Lunar Obverse: I may regret this post...

I may regret this post...

I may regret this post after I wake up but I will not delete it.

I spent all night getting drunk in a local bar.

I ran into a girl I'd met once or twice before. She reminds me of a girl I used to know, but she's taller and cooler and prettier and funnier. After I ran into her, I spent part of my effort at getting her drunk, too, and trying to make her laugh, and trying to get her to come home with me.

I think I would have succeeded, except the bartender cut me off. I'd only had 7 drinks. And they were weak drinks, too. But even though I told her I was walking home, that I didn't even own a car, she would not serve me any more drinks. I guess 7 drinks in a 4 hour period is too much. Hucking fell!

Once I got cut off (FUCK! It's been a long time...) I lost momentum, and the prettier, funnier, cooler girl lost her enthusiasm. I could see it in her eyes. I had to make one more play for her, though.

I looked at her and said, "I totally want to go somewhere after the bar closes and talk and laugh and drink with you some more. But," I said wistfully, "I'm afraid I already know what the answer is."

She looked at me, and smiled, and looked down, and I knew that my guess was correct. "I just want to go home and sleep," she said. "It's been fun, though."

It had been fun, and I told her I would remember this night for a long time, and before I could get too maudlin I got up and walked out the door, and didn't look back.

But I did get her email address earlier in the night... again (I'd lost it the first time I'd asked her, but that's a whole 'nother story).

Do not regret it. Just wait until we hang out, and they TRY to CUT us off, Hell Hath No fury, my dear, like ME scorned, LOL. Let me know how this turns out. I know you are going through some stuff, but still, a little love, hurt no one, never. =)
