friends... heh... yeah...

Ain't it funny how life has a way of kickin' ya balls sometimes? Case in point. Melanie. I'd recently given up most hope that we could be together. But there's always that little hope. So I don't completely ditch her. So we're having a delightful lunch yesterday when her phone rings. It's her best friend from florida. Quite apparently he's harbored a crush on her for some time and is tired of her talking to other guys. I can relate to this poor bastard. I mean, not only do I have a crush on Melanie, but I've often been put in the position of being madly in love with a woman who considers you her "best friend" (Red or DemonQueen anyone?). Anyway, he basically ends their friendship right there during our lunch.

Believe it or not... this didn't really effect our lunch. We had a delightful time. Then we went shopping at some of the shops around town. At that point, she snuggles up against my arm and says "Will you be my new best friend?" GODDAMMIT! "Of course" I replied. She goes "You won't leave me if I talk to other boys?" FUCK! "No, I won't ask my friend [Red] I'm very persistant when it comes to that sort of thing".

So, in recap, I've been relegated to cockless friend status. A role which I'm apparently oh so good at given the amount of times it's been thrust upon me. Fuck it, good night all.
