So, a couple things to write about...
1) Went to see the dj's band Friday night - things were fine. Not much to say really, after the gig we got a chance to hang out & talk a bit (as a group). Her friends/coworkers came to see her, so we sat with them. I actually knew one of them, went to school with her. Anyway, like I said, things were fine, but nothing worth talking about. I might go to karaoke tonight & see if she's working, but I'm not sure, as I've been out drinking the past two nights, and am feeling a bit rough.
2) Went to the derby last night - got there late, as I'd forgotten when it started. Found the ex and her b/f & sat with them. At one point, she left, & came back with a friend in tow, and let me tell you, this girl was amazing! GRJ (ex) introduced her, but I really didn't even hear, my mind just shut off as soon as I looked up at her!! She was short, petite, with short black, punk-ish spiky hair, beautiful eyes, beautiful smile... I was stunned! I did manage to sputter out a "nice to meet you", but I honestly didn't even hear her name. She sat down next to me & we all talked a bit while watching the 2nd match. Once I regained my senses and could start paying attention, I found out that she's also a member of GRJ's derby team. Man, I wish I could have seen that bout! I'm going to have to go to more of them.
The teams had an after-party, and I decided to go to that as well. Had a few beers, talked with GRJ's b/f for a while. He's a really cool guy, someone I could hang out with. He's a musician as well, but much better than I am - anyway, I mentioned that I'd like to find some other people to play with & asked if he'd want to jam sometime. He said if he had some spare time on a weekend we might be able to, so that's pretty cool.
While we were at the bar getting a beer, I had to ask GRJ again, what the girl's name was. Want to hear something funny? I was still so hung up on her & wanting to talk about her, that as soon as GRJ told me, I forgot again! I told her about blanking out, and how attractive I thought the girl was, but as is typical, I didn't really know what to say. Fifteen minutes later, I actually had to ask her name again! I got it now - want to hear something funny? It's the same name as the dj! What are the odds? Anyway, I realized a bit later that, as I'd hoped, *she* had shown up to the afterparty too. Not that it mattered, really, because I have absolutely no game. It's funny, I can talk to anyone about anything, if I'm not interested, but the second I'm attracted to someone, I clam up. GRJ & I ended up sitting near her, and I did manage to make some small talk with her. GRJ told me that she was going to keep inviting me to hang out up there, because I told her a while back that I needed a new scene. My hope is that, if this girl sees me around more often, and we get a chance to talk, maybe we'll hit it off. I really hope so, but with my track record, I don't expect it.
The one thing I'm good at, is "wait and see", so that's what I'm going to do. I really believe that if something's going to happen, it will. Karma. Serendipity. Fate. If it should, it will.
I really hope it does.
