A Stranger is just a friend you haven't met yet

I came home smelling lightly of soap and mint today.

Last night was a party at Sam's place, followed (in theory) by ghost hunting and maybe seeing Alison at Rick's Place.
Ghost Hunting didn't happen, and I'm not yet sure why, though I'll definitely have to re-schedule. And by the time Ali called me, I was a little too toasty to drive out to Rick's.

However mulling about at Sam's did afford me a number of new friends. Its a strange group of people, but they are very open and friendly, for the most part.
Chief among them is a girl named Stefanie Daye(yes, with an F). She's from Rhode Island, down to see friends (adorable accent), and staying here now for her second year.
An interesting girl, likes Metal, Fantasy swords, mirrors, and Nightmare Before Christmas.
Hit it off pretty well and ended up spending the night at her place.
The night was pretty bizarre though. Jeremy Ironhawk got a cig in the eye, accidentally, and was rolling around most of the rest of the night, waiting for the pain to subside. It really didn't, so he got very drunk and slept it off... Also Hayes burgers, I tried for time #2... it sucks, confirmed.

So yeah, went back with Stef about 7 in the am to her house and crashed there with her. Nothing sexual happened, just cuddled up and slept. I honestly dont' think either of us were looking for a sexual encounter out of the whole thing.
Of course you know my drama, and I gathered that she had a boyfriend up to about two weeks ago, but he moved back to RI. When we were laying in bed together, you could really tell that we both just needed to have someone be there with us... indeed, it has been too long for me. Even when I had Jenny intimately by day these last couple months, my nights with her would be stolen from me...
Though, sadly, all I could think of while I was holding her was "This isn't the same, this isn't as good, I wish it were her.".. and I'm sure Stef wished to some degree that this RJ fellow was there in my place, too... it makes me wonder if, when Jen's with her new boy and they bed down for the evening, she still thinks of me, as well...
Still, despite the mixed emotions, there was some degree of relief in the whole thing. *sigh* casual, mutual comfort...such a strange thing. "Everybody needs somebody sometime"

Anyway, nothing will come of Stef, aside from maybe a friendship. She's nice, but I don't think worth the rather extreme amount of effort I show to girlfriends...and it's too early to be healthy, anyway.

BUT, she's one of the good folks I met at Sam's last night, and certainly worth writing about. I guess we're maybe going out again tonight for some drinks at her friend's-aunt's-bar. Free tab!
Speaking of which, I gotta get dressed for that, as I'm show fresh and naked as the day I was born. Later!
