So I'm sitting here in the library like a good little law student (weird) and procrastinating both the rest of my practice quiz and the gym. All at the same time! I know....it's a talent. I got it from Satan. Right along with my lack of compassion for others. Where was I? Oh right....about last night.
Last night my friend Pat had a pre-thanksgiving Thanksgiving dinner/get together. I was super excited because this guy that I have a huge school-girl esque crush on was there. We shall call him Body. Since his is fabulous and I don't want to disclose names. So I was standing with my usual gaggle of girlfriends by the door when he came in. The minute I saw him I smiled and got the door for him. I'm amazingly un-coodinated and awkward around guys I like. That's like the sign that I like you - If I'm charming...I'm just not that into you. So I turn back to my group of girls and they're all laughing and whispering. Girls....mean. Natalie turns to me and says, "way to be obvious that you're in love with Body! Your face just lit up when he came in and your eyes got all sparklie!" I tried to be like all, "nuh-ah" but I was caught. I'm smitten...leave me alone! All of this was just funny until Jenn added, "Linds can't hide anything. It's like your face is an open book. Though most of the time I notice your facial expression because you're judging someone. Which is funny to watch you do!" Again, I have no response that saves me from this little nugget of truth. I've never been a good liar. And I've always been a tad on the judgmental side. I think that this part of my personality should be coveted though! As a girlfriend, I'll never tell you that you look cute or skinny when you don't! Friends don't let friends out of the house looking ugly. duh. I don't judge my friends....usually. Mostly its silent judgment and it's directed at people I don't know! I fail to see how this is a bad thing. (deny deny deny) Another thing this may stem from is my dislike for fake people. I'd rather you ignore me than say hi when you don't want to. I'll ignore you too and it'll be all good!
Later in the night one of the crossfit members (crossfit is the name of the gym I go to), Cody, asked me how long I've been in love with Body. Of course my mouth dropped and I managed to stammer out, "how did you know?!" Damn my inability to be subtle! Years. Years is the answer to that question. So here is a list of the qualities I'm unable to encompass v. the ones that I am:
Things I suck at (but you love me regardless):
subtly
lying
fake emotions
being ugly
humility ;)
Things I rock at!:
shakin' my booty
telling it like it is
opinions - i have lots of them
judging others
eating
that's just the short list because I'm being lazy. Ok....off to the gym :)
