ooh! watch update!
i'm shallow and indecisive, so when i'd narrowed it down to two choices and my parents said, essentially, knock yourself out (and if i decide i'm not cool with that, the bottom line is, what's another hundred dollars of debt when i'm already going to be a hundred thousand dollars in debt by the time i get out of here?), i went ahead and ordered the triple-dial watch and the cute dressier one. they are en route to my parents' house now, and will thence be sent here to me. (international shipping from overstock.com was going to be ridiculous.) (the triple-face one said, when i ordered, that there were only ten left -- so although i have a confirmation of my order, of course until it's shipped i won't know for sure if i got it. fingers crossed!)
also, for those of you who didn't pick it up from this morning's post, The Boy Who Etc. said No, thank you. but here's why that's not bad at all! in the first place, even in my drunken state, the drunken e-mail i sent last night was not along lines like "so am i nuts or have you been looking at me"; instead i said "we have a lot in common and i think you're cool and would like to know you better, so how weird would it be if i asked you out". i feel like that demonstrates growth. and secondly, he said "i like you a lot, and i like hanging out -- in fact i look forward to it! -- only, would rather keep it as friends." so, you know. i was really? only half wrong.
that doesn't make it a ton more fun when i say, in imitation of meg ryan in when harry met sally ..., "and i'm gonna be thirty!" and then he finishes the quote with "[hand-wave] someday!", but, you know. it's also good to have friends, and frankly a lot of my other friends around here think my particular brand of knowing things about theatre and movies is bonkers. this one and i, we tend to break into song, and that way we can both together raise people's eyebrows, instead of people looking at us oddly as individuals. heh.
