What in the blazes is going on out there, Rhydin"! I mean, this place is Fifty Shades of ****ed up all the time, but this was a whole new level of crazy. You know, it's just like a bunch of stupid priests to ruin Valentine's Day for all those sex-crazed denizens out there. If they can't have fun, then no one can! Am I right' Ass*****. Thanks to them, I've been unable to get back into my apartment because work on the pipes got delayed.
But I guess I shouldn't complain too loudly. TDH and I have been able to run into each other every night for the past few days. Starting to think he needs a better Blog Name than TDH. Maybe. I don't know. We'll see! Depends on whether or not he actually uses my number. But I'm getting ahead of myself here. Let's start on Valentine's day.
So he and I have hung out a couple times now. There was that midnight pancake run, too. On V-day I show up at the bar because the club I was at was getting attacked by crazy people. That whole outing was just a huge bust. I mean, come on. Why'd it have to happen right then?" I was just about to go dance and look ridiculous, too. Chances were high I'd have been able to punch someone in the face for thinking they could touch my ass just because I was shaking it provocatively on the dance floor. Since I couldn't have my fun at the club, I went back to the Red Dragon and that's where I ran into TDH again.
If my night was made lame by those crazy psychos out there, then TDH made it all better by giving me a gift. I know what you're thinking. "But Alice, you just met him! Why are you letting some random dude give you gifts?" I'll tell you why: It was a mother****ing vampire heart encased in glass, that's why. I was a little bit tipsy. I might've squealed when he gave it to me. Don't hate. It was the best Valentine's day gift ever. Honestly not sure how anyone's ever going to be able to top it. So sorry Future Husband!
A real, intact vampire heart! Still vivid and pink along the aorta, pulmonary arteries, and veins, but fading to a nearly necrotic black color near the lower reaches of the myocardium tissue. The glass block itself is made up of thin sheets that are all able to come away individually, allowing me to examine each slice of the heart on its own. I can see inside the atrium and the ventricles, all the valves. It's literally the perfect gift for a budding medical examiner superstar. I need like" a hundred more of these. All different kinds of species. Gib plz! ::grabby hands::
The next night I gave him my number. I know. I shocked myself, too. But come on now. Give me a break. Especially you, Keane!
Then last night, he showed up while I was in the common room doing some studying for a paper I need to write. I was doing it there instead of my room because my neighbors were having really loud sex and it was making me grumpy. For reasons. That, and I was too lazy to walk any further than the hearth. I'm glad he got there when he did, because I was starting to go cross-eyed from all that reading and concentration. Also he's fun to talk to. And really, really hot. Not gonna lie. We went out for milkshakes and talked some more.
Current gut check" He seems really nice. Pretty guarded, but desperate for meaningful interaction. I actually think he's lonely. That's the kind of vibe I get from him. I know he's probably got a **** ton of baggage, but he hasn't tried to dump it on me yet. That's always a plus. Not that I'd never be willing to hold a bag or two for a friend, but people around here have this tendency to overshare right off the bat.
SOME MYSTERY IS GOOD, PEOPLE!
Anyway. Like I said earlier" if TDH actually uses my number, we'll definitely have to think about giving him a better Blog Name. Message me with your suggestions! And stay safe out there! It's still kind of messed up on the streets. My shoe of the month package got delayed because of all this crap. KNOCK IT OFF! >:[
Completely unrelated sidenote: I think I made some lady friends who don't find me intolerable. Ev and her sister. We went ice skating today. Ee is ****ing phenomenal, a total angel zipping around the rink. I was lucky enough to keep from falling on my face.
