As I was walking to the UC today to check my mail, I approached the steps, and who happened to be walking up those very steps? As fate would have it, my two friends, the ones who are dating now, but weren't/were/who knows when a certain situation occurred, were walking up those same steps I was preparing to walk down. I am not sure how many thoughts flashed through my mind in that instant from realization to reaction... I think I thought about every thought I have had since the moment it happened up until yesterday when I talked to my specific friend. So, here was my reaction: "Hey, how's it going, guys?" How much friendlier and platonic could I get, right? Acknowledging both, as "guys", looking at both, smiling at both, totally normal, right? I don't know. Here was their reaction, at first I am sure we all had these frantic thinking faces on, so I knew that they must have both thought every thought there was to think as well. Then, he said "good" and she didn't say anything, and it was such a blur, as we were all probably speeding up to avoid the sudden wave of awkwardness, I don't know exactly what their faces looked like. I then suffered another tidal wave of thought, ravaging my calm demeanor, and walked quickly to my mail box. The situation caught me off guard, I honestly thought I would have until a movie night before I had to face that situation, but it wasn't about to be put off any longer. I'll probably be stalked by the movie 'Alien vs. Predator' next. I apparently cannot avoid the things I was trying to avoid by not going to movie night this last Tuesday. That should have been obvious when I kept seeing the ranting boy every other day. So, at first it was a little startling to have been faced with said situation unprepared, but I handled it with grace (I think?) and he reacted more maturely than he had to the e-mail, and maybe she was just in a quiet mood? So, now it is more funny than anything else. Right up there with irony and that sort of funny. I think it is funny now because I handled the situation as casually as I did, and that the response was as awkward as it was... yeah. That's it.
I am getting my hair cut tonight!
