Wheeeee, an update.

So, as per my excitement during my last post, I left out a detail about how me and Alicia knew each other.

We know each other through Christen, my ex-girlfriend. Alicia and Christen have been best friends for a really, really long time. Well, Alicia just called me. She sounded really down, but as per the female way, she waited until I asked about it.

"Alicia, you okay?"
"Yeah, what were you saying?"
"No, wait. You don't sound all there."
"I'm not."
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"Christen isn't happy with us going to prom."
"Did she SAY that to you?"
"Well, it was really awkward for me...I asked her if me and you being there together would make her prom less of a good time, and she told me, 'Well, I want you to be happy...but yeah, it would make it less fun for me...But I want you to be happy!'"
"...She said that to you? Well, don't worry about it. We don't have to go to prom together. It's really not a big deal. It's just a dance, Alicia. What's it really mean, anyway?"
"Yes! See? You're cool! No one else gets it...It's just a dance..."

Well, she ended up saying that she wasn't even sure she wanted to go. So I offered we hang out that night, if she wasn't going to go. If she got invited by someone else, it would be totally cool. No hard feelings or anything. There'll be other times to hang out and all.

Well, she sounded pretty excited about the fact that it wasn't a big deal to me. And it looks like we're going to be hanging out real soon, and at least again on prom night, along with one of our friends who goes to another school. Molly, a girl from Northwest Catholic, is pretty sure she has the same prom night as us. All three of us might hang out and have our own non-prom prom.

Not a hard feeling in my body :-) I'm actually glad. Dances bring drama anyway. (I know, I shouldn't be talking about drama. I'm actually trying to get with my ex-girlfriend's friend.) Well, we'll see how it all turns out. And I don't really mind one bit.
