my a.a.
you must let me know how the history of science plays out. it's vague enough to pique my curiosity.
I WANT TO READ THAT.
you always have a new lady friend you're eyeing, you great big man-whore. you have no shame. ;) i love it.
i hope YOU'RE happy now. i don't think i've exchanged that many words with but a few people thus far into the summer.

Yes, I am a man-whore. More of an emotional man-whore... because I usually either 1) get bored 0r 2) don't get that far. Sometimes a little from both. ;)
Besides, this thing has been going on a while with her... I'll explain more if you ever get on chat... or I could always call you or something (don't think I have the number) but it is too long and complicated to recount here... nothing bad, just too lazy to type it all in public.
I will definitely let you know about the class. That's why I signed up for it; it can go a lot of ways. The books for it look interesting and the professor who teaches it is a complete nut... so it'll be a good class methinks, regardless.
READ IT!!!! You'll love it. The humour is dry and very "Russian." It's great! Actually, as it turns out, its the book that inspired both "Love and Destroy" by Franz Ferdniand and "Sympathy for the Devil" by the Rolling Stones. Yeah, its that epic!
And just be happy you have a job... as long as you're in a position that you don't have to deal with customers and their BS, is a good job in my eyes.

BAH! dry humor is a lost art in this country. i am so agitated when i consider american humor- though i do have a special nook in my heart for certain comedians.
is the discourse pretty socratic?
BAHHHH! i hate fb chat, and i hate talking on the phone even more. stop being lazy and just type it all up. besides, if you have to take time to compose something written, chances are that you'll convey your point better than if you were just emotionally vomiting to me over fb chat or the phone.

Toddlers? No thanks! I don't "do" little kids... I don't like teenagers either... I am sensing a pattern. People should have babies, and after around 1 years old, the grow to be 35... That would work well for me.
No, not Socratic, just crazy. Oetter is legally insane. We watched the Presidential debate at school, he was there, some frat guys were saying the would kick the "asses of all the Obama supporters" there, Oetter goes up to them and says: "Oh, you want to kick my ass? Doug Oetter, professor of Geography, don't think I have any of you." Needless to say they scramble. Oetter is crazy.
Yes, dry humour is a lost art in the US. It makes me so sad, especially since I have a dry wit about me and I make jokes and instead of laughs, I get blank stares. Give you an example: Worked at Publix last year, couples comes through my line around 9:30, only cashier there so I had to bag myself. Last two items on their order was a package of chicken breast and a carton of eggs. I put them in the bag together and say "Please excuse to morbid irony." Crickets.

Meeting Amber (the abridged version). So I meet a girl in the dorm laundry room, we end up talking for about 5 hours in there even once our laundry is both done. Turns out she had a class with me. I kind of want to ask her out the next day, she has bf. We become friends. She breaks up with bf about a month later, we still hang out, but by that time I am messing around with other girls. We keep hanging out, find out we have a lot in common, even go out to the bars together and just generally have a good time. Fast forward to last week of school: I realized how much I really like her, but it's finals and we're getting ready to leave, so I don't make a move. She was also kinda sorta talking to this other guy, but that feel apart. Now we talk over the Summer, making a lot of plans to hang out in the Fall. I really want to ask her out, but not sure since we're "friends" but not so close that a date would be out of the question.
That is in a nutshell.

heh. i like him.
good joke! i laughed!
that's like, the same story about every girl you meet, ryan. srsly. you talk, you wanna ask her out, she has a bf, she breaks up with bf, you're a little lost. story of your life, man.

No!!! It's different!
Seriously, I could have asked her out the last week of school but 1) I was broke at the time and 2) it was the last week of school. Besides, she was talking to this guy that I knew was gonna fall apart... and it did. This time it's not a matter of "if" I should ask her out, it's a matter of "how." Don't want to be too strong in case she's not vibing and the friendship gets awkward. What's alos different this time around is that we're both kinda looking for the same kind of relationship...
So yeah, it's not the same kind of story! Okay... maybe it is...
Middle Schoolers scare me. They scared me when I was in middle school, they scare me now...

well, plus the whole being apart for summer thing. that might make your situation a little more difficult.
sounds like you got your work cut out for you. yeah, idk what else to say on that matter.
yeah, they're intolerable. =(

Yeah, summer can put a damper on things. Like, we are talking sporadically (we both work, and I have class on top of that) and, like you, she hates FB-chat. I think its better we don't talk a lot and just do our own thing... like we haven't even made plans for the Fall. Again, no hype, just being "friends" and see what happens in the Fall. I do know she wants to hang out the next time she is in Millyville (she goes back and forth between her hometown and the town our school's at, because she hates hometown). So we might hang out sometime this Summer... it all depends. At least we're keeping communication up and not completely ignoring each other; random texts and wall post, etc seeing how each other is doing. I had friends even over Christmas break who cut off all communication and then expect to pick things right back up in January.
So yeah...
Middle Schoolers suck.
