Since my dad should be home in by Tuesday I will submit the following for your enjoyment:
Facebook's birthday notification email alerted me to the fact that the girl I had/have the crush on from my last year at Cal Poly has the same birthday as my mom. This is the brunette with the radiant blue eyes (which is what caught my eye in the first place). The thing was, she looks a lot like my mom did when she was young. And she is quite religious, like my mom. Oh, and she is now at grad school near where my parents grew up... In short, she is the girl my mom keeps prodding me to meet [it is not hard to tell she wants grandkids].
Now before you go and say it, I did talk to her, and she is now a couple thousand miles away. We went for a walk back in the poly canyon woods with our mutual [female] friend but nothing became of it and I got super busy on senior project stuff. But I know that the religion issue would create a good deal of tension after not very long, if my mom is any indication.
It is just really spooky how similar she is to my mom. It freaked me out seeing that birthday email.
Anyway, like I told Dave, right now I am in a very selfish phase (aside from looking after my father) and I am just fine with that. I want to play with my own money for a while since this is a new situation for me. Not really looking for companionship. Just a fun car. And maybe I want to show off too.
