Drank a cup o' reality at 1:10 a.m. on Saturday, Aug. 07, 2004
I'm probably going to come back here tomorrow and re-write this entry but I want to get some of it down now while I'm thinking about it.
... just when I thought this part of the soap opera was over...
Tonight S*urvivor played the county fair here. I went with several of my friends and ran into several others that I know. I was having a wonderful time because you know, I love the county fair. Seriously, the concert only cost $6 and I listened to it twice!! (7 PM and 9 PM shows!)
At some point while in the Beer Garden, and 2 beers into my night, I decided it was time for cheese curds (food of the gods). Off I went. On my way I passed The Farmer and Ugly Amy. Slightly annoying but to be expected. It has been a year since I last saw him. Actually longer... I sat daown with friends and joked about how he looked the same and that Ugly was still ugly. Isn't it a bummer that the guys don't suddenly turn hideous after the break-up?
Throughout the evening, I saw them. I made no overtures to talk because I'm not a fool and I have nothing to say. At several points they were talking to friends of mine that I wanted to talk to, but I waited until they were gone. While I was still sitting with Mary and Shauna, Ugly was walking and stopped in her tracks to literally point me out to The Farmer. I raised my glass of beer and smiled going back to my conversation.
I did get to talk to common friends and we had some laughs. I mentioned to one that I was trying to avoid Ugly, it was proving hard.
In the end, my friend TJ appeared (later it seemed like a gift from God) and we were joking around. I caught Mr. Math's best buddy Dave and he and I were joking back and forth. I did not realize that Ugly was standing next to me. So, I hollered to Dave, "Hey, what's this with you talking shit to Mary about me?!?!?" (they had been discussing Mr. Math and me.) At which point Ugly walks up into my face with her beer bottle and starts yelling at me.
Ugly tried to pick a fight in the middle of the Beer Garden!!
She went on and on. I kept trying to talk her down, to tell her that I did not write anything on the bathroom doors in the local bar. At 3 points I looked at The Farmer as though to beg him for help with his psycho girlfriend. At each of those points he egged her on more. I was pretty sure that she was going to hit me with that bottle too. It was Crazy Ass Shit!!
Thank God for TJ who just stood there with his arm around me. Finally, he led me off as she kept ranting. Mary stepped in and told Ugly to knock it off. Shauna told me in the car coming home that I was very calm and seemed to have my whits about me.
It has been so long that I figured that this was done and over. Ugly won, and I wouldn't want him anyhow. I have respected his wishes and there has been no contact. I'm listed in the phonebook if she really wanted to talk to me. I can't think that I have done anything to deserve this anger, especially not on his part.
What really sucks is the knowledge that this would not have happened if Mr. Math was here. I miss him.
