I was typing out my sms's and found one from "Joe" that had already been read, but I didn't receive it. I actually had no idea it was there until a moment ago. I'm glad I didn't know about it becasue I was hopelessly drunk last night and probably would have sent back something really stupid. I know it's stupid but I'm so relieved to hear from him. Even though he's an asshole, I feel really alone and it's quite comforting that someone out there (especially him) is thinking about me. I think it also has a lot to do with the ball being in my court; he is in a sense waiting for me to reply to him, as opposed to the rather regular routine of me awaiting his response.
