Blush

"You're much cuter than that, give yourself some credit." -Remington

A snippet from the ongoing conversation with Matt and my response:

Oh yeah, and he said that you know about whatever girl he's now dating out there or whatever...

Two. Both into polyamory.

He thinks he's so cool because he dates like 4 women at a time...

True!

Oh yeah, got another from him, and you did get mentioned (about the Velma thing)- "DarkPRiSM was saying something about you comparing yourself to Velma from Scooby Doo." Again, he disagreed with that.

Then the e-mail from Remington . . .

Well, all right, then.  I suppose I can wait that long.  Barely. :) Boy, did 
I get all mushy after reading that! That's so sweet! (I kinda feel that way
myself- I now have a reason to look forward to winter quarter, and THAT'S a 
shock)  When will you be back in town?  I'll actually be in town around the
22nd or so. And I do have a functioning vehicle again, although it's kind of 
icky.

And, is there anywhere in particular you'd like to go?  A show of some
sort, or a favourite restaurant?

} >Maybe this time
} >I'll get the report written and posted before we have the actual date. :)
} Hmmm, go for it, see what you get right!

I didn't really think accuracy was the point. :) I was thinking this time
it's my turn to rescue you from something... Probably either a vicious,
fire-breathing demon critter, or time-travelling aliens.  Unless you've
already got an enemy or two to work into the plot?


[LONG, LONG, INCOMPREHENSIBLE thing answering my question about how to put
sigs on the newsgroup which I have edited extremely]
I'd be glad to show you how it all works at some point. 

} >Daria's a good show.  One of the few things I miss about cable.
} Yup. I get compared to that show all the time.

Heh.  DarkPRiSM was saying something about you comparing yourself to Velma
from Scooby Doo.  Not so, I say.  You're much cuter than that, give
yourself some credit. Blush, part 2.

Mine back:

>Well, all right, then.  I suppose I can wait that long.  Barely. :)  

Awwwww . . . if I blushed, I would be blushing right now.

When
>will you be back in town?  I'll actually be in town around the 22nd or so.

My guess is Jan. 3 (around then sometime), whenever the damn dorm opens again, I
don't know exactly when that is (then again, I don't pay much attention). Sorry.

>And I do have a functioning vehicle again, although it's kind of icky.

Icky? What did you do to it?
>
>And, is there anywhere in particular you'd like to go?  A show of some

Depends on what shows are going on in Jan. (plus what I can get into when my 
21st is some months off). Too bad the Paul Sykes stuff is over with =( I know 
this sounds stupid, but I don't know that much about the restaurants around 
here- when the parents come to visit I go wherever they don't fight over. So far
that's about two restaurants and Jack in the Crack. Which, incidentally, seem to
be the same places that my friends like to frequent (except for the one that 
loves Subway).

Good point-

I was thinking this time

No exciting enemies- my high school archenemy goes here, but well, that's never
amounted to more than backstabbing comments. I'd go for the aliens- I always 
figured if they ever started picking up people they'd DEFINITELY go for me.

>The simple way. 

YOU CALL THAT SIMPLE?????

[Long, complicated stuff]
I'd be glad to
>show you how it all works at some point. 

You'd probably have to, because that just all went over my head (sucks to be 
short!).

Well, I don't look like either of 'em (other than Velma and the glasses), so I 
was going more on personality. What it was was that we were doing a mystery 
thing for Halloween on the website I work on and we were debating how to do it 
(the newbies (me included) as the Scooby crew, the non-newbies as Clue 
suspects), and a few people mentioned me for Daphne. Daphne's the dingy one, 
right? I was like, "I come off that ditzy?" Well, uh, sometimes . . .
