Ramblings from the anti-social

• At trivia on Monday I talked to my friend Bret's girlfriend for the first time. We'd exchanged a few hellos and what nots before, but we had never actually had a real conversation. She sat next to me and we bonded over Edward. As it turns out, she's a really cool chick.

• On Wednesday, I went to Krysti and Billy's for a Rock Band party where, thankfully, they did not force me to participate. I toured the house, pet the sweet kitty who I was told doesn't usually like to be pet by strangers, and continued bonding with Erin over Twilight, and then Buffy and Linkin Park.

• I realized last night while talking to Ash for over an hour that I haven't seen her in almost a year. And though we email and comment on each others blogs frequently, I haven't spoken to her in that long as well. Hearing the Georgia twang creep softly back into her voice when she got really excited about something made me smile. It's been way too long and I've missed her way too much.

Almost Perfect

We had a perfect score through the first three rounds of trivia. Bonus questions included. Things were looking up. Then Adam, the trivia host said that if out team got all questions right in the last category we would be the first team in two years to have a perfect game. So naturally, we were screwed.

And then, we got the last set of questions. Our confidence level was high. We felt pretty good about most of the answers. We at least had answers for all of them but the bonus. The questions had to do with giving the nickame of a convict, whose real name we were given. While all of us threw out any names of criminals we could think of Micha, who never talks, said was that the guy who escaped from Alcatraz? None of us knew. So we put some other answer down. We should know by now that when Micha answers, it's right. He only answers when he knows he's right.

So on our almost perfect round, the only question we missed was the bonus question on the very last round.
