Me (8:02:39 PM): what?
Tom (8:02:43 PM): one sec
Tom (8:02:54 PM):
"Tom: hadnt planned to go
Dave: Why not?
Tom: firstly:
Tom: its kinda a lot of money
Tom: second:
Tom: I dont usually enjoy dances and shit
Tom: third:
Tom: I dont really want to go stag to the biggest social event of the year
Tom: Lastly:
Tom: Why? I don't see any reason."
Me (8:03:10 PM): ah
Me (8:03:24 PM): i suppose I'll go ahead and ask Tuba Kid then
Tom (8:03:31 PM): o_0
Me (8:03:46 PM): what?
Tom (8:03:55 PM): I dont like him at all.
Me (8:03:55 PM): I am asking you to go to prom with me as a friend
Me (8:04:06 PM): why?
Tom (8:04:08 PM): hah, no
Tom (8:04:14 PM): it wasn't "eeew, its aidan"
Me (8:04:18 PM): oh ok
Tom (8:04:18 PM): it was "argh, tuba kid"
Tom (8:04:38 PM): yeesh
Tom (8:04:43 PM): did you ask Julian?
Me (8:04:48 PM): eehhhhh
Me (8:04:55 PM): he keeps talking about how he doesn't want to go
Me (8:04:56 PM): plus
Me (8:05:07 PM): there was that whole
Me (8:05:08 PM): thing
Tom (8:05:11 PM): Yeah
Tom (8:05:15 PM): but then theres also that
Tom (8:05:19 PM): "never hurts to try" thing
Me (8:05:24 PM): well but
Me (8:05:31 PM): I don't want to get him re-freaked out
Tom (8:05:44 PM): Did he freak?
Me (8:05:50 PM): and I don't want to drag him to a thing he's not going to have fun at
Me (8:05:53 PM): well
Me (8:05:55 PM): a little
Tom (8:05:58 PM): wow
Tom (8:06:04 PM): thats a feat right there
Me (8:06:07 PM): but now we're kind of pretending it didn't happen
Tom (8:06:10 PM): I dont think I've ever seen him freak out
Me (8:06:11 PM): and everything's fine
Me (8:06:28 PM): this was him freaking out though:
Me (8:06:37 PM): he said "I'm getting kind of freaked out" over the phone
Me (8:06:45 PM): and then he avoided eye contact with me for two days
Me (8:07:30 PM): it actually worked out surprisingly well
Me (8:07:39 PM): I don't want to screw it up
Tom (8:07:58 PM): Mmkay
Tom (8:09:29 PM): still... Tuba Kid.
Tom (8:09:30 PM): Argh.
Me (8:09:35 PM): why don't you like him?
Me (8:09:40 PM): I know why eric doesn't like him...*
Tom (8:09:44 PM): I don't know!
Tom (8:09:49 PM): Eric is just a bitch
Tom (8:09:55 PM): But I just cant stand the kid
Me (8:10:04 PM): hm
Me (8:10:07 PM): I dunno
Me (8:10:14 PM): I am trying to think of other people
Me (8:10:21 PM): no one comes to mind
Tom (8:10:23 PM): Dave?
Me (8:10:29 PM): he's going with Molly
Tom (8:10:32 PM): Oh.
Me (8:10:40 PM): yeah
Me (8:11:01 PM): I feel like it might still be an option to go with them
Tom (8:11:02 PM): erm
Me (8:11:07 PM): well I mean
Me (8:11:11 PM): they are going as friends
Me (8:11:15 PM): but it might not be
Me (8:11:18 PM): and I don't really want to go there.**
Tom (8:12:10 PM): mm
Tom (8:12:19 PM): ...I think Bonnie and Julian should go together
Me (8:12:24 PM): haha
Tom (8:12:27 PM): just for the crazy awkwardness factor
Me (8:12:27 PM): oh man
Tom (8:12:36 PM): They would not talk.
Me (8:12:36 PM): do they even know each other?
Tom (8:12:44 PM): Or touch each other.
Me (8:12:51 PM): I mean, do they ever hold conversations with each other?
Tom (8:12:51 PM): Or look directly at one another.
Me (8:12:59 PM): because if they do, I want to witness one
Tom (8:13:02 PM): hah
Tom (8:13:11 PM): Bonnie doesnt speak unless spoken to...
Tom (8:13:27 PM): Julian doesn't speak until someone else has already finished.
Me (8:13:31 PM): she's getting louder
Tom (8:13:32 PM): It'd go nowhere fast.
Tom (8:13:36 PM): True.
Me (8:14:44 PM): maybe when two quiet people are talking to each other
Me (8:14:49 PM): there's some kind of reverse effect
Tom (8:14:49 PM): !
Me (8:14:54 PM): and it's a really good conversation
Tom (8:15:07 PM): they could communicate using sign language! Also, braile.
Tom (8:15:32 PM): (two mutually exclusive modes of communication, there.)
Me (8:15:43 PM): yeah, I noticed
Tom (8:17:10 PM): hee
Me (8:17:18 PM): what?
Tom (8:17:21 PM): Schultz.
Me (8:17:26 PM): what about him?
Tom (8:17:29 PM): ask him
Tom (8:17:33 PM): 'cause that'd be funny
Me (8:17:37 PM): oh
Me (8:17:40 PM): pf
Me (8:17:48 PM): he probably already has a date
Me (8:18:10 PM): I think people underestimate the pimpdom of the Schultz.
Tom (8:18:13 PM): eh, yeah
Me (8:18:44 PM): Imma go do homework
Tom (8:18:49 PM): See, this is another reason I'm not going
Tom (8:18:54 PM): finding a date is a bitch
Me (8:19:03 PM): pf
Me (8:19:04 PM): yeah
- Because his father is a local politician who Eric dislikes and because he once made a very slightly snarky comment about the deparment of youth services, which Eric works for.
** Oh. So I guess I just went there. Uhhh... get back to me after I ask Tuba Kid.
