$4 beers WTF
chips for dinner, commiserating with fellow wounded soldier over bruised hearts and egos
8pm messages this time
hanging out with the other guy, deciding then that the 8pm message really wasn't necessary but it's too late now
inviting people to sit on your pseudo-date, realising what you've done and telling them that it wasn't a great idea to invite them over, can you please leave now?
