See that place with the sign in the window, written in a language you can't read? It says COME INSIDE FOR ADVENTURE.
hahaha. point taken though, i do need to, uh, "make it happen"

> Why don't you go out there and MAKE IT HAPPEN
Asking myself the same thing. It's disinterest, not shyness. I actually planned a boring alone night to catch up on chores and such. I'm just so depleted from the storms and power outages, replenishing the refrigerated food supply that was lost, and trying to clean up the resulting mess.
A few years ago it would've been me pulling not her.

"disinterested" now in "cute girl"?
― curmudgeon, Saturday, 10 September 2011 19:00 (twelve years ago) link
yeah, I don't get it myself, either.
earlier this summer I was just pining for adventure (I should bump that thread for new last-minute ideas).
now, some combination of ennui, exhaustion, disappointment, and heartbreak has shut down any interest in anything. even, unfathomably, cute girls

i took the bins out, there were a lot of them. on the way back up on the lift this cute eastern european girl i have a crush on was there again. we smiled at each other. i will never plucked up the courage to speak to her, and really i don't know if girls want to be get hit on in the lift of their buildings.
i'm working at 7am tomorrow so i'm going to read a bit of pet sematary and go to bed now.

i will never plucked?
yet you pretty much got the gist there (except that it's not a lack of courage)

On Twitter discussing how Christmas adverts are being shown already and about how "Justin is a Christmas elf" is a trending topic.

My thanks to Pleasant Plains and the rest of you for doing your best to snap me out of this funk..... Even though I feel too lethargic to walk out to my car, we're going out. Don't know where yet, I'm about to download the Washington Post Going Out Guide iPhone app and we'll choose something that looks fun. And adventurous!
With luck I'll be able to start a "Your Exciting Saturday Night" thread tomorrow....

My advice was for markers. Anyone else try to "make it happen" on your own and you're liable to get yourself killed.

i've got an exciting update. i woke up after 2 hours sleep, i can't get back to sleep, so i'm drinking peppermint tea and putting some football bets on.

Wow, Lee; sounds like you had a good night!

It really was. It's great being able to look back at what I wrote earlier in the day here, having no idea at the time what the night had in store....
Actually wasn't going well at first, couldn't get a conversation rolling for the first 2 hours but then things started to fall into place. Five years ago I would have written this off as a B-minus first date, but I've grown to appreciate the sort of informality she has, the way she didn't care that Iwasn't dressed the part and neither was she, and we had no real plans and just wanted to improvise, but improvise together. It wasn't exciting but was still very pleasant.
When I got home my neighbours & some friends were downing some beers on the front lawn and asked me where I'd been. When I gave them a recap, the girls were like awww about four times in one minute. It was then I realized I actually had a pretty awesome night.
Maybe again next weekend. But I'm so not ready to be half of a couple right now....
