~And Then What Happened Was~

Sadly, I have been neglecting you of my wonderful adventures. I've had picnics in the cold, (literally multiple) gone star gazing indoors, found symbolism in the MTC, discovered how to both succeed and fail, been on at least a dozen dates, reviewed a play, and begun the Halloween ritual. Exciting right? The details are even more thrilling, compelling and thought provoking but, not on the forefront of my mind. Carlaberry can see what you cannot; that is not what a year off of school is about. Someone recently told me I was "livin' the life." While yes, being a professional dater was fun, I didn't even have to feed myself and I still gained weight, I had no job. I was not productive.

Someone invited me to an Astronomy Lab. I sat there holding hands with a cute boy and staring intently at a dome with spots of light that imitated galaxies and constellations. Did you know that Serious Black was named after a star!? A Star! Puck, Hercules and countless other folks we know are suspended in our skys and have been for as long as couples have been holding hands and gazing intently the different kinds of light that shine so beautifully.

The wonderful human being that let me have my first taste of college is now getting to see stars shine in my eyes, even the light that shines so beautifully, whenever he wants to. And good news to all you romantics out there, he wants to see my eyes quite often.

This particular weeks brand new adventure is that I have a bet going on. Apartment 26, and David specifically, had it coming to them anyway. Not the loss of their bet, you see if I loose I am supposed to make them dinner. I owe them so much foot it's not even funny and I need to practice my cooking skills so either way I win! In your face gambling little boys! But I'm going to win. I get a meal from Dairy Queen when David, once again, does not ask this girl on a date by the end of the week. Each week he promises he will, and each week he does not. Kevin believes that I don't know David as well as I think I do; that Dave will pull through even if only to help Kevin win the bet. He is wrong.

Official Rules

David Must ask her this week

David must actually go on the date this week, or in the event that she is busy, within an approved extended time.

The time cannot be extended further than a week

I win when David doesn't go on the date, then Kevin will by me a full meal at Dairy Queen.

Kevin wins if David is able to prove that he did, Kevin gets a home-made Chicken dinner.
