So I went to a Halloween party this past Saturday. My friend Jordin was hosting it. I hadn't seen her in about two years, and life has done it's fair share or kicking me in the face lately, so I went to go relax and hang out. Turns out I had a great time. I mixed shots and drinks for people, played some guitar Hero, had some great conversation, caught up with old friends, and even made out with a girl I'd never met before.
Yeah. That's right.
Her name's Liz, and she was my first party hook-up ever. I feel like an absolute geek (mostly because I'm 21 years old and haven't ever had a random hook-up). But at the same time (for the first time, really), I actually feel like I could make it as a single guy. Not only can I make it, but it turns out I"m an attractive guy (at least according to those around me). And before I get read the riot act by everyone around me, I don't think I've been able to ever view myself as an attractive guy. Nobody knows me better than me, and I've always thought I was a bit of a dork. But apparently that dork-status makes me more of an eclectic catch, so no complaints here.
So I finally got Liz's number, and now I have to figure out what the hell I'm gonna say to her. Here's where I'm gonna struggle like a fish out of water. I've always been pretty decent with words, but I choke when it comes to talking intelligently. So if anyone has any suggestions, feel free to drop me a comment.
On another note, I worked up the nerve to ask this girl in my show out. Her name's Leslie, and she's an incredibly talented young woman. We get along really well, and she's a fight nerd like me (MAJOR plus). We're supposed to go out for a drink on Thursday. We'll see how things pan out.
Overall lately, things have been okay, as a matter of fact. I've got an interview tomorrow for Old Navy (hey, work's work), and Bye Bye Birdie is going relatively well. But I've reached a quandary with this, as well. My stage combat instructor has awakened me to a show he's choreographing, and I REALLY want to be a part of it. The only trade-off is that I'd have to quit Bye Bye Birdie. I'm gonna have to give it quite a bit of thought.
But as of now, John is freaking out about homework, and I need to go be a good big brother. So it's peace for now.
