		<description>[...] And another one is Monalee, or Manolo as she was. We started off on the wrong foot, publicly and in private. She thought I was a pompous ass, but I say I was just new in town and nervous. Then she went to the States and I forgot about her except the occasional bumping into&#8217;s at Quiz or what. Then we started talking and that was just normal until she asked me to play Scrabble. I have been playing Scrabble since I was 5 or 6. Even younger. Our family Scrabble board still has ink stains when I drew on it and got a thorough yelling at. Monalee thoroughly trounced me, which gave me newfound and lasting respect for her. We were playing online and I was cheating like it was my job but she still molested me in the worst way possible. [...]</description>

		<description>[...] Now, most people reading blogs are doing it for dramatic pleasure. My friends and family may like to see pictures of me happy, but casual visitors are more interested if I&#8217;m getting my ass kicked, fighting with Morquendi, or not getting laid. My most tangible memories of this site are fights, flamewars and general disasters. This isn&#8217;t a choice as much as a natural property of human attention that drama has evolved to exploit. Drama is, essentially, an artificial representation of life such that you can fit it in an amphitheatre. Modern technology, however, makes it possible to watch life itself - hence the popularity of Reality TV, blogs, etc. The stories are a bit messier, but they still succeed or fail as dramas.

		<description>I hate when people  call me when I&#039;m trying to sleep.  Some bitch called me at  morning at 5 am on Sunday morning and woke my sleeping hungover ass up: 

WTF?! I&#039;m deep into a reeeally nice dream (all I know is it felt really good) when I&#039;m startled by the sound of the stupid fucking ringtone I chose for myself. In two seconds I open my eyes and reach for the phone, thinking it could be something important, like Lanta&#039;s brother  needs to be bailed out of jail or my dad is in the hospital. But noooooo, it&#039;s her,that stupid bitch. She dialed the wrong fucking phone number and woke my ass up. On a day that I was supposed to be able to sleep until at least nine, no less. 

So I can forgive you for dialing the wrong number-we&#039;ve all done it-but at 6 am I&#039;d expect at least a sincere apology for disrupting my REM like you did. Did I get that? No. Her response after my sleepy, breathy, &quot;you have the wrong number&quot; was a cheery &quot;oh!&quot; and click. That&#039;s it. OH?! What the fuck?! Is she so entrenched in her own life that she  doesn&#039;t realize that not everyone is bright eyed and bushy tailed at 6 am? Is she  so self-involved that when she  call&#039;s someone and disrupts their sleep she  doesn&#039;t even know it?! How fucking sad for her and for everyone who has to put up with her! 

She  is  so lucky that I still, at 25 years old, have an ounce of compassion in my black little heart, because if I didn&#039;t, I&#039;d post her number on here for everyone to fuck with  in a Paris Hilton address book kind of way. 

Hope she sleeps well.</description>

		<description>hmmm. sounds to me like a case of fatal attraction. you dont want to like someone, but you do. 

somehow, this seems like the type of &#039;hitting on&#039; one does when they&#039;re really small... when you have a crush on someone when you&#039;re about 12 or 13, dont you make it a point to be really mean and nasty to them?

basiically, in my opinion, seeing as she actually bothered texting you etc, she is attracted to you in a way that&#039;s annoying, but never the less inevitable. :) she&#039;s actually making an effort to SHOW you her distaste, which means there is no distaste at all. if she really hated you, she wouldn&#039;t give a damn, right? the best way to gall someone you hate is to not think about them. at all. like in casablanca, when someone says &quot;you despise me, don&#039;t you?&quot; and humphrey bogart replies &quot;well if i gave it any thought, i probably would&quot;. 

my conclusion : manolo likes you. or wants you. she&#039;s just TRYING (and failing!) to play &#039;hard to get&#039;. 

ps - what kind of name is manolo anyway?!</description>
