Too bad so sad

I really hate recalling this. Being such a dumb kid. Fawning over this guy who didn’t even know I existed. What a waste of my time.

He had kind of a big head and sandy blonde hair. Not even my type.

It seemed he was forever in a Pittsburgh Penguins jersey with #88 on the back. Mario Lemieux?

We were the same age, in the same grade but not the same school. So whenever our two schools crossed paths for some type of sporting event I was on Ryan watch. Watching him from afar cause lord knows we never spoke a word.

We did go to the same high school but by then he was old news and I was more interested in the dark, brooding, trench coat wearing types.

And after high school I got my revenge when he and I ended up partying together and I turned him down. You’re way too late Ryan. Too bad so sad.

All dressed up with probably nowhere to go, Cmas ’86ish

    That’s the plot of Eugene Onegin, a poem by Pushkin that Chaikovsky later turned into an opera. ♫

    Clearly he was into you, and wore the No. 88 to impress you. Gosh… girls can’t take a hint.

        Glad I could be annoyingly consistent lol. And Bob is the hot one, spiritually.

    Women. A mystery wrapped in an enigma. In the game of ‘ignoring’ he probably had the credits up, but last word often feels better 😉

    (And yes, I stole that phrase from Winston Churchill, I think he was talking about Russia).
