Please Don't Lean on my Car.

GREETINGS TO ALL! I'm now enrolled in an online speech class (yeah, I don't really get it either) and I am thrilled to begin. Its one thing to post my thoughts on the Internet, but in front of an actual audience will be quite exciting. Sorry it's been many moons since the last blog post. Actually, I'm not sorry. I am no push over (I actually really am unfortunately, don't use it against me, or I'll shun/curse/kill you).

So, for all who know me well (not that many so I'll share what I secretly mean), you know that I enjoy my share of Sonic greatly. Whether I go for just a large Diet Cherry Limeade, or maybe a snack size Chili Frito Wrap (my mouths watering), I go to Sonic at least 3-4 times a week. Recently, I took the doors off of my jeep, Gretchen (she's a tomboy), and went to sonic. I pulled into one of the slots (I'm not sure why because I always go drive-thru....in case you were wondering....) and ordered a hot dog....yeah. The car hop comes out to deliver me my grub (he was decently attractive) and he has this grin on his face. Not the grin that has been previously mentioned (the OH MY GOSH I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU IN SO LONG grin) but a "Hey. Sup?" kind of grin. I decided to take this one step-by-step. He began to read my order to me and got all flustered and me being the absolute charmer I am agreed that it was probably correct (it wasn't). So then he leans on my car. I don't care if someone leans on Gretchen, but when you do it in such a lame-I'm-trying-to-pick-you-up-lets-go-on-a-date-that-isn't-sonic-maybe-a-movie-maybe-cascios-oh-wait-you-work-there-so-that-wouldn't-work-out-maybe-not-oh-crap-I'm-still-leaning-on-your-car kind of way, it irks me. So, as he is leaning on my car he says "Yeah...I really like your jeep. You should get like a lift and maybe a grill guard. I drive that Toyota Tundra over there, I haven't gotten anything done to it yet but I'm going to." I wasn't going to be rude but I was absolutely starving at this point so I responded with something like "Yeah, my first step was the doors, I did this about two days ago..." His response "HAHAHAHAHAHHA! You're so funny and cool!" Ok. Not really. But he did tell me his name, which will not be mentioned. Let's go with Steve. "My names Steve." Being the awkward person I am, I didn't think to tell him mine so I just said it was nice meeting you. Then I drive away and as I round the corner he was there waving at me with his tray.

This isn't him but I like this picture.
I told my friends about it (Mallory, Grayson, Haley, and Hannah) and we all got a good laugh, because this kind of thing (not that boys talk to me often but that I run into extremely awkward situations) happens to me frequently. A couple of days later, Haley and I went to Walgreen's to pick up some medication. The medication (Aciphex) sounds like something different (Ass-Effects) so we waited until the two people that were already at the counter were done or close to. Finally, I looked at Haley and said "Do you know that guy? I'll just go ask for it." She didn't know him but I went up there by myself anyways. I'm standing in line behind two people who came off as a young couple (young meaning close to my age, not like a 12 year old couple, which would be strange) and the boy turned around and looked at me and said "Hey! I know you." Oh gosh. "I was your car hop at Sonic the other day! Remember? Steve?" WHY ME?!?!?! "Yeah! I remember you, my name's Sydney by the way." I'm about to ask for Ass-Effects in front of Steve. Wonderful. I was still in my work clothes which consists of a t shirt and a tennis skirt with tennis shoes. He asks me "So do you go to Loyola? With the whole uniform thing?" I replied..."I'm actually a junior in college." My answer disappointed him it appeared. The whole time, his "girlfriend" was standing there getting her medicine, probably not Aciphex, and he nudged her and said "Hey, this is Sydney, I car hopped for her the other day." This is strange. "Nice to meet you" "Nice to meet  you too? (I don't know who you are)". "This is my sister." Oh ok. Already meeting the family. Yay. See ya later.

Needless to say, I've had to avoid my favorite Sonic that's closest to my house. HOW SAD FOR ME. Maybe I'll build the courage to go back. Maybe he'll propose to me. Hmm. We'll see. I'll update yall later. HAPPY THURS! Bii.
