Legend of the Girl: Insult Wars and ICQ
First note off: no hard feelings, Millenium, I know you meant well. Though if you still demand satisfaction, you can take a free shot at me - stomach or face - if you so desire. And yeah, we're all rooting for ya on those tests!
May-June, 2001 . . . . .
Okay, so by now I'm running this concept back and forth in my mind. Do I take up this apparent opportunity to ask "The Girl" to be my date for grad. I think it took either a few days or a week, but yeah. I figured that I wasn't gonna be the one in my family who doesn't go with female companionship.
Now, being that neither of us have the phone number to the other's house, we had to rely on internet messaging. This was (and is) the extent of our familiarity with each other.
So one night (may have been a Wednesday, I forget) I coaxed her into another typed-verbal exchange. I dunno, it seemed like the thing to do at the time. In any case, it got pretty heated, and we were having fun calling each other names (she had an advantage because she was already an anime fan at this point and knew all the Japanese words).
By the end of it, I reduced her to a "sweating emoticon". I think the following exchange went something like this:
Aw, I've pissed you off now, haven't I?
You do that just by breathing. ;-)
I see. It would probably be in poor taste to ask you to grad now, then, wouldn't it?
O_o ........what did you just say?
(etc. etc. etc . . . . .)
As you can see, I really, REALLY beat around the bush for this one . . . . . but, no matter. She said yes, and one month later we were at the hotel, getting pictures taken, watching friends dance and look silly in the process . . . oh yeah, we danced too (obviously).
I could probably go on and talk about grad night, but, well . . . you all know the deal. Boy and girl act somewhat awkward around each other, boy dances with girl to "The Freshmen" by The Verve Pipe, boy forced to leave with friends early to get ready for the later party, boy kisses girl, girl's friends go "OooOOoohh" . . . . . .
In any case, it was a wonderful night. If not for anything else, for the fact that I suddenly had a girlfriend . . . . . . . . . . . .
