xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxXXXXXXXXXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Wednesday April 15 8:05AM- Aragorn is still AWOL. This is very irresponsible of him.
8:30- Frodo has arrived with cherries. 8:40- New dilemma. How can I give Arwen cherries from ARAGORN if there is no Aragorn present?
8:50- Frodo has agreed to cover for me while I hunt down Aragorn.
10:30- I finally tracked down Aragorn at a bar drinking away his sorrows with Miller Lite. I had him half way out the door before the bartender stopped me and said that, unless someone paid for the 20 bottles of Miller-20 bottles! My GOD!- Aragorn had consumed weren't paid for, we weren't going anywhere. I told him to back off (In MUCH stronger words) and threw 3 Twenties in his face. When finally home I was forced to tell Arwen Aragorn was asleep because, as unbearable as Arwen is, I couldn't bear to tell a pregnant woman that her husband, unable to bear her ranting, had gone out and consumed sixty dollars worth of liquor and had his friend pay for it (Note to self, he owes me for the Aspirin AND Miller now.) and take care of his wife while he was out because said friend is gullible. At least she enjoyed the cherries……
Thursday April 16 I was late for work again. This time the coffee cup in the microwave had it note. It read: YOUR LATE AGAIN!- Tasha, Mike, Lucas, and Jennifer Really? I am? Are you sure? I thought I was early.
Well, at least the coffee was good. Love Hazelnut!
Friday April 16 Things are looking up. I met a beautiful girl (elf) today. I should start at the beginning.
I actually found myself an hour early this morning (what in the world?) so I went to Starbucks to get coffee for colleagues as a thank you for all the times they've done so for me when I'm late. Well, I'd just ordered the final Mocha Latte when someone reached across the counter and took it before I could. The coffee-thief was about to get away when I called "That's mine!" I was met with the most beautiful pair of brown eyes I've ever seen.
"Sorry," said the coffee-thief, handing it back. "I'll wait for the next one."
I just stared. Coffee-thief stared back. A long pause.
"Hi," I said.
"Hi," replied coffee-thief. More staring.
"Your coffee's ready," said the teenager behind the counter. I came to my senses. "Right. Coffee." I said, grabbing cardboard tray thing. I counted them mentally. 'One. Two. Three. Four. Five including the one in my hand. One extra.
"Looks like that IS mine," decided coffee-thief. She took it from me and looked expectant probably for an apology.
"Sorry," I replied. "Say, um, do you want to get together sometime?" Woah, where'd that come from?
"Okay." Okay? Well, this is better than I expected. "We can have coffee," she said, nodding to her latte. I got the feeling she was making fun of me. Who doesn't? She stuck a card on top of Tasha's Irish Kiss and left Starbucks. The card said:
Evelyn Firestone
Interior Designer
Phone: (543) 555-6743
Fax: (543) 555-8937
And that is how I got a date for Saturday night. The only date I've had in the past two years. And the sad part? Arwen will most likely kill me with comments.
Okay guys. What did you think? I'm sorry the whole date-asking-out thing was so pitiful. I really suck at writing those things. Please let me know what I can improve on and what you'd like to see happen between Legolas and Evelyn. Okay. Ready….Set… Review!
