(Note, all names in this week's Kolloum have been changed to
protect the innocent, whether they deserve it or not.)
A couple of weeks ago, I went with my friend "Molly" (as Fuffy has called
her) to visit her fiancé at Purdue, and to visit a boy whom we'll call
"Bob." Before said visit, I talked online with Bob and Molly's fiancé,
"Jim." On paper, Bob and I should have gotten along-- we both like the same
music, movies, and he seemed smart. I believe Bob told Jim that I was
"wicked smart," though I could be confusing conversations. ANYWHO, when I
finally meet Bob, I got the distinct impression that the kid was not only
not interested, but that he probably would rather have gotten a bikini wax.
So the four of us go to a bar, and once there I made the executive decision
to abandon my "3 drink maximum" rule. So as the second Heineken is making
me loose any and all volume control, I tell Jim about my tattoos. Now, just
so you know, Bob and I had not really talked at all up to this point. And
wouldn't you know it, the only thing this kid decides to say to me is "Not
to be mean, but what are they [the tattoos]?" This would have set me off if
my buzz hadn't just kicked in. Seriously, if I was sober, or a little more
drunk, he would have gotten a drink in the face. By the end of the weekend,
Molly and I had more or less segregated ourselves from Bob and Jim. That's
ok, Bob's friend "Anderson" was way hotter anyways. ;)
So, what was the point of this kolloum Kelly, you may be asking yourselves.
Honestly, do my kolloums ever have a point? Mostly, I just wanted to vent.
And, really, this story is kind of funny. I mean, if I can't laugh at some
guy who is so stuck on whatever it is he's hung up on that he can't handle
tattoos, then what can I laugh at? And Jim, if you're reading this, don't
feel bad. You cannot control love or lust no matter how hard you try. But
if it happens again I'll give you a fat lip. Just kidding. Laugh. Geeze.
:)
But now, on to what's important-- me. Here's what I'm currently into:
Listening to: Dave Matthews's "Some Devil"
Watching: "Italian Job" and trying to finish up Season 2 of "24"
Where I recently vacationed: Washington D.C.
Crushing on: newly-single Jude Law, and "Nick" (George Eads) from "CSI"
So until next time kiddies, take care of yourselves, and each other.
GO CUBS!!!!!!!!! -Kelly :*
