Diary Entry: December 10, Age 15
As part of my Advent Calendar project, I am presenting excerpts from my actual teenage diaries!
[a reminder: i was in love with dane for more than a thousand days in high school. for almost every one of those days, he ignored me. almost.]
At play rehearsal, Dane came up to me and asked “what are you doing after rehearsal?” I managed a “nothing,” and he asked me if I wanted to go out for a drink, knowing damn well I would say no (because of the drinking.) But then he said “Well, what about a Coke?” I didn’t say anything so he walked away. I spent several moments in shock. Was he serious? I THINK HE WAS!!!! I am, however, still in shock.
I love him.
UGH! I have this burning need to elbow 15 year old Hambox really hard right now and grumble out of the corner of my mouth, “sy ysss, drk!”
