I'm back! (again...)
Feb. 27th, 2005 03:33 pmHave you ever been attracted to someone who was completely wrong for you? It's like that Sarah Mclaughlin song -- "How stupid could I be? / A simpleton could see / that you're no good for me / but you're the only one I see..." (*sigh*) I was fine as long as he was seeing someone else, but they broke up recently, and I just found out about it this weekend. It's really ridiculous --
I mean, he and I are practically opposites (in fact he sort of freaked me out when I first met him). Maybe I've been watching too much Inuyasha -- the whole "good girl + bad boy" thing is starting to appeal to me...
Alright, before I slip into the sort of teen melodrama that I so despise, let's change the subject...
Just got back from a trip to San Antonio with my choir (of which, btw, both "bad boy" and his former girlfriend just happen to be members) -- my third and final trip of the month (thank god). It was more fun than I thought it would be, actually. I mean, my fellow choir nerds are great, but I just don't happen to be wired well for group travel. I like the flexibility and freedom of traveling on my own or with my family or friends or whatever. As it turned out, though, things were really pretty flexible. True, we had to be herded around to various sites on a pair of coach buses, but once we got wherever we were going they would just give us a time and place to regroup, and turn us loose to wander where we chose. It was especially nice at lunch, because they'd usually take us to a shopping mall and give us a couple of hours to hang out and eat and browse. I had so much Starbucks this weekend it's not even funny...(*grin*)
It was really nice to get a chance to talk to all sorts of people that I hadn't even spoken to before too. I'm an introvert by nature, so it required a bit of effort, but I did pretty well. Got to know a lot of guys I'd never really met (it's harder to get to know them in choir because they all sit behind us, so I can never really match the names with the faces...*grin*).
Well, my mind seems to have gone blank, so I'd better stop typing now. I've got writing and beta-ing to get to -- not to mention my homework...heh...
