intros...completely nerve-racking. i'm sociable enough & definitely not a wallflower, but it's something about meeting one or more persons for the first time. will they like me? do i have eyeliner goop in the corner of my eye? do i have something in my teeth? dammit, knew i shouldn't have tried that spinach dip first...
first impressions...sheesh, that's heavy stuff. i don't want to be overly-friendly & seem fake or stalkerish. i totally can't do cool, so the whole breezy thing would make me seem bored or just plain bitchy.
nooo, instead of being snotty or bored or (god forbid) cool, i immediately turn into "baby!" you know...from 'dirty dancing' when she walks up to the big house where all the hip kids are, & the only thing she can muster is "i carried a watermelon." yep, that would be me. instant dorkiness surfacing at your service...pleeeased to meet cha!
i mean, eventually you will find that i'm that unfiltered, off-the-wall friend that you never even thought you wanted! & i do have plenty of thoughts & randoms to share, but for this moment.right here..."i carried a watermelon!"
