Last night, went to a show.
My sister and Reese are both in As You Like It. It's particularly interesting, because Reese's character is completely in love with my sister's. Great fun, although listening to Shakespeare is almost as rough on the brain as listening to German. You know the words, but you have to pay a lot of attention to be able to put them in sensible order and catch the innuendos, of which there are many.
Got to hang out with Reese afterwards = yay! I haven't seen my friend in months - we've talked, but haven't been together since about when classes ended. I haven't yet discussed with him my new take on dating, but I'm not sure I need to. If it'll come up, it'll come up.
Just being goofy, talking about cool stuff, talking about rough stuff, talking about random stuff. Girls he's fighting with, girls he's interested in. Some serious comments about what we're both looking for, swiftly turning to laughter and silliness again. Camp came up quite a bit, he's offered to come visit me some evening (which would be awesome). I recognize that Reese behaves himself a little more around me, which I appreciate. On one hand, I kind of wonder if that qualifies as not being true to himself, but I'd say it is the real him, just not as...I don't know, rough? as he usually is.
I've missed him so much. I'm delighted now. I got to talk to Reese!
