Yep – the stables where we board Indy have many cats on the premises to keep the mice from eating the grains intended for the horses. None of the cats are skinny.

Ok so I didn’t ask her out today so I’m not going to the dance obviously. But what I found weird is that although I had resigned myself to the fact that I wouldn’t see her at all today, I passed her three times in the hallway today and she was alone and she smiled at me a few times. I just couldn’t bring myself to ask her though. Ugh I’m such a weak person
UFT, first of all, I’m sure you’re not weak, just shy, which I can totally sympathise with. I thought of something that might help you– though I’ve no idea why anyone would accept dating advice from myself, as I’ve exactly negative 100% experience 
but anyways, I do know what it’s like to be frightened to death of asking someone something which really ought to be quite simple, and is for other people to whom interacting with other humans comes quite easily.
Anyway, perhaps you should have a specific line, and practise it beforehand, so when the fateful moment comes you don’t have to think of what to say, you can just out with your previously prepared line. Just a suggestion, to accept or discard as you wish.

Offline I was sitting here nursing my cold feeling Deep Blue and bored (not in the AD40 ‘you must play the game’ way, because I have plenty of things I could be doing, but mentally bored, in that none of those things appealed to me). I went over to YouTube and checked out a song that had been recommended to me, but I found that deeper blue. Anyway, the piano in it made me think of All Things Must Pass (the song), so I went and listened to that, and as soon as I heard that distinctive coppery-gold voice singing about sunrises not lasting all morning I felt brighter immediately. It’s not always gonna be this grey. 
On second thoughts, perhaps Blow Away would have been more appropriate, but George is George.

Just because you don’t have a girl to go with doesn’t mean you can’t go to the dance, do singles not go to your dances? I know at my debs/prom whateverhaveya (I didn’t go to it because *beep* society and their expectations of me- that and it was too expensive), that about half of the year went (about 40 people) without anyone. You can have just as much fun hanging out with your friends than having to be with someone the whole night that you don’t really even know that well (as are about half of these couples at dances as they don’t want to go alone- and pick the first person they see. They spend the entire night awkwardly trying to start conversation and slowly trying to escape from the other).
Besides having a girlfriend is fun and all that but you don’t have to chase after every single girl that you think is “nice” or “friendly” or “pretty”, you don’t want to come off as desperate, which is quite unattractive. If you’re meant to go out with a person, it’ll all fall into place eventually, even if it takes more than a week 
.
The next time some social-outing (is that what the kids say these days?) happens just go up and ask her. Literally as has been said before the worst she can say is “no” or “sorry I’m going with someone else” and that’ll be it, if she says anything like “why the hell would I go out with you?” (which she wouldn’t ’cause you seem like a very nice guy), then she’s somebody who you don’t want to hang out with anyway because they’re a mean *beep*. Being a girl, I know if a guy I knew plucked up the courage to ask me to a dance I’d be more inclined to say “yes” than “no” because he has:
A) The balls (and I say that in the nicest way) to do something which does require quite a bit of courage
B) He didn’t go the coward’s way out of getting one of his friends’ to ask for him (I don’t know if it happens over where you are but here it’s generally the lad’s friend who would go up and say “will ya go out with my friend?” (they generally ask for more vulgar requests but I’ll keep this child-friendly), I always say “if he wants to go out with me, he should grow a pair and ask me himself”.
Girls don’t instantly go rabid whenever they don’t want to go out with you (lest I hope they don’t )

Nothing much has been going on except school. I got my report card for term 1 today. All A’s. I’m not to bad at this, eh?
Another thing: new info on the threat. The kid was the old superintendents son, used to go to my elementary school, moved to my other friends school, and he used to live a couple houses down from me. Oh, the coincidences in life. Also, you wouldn’t be surprised by how many kids in my math class were celebrating today because he was in school, ONLY because, they don’t want to go to school because of him. Also, I saw another strange seeing, of some random camera guy standing across the street from the school, recording the buses pulling into the school (which, if you ask me, isn’t even remotely entertaining). So, that’s really it, nobody talks about anything else except the threat, “WHAT ARE THOOSSEE?”, and “JOHHNN CEEENNNNAAA!”

Offline I was called this morning by a potential employer requesting an interview. I called them back to set it up. The problem is, they wanted it on a real short notice. I didn’t ask the right questions about the position. The more I think about it, the more I think that it isn’t a good fit. I’m probably going to call to cancel tomorrow morning.

Here is a question, where did the sudden resurge in popularity of John Cena in the past year come from? The man has been around forever, I have a WWE Gameboy game where he’s on it for Christ sake. Now friends who have never showed any interest in wrestling or John Cena before are suddenly getting Cena action figures and backpacks and other crap, what’s the deal?
Is it something like UFC and Conor McGregor over here, where barely anyone knew him at the beginning of 2014 bar the few Irish people who actually watched UFC, but the second he becomes very high-ranking everyone is saying “Oh yeah I’ve been watching UFC for years, been supporting McGregor since he started”. No you haven’t you liar, you’re just jumping on the fanboat now 
Oh that and I feel obliged to post
Because of the A’s you got, you remind me of 12 year-old me (and 13 year old me…..14, 15, 16, now… ah crap. I have gotten Cs before (DAMN YOU WOODWORK!), so I’m not a complete nerd, unlike you!

Offline Went to see Spectre yesterday………Writing here rather than movies thread in the hope MMM doesn’t read this….He’s going tonight……I don’t want my positive opinion to in anyway prejudice his……. or be something a contrarian might want to rail against.
Packed lunch time theatre! First time there’s more than 50 people around me in a Thai cinema. That’s down to more than just the hype……Craig’s a great Bond
Had a sofa chair…..a beer, (You can have them in Thailand) popcorn and my date.
I was prepared to be disappointed after the wait……the hype……and the outstanding success of Skyfall. Shouldn’t have worried.
I didn’t think it was Craig’s very best purely because it returns to a gritty version of the old Bond formula but it’s great entertainment ………Which is what they are about.
Long film but time flew.
I’m going again today…….First Class cinema this time. Cocktail……buffet……Pop corn of choice and beer or wine served to you by a waitress. Fully reclining chairs and a blanket.
Then to a little restaurant on the beach…..’Pla tord nam pla’..(Whole fish)…..glass of chardonnay…and ‘Pat a dic dok din’ (sunset).

Offline Thanks @AppleScruffJunior and @Beatlebug for those. It’s not really that I’m asking this girl just because she’s pretty but a couple of my friends said I should date her and my best friend that moved away liked her and hes been telling me a lot about her so there’s that. But I’m not going to the dance alone mostly because I missed the deadline for tickets today but I would be doing nothing there. My friends that are going all have dates or other friends that they would rather hangout with so I’d probably just be that guy standing in the corner. And the next dance is in like February so that’s a ways away. Oh well.
In regards to that John cena thing, that is from this prank call video on YouTube that blew up over the summer where these people from some radio station keep calling this lady and she gets really angry. It’s quite funny but idk why it got popular now because it’s been out for like two years. I saw it back before it was cool

Offline I’ve been to a Foo Fighters concert on Tuesday! I wasn’t really expecting much, not a huge fan, like some of their hits, but good lord, that was one of the best gigs I’ve ever been to! Even when sitting down, Dave Grohl was an amazing frontman. They opened with my favourite song, Everlong and played their hits first. Amazing live band. It was all a bit too loud though. I was there with one of my best friends and we had to leave early to catch the last train home, but I later found out we only missed 2 songs so it’s all good.
