electriclandI'm supposed to be over this, right? I'm not supposed to get all upset merely because he's all over some other girl who I've never met and who he didn't see fit to introduce me to, right?
Apparently it doesn't work like that.
Will someone please explain to me how to focus on the positive? Viz., good match in the 1st round; fun conversation with Melanie, Katherin, Nathalie, Scott, the new girl whose name escapes me; surviving karaoke (No Doubt by myself, Janis Joplin with Iain, singing along with lots of people); dancing with Dave and Richard; dancing with Brent, which really could happen to anyone; getting dissed by the mincing waiter, which ditto. It was a good evening. Really.
And yet I take a cab home and start sniveling around Atwater. It's pathetic, really. It may be that my pathways-carved-in-the-brain theory is perfectly correct after all. Gah. Such stupidity.
(Fortunately Kirsty cures all. "There's a Guy Works Down the Chip Shop Swears He's Elvis" will do it if nothing else will. I'm pretty much OK now, really. Thanks for listening.)
(Edited to remove worst of redundancy. I may be drunk but I have standards.)

Date: 2003-04-03 07:05 am (UTC)I'm mostly sober now, staring glassily into the headlights of my oncoming hangover, and I think I can safely say from this perspective that this post was very largely alcohol-fueled. At least I had the sense to leave before I got maudlin in the pub, and a little sniveling in the cab never did anyone any harm.
One positive post comin' right up.
