Today, after I got home from school, my mom and I went shopping, mainly because she needed an outfit to wear to my NHS ceremony this weekend. Anyways, on the way home we stopped to get gas in town. There were two or three big trucks there and a group of guys who must have been mud bogging. So, as we pull in, these two guys are staring at me. I thought "God, I know I'm ugly, but is staring really necessary?!" I didn't want to stare back at them and was trying to avoid eye contact, so I didn't get a good look at them. My mom pulls up to the pump, gets out, and I just sit in the car and look at my new CD. My mom then opens the door to get money, and asks if I saw those two guys come up to her. Of course, I said no. I guess they came up to her and said "Is that your daughter?" "Yes," my mom replied. "Can I have her number?" the guys asked. "No!" my mom told them (lol).

Wow. Needless to say, it made me feel good. Especially since I was feeling crappy today anyways. My mom said the guy looked about 20 years old, but I doubt that. People my age don't even think I look my age or are interested in me, so why would a 20 year-old be? I was kind of pissed that my mom didn't even ask me, but I would have turned them down anyways. They weren't my kind of guys. My mom said the one had a cowboy hat on. I'm not at all attracted to hicks/cowboys who do mud bogging and all that related s**t. You know, why can't someone I would actually like, like me? The date offers I get are few and far between, and then they're by people I don't like. I don't really get how they seen me well enough to want to ask for my number. I was just sitting in the passenger seat, pulling into the gas station. Weird. Maybe they really didn't get a very good look at me, and if they would have seen me closer, they would have ran the other way. Hell, I can't even get a date for prom, but yet two random guys ask for my number at a gas station. It's so disheartening. Why don't any of the people at my school, or any random person I would actually like, like me? It's really not fair.

I could go on about the unfairness of life all day, but I just wanted to share this because it actually did make me feel good for once.
