Woot, I'm on break in a computer cluster on campus at TIP. My class is absolutely amazing, I have fanboys, and Bassett won Quadfest again. For the most part, things are going great.

Except for Jeff.

I met Jeff on Wear A Skirt Wednesday when he was dressed as a Playboy bunny. I mean, I wear cat ears every day, I had to pose for a picture with him. We got to talking and he seemed pretty cool, so we started to hang out fairly often.

Then the dance happened.

Aeris and I were doing our usual thing, dancing by ourselves on the edge of crowd, when Jeff came over. The three of us danced together for a while until "Hey There Delilah" came on. I don't even like that song. Anyway, we were doing this whole awkward triangle thing where we all kind of stand around and make fun of the song. Then Jeff grabs me and before I know it, we're slow dancing. Really close together. Aeris wandered off to the side of the quad awkwardly, and I, having nothing else to look at, stared into Jeff's eyes.

Big mistake.

Next thing I know, he's kissing me. Very hairily, might I add. The song ends, we part, and Aeris comes back. We all start dancing again, but after a while, I can't take it anymore and I ask Aeris if we can go inside for a bit. We do and I slump down on a couch and cry. After a little bit I'm able to tell her what's wrong, but soon after, Ed comes in with Jeff. Great. They sit down next to us and Ed tries to comfort me while Jeff sits awkwardly. After he goes away, Aeris helps me to explain the problem, and in the meantime a few other people come by and try to help as well (I love TIPsters). I didn't even do the Yatta, I was so freaked out.

So I spend the night angsting and seriously considering leaving TIP. For the first time ever. The next morning I go crazy waiting for cell phone hours to start so I can call Jordan and tell him what happened. He takes it extremely well and that half of the problem is solved.

But I still don't know what to tell Jeff.
