Hello! Thank you for viewing my story. This was an idea I stumbled upon on when I was trolling the Internet and I wanted to see how it would play out so bear with me. I absolutely adore Emmet so I decided to give it a shot.
Wed 5 July (3:18 pm) Hey mate. Y'mind meeting me at 5 rather than 4? I needa make a detour and I forgot to pick up me cousin again at the day care. Me mam's gonna murder me but it ain't me fault little Jack decided to throw up on me again. Can't blame me for being distant an' all.
(3:20 pm) I'm really sorry about your cousin. Judging from your text, he's probably a small toddler. It's a misfortune that he chose to throw up on you. Oh, and you have the wrong number, by the way.
(3:21 pm) Oh my god! I'm sorry! I'm still trying to work this new phone! Never mind.
(3:22 pm) I'm never going to hear that story, am I?
(3:25 pm) You're oddly interested for a stranger... and the sad part is that my cousin is six so the whole throwin' up deal should have been outgrown four years ago.
(3:25 pm) What can I say? You've texted in the right time. I'm stuck in an exceptionally boring study party by myself. You could have well been my savior.
(3:25 pm) Well, studyin' will get you into high and mighty places, I reckon. I have to go! Sorry again!
(3:30 pm) Good bye then, toddler bait!
-0-
Wed 12 July (3:30 pm) I saw a small boy on a child leash and it reminded me of you.
(3:35 pm) ... Who is this?
(3:36 pm) Your wrong number from last week.
(3:38 pm) Really?!
(3:38 pm) Are you studyin' again?
(3:39 pm) And should I be offended by the child leash comment?
(3:42 pm) To answer your questions. 1. Yes 2. Yes 3. No, it was just a mere observation.
(3:42 pm) I don't wanna know what led you to make that observation, seeing as we are complete strangers. So what made you text me again?
(3:45 pm) Just taking a study break and browsing through my history. Then I saw your number. Don't get me wrong, I was going to delete it but then I remembered the child leash.
(3:45 pm) You're weird.
(3:46 pm) At least I'm not the one that gets barfed on by a six-year-old.
(3:47 pm) Again, you're weird.
(3:50 pm) And you're still replying to me, so what does that say about you?
(3:51 pm) Should I change my number then? Are you going to come find me at night and scare me while there's a creepy soundtrack playing?
(3:53 pm) Wow, maybe I should change MY number instead...
(3:54 pm) Well, I have to go and tear this history book apart.
(3:55 pm) Emmet.
(3:55 pm) .. Excuse you?
(3:55 pm) ?! My name is Emmet.
(3:56 pm) Okay, sure, why not?
(3:56 pm) I highly doubt you're going to tell me your name. I knew you would be the serial killer in this equation.
(3:58 pm) Same time, same day next week, Emmet!
(3:58 pm) I feel used.
Phew... well, it's 3:30 in the morning where I'm at so I'm going to get some sleep. I hope you enjoyed the update, I don't really know where I'm going with this.
Have a nice day!

Wed 17 July (3:31pm) Hello there, Emmet!
(3:31 pm) Emmet! Emmet! Emmet!
(3:31 pm) Emmet!
(3:33 pm) Do you like saying me name or..?
(3:34 pm) Oh, hi there!
(3:34 pm) Hi Wrong Number!
(3:34 pm) Ha.
(3:35 pm) Was there somethin' you wanted?
(3:35 pm) No, not really. Just starting where we left off. I've locked my windows every night now..
(3:36 pm) Still a bit weird, I see.
(3:36 pm) You're lucky I am easy going or I would have been offended by your accusation, Mister (?) I'm guessing you're a mister.
(3:37 pm) Well, I woulda been made a lot of fun of if I was a girl. I'm pretty sure not a lot of ladies have the name of Emmet.
(3:38 pm) What if my name was Emmet? Would you have took pity on me?
(3:39 pm) Oh, so you're a girl?
(3:39 pm) I never said I was.. forget about it. So did any children throw up on you in the past week?
(3:40 pm) You take pleasure in my misery, don't you? -.-
(3:40 pm) Maybe just a little bit. Is someone in a bad mood? I'm guessing a toddler DID throw up on you.
(3:40 pm) No.
(3:41 pm) A dog? An armadillo?
(3:41 pm) What?! No!
(3:42 pm) A platypus?
(3:42 pm) Are you okay?
(3:42 pm) All this caffeine is getting to me, I think. I should have stopped on the last four cups or so. So wanna tell me what's going on?
(3:43 pm) Oh, so serial killer to therapist now?
(3:43 pm) It wasn't the correct lifestyle for me, unfortunately.
(3:43 pm) Rosalind
(3:44 pm) Excuse me?
(3:44 pm) My name is Rosalind.
(3:44 pm) Okay, sure, why not?
(3:44 pm) Oh you think you're so clever, don't you?
(3:45 pm) What origin is that?
(3:45 pm) French. So technically we're not strangers anymore so spill.
(3:45 pm) Technically, we're still strangers.
(3:47 pm) Emmet.
(3:50 pm) It's nothing. Just go back to what you were doing before you used me as a distraction.
(3:52 pm) Wow, okay.
(3:52 pm) Sorry if I upset you.
-0-
Wed 24 July(3:28 pm) Hey, I'm sorry about last week.
(3:30 pm) Sticking to our usual time slot, I see.
(3:30 pm) It's our thing!
(3:30 pm) We have a thing?
(3:31 pm) Apparently we do!
(3:31 pm) So?
(3:31 pm) So what?
(3:33 pm) About last week?
(3:33 pm) Oh yeah, that. I was just having a god-awful week.
(3:33 pm) And is it better now?
(3:34 pm) I suppose.
(3:34 pm) We could still talk about it. My offer still stands.
(3:34 pm) It's nothing. It's just personal stuff.
3:34 pm) Emmet.
(3:35 pm) Rosalind.
(3:35 pm) Why do you keep texting me?
(3:39 pm) No, you keep texting me.
(3:39 pm) Well, you're the one that started this conversation. So why?
(3:39 pm) That's what I don't know!
(3:39 pm) Lovely.
(3:42 pm) Fine. I'm behind on my course work (Okay, so I'm a student...details!) and I have so many rehearsals with this group I'm doing and and I'm starting to freak out because I can't get ahead. On top of that, my professor won't let me do any re-takes AND my relationship ended last week... is that what you wanted to know?
(3:43 pm) Did the toddler cheat on you?
(3:44 pm) What?
(3:45 pm) The toddler. You said your relationship ended. Did they cheat on you by throwing up on someone else? I'm sorry, it happens to all of us sometimes. I bet it wasn't personal.
(3:45 pm) Sorry that was inappropriate.
(3:46 pm) Thank you.
(3:47 pm) Are you holding up a big sarcasm sign or something?
(3:47 pm) No, thank you. That actually made me smile.
(3:48 pm) =)
(3:48 pm) Really, Rosalind? A smiley face?
(3:49 pm) What? I get in-eloquent when I'm insecure.
(3:49 pm) Insecure? Aw, how nice.
(3:49 pm) Shut up.
(3:51) Haha, I'm only pullin' your leg.
(3:55 pm) Oh, I have to go now! I have to majorly cram for an exam tomorrow. Next week?
(3:59 pm) =)
Okay, another one done! Thank you for the feedback and I would appreciate it if you kept on keeping on so I know how I'm doing!
Have a nice day!

Wed 31 July (3:33 pm) This is weird, right?
(3:45 pm) Well, hello to you too.
(3:45 pm) Hi.
(3:45 pm) You were saying?
(3:46 pm) Oh. Er, I never really had weekly text dates with a stranger before.
(3:46 pm) Had I known this was a date, I would've worn something else.
(3:46 pm) This is the part when you say, "Oh, god no! You look stunning."
(3:47 pm) Which I do, by the way.
(3:47 pm) I admire your self esteem, Rosalind.
(3:47 pm) And I don't even know what you look like.
(3:48 pm) I know. Details.
(3:48 pm) You were the one that wanted details, if I remember correctly.
(3:48 pm) That may be true but you left me hanging, remember?
(3:50 pm) I did no such thing, missus! You asked me how my god-awful week had been and I merely told you. Nothing more than that, I reckon.
(3:50 pm) And I have no problems with details.
(3:51 pm) Really?
(3:52 pm) Really.
(3:52 pm) I'll remember that... for next time.
(3:53 pm) Why do I get the feeling that you vanish after four pm?
(3:54 pm) Maybe I do, maybe I don't.
(3:54 pm) Are you some kind of afternoon version of the tale Cinderella?
(3:55 pm) Does that make you my fairy godmother then, Emmet?
(3:55 pm) Better that than your evil step mother.
(3:56 pm) Don't be late for your ball!
(3:56 pm) Dork
(3:57 pm) I know. =)
-0- Sun 4 August (12:08 pm) Have you ever walked through Phoenix Park in Dublin and wondered how the trees got there?
(12:15 pm) Okay, that has got to be the strangest text I've ever received.
(12:15 pm) Wait, what makes you think I live in Dublin?
(12:15 pm) And in case you haven't noticed, it's not Wednesday.
(12:17 pm) Just a feeling.
(12:18 pm) A feeling? How on earth could that possibly be a feeling?
(12:18 pm) So tell me, are you in Phoenix Park right now?
(12:19 pm) Why? Are your stalker genes tingling?
(12:19 pm) I thought we were past the serial killer paranoia?
(12:20 pm) I was just wonderin' if you technically could stalk me right now.
(12:20 pm) Is that your weird way of trying to confirm whether I live in Dublin or not?
(12:20 pm) Well, is it working?
(12:21 pm) No.
(12:22 pm) Then nope.
-0-
Wed 7 August (3:01 pm) Can I ask you something?
(3:05 pm) ...I love how you get straight to the point lately. Good afternoon! How are you? I'm fine, thank you.
(3:05 pm) Manners, Emmet.
(3:06 pm) My manners are perfectly fine.
(3:06 pm) Oooookay.
(3:07 pm) Is it personal?
(3:07 pm) What is?
(3:08 pm) Your question.
(3:08 pm) Oh yeah. I suppose so... how old are you?
(3:08 pm) That's what you're going with? That's your big question?
(3:09 pm) I never said it was going to be life-changing, did I?
(3:09 pm) Well... how old do I sound, exactly?
(3:09 pm) I honestly do not know. You give off this repelling feeling, seeing as you let off one sarcastic remark after another.
(3:10 pm) 21?
(3:10 pm) Not exactly.
(3:10 pm) 20.
(3:12 pm) See, I was close. That has to count for something.
(3:12 pm) I'm afraid it doesn't exceed your expectations. A pat on the back, maybe? Anyways... how old are you?
(3:12 pm) Are you asking?
(3:12 pm) Are you always this obnoxious or..?
(3:13 pm) 21. And technically, you're a minor in many countries... so it was nice knowing you.
(3:13 pm) Very funny, Emmet.
(3:14 pm) Okay, so Rosalind, 20, living in Dublin (don't even try to deny it), studying something at a university (?), sarcastic...
(3:14 pm) Close, Emmet, so close.
(3:14 pm) Oh yeah! I forgot snarky!
(3:15 pm) Please remind me why I keep talking to you.
3:15 pm) I'm irresistibly charming and you can't get enough of me? Even through texts?
(3:20 pm) No, that's not it.
(3:22 pm) Hmm. I'm mysterious and you're intrigued?
(3:23 pm) Now you're just embarrassing yourself.
(3:25 pm) Okay, because my texts are the best things about your Wednesdays!
(3:26 pm) Ha! You're really thinking this one through, aren't you?
(3:27 pm) You wish.
(3:30 pm) It's okay, Rosalind, 20, living in Dublin. Let it happen.
(3:32 pm) Now who's being snarky?
(3:32 pm) Now who's in denial?
(3:35 pm) Now who's about to end this conversation?
(3:36 pm) That would be you, correct?
(3:38 pm) See you next week, Emmet!
(3:45 pm) You can't just leave when things are gettin' real.
(3:45 pm) I'm capable of doing a lot of things, just watch me.
(3:45 pm) Haha, is this suppose to impress me?
(3:50 pm) You're already gone, aren't you?
(3:50 pm) No, you can't be gone. Who leaves their phone attended nowadays. I know you're reading these. Nobody leaves their phones in the 21st century. No one. So at this point you're probably ignoring me.
(3:50 pm) Is this a lost cause? It probably is.
(3:50 pm) Which is fine.
(3:51 pm) I'm talking to myself now, aren't I?
(3:51 pm) Okay.
Another update will soon follow! Thank goodness for summer vacation! Feedback is much appreciated.
Have a good day!

Sun 12 August (10:09 am) Oh, and the squirrels!I can't believe I forgot about the squirrels!
(10:11 am) Are you sleep-texting?
(10:11 am) No.
(10:11 am) Are you hammered?
(10:12 am) It's 10 AM on a Sunday!
(10:12 am) Exactly. It's 10 AM on a SUNDAY
(10:13 am) So?
(10:13 am) What about the squirrels, Emmet?
(10:13 am) How did they get here? Did the squirrels come in a package deal with the trees? There's so many here!
(10:14 am) So you're in Phoenix park again, aren't you?
(10:14 am) Is this where you hang out every Sunday?
(10:14 am) And I really want to know - how on earth do you come up with these questions? How?
(10:15 am) I'm serious!
(10:15 am) I didn't say you weren't.
(10:15 am) Why don't you just Google it? I bet you Google is a morning person...
(10:17 am) I don't think Google is really necessary... what if it just decided to stop one day and then where would we all be? Not googling, let me tell you.
(10:17 am) Oh god.
(10:19 am) Look, why don't you just go back to bed before you give the both of us a headache? Could you maybe possibly do that so I can catch some sleep? Please?
(10:19 am) That doesn't answer my question.
(10:20 am) Emmet... they're SQUIRRELS. We'll live if this question is unanswered.
(10:21 am) How do you know? What if this day, August 12, is the squirrel apocalypse because you failed to answer a question of importance... and then where would we all be, huh?
(10:21 am) ... What are you?
(10:22 am) I'm adorable.
(10:24 am) Let me get back to you on that one.
10:27 am) I need to get coffee or I will personally find a squirrel, go to Phoenix Park and unleash the squirrel to find you and bite your neck.
(10:30 am) So... someone's not a morning person...
(10:31 am) You think?
(10:31 am) =P
(10:32 am) Why am I starting to think that you're just winding me up?
(10:32 am) Google it.
(10:33 am) ...
(10:34 am) Does that mean I win?
(10:35 am) Would that shut you up?
(10:35 am) Cause then yes, yes you win.
(10:36 am) Enjoy your coffee, Rosalind!

Tues 14 August (9:12 am) I hate Tuesdays
(9:12 am) Not Mondays?
(9:13 am) No, Tuesdays.
(9:13 am) Care to elaborate?
(9:18 am) Everyone goes back to work on Mondays, right? Everyone knows Mondays suck because it's suppose to suck. It's a universal thing, you finish the day and then you're done. You know how to deal with it and you have common ground. It's natural to hate Mondays. People like hating on Mondays. It's a group sport, there's nothing wrong with that. And then it's over and you think, "Hey, this day sucks but it's over!" Then Tuesday comes around and the universal feeling is over because it's just "another Tuesday" and it's useless. It's not the beginning of the week and it's not the end of the week. It just is and it sucks.
(9:19 am) Wow.
(9:19 am) That was...
(9:19 am) You read the word elaborate and took it right down to the definition, didn't you?
(9:20 am) Yup.
(9:20 am) I think I liked you better when you were all sunshine and rainbows... this is another story.
(9:21 am) So what if I don't feel like sunshine and rainbows today? What if I have chances of clouds every now and then?
(9:22 am) I see no problem with that.
(9:22 am) What about clouds and heavy outbreaks of rain?
(9:23 am) Heavy patches of rain?
(9:23 am) No, small ones. Like sprinkles.
(9:24 am) Then that's okay, too.
(9:24 am) Good.
(9:25 am) How about a full on hurricane?
(9:25 am) Are you a hurricane, Emmet?
(9:26 am) No, not today.
(9:27 am) We'll cross that bridge once we get there then. Okay?
(9:28 am) Okay.
(9:28 am) Thank you.
(9:29 am) For?
(9:30 am) Letting me elaborate.
(9:30 am) Anytime.

Wed 15 August (2:24 am) Did you know that mother squirrels are sometimes cannibals?
(2:24 am) No, I did not know that!
(2:24 am) Yup, it's true. They can nibble on dead animals if any other source of food is scarce.
(2:25 am) Such wisdom at this late hour, my friend!
(2:25 am) How do you know that?
(2:26 am) I know things.
(2:26) Did you Google squirrels, Rosalind?
(2:26 am) I know things!
(2:27 am) You definitely used Google, I reckon. I donno whether to be touched or appalled at your hypocrisy.
(2:28 am) I do know things, you know.
(2:28 am) Rosalind.
(2:29 am) I am very knowledgeable, for your information.
(2:29 am) Roooooosalind.
(2:29 am) Fine, okay. I was just doing some stupid studying and I got tired of it so I decided to Google stuff...
(2:30 am) So what's your excuse for being up? Wild partying?
(2:30 am) No, I'm doing the same thing as you actually, unless you count using the textbook as a cup holder studying...
(2:31 am) Clever, Emmet. I wish I could think like that, I really do.
(2:32 am) Hey, what's your major? I've never really gotten to ask you that...
(2:34 am) Writing... an aspiring author, actually.
(2:36 am) That's interesting. When you're as famous as Rowling or Collins, you can include in your little biography about that one lad you've been texting that inspired you to write.
(2:36 am) I know of no such person.
(2:36 am) Your words hurt me, miss.
(2:38 am) Okay, we're both clearly tired. Have a good rest of the night studying.
(2:39 am) I'm actually just going to wing it at this point.
(2:39 am) Yeah, me too. Good night!
(2:42 am) If you can't sleep, just think of the squirrels jumping a fence.
(3:00 am) Or I could think about many children throwing up on you... it isn't a pretty sight.
(3:02 am) That's not weird at all...
(3:14 am) It's your life, not mine. It's real, you can't hide from it.
(3:15 am) I think you should sleep.
(3:30 am) They just keep coming! How are you supposed to live with that? (3:32 am) Sleep.
-0-
Wed 15 August (3:20 pm) Sorry about last night. I was up for 19 hours at that point.
(3:23 pm) It's okay, it was adorable.
(3:24 pm) You think everything's adorable. You probably thought that child was adorable.
(3:25 pm) =b
Well, that was a long one. I hope you enjoyed every single little text! Until next time.
Have a great day!

Sun 19 August (11:23 am) How was Phoenix Park?
(2:04 pm) Did you get lost?
(2:19 pm) Or maybe the squirrels got fed up with your intrusion and dragged you to their cave?
(2:19 pm) Because everyone knows squirrels live in caves.

Tues 21 August (1:37 pm) I hope your Tuesday was tolerable this time.

Thurs 23 August (3:01 pm) It wasn't! I'm used to it now though, but thank you!
(3:05 pm) Who is this?
(3:05 pm) I thought we were past this.
(3:09 pm) And I thought you had manners.
(3:10 pm) Are you seriously randomly replying to a text I sent two days ago?
(3:10 pm) I'm sorry!
(3:10 pm) Yes well..
(3:10 pm) Are you mad at me?
(3:11 pm) No?
(3:11 pm) Is that a question?
(3:11 pm) You are mad at me!
(3:12 pm) You could have been dead.
(3:13 pm) But I'm not! I was just having one of those weeks. I was a hurricane.
(3:13 pm) Did you really think I could've been dead?
(3:15 pm) No.
(3:15 pm) Hurt by the squirrel mafia? Maybe.
(3:17 pm) There's no such thing!
(3:18 pm) Since when are you the sane one in this relationship?
(3:18 pm) Relationship?
(3:18 pm) You know what I mean.
(3:19 pm) Can't I just say that I'm sorry and that it won't happen again? If it does, I give you permission to set a squirrel on me.
(3:19 pm) That doesn't explain in, though!
(3:20 pm) You're not making this easy for me, are you?
(3:20 pm) I never said I was easy.
(3:21 pm) But okay, do it again, and I will have unleash the wrath of my squirrel mafia.
(3:21 pm) Just kidding.
(3:22 pm) Thanks.

Sun 26 August (12:09 pm) This is a Phoenix Park text.
(12:09 pm) My favorite.
(12:09 pm) What is your question today?
(12:10 pm) No question. Just an observation. We're enjoying the scenery today. It's the first sunny day of this month!
(12:10 pm) We're?
(12:11 pm) Laurie and I.
(12:11 pm) Okay...
(12:11 pm) Who's Laurie?
(12:12 pm) Hold on, give me a sec.
(12:12 pm) I'll stay here.
(12:19 pm) Sorry, Laurie is beside herself and won't hold still long enough.
(12:20 pm) What in the world are you doing?
(12:29 pm) Hold on! I'm almost done!
(12:30 pm) You're starting to frighten me.
(12:31 pm) We're very nice people.
(12:31 pm) Very nice.
(12:34 pm) Ok, I got it! There!
(12:35 pm) What??
(12:35 pm)
(12:40 pm) You have a dog named Laurie?
(12:40 pm) Wait, you have a dog?!
(12:42 pm) No, not mine, my neighbor's.
(12:42 pm) Ah, so the mystery of the Phoenix Park visits is revealed.
(12:43 pm) I feel like I know you a bit better now.
(12:45 pm) I'm glad I could help.
(12:46 pm) Well, I hope you have a good rest of the day in the sun!
(12:47 pm) Actually, Laurie and I are going to go get some fruit smoothies now.
(12:47 pm) You and Laurie?
(12:47 pm) Correct.
(12:48 pm) What's her order?
(12:50 pm) Strawberry. She said it helps her coat shine more than usual.
(12:50 pm) I think I like this dog.
(12:51 pm) Well, I think I love her.

Tues 28 August (7:00 am)
(7:05 am) Are you trying to tell me something?
(7:10 am) What am I..? Goodness Emmet, Tuesdays really do make you grumpy.
(7:10 am) And for your information, it's a squirrel on top of a dog. I've noticed that you're rather fond of Laurie and that you have a weird infatuation with squirrels. So I sent you that picture!
(7:15 am) Why?
(7:16 am) ... to brighten up your day.
(7:16 am) Clearly it didn't go the way I planned.
(7:20 am) I just woke up.
(7:23 am) Wow, cute. Okay. That's a great addition to my knowledge... That doesn't change anything, Emmet. My first part of the mission has failed.
(7:23 am) Mission?
(7:25 am) Shhh.
-
(12:09 pm) Do I want to know what your wee mission is?
(12:20 pm) Nope, not really. So no school today?
(12:23 pm) How would you know?
(12:25 pm) Had a feeling.
(12:26 pm) Ah, so you admit to stalking me now?
(12:26 pm) I knew it was about time.
(12:27 pm) No.
(12:27 pm) Aye, I got a rehearsal with me group.
(12:27 pm) You're in a band?
(12:27 pm) No, it's not a band. It's a group.
(12:30 pm) Oh, okay.
(12:30 pm) You never cease to stop catching my attention.
Another one finished! Please leave feedback so I know what I'm doing. Thank you!
Have a great day!

Thurs 30 August (8:12 am) So, Rosalind... y'know that small little cafe by that fashion place in front of Phoenix Park? By 9th and 10th avenue?
(8:13 am) Umm, maybe, why? Is that where you're planning on kidnapping me?
(8:15 am) So, yes or no?
(8:15 am) Yes.
(8:18 am) Okay, go there and tell them your name... any time would be okay, but it has to be today.
(8:19 am) Now you're really scaring me...
(8:20 am) Just do it, Rosalind.
-
(5:40 pm) Your intention... whatever it was... was just - I love it.
(5:41 pm) So did you go?
(5:41 pm) Yes, I did! I can't believe you did that!
(5:42 pm) So you're not scared anymore?
(5:42 pm) Who would be scared of free smoothies? Not me.
(5:45 pm) No, really... thank you.
(5:45 pm) Did it brighten your day?
(5:47 pm) Yes, as a matter of fact, it did.
(5:47 pm) Then you're most certainly welcome.
(5:49 pm) Was this a one time thing or do I get free smoothies every Thursday from now on?
(5:49 pm) Don't push it.
-
(10:34 pm) Are you friends with one of the workers or something?
(10:35 pm) Is that what you think about before bed?
(10:35 pm) Well, are you?
(10:38 pm) What if I was?
(10:38 pm) OMG
(10:39 pm) ... "OMG" really Rosalind?
(10:41 pm) You sneaky, sneaky... thing!
(10:42 pm) You're definitely eloquent tonight.
(10:42 pm) I'm going to bed now, but this isn't over.
(10:45 pm) That's what you think.
(10:46 pm) Good night!

Fri 31 August (3:42 pm) So did you talk to your friend yet?
(3:43 pm) What friend?
(3:43 pm) The friend at the smoothie shop.
(3:45 pm) I never said I had a friend at the smoothie shop.
(3:45 pm) But you do!
(3:46 pm) Do you want me to have a friend at the smoothie shop?
(3:47 pm) Are you really trying to tell me that you told some random strangers that a girl named Rosalind was stopping by and that they were to give her whatever she wants?
(3:48 pm) A) They're not random strangers... they're my smoothie people. and B) Anything she wants?
(3:49 pm) A) So is that your regular smoothie place. B) That's what they told me.
(3:50 pm) A) Now answering that would be reckless. B) That seems like a dangerous thing to say to you. I guess they didn't know any better, I should have talked to them.
(3:52 pm) Were you there?
(3:52 pm) ?
(3:52 pm) At the smoothie shop! Do not play dumb with me.
(3:53 pm) No, I wasn't.
(3:53 pm) Yeah, just like you don't have a friend there.
(3:54 pm) You're a stubborn skeptic.
(3:54 pm) And you are absolutely full of it! =b
(3:55 pm) Hey now! I guess someone doesn't want any smoothies next Thursday...
(3:55 pm) Sure! It gives you another chance for your friends to spy on me.
(3:56 pm) I really want to believe you were there.
(3:56 pm) Why?
(3:57 pm) You'd either be the second half of the grumpy old woman behind me that decided that I cut her off in line. Or maybe the old couple arguing over the right amount of sugar. Not to mention the weird kid with a purple mohawk that almost dropped by smoothie.
(3:57 pm) Well then... I could be anyone.
(3:57 pm) But you weren't there.
(3:58 pm) But I wasn't there.

Mon 3 September (11:32 am) This is going to be the most boring day of my life.
(11:32 am) I suggest a Q and A.
(11:40 am) Okay. I have a break from rehearsal right now. Who's doing the Q and who's doing the A?
(11:45 am) We'll take turns. Are you in?
(11:46 am) I'm in.
(11:46 am) Wait, are there going to be any rules?
(11:47 am) Do you need any rules?
(11:49 am) Well, what if I don't want to answer anything?
(11:50 am) Then use squirrel as your safe word.
(11:50 am) I feel like I'm not taken seriously in this relationship.
(11:52 am) And nothing but questions and answers all day?
(11:52 am) Okay?
(11:54 am) You're being oddly determined... but okay.
(11:54 am) I'll go first.
(11:55 am) Where do you go to school?
(11:55 am) Squirrel.
(11:59 am) EMMET
(12:00 pm) What? ... Fine, okay. I'll be nice and you can ask another question.
(12:00 pm) Fine.
(12:01 pm) What's your favorite color? (That's what you get for being such a spoilsport this early in the game)
(12:03 pm) Mature.
(12:03 pm) Blue.
(12:05 pm) It's your turn.
(12:08 pm) I know, I'm trying to find out the perfect first question.
(12:09 pm) Don't hurt yourself, now.
(12:15 pm) Can you change a tire?
(12:18 pm) That's your perfect first question, Emmet?
(12:18 pm) I'm pretty sure answering with another question is NOT allowed.
(12:19 pm) That wasn't a rule.
(12:20 pm) Well, it's a rule now.
(12:21 pm) And you put too much pressure on me so I went with a random question instead.
(12:21 pm) What if you thought this was the perfect question?
(12:22 pm) JUST ANSWER IT... please.
(12:25 pm) This is going so well.
(12:25 pm) And yes, I totally can.
(12:25 pm) Do you live by yourself or with a roommate?
(12:30 pm) One roommate, but he's rarely in. Okay, are you from Ireland?
(12:34 pm) Nope, from France, born and raised here though. What's your smoothie order?
(12:34 pm) SQUIRREL.
(12:35 pm) Really, Emmet. REALLY? You can't say squirrel now!
(12:36 pm) I have a plan in my head.
(12:38 pm) I don't want to know.
Another one finished! I think I'm able to fit another one in! Thank you for reading!
Have a fantastic night!
