So much has happened. Sorry I haven't written for awhile.

So I went on my date with Carrie. It was one of the single greatest experiences of my life. I met her at the show she played. I was there early, of course, since I was so nervous. I sat down and got a mocha latte, and sat there reading some poor teenage angst filled poetry that someone had written on the table. THen she entered. She was wearing all black, whcih normally I would think looked like someone was trying too hard to be a bohemian hipster, but for her, it worked. She looked fantastic. I could feel my hands beginning to sweat as she walked over to my table. She sat down, and we made fairly awkward conversation for awhile. I never really know what to say in those situations, so I always think that simply being quiet is the best option. That way maybe I come of sort of mysterious. :)

After awhile of sipping our respective drinks, she had to go perform. She walked over to the smallish stage, and as she started playing "the Anchor" song by Bjork, the whole place seemed to go silent. She played an hour long set, and it was incredible. She looked gorgeous, and her voice was sounding even better than I remembered it. After her show, we decided to go get a bite to eat. We went to an Applebee's that wasn't to far away. She got chicken strips and a side salad with blue cheese and french dressing. Cute as usual. I got a Appetizetr sampler as a meal, something I've done since I was a little kid. Their spinach artichoke dip is pretty good, and I love motzerella sticks. So we talked, and as the evening went on, I finally started feeling comfortabel enough to talk about myself. I told her about my Dad, and she seemed genuinely concerened and interested. She might have been acting, but it was nice to have someone listening. It was about 11:30 when we finally decided to leave. I walked her to her car, and we talked for another half hour outside in the cold, because neither of us wanted to go home. Finally she sadi "well, I should go" and she leaned over and kissed me on the cheek. I was completely petrified, but it was so great. And then she said she'd call me Sunday (tonight) night. I can;'t wait.

Other than that, not too much new to report. I'm happy, which is something I haven't said for awhile. I hope I get to actually have a real girlfriend now. I just have to try my best not to screw this up like i have everything else. I'll write an update after I talk to her, and let ya'll know how it went!
