who the hell is this guy? get him outta here....
i will stand by this theory and swear this is how it happens to me: that as soon as i make the decision to be single and not date anyone for awhile, guys come from out of thin air, without any provoking, and proceed to hit on me. and that seriously hasn't ever happened to me when i've actually wanted to date someone.
so why me? listen, boys, i'm sure there are other girls all around me that wouldn't mind your cheesy pickup lines and awkward small talk. and i'm sure you're all really nice guys, but you couldn't have chosen a worse time to talk to me.
2 separate incidents in the same week? get these guys outta here!
WEDNESDAY NIGHT--rolling rocks and laughing with friends (and making eyes at the boy i mentioned in my last entry). my possible ride home was talking to her ex bf, and i decided i should just walk home. i didn't get more than half a block away when some guy ran up from behind me and stared me in the face from about 3 inches away. then he ran to about 10 feet in front of me and just looked me up and down. i said "umm can i help you?" and he started calling me by some other girl's name and swearing he thought i was this girl he knew from 3 or 4 years ago. HA! then he asked if he could walk me home. i sized this guy up right away, and decided i could beat the shit out of him if necessary. with that in mind, i figured it was probably better to walk home with him than to walk past sketchy prospect park by myself. so i let him walk me home. i played along with his story the whole time, pretending like i really believed that he thought i was this other girl. i kept saying "wow, that's sooo weird, i wish you had a picture of her." then when we got to my house he said "alright....i'm coming in!!!" and i was like, "uhh....okay?" so we stood in my living room and talked about random shit for way too long. and then i told him i was tired so he left. after he was gone my roommate said "so who was that?" and i replied, "i have noooo idea."
SAT. NIGHT-- wesley willis show...was craziness and lasted way too long. my feet hurt really bad because i was wearing boots with high heels. we stood the entire time between 8:30 and 12:30. some guy was trying to squeeze thru the crowd and fell into me...he said "i'm sorry" but then left his arm against my back for waaay too long to be accidental. then 5 minutes later he came back and introduced himself. all i could think to myself was "aw fuck!!$%&*" and introduced myself back. now, being the nice girl i am (too nice), i found myself stuck there making small talk with him for awhile. i didn't want to be rude to him because he was probably scared shitless that he was standing there talking to me (he had that look on his face). are you listening to this? there i was not wanting to talk to him at all, yet looking out for HIS feelings for some reason. i kept trying to think of ways to get rid of him (i didn't want a repeat of wednesday night where he follows me home). mariel and katy were giggling and poking me because they had gotten hit on by guys at the bar earlier so they thought it was wicked funny that this guy was talking to me. inside i kept thinking "somebody save me!!" like i wanted one of my friends to find an excuse to pull me away....but they didn't know to do that because i wasnt giving off any signs that i minded talking to this guy. finally i decided that smoking might make him leave. and if he still didn't leave after i started smoking, i was going to blow the smoke in his face as i talked to him. luckily he finally made his exit. i was close to tears after he left. it seemed so unfair because i was minding my own business, keeping to myself...not even paying attention to anyone but my friends and the bands onstage. yet somehow i still had to make awkward small talk with a stranger when i didn't want to. and i'm too nice to tell people to go away.
arrrgh, if this continues to happen to me, i'm going to start using my man/transvestite voice to introduce myself. any of you that have heard me do that voice before could probably understand why that's my best option at this point.
