now I get to talk about something else. Courtney.. I just think she is the greatest and here's where I get to say why and tell the story about her.
So Miss Gagnon is in my government class and the first day I came in late so there were only a couple seats open. I quick glance decided for me that even though I'd have to do some squeezing, the third row from the left, second to last seat back was the place for me. There just happened to be this cute girl sitting next to it, and -hey- I'm no fool. So I looked over at her and noticed she had written an assignment on her notebook paper. I took that as a good enough excuse to talk to her, so I said, "hey, did I miss anything important?" I could see her paper said to read chapter one and watch the republican national convention and write a one-page paper on it, so when she just told me to read the book I thought.. hmm, does she want me to fail? It was pretty funny actually, and later I got the entire assignment out of her. I told her I liked her socks because they reminded me of neopolitan ice cream, and they truthfully were pretty dang rad. The next time we had class I was wearing my weezer shirt, and afterwards she asked me if I liked weezer. I pretended not to know who they were, but finally admitted that yeah, I do. She asked what other bands I like so I told her the get up kids.. here's where it gets weird. She asked if I'd ever heard of a band called death cab for cutie .. baaaaam! I pulled out my tickets to see the pixies and death cab.. I was just kinda rubbing in the fact that I was seeing them the next day.. I told her I'd get her a sticker or something.
Well.. I get home and find out Joey can't go to the show.. family emergency or something.. so I immediately try to call up courtney. She gave me her phone number and (by the grace of god) her apartment number. the number didn't work, so I ran over there to invite her to come with us. I knew it was crazy cause we had just barely met, but I was an opportunist and it worked out. We had a great time getting to know each other the ride to Bend and Roseburg and the waaaay long ride back. She was a captive audience, so I didn't really know if she thought I was cool or what. Afton and Kandi approved right away, so I was excited.
ok.. so all that was last weekend.
since then, I'm always thinking about her.. she is just such an amazing person. she's a genuine nice girl, nothing fake about her. good taste in music and all that jazz. I just like being around her, and a day hasn't passed yet where I haven't at least talked to her.
maybe more to come on that whole thing. I'm trying not to be like Lee too much.. I don't want to get too deep on this journal.. also .. I won't be like him if things between courtney and I do work out, .. as in, dropping off the face of the earth.
I'm out.. later
