I still like the way that it sounds.

Brian: your out of order
?
me: Yes.
Brian: why are you out of order?
me: No reason. Tired. Worn out.
Mostly because I like the way that it sounds.
Is that totally weird?
Brian: yeah. stop feeling shitty and just be happy. people like that.
me: I think I was pretty happy this weekend.
The tango festival was fun.
And I got a gorgeous new pair of tango shoes.
They're delicious.
Brian: thats better. see thats way more fun than being out of order
me: Yeah, but just say "out of order" it's kind of nice sounding, no?
Brian: no. it sounds depressing.

Last night at tango.

Advanced Beginner Student: You see the problem is that my bag of tricks is very small.
Me: Oh, that's fine. A dance can be very enjoyable without the fancy stuff. In fact, some of the best leaders forgo the fancy stuff, especially on a crowded dance floor.
ABS: Some of the best followers are very gracious.

me: you need a cute, fun, funny, intelligent girl.
It just won't work out otherwise.
Jessica: 1. smarts aren't everything, but they would be a plus.
2. i'm shallow - i'd really like her to have good hair.
3. fun and funny. FOR REAL.
sometimes i forget unfunny people exist until i meet one.

Jessica: i think my boobs are bigger. what the hell is going on?!
me: Ha!
Mine grew after I thought I was done too.
Jessica: becoming a woman is rough :-/
me: It really is.
I think it was like a year or two ago I grew from an A cup to a B cup.
It was really weird.
Because Brandon pointed it out.
And then my mom did.
And then I bought some new bras.
Jessica: haha
your breasts have quite the tale.
me: I know!
And then they get groped by Matt and dubbed sneaker boobs.
I feel like my boobs have been talked about too much within our group.
John has also taken to calling them the undercover immaculates.
