HEY YOU GUYSSS,

How would you go about asking someone out while they're working and not look like a total jackass to the other person working there?

Proposal Idea:

I'm thinking of getting a parking violation envelope (the thing cops stick the ticket in before they put it under your wiper) but instead of having a ticket it'll just be a "Marry me?" note. I could sneak off and ticket her car either during dinner or before she gets off work. That way she'll have a pretty great swing in emotions, from confused fury to hopefully joy.

What do you guys think?

Dazed · « **Reply #1402 on:** 18 Jan 2009, 11:48 »

The skiing idea was far better imho. You probably want to propose in person.

Speaking of skiing, I have new ski boots

Whoooooooo

Dimmukane · « **Reply #1403 on:** 18 Jan 2009, 11:52 »

Continuing on with your skiing idea, head down the mountain before she has gotten situated after getting off the lift, and feign injury at the bottom (to get the skis off). Then just act like you hurt your knee or something until she reaches you, and then pop the question.

The parking ticket idea might make her a little angry.

nobo · « **Reply #1404 on:** 18 Jan 2009, 12:16 »

Damn. And i thought it was pretty clever, especially because i planned to be with her when she discovers said ticket. Alright. back to the drawing board to see if i can top the skiing idea.

Patrick · « **Reply #1405 on:** 18 Jan 2009, 13:53 »

Oh man, if you are there when she discovers the ticket, that changes things. I give it a

Jimmy the Squid · « **Reply #1406 on:** 18 Jan 2009, 14:11 »

Yeah if you're actually standing there when she opens it then it is actually kind of cool. At any rate I hope your poker face is alright.

Inlander · « **Reply #1407 on:** 18 Jan 2009, 14:55 »

Careful, man. You don't want to risk her seeing the envelope and getting pissed off because she thinks she's got a ticket. And then finding out that you're the reason she thought she had a ticket. If that's the way you're going to propose then your boyish grin better be damn-near irresistible.

nobo · « **Reply #1408 on:** 18 Jan 2009, 15:11 »

i think where the boyish grin fails the ring will make up for it. besides, the fact that i'll be visiting is a surprise in it of itself, so i don't think getting a parking ticket would put too much of a damper on her mood.

Jimmy the Squid · « **Reply #1409 on:** 18 Jan 2009, 15:24 »

Hopefully she isn't the type to get mad and tear up the ticket upon finding it.

Also I spent the day hanging out with Linds, Edith, Ally and Shane. While they did boring things like looking at yarn, I stood in the snow and watched as tiny flakes of ice fell out of the sky. Sure, people walking past probably thought I was mentally subnormal when I shook the snow from the branches of a bush and laughed but still, a fun day.

It was enough to make even the deepest, darkest emocore kid crack a smile.

Blogs cred,

I always hate leaving the Boston area and heading home. I love this area, which is why I am moving here in the fall. But it sucks even more because this weekend has been SO MUCH FUN. The next time it snows in your town, walk up your street and draw smiley faces on the snow-covered cars. It's a blast. We did it.

Dear Blog thread,

I got an iPod shuffle! I like it because I have no control over what I am listening to, which is healthy since I tend to listen to the same things over and over again and neglect the majority of my highly enjoyable music library.

I also am ridiculously conflicted about everything surrounding relationships right now. Holy shit.

Also: beer!

Dear blog thread,

I have been consistently running on like 3 hours of sleep each night and it is finally catching up to me.

Also I have been singing pretty much all evening (5 hours a day) for three days straight and my voice is starting to give out. I have a gig on Saturday, too, which is what I'm practicing with my wee group for, but man, if my voice can't hold out for this upcoming week of straight rehearsals just to get everybody playing right, I am gonna have a lot of problems.

Love,
Me!

Dear Blog Thread,

Tomorrow night I have a date with a boy who likes Slint and Belle And Sebastian and Pavement and Kevin Drew, and a lot of bands I really like! He also tells me that I am beautiful, and wonderful, and sent me a text message to say good night! He is also very attractive.

I should totally not let myself be fooled by his charm and compliments and good looks right? Like all things there must be a catch.

Le sigh. I am going to be so disappointed.

My best friend in the whole world left to go home today. I'm 8 kinds of heartbroken.

But I am in a good mood! Really! Honestly! I played with my dog, who is probably the second best friend in the whole world. And I walked a lot today. And I am thinking of making biscuits because I could really go for some jam and biscuits. Though it is almost 1am. I may make them for breakfast tomorrow.

Take care,
Emaline

PS. James, I meant that we could all meet somewhere. I doubt Davis is very serious about climbing a super huge snowy mountain, because I don't think he has ever climbed a mountain. I could be mistaken, however. He has often surprised me with things like these.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #1417 on:** 19 Jan 2009, 00:51 »

Emaline, sometimes nice guys really are nice guys! It's less rare than you think! He could just be into you, which is also very believable indeed.

Oh hey there blog thread,

I slept through my Friday night, so when I woke up at 5am Saturday morning I resolved to just stay up until 5am Sunday so I could sleep all day and make it to work and not be tired. I ended up going to sleep at 9:30am Sunday morning, I wasn't really tired, I just said to mysef, "self, you've been up nearly 30 hours, you should probably sleep." And so I slept all day. Then went to work where I talked a bit to RSG, but that didn't go to far.

I rearranged my bedroom furniture for the first time in almost two years! I now pretty much want to spend all my time in here because it's so light and warm and happy, which it somehow managed not to be with the bed 4 feet to the left and flipped around.
I also now have a television in my room for the first time in my entire life, which feels ridiculously strange. I refused to hook up cable to it because that just feels way too fat american, so it's just for playing movies.

Dear Blog Thread,

I had a dream where I was hanging out with Tommy. I don't remember much from it, but I do remember him speaking in a neutral, almost American accent then mutating into a comical Scottish accent.

Does that actually happen?

No. I have a very proper, slightly effeminate English BBC-esque accent. I'm not Scottish, I just live here for the time being.

Look, I made a small video during Tronnocon last year. You don't see me but I'm the guy speaking off camera throughout.

You might even say your accent is "dainty".

I had cable hooked into my TV in my apartment, the funny thing was that I would end up turning it on mostly because I didn't have the internet hooked up yet and I just wanted something to do while I was relaxing at home. I don't have cable anymore so I ended up moving my TV from the corner to the middle of my room. I need to clean my room/ unclutter it/ not use a cardboard box for a TV stand. Right now I absolutely cannot reach my closet very easily because I have too much stuff that is just hanging around. I also think I need to move my bed from the corner to perhaps straight out into my room. I also need a second desk.

Dear Blorg Tread

I spent this weekend, from Friday night until Sunday morning, basically having amazing sex. There were a few things in between but for the most part they were also awesome (like french toast, eggs, and bacon for brunch with champagne mimosas, and really really amazingly good pot after dinner). But the main thing about this weekend was that it was filled with fucking amazing sex. I'm really, really happy about that and I'm feeling awesome.

I got the best blowjob of my entire life last night. I laughed hysterically for like a minute and a half straight once I finally started to come down an my body started to relax again, out of a sense of absurdity. I did not know it was possible to feel that good.

Emaline · « **Reply #1429 on:** 19 Jan 2009, 11:52 »

Not awkward at all, apparently. Extremely satisfying, or so I hear. I mean, it was pretty obvious by that point that something that was unusually awesome had happened, so I think the "I can't believe how absurdly ridiculous that was" impetus behind the laughing was well communicated.

Laughing orgasms, honestly, are always the best. If an orgasm is so powerful that you can't stop laughing afterwards you know something has gone VERY right.

You can laugh midway through orgasm? Seriously? I was always under the impression that sex was a very seriouz bussiness and your telling me people laugh in it? How wonderful, I have another reason to like humanity.

onewheelwizzard · « **Reply #1435 on:** 19 Jan 2009, 12:14 »

I tend not to laugh midway through. For me, laughter is the perfect tension release right in the afterglow of a really exceptional orgasm, because (a) it feels really really amazing to laugh really hard, especially after something like that, and (b) it's the most accurate way of saying "what just happened in my body was completely ridiculous and thank you so much for being such an active and enthusiastic participant in its creation, can't you see how happy I am right now."

Josefbugman · « **Reply #1436 on:** 19 Jan 2009, 12:17 »

Wouldn't know, about the whole "exceptional orgasm" thing,but it sounds pretty darn cool. Having fallen down some stairs laughing I assume its the sort that brings tears to the eyes. I just hope I don't do my occasional thing of cackling insanely if it happens to me.

Chances are the parties will settle before it ever comes to a jury trial - that's happened to me twice before. If not, you can always dye your hair an outrageous shade and wear a shirt with the anarchy A on it to selection. Young people are among the first to be eliminated from any jury. Middle-aged women are the prosecution's jurors of choice, as evidenced by their love of Court TV.

So during training today we had the fraud guy come in and we listened to fraudulent calls jerkfaces make to get information to steal identities and all that good stuff. I am so so paranoid now. Plus the first thing he did when he came into the room was tell us all information about ourselves that was like... weird stuff, like someone's license plate number and the last five digits of another person's driver's license and where my mom and dad both live. So I've learned to never ever give any information out ever, especially if they call you and want to get your social security number or even address.

I got a summons to jury duty a little while after turning 18, they mailed it to my dad's house. It was great, because obviously, since I don't live within 6,000 miles of the U.S., I am exempt from that law until I move back to the States. So basically I didn't show up to jury duty and they couldn't do SHIT.

Dear blog thread,

It looks like my friend and I will be playing our Gigantic Really Prestigious Gig without a drummer on Saturday, 'cause the guy who was going to do it called me and had to cancel (he's one of the Marine guards and his very rigid work schedule made it impossible for him to attend). My keys-playing friend doesn't want to do it anymore. I'm trying to convince him that it could work as a guitar duo (he also plays guitar). If he isn't interested I can just fly solo, switching out between my electric and my acoustic.

I am really upset about losing our drummer, though. I was hellof excited and now it seems like the whole gig is falling out from under my feet. I want to cling onto this thing for dear life.

Love,
Me!
