party over here, party over there
this weekend has the potential to be interesting.
heading down to my buddy's house for a halloween party. it'll be real good to get out of town for a few days. maybe dabble in a little golf on sunday. hopefully it'll be nice.
so at said party, there will be a girl i used to have a little thing with, as well as an ex girlfriend. both from undergrad. they werent ever good friends, but they knew about each other. the ex didnt like the other thing one bit. i havent talked to the first girl in several years. it didnt end badly, just awkwardly. probably moreso for her, as it's a proven scientific fact that i dont have feelings. but she had just graduated, and i stopped by her place in the summer on the way to another friend's, we went out for the day, had a good time, then it got weird as to where things were going. and then that was pretty much it.
the ex is another story. we dated for a while in 2001-02 at undergrad. she broke up with me in february 02 cuz she was graduating and "didnt know where her life was going." a vague reason, yet the best i ever got. i would later find out that this life confusion was common to most senior girls, but tha'ts for another post. so she was confused. but i still liked her (notice: liked, as in past tense), so i said we should still be friends. for some reason, i actually meant it. well friends lasted for about a week or 2, then we just wouldnt talk anymore. finally i said something and it was good for another week or so, but then she disappeared again. then in late april/early may, i started the thing with the first girl. well all of a sudden ex wanted to be friends again. amazing how that works. but then they graduated, and summer came, and that also fizzled (as noted above). so naturally, ex disappeared once again. so i decided to make things definite. i sent ex an email that said hey, we tried friends, it didnt work. you're only friends when you want or when you found out i was hanging out with girl 1. dont waste my time or yours, and never talk to me again.
i was proud of myself, it felt good to put that behind me. and she didnt talk to me again, didnt even respond to that email, until a year later when she randomly sent me a "hey how are you" on instant messenger. she must've been drunk or something. either way, i was just short with her, the convo lasted 10-15mins, and that was that. but now, there's a chance she's coming on saturday.
i'll probably jsut ignore her, as i have no desire to be friends or even engage in fake small talk. what's the point? but if she successfully corners me, i'm not a dog, i wont piss on the floor. i'll politely excuse myself to the restroom (even if i just came from there) or to get a beer (even if i just got one - hey, double fisting is socially acceptable). it's not that i intentionally want to piss her off, it's that i dont give a shit. but if i know one thing about women, it's that boobs are nice. but if i know two things, it's that boobs are nice and they dont like to be ignored. well, should've thought about that before you were all vague and sketchy.
on a side note, my most recent ex is having a party in the same town the same night. randomness.
either way, it's gonna be an awesome weekend with awesome friends, and maybe a little golf. plus, i will have a mustache, and i wont be thinking about law for a few days. how sweet is that? life is good right now.
