i noticed him on the first day of class, mostly because he was so tall with this head of the most gorgeous honey colored locks. and then he looked back to listen to me talk about god knows what and smiled. i've stared at the back of his head for the past two weeks until somehow we were thrown together. he showed up at the meeting i was running. and we leaned across the conference table and smiled warm and shook hands and talked about how scary our class was. and that day, after class, we stood around chatting a bit and he walked me out and up the stairs and we stood and chatted by the door and i was getting more and more anxious to see him this weekend so i told him about a benefit concert in the most awkward manner possible:

um, so there's this concert, a benefit concert that you should go to.
oh, cool! where is it?
um, at this cafe [proceed to rip a flier out of a friend's hand and place it in his]
and well, um, i'm going to be there and maybe you could be there too and then we'll be there...

you know how it goes. i didn't think he'd show up. but he did. i was standing solo on the curb outside calling people so i didn't look like too much of a loner and then all of sudden he's standing on the curb next to me. and we hug and go inside and i meet some of his friends and he meets some of mine and i get him to dance in this goofy way and we eat candy. some of my pals showed up, the boy who doesn't know what he wants among them. he stood outside and waved through the window. so there i was, dancing with a potential crush, listening to an intense former crush play guitar, looking at my current crush staring at me through a window. yeah. it was...interesting. my life is constantly doing this to me. so he saw me dancing with this other boy and i don't know what happened but he left without saying goodbye. mind you, this was the first time i've seen him since going to the movies. of course.

so my friends played and were really good and we sat on this nasty old couch and just talked and talked for a couple hours and then i took him home. and he's really really nice and really really tall and if this is the only thing i can say about him, what does that say about the situation? it's something i still have to think about.

i guess, if anything, it was just nice to see that i can still make friends.

this girl in one of my other classes also came up to me at school and said we should be friends because she like writes down things i say in class in her notebook. i don't know how i feel about that but she seems like a cool person. plus she has a lazy eye and i've never had a friend with a lazy eye.

and my family is in town today. i get to spend the whole day with them. i'm really not sure how i feel about that...
