So, yeah, anyhow, i really shouldn’t spend all day swooning over girls with boyfriends, no matter how much i like them and how much i coulda/shoulda/woulda asked them to go do something somewhere before they had a boyfriend. Which is not to say i’m not going to keep talking about her all week, but i don’t want to make her blush too much.

Do all incredibly cute blonde girls get nicknamed Tink? I only ask because, my (cute blonde) co-worker Trish says she’s never heard anything of the like, but Laurel had an email address with ‘Tink’ in it too… any thoughts on this little conundrum?

Well, that lunchbreak sucked. My ID snapped in half and they want $10 to replace it (wear and tear is supposed to be a free replacement), the CD store won’t sell pre-release copies of records anymore (grrrr), and they were cleaning the Green Room so i couldn’t eat my salad down there. But, on the upside, the “girl” was reading my site and suggested a pseudonym for herself.
I’m not sure why i wanted to give her a pseudonym … honestly, it’s not something i’ve ever done on this page before, because it runs contrary to the honesty i usually keep in place. I don’t know why exactly i came to call Selina by that name, and it’s a huge joke to my friends because calling her Selina doesn’t hide her identity at all, whether they recognize her from context or not. I suppose it’s just that when i’m talking about someone romantically every person that i know comes to the page for juicy tidbits, so it protects my private life (and the people in it) to an extent. But, anyway, her suggested pseudonym is going to confuse my friends, so, sorry Teri, i can’t call you Tink(erbell).

Back to hectic hectic office life, as opposed to hectic hectic convention life. Of course, i tend to miss convention life slightly more than i miss office life. By the way, is there some statute of limitations on when i’m allowed to have a crush on someone new? Having never dated before, i’m apparently treading on thin ice right now since i like someone new. Only, she isn’t new. But, let’s ignore the technicalities for now. Anyway, am i supposed to wait for Selina to get over me before i can flirt with other people? It’s been exactly a month since we broke up, and she’s still reading my webpage and holding the contents of it against me as much as she did when we first broke up.
The boy-meets-girl post from yesterday is what seems to be causing most of the trouble. What Selina doesn’t seem to want to believe is that i put “girl” (we’ll think of a psuedonym for her soon, i promise) totally out of mind for the entire time we were dating, because i only knew how to talk to her in terms of flirting. But, that wasn’t really true, that was my excuse to protect Selina from me talking to this girl at all. In reality, she was the last person i talked to before my audition for Good Woman of Setzuan, and the first person i told about getting my part. So… that’s not just flirting, is it? I honestly found her to be the person i wanted to share that with. But, anyway, i stopped talking to her for two whole months and i’m sorry i did because she’s an amazing person and i missed being able to randomly IM about how much we hated school. The fact that she has a boyfriend now is pointless to dwell on – because i was with Selina when they started dating, and i was in love with Selina. But, it’s my own dumb fault for not seeing her over our break. Like i said in that song… there’s no second chance at the first time.
