Squeelicious day. Mostly.
Jun. 17th, 2004 08:54 pmLet's get the hand-wringing out of the way first.
JC's touring with Jessica Simpson? [dramatic pause] Moving on. Well, not so fast. Word around the Board of Knowing More than Your Sad, Sorry Ass Ever Possibly Could (so take *that!) is that the Jessica tour dates have now been wiped from MusicFreedom, not unlike an Etch-a-Sketch that's been shaken clean. And, might I add, AND, she has a tour date here in Columboo at the end of June!!!!!1!!1one!!! Yowza! So anyhoo, that's the news that was.
Now on to the fun, less puzzling and less traumatizing stuff.
You know how you have days where you think you can safely strut your stuff without being laughed at? And then there are days where you're "eh", but then something really nice happens and puts a bounce in your step? I had one of those.
A friend of a friend at work thinks I'm pretty and has told me so before. Not in a hitting-on-me way, just every now and then she'll say it (she's got a face like a doll). Anyway, walking out of the restroom today I ran into her in the hall and we said our hellos and she said, "You are so pretty!" and I just laughed and said she was too, and she said, "You really are." That was nice. :-)
When I got back to my desk I was feeling all cute and stuff, so I got out my favorite lipstick, Moist Berry. It's a pretty color, and looks like the name, like the color of ripe raspberries when they go dark, but before they get *really* dark. It's a beautiful color, and I wear it when I want a punch of color and to feel good. Woohoo! Berry lips!
Went to a Mexican restaurant for lunch with the friend I'm trying to wrangle to the sparkly side (ooh! and there was a brush with slash, but that comes later). Oh. My. God. The waiter was the cutest thing ever. Big brown eyes, black hair, short, with the bangs kind of swept up...aiii, mami, he was hot. OH, so cute. So he was doing the cute thing and being flirty and she and I were being flirty right back. Two married women! Scandalous!!! I smiled and flashed my berry lips at him!
So after ordering and receiving our drinks, then ordering and receiving our food, I couldn't stand it any longer. After he left the table I commented on how cute he was. She agreed, and we spent the next few minutes talking enthusiastically about his charming little self and ogling him when he walked by. She commented on his butt, and even called it a bubble butt, which surprised me, because I'm still feeling out her boundaries on that kind of stuff.
She's kind of quiet but she's fun - she came to our group through a mutual friend, and I knew her friend a few years before I met this girl. Our mutual friend used to be much more fun but she's become kind of righteous and bitter and just not as fun. Let's put it this way, instead of joining in and giggling about CuteWaiterBoy, not-so-fun friend would probably say something like...I don't know. "He's probably got a girlfriend," or somesuch, in a biting, sarcastic way, as though we were honestly trying to hook up with this guy. Which is too bad. I miss her old personality. Also, I think she's secretly become a Republican. ANNNNNNNNNYway.
So we end up leaving cutie pie a hefty tip - which he earned not just by being cute, but by being such a sweetheart in the bargain. He called us senoritas! His eyes twinkled! He smiled! Good lord, that boy was cute.
Now the slash bits. She's a Ron freak, and lately we've been shamefully squeeing over him at least three times a week - our not-so-fun friend would be *scandalized*. "He's only 15!" she'd say. What, like I don't know this? So she emailed that she really needed to finish OoTP and that she's been hanging out at a message board where people post all kinds of theories. Theory one, board members think that Snape loved Harry's mother. Then she wrote, "They seem keen on the idea that Sirius and Remus are/were a couple."
Aiii! My worlds are colliding! Kind of! I wrote that I agreed with the first theory, that once she reaches that part in the book she'll probably agree as well. For the second theory I wrote one line:
*cough*Iagreewiththisalso*cough*
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Dude, I'd love it if this chick turned into a slasher. I can't wait til she's finished the book. I wonder if she'll agree with that theory as well? BWAHAHAHAHA! <--[evil slasher laughter]
JC!
