Drunk IMing is Bad

Last night was a fun night that allowed me to test my Irish drinking tolerance. I kept encouraging the guys I was with to keep up with me, but they could barely hang. Beer is good. Anyhow, I wrote a drunken post last night. Most people take to drunk dialing (my mom, haha), but lately, I have been drunk IMing and apparently drunk blogging. So now I will write about something that has been happening.

I recently gave a positive example of two of my friends dating. So here's a negative example. There is a guy (lets call him G), who I have hooked up with in the past (more than once) and we are casual friends. Now, G is fairly charming and therefore untrustworthy. Even so, I have always been a fan of his. He ended up talking to my best friend, R, at a frat party. R has been very wild the last few times we have gone out. Looking out for her best interests, I advised her not to hook up with G. She said she wasnt going to anyhow. But then, she went over and told G what I had said to her. G accuses me of 'cockblocking'.

Some time later, G asks my permission to invite R to a Clippers game. I told him he could invite anybody he wants to any event. Hours later, R calls me to talk about the situation. Basically, I am not going to tell her what to do. I do feel weird about the situation, but its not my decision. She went. I was dissapointed, because if the situation were reversed, I would not have gone.

If G just wanted to be friends with her, I would have been invited to hang out with them. If the situation is purely physically motivated, than it shouldnt happen, its not worth the awkwardness. If R has feelings, I am concerned that she would get hurt. If there exists feelings on both sides, then they should definitely date. It is rare for two people to have genuine feelings for each other at the same time, and that opportunity should not be passed up. But I doubt thats the case.

In conclusion, my friendship with R is complicated now, and I am not such a fan of G anymore. Drama sucks.

Also: I finished finals! I am concerned for a grade though, because I sit in the back row of space tech class every day. The professor, in spite of all my efforts, knows my name. I was the first person to turn in my final, and could not get the stapler to work. The professsor noticed, and there was nothing wrong with the stapler, it was very embarrassing. I am afraid he may deem someone who cant operate a stapler, unable to design satellites.

I kinda want to see this drunken post. Don't worry about the stapler, engineers are the ones that push when the door says "pull."
