There Was Way Too Much Punching Last Night...
gorr:
A fun night.
Me and my giant bottle of Chimay.
Very many jello shots.
So so so so so much punching…
THE ROOM. COMPLETE WITH DUDE DRESSED AS CHRIS-R!!!!! SO MUCH SPOON THROWING!
And my first time being honest-to-god punched in the stomach. Turns out that this hurts a lot? It wasn’t out of pure malice so it wasn’t TOO hard. But it also was totally not a friendly-joke-just-kiddin-around...

[Internet Girl]: are you from illinois?
Dave Green: yeah, up around chicago
Dave Green: how about you, originally from new york?
[Internet Girl]: yup
[Internet Girl]: long island
Dave Green: very cool. haven't been out to new york city in forever.
Dave Green: must have been 12 or so...
[Internet Girl]: i don't go as often as i should being that its a 40 minute train ride
Dave Green: yeah, i know the feeling. same thing with chicago for me most of my life.
Dave Green: probably go there as much now as i did when i lived 15 minutes away.
[Internet Girl]: i've only been to chicago once when i was 8ish
Dave Green: hah.
Dave Green: well, here's to worthwhile cities we probably can't get a good picture of in our heads.
Dave Green: also, here's to awkward cheers.
[Internet Girl]: indeed
Dave Green: so what kind of art do you work on?
[Internet Girl]: you are much better at this internet conversating than i am
Dave Green: hah
Dave Green: howso?
(Throughout this entire conversation she has been doing this little thing where for easily 30 seconds before each of her responses she would start and stop typing, erasing and starting over—showing up for me as a rapidly appearing and disappearing thought bubble. It's pretty tough to be cute online. For some reason, this was adorable to me.)
Dave Green: hahaha
[Internet Girl]: lol
[Internet Girl]: because of that
Dave Green: i can see the little thought bubble
Dave Green: it's going crazy.
[Internet Girl]: i keep typing and then erasing
[Internet Girl]: haha
Dave Green: just type it, i will not be offended
Dave Green: and then, you know, if you say something dumb just undercut yourself immediately afterward like i do.
Dave Green: trust me, it's solid gold.
[Internet Girl]: i feel like i'm in 5th grade again going into chatrooms behind my parents back
Dave Green: hahaha
[Internet Girl]: except then iwas 10 saying i was 20
[Internet Girl]: now i'm 50 saying i'm 20
Dave Green: well, at least i know you've always been a liar
Dave Green: so, consistency at least.
[Internet Girl]: you've got to have some constants in your life
Dave Green: absolutely.
Dave Green: mine is that i only talk to people online.
Dave Green: that and that i never leave my apartment.
[Internet Girl]: why is that?
Dave Green: fear of the outside
Dave Green: i'm sorry, i think i'm veering into that awkward, "can't tell if he's being serious" tone
Dave Green: so, you know...
Dave Green: i leave my house.
[Internet Girl]: i made my roommate read that
[Internet Girl]: i was a little concerned
Dave Green: haha
Dave Green: i'm glad i'm being watched.
Dave Green: allllright...
Dave Green: another time i should have just erased.
[Internet Girl]: i laughed
Apparently Tumblr has me figured out.
Ok, I wasn’t going to click on any of the guys anyway. You caught me.
*Yes, I checked that one that looks like it might be a guy. No, it is not.

Tuesday, January 20, 2004: I don’t know, im a little weirded out. Me and [her] seem cool, and we have talked a lot about what is going on, but part of me feels like were just being civil. Zach and Tim think that its not going to work out as a break, maybe it won’t. I don’t know whether or not its just because im hurt subconsciously or because I have felt like things were almost going to be over...
Transparency isn't sexy.
It’s useful. Interesting. Beautiful, maybe.
