The fight with Steve raged on. He wouldn't talk to me, so I just stopped trying to make peace. It was really annoying and the longer he didn't talk to me the more I realized how little I cared if he actually did talk to me. I mean, what was the point of trying to make peace when I knew that all it would lead to was yet more arguments?

Drummergirl: I dunno what the fuck is wrong w/steve

Stacixoxo: Uh…he's fine w/me

Drummergirl: He's INFURIATING

Stacixoxo: Can I say something w/o u getting mad at me?

Drummergirl: Maybe?

Stacixoxo: I think you still like steve.

Drummergirl: OH HELL NO

Stacixoxo: U sure about that?

Drummergirl: staci? I love EVAN. My boyfriend

Stacixoxo: Sure logan

ARGH how is it that people always manage to piss me off when I'm seeking relief from my anger? Jeez!

The next day in school, just to add to my agony, my friend Shana told me that Steve called me fat which is just lovely considering I'm like uber sensitive about my weight.

Stacixoxo: Did you hurt steve for caling u fat yet?

Drummergirl: noooo….

FMAguru: He did WHAT?
Drummergirl: he called me fat

FMAguru: would like to kill steve

Drummergirl: Can I watch? LMFAO

About three days went by and I stood my ground. I wouldn't talk to Steve and he wouldn't talk to me either. The Thursday before spring break however, the freak decided to open his big mouth in an email (I had blocked him so he couldn't instant message me to apologize cuz I'm just mean like that).

"Okay, well I was gonna send you an IM and give you individual thoughts while you gave me angered feedback, but you weren't on so w/e. Anyways I suppose I owe you an apology, and I'm inclined to give you a degree of congratulations. Regardless of what you think, I was taking my chance to attempt to get you to not be a pushover. And at least in this case you weren't and didn't apologized because I appeared to be being an ass. So really I guess I just have to say "good for you" and get on with life. I don't really expect you to stand up to your parents- parents are an entirely different thing to stand up against, and 9/10 of the time I have a hard time arguing with them, let alone winning. Well w/e. Just wanted to make amends with you before break. Won't be a band practice since dave isn't gonna be in town.

Steve"

HA! He apologized! does a lurid happy dance.
