ROFL! You guys are so good with the names! I took a few of the gnomes down, but there will be more I assure you, and I will use your names for them too. I have an abracadabra gnome too. I think I'll name him Rincewind. lol
Ok, backing up......
Dear Gran's Diary, (giggle). I know, I know! I'm sooo bad hacking into her private space this way! Anyway, I had such exciting news to share, and I'm really not sure I can let Dad know about this YET, but I just HAD to tell someone!
Well, you know I've been really good about my grades and all, right? Star student, that's me! At the moment I've completed all of what Dad calls the "Black Ops" just by being a kid and a teen in school! Yay me~~! Dad and I spent a lot of time together making sure this was happening because he wanted me to be able to choose a really great trait for me.
Well, all that was great but ya know, you just can't kiss a dad the same way you can kiss a boy friend! Yeppers! Ok, details..... remember I had this op where I had to befriend, be buddy system, with this kid in school? His name was Jude Dotson. Nice kid but a Loser, not to mention really not the brightest crayon in the box. Anyway, I kind of stuck with him. I figured he'd be a good best friend, and we did become best friends! (My first that wasn't just family, which doesn't count anyways.) Soooo, time went on and we talked a lot and I found out he was really pretty interesting. He is a virtuoso like me and our signs are compatible and he is too cute for words! I mean.....that long, blonde hair! So, one day I asked him to come home with me from school. You know, just hang out.
So, since he usually looked kind of sad and lost, I started out by brightening his day.
This really seemed to work well, because he perked up and started to chat with me.
I was really getting into this guy! I kinda hoped he was into me too. So, next step, ask him his sign!
Compatible! Things moved along fairly well from there! Can you tell he's actually smiling at me?
He was definitely looking better and better, and I told him so. I guess no one had complimented him much in his life because he really lit up when I told him he was handsome and had a great personality. My flirting with him seemed to be going very well so finally, I gave him a hug! He actually liked it and didn't pull away or anything! I was so scared. I'm not usually this bold, but well, he was so shy I knew he would never make a move!
Then, I did it. I confessed a big attraction toward him! GULP!
I was pretty nervous about this. Most boys would just say, "Oh dear! It's getting late. Gotta go!", and I'd never see them again. But Jude, dear, sweet Jude, just took it in stride and admitted he was attracted to me too! Imagine!!! My FIRST boyfriend! So, of course, with the road clear, I took my courage in my hands and did it! I asked to go steady with him!
I take it this meant, yes?
(sigh) I'm so happy!!! So, we danced awhile and if you notice, you'll see someone else, (Gogo Gnome) approved all the moves.
Rats! Gran's coming! See ya later! (closes books and looking innocent goes to practice her guitar)
"Whoo Hoo! Go! Go! Gnomes! hehehe. Now I can really cut some moves! And they think all we're good for is making the gardens grow! HAH!"
