#whether our relationship goes anywhere I was able to give him a genuine compliment without freaking out and that’s a big step for me!

Had a long walk; wore a borrowed hat and an old sweater I finally styled right. There were perfectly crispy breadsticks at dinner. Drank a Cherry Coke and had gremlin time with my friends. Built up enough confidence that when I saw the guy I like all dressed up to go swing dancing, I had enough confidence and bravado to yell “WHY DO YOU LOOK SO FABULOUS” out the car window at him on impulse.

Flustered the boy. Whoops. Made him smile. A win.
