It's hard to reveal; there's something about you

Thursday night, I went to Dragon's Lair after working another 10 - 5 shift, as well as doing the deposit and taking it to the bank. Got there and we did 5 player Settlers of Catan with Seafarers thrown in. We finally taught Brett and Michael how to play, and we really got into it. I was doing fairly well - constantly tied with Matt R for first place.

I was *really* hyper the whole time as well, because Lilie said she would probably stop by if she got out of work early. Every time the door buzzer would ring, I'd go running over to the door to see who it was. And lo and behold, it was her (eventually). The guys tried to get me to stop, to no avail (of course). The funny thing is that I'm still not very good at recognizing her from a distance, so when it was her, I still went back to my seat like normal. She came down into the cave and something along the lines of "You ADD child". Or something like that.

She told us that she was going to a concert with her friend, so she'd only be there for a little bit. If I'm reading this correctly, and I'm not entirely sure that I am, she stopped by to see me for a bit. Or something like that. We talked for a bit while playing, then she eventually had to go. I walked her out to her car, and we talked more out there. I told her about a barbacue type get together Kenny was having at his place - he had previously invited me, and I asked if I could bring a date or something - "Lilie?" "Yeah." "Go for it." - and asked her if she wanted to go. She seemed fairly enthusiastic about it, so I told her I'd call her tomorrow (Friday) after talking to Kenny with more information. We embraced again, then she left (I believe it was at this point she made a comment about her being a 'huggy person'. Which rocks.)

Friday, class was fun. Sort of. I actually played no DDR, even though the machine was working. I don't mean just a few games, I mean, quite literally, NO DDR. This may be the first class day (except that Monday last week when it wasn't working) that I haven't played DDR. So anyway, I called Kenny when I got home, and he said that because the weather looked ominous, they had postponed the barbacue and were getting together about 9 or so at his place. He gave me directions - he lives out on 21 - and I told him I'd see him there. Relayed as much to Lilie.

9:00 rolled around I and rolled out to Kenny's. I was the first Sonic person to get there, though there were five (or so) of his other friends there. We sat inside and talked for a bit about things, mostly work related - me becoming a manager, the new carhops, the various people quitting, crew unity, a surprisingly wide range of topics. We eventually went back outside, and Lilie eventually pulled up.

I just fell asleep and woke up in time to leave for work, so I'll have to continue this later.
