oh geez.
i still have "white trash" dude programmed in my phone. he called last night for the first time in like 7 years. i didn't answer it, and waited until this morning to check his voicemail. i was thinking it would be something like "hey, can we talk? i'm sorry if my comment upset you"....you know, what most people would say. and trust me, he knows his comment upset me, considering i blocked all of his various personal and band profiles on myspace, and retorted to his comment with a very sarcastic and upset message.
anyway, no, his voicemail wasn't what a "normal" person would say. all he wanted to do was let me know his band was playing last night (he called at 8:30 pm), a week night, 120 miles away from where i live.
i think this must be another example of "Let's Play Pretend It Didn't Happen"...(and "you can go right back to being my mirror, my NS, just like nothing's changed").
what's funny is i wouldn't be receptive to such an invite, anyway...as i said, i live in a totally different city, it was a week night, there was no warning...AND, the last time he invited me to go watch his band play, his guitarist insisted i leave the room and pay to get in. now, not sure who here is familiar with the "local band" scene....but, where i come from, if you've played music with someone and dated someone before, known them since high school, and they specifically invite you to see their band, AND you've made multiple efforts to get their band a venue to play at in your town, you DO NOT make that person pay to get in to see your show. that's just horribly obtuse and bad manners.
so. why would i go see this dude's band play after all of the above, at the last minute? complete arrogance, i tell you. hmph!
you know, in a way, i'm kind of glad he didn't try to apologize or anything. that would have made it more difficult for me to continue ignoring him and keep him out of my life.
