Hello you've reached Eleanor Lamb's voicemail. I'd explain what's next but I can't imagine you don't know what to do at the beep.

[windeity]

sort of. it's a long story.
i'm not going to go into that part of it but i mean...like yeah, that stuff is fun obviously but it was never my favorite part about dating.
vic and i had different priorities sometimes.

aren't those just two different words for the same thing eleanor?

[notyourutopian]

Nah.
A sucker is someone getting tricked.
A softie is someone who just likes to do the right thing even if it's maybe not the best for them.

[windeity]

oh.
ok, well, when you put it that way then yes i guess it is the latter. i wasn't tricked into anything in this case.
so thanks for the clarification, i think.

[notyourutopian]

You are welcome. :D

Unless you wanted to be a sucker?

[windeity]

i am pretty sure that's not what i want so i will stick with being a softie.

[notyourutopian]

Good plan.
I think Dave'd definitely take advantage if you were a sucker!

[That is an awful joke and not what she meant at all and whoops.]

[windeity]

hahaha.
i doubt it. dave's probably the least likely to take advantage of anything.

[Joke. Straight over John's head.]

[notyourutopian]

I think he'd do it if it was harmless and cute.
And involved rapping.

[windeity]

that sounds about right.
but at least with dave i know exactly what to expect.

[notyourutopian]

Is that good?
I mean
Familiarity is good but not too good right?

[windeity]

familiarity at least helps with "maybe i won't totally fuck this up" so i would call it good, yes.
there are pros and cons to it? but for the most part i think it's good.

[notyourutopian]

I suppose I can see that.
It creates a new set of problems but ones you can probably deal with.

[windeity]

maybe.
i don't want to think of him as a problem, or think of us as a problem.
it will be fine.
i trust him.

[notyourutopian]

Oh I didn't mean you guys were problems just
Oh never mind
ignore me

I don't know how to do any of this do not listen to me at all

[windeity]

no it's ok! i know you didn't i just.
i am going to be freaking out about this for a while because i want this to work.
so i guess even just...talking helps.
and you are way more rational than i am so that kind of helps, too.

[notyourutopian]

Hah.
I don't feel that way but if you say so, sure.

You can talk to me about stuff whenever though, it's cool.
As long as I can do the same.

[windeity]

thanks.
and yeah, duh! we're friends, aren't we? it would be really shitty not to do the same for you.
so...yeah. anything you need, you can talk to me about stuff whenever.

[notyourutopian]

I can't imagine our lives would involve a lot of need to speak.
We have such ordinary, stress free existences, after all.

[windeity]

sunshine and rainbows, el. just remember that.
i should go though. i actually have some things to catch up on today.
but i'll see you soon?

[notyourutopian]

Yeah.
We'll get lunch one day.
Later John

Oh
And congratulations again.
