snippet from 'Nessa
'Nessa
Nessa wants us to get together soon so that we can 'rock out'. She wants to spread her crazy all over my apartment. My baser instincts suggest 'why not?', but I know better than that. I know that once she's here, she'll be coming back here all the time. And the crazy will get crazier.
Nessa says she's PMS-ing and proves it by fighting with her ex-boyfriend by the bar's jukebox. Some shit-ass Iron Maiden song drowns out their argument, and for the first time in my life I thank the good lord for Iron Maiden. All I want to do is finish the relatively-full beer that she bought for me moments before the fighting began. I could just leave it there unfinished, but that just ain't gonna happen. Guess I could guzzle the damn thing, too, but I don't need that much shit beer in me all at once. I simply pick up the pace, and turn my back towards the jukebox.
Nessa's got the scoop - the word on the street, the latest gossip and rumors that just gotta be true. I hear things about myself, about my ex, about several other close friends - and it's all bullshit, of course. Though it's likely not worth the effort, I do my best to set the record straight on the facts of the matter concerning my ex and other close friends. I couldn't give a shit about any rumors concerning me; they can believe whatever they want to believe. Ain't like I value the opinions of the people in this place anyway: I only came here 'cause the bar I usually frequent was completely and surprisingly packed, and I was in no mood for a crowded bar. Once this beer's done, they won't be seeing me here again for a very long time.
Nessa's done with the fighting and the rumormongering. She wants to know what I'm up to later and when we're gonna rock out. I finish my beer, tell her I'll see her around - that I'll keep her posted on the rocking out that will never actually happen - and make my way out of there. I'm home much earlier than I anticipated and have no one to 'rock out' with; on this night, though, that's probably the best possible outcome.
