Lost cause

So...good news and bad news to tell. The bad news is that things between Jess and Sarah have not improved and will probably never work. Damn, I really wanted the three of us to be close, kind of like "the trio," which sounds a little lame when I think about it. I tried once more, unsuccessfully, to have a little get-together with the three of us. Let's just say it didn't work out, and I honestly have no idea why these two girls seem to dislike each other so damn much. When we went out Saturday night, it felt as if there was a real reason for the tension between them, almost as if they already knew each other, but that can't be, right? Wouldn't they have mentioned that? Anyway. Lost cause.

The good news comes with bad news. During the second disaster Saturday night, Sarah suggested that I meet her brother (didn't know she had one), which seemed to completely piss Jess off. Normally I'm definitely not a fan of blind dates, but I was so annoyed with both of them that I ended up agreeing. Apparently Sarah doesn't like wasting time because she set something up for the next day, Sunday. This get-together consisted of me, Sarah, her brother and his friend. The entire time Sarah basically tried to push her her brother, Connor, on me (not literally), but I wasn't interested because I didn't feel a click. However (and remember that there always has to be a however in my life; it's just the way it works), while Connor was talking to me (don't ask me what about), I couldn't stop looking at his friend, John (what's with all the Johns all of a sudden-John #1 is from work, and off-limits). The reason has nothing to do with his looks, although they're definitely not bad, but something about him intrigued me (that also sounds lame). John, however, didn't seem to share my interest because he kind of ignored me.

To sum it all up? No problem. Jess and Sarah hate each other, Sarah wants me and Connor to be interested in each other, Connor is interested and I'm not, and John #2 ignores and avoids me like the plague. Any questions?
