Two tickets to a play- obviously I shouldn't go by myself but wasn't too worried about it if I did! I ask a friend for Saturday- great......
Last minute my schedule changes and I have to go on Friday- wedding reception. Four hours before the play is to start I need to find someone to go with me.....time is ticking, what am I going to do? Eleven year old Emily says ask a boy......
Dare I do it? One it is super last minute. What will he think? Am I being too forward? What if he acutally says yes? What if he says no? What will I do then? Feel completely STUPID? I'll do it casually, really casual-text message- will that be lame? What if he gets the wrong impression? What if I say something that he takes the wrong way? What if he thinks less of me because I did it over text? What if.........? Why am I asking myself these stupid questions Just do it!
With my heart literally pounding out of my chest and my fingers not really working very fast I write something clever- gotta make a good impression right? The red light goes off- he answered- sheer joy at that blinking red light- do I read it? I could just be happy that he wrote back :) Read and reply- again the thumping, fumbling and then....another red light blinking! Oh I think I have reached the highest of highs-----I read it brought back down to earth.....can't go, already have plans, but thanks for the invite.
As the saga continues- The joy of dating--really the joy
Sometimes you get the elevator- other times you get the shaft :)
