I love when silly things happen to those I admire. It brings them back to the level of humanity - that is, humility makes you a bit more human when your pedestal grows too tall. This is the case for my dear friend who I love unconditionally - so much so that I'm sharing her stories with the entire internet.
There are two stories just silly enough that I couldn't keep to myself, 'Not Single,' and 'Rented Fabric.'
Not Single.
K & D began dating over a year ago and, while neither are really "Facebook" people, one day K realized that D had a 'single' relationship status from way before they became a couple. K, herself, had in the past, opted not to have a relationship status. In a place as public as that, who needs their relationships under scrutiny when some people feel their comments matter more when a keyboard is involved? Still, the 'single' kind of irked her, so she asked D to take it down. He said he would, and for a month she didn't think anything of it. When she saw it again, she asked him why he hadn't changed it.
'It's just Facebook, who cares?" He retorted.
K raised an eyebrow and thought to herself, we'll see about that.
She changed her relationship status to single.
For two days, everyone they knew buzzed about her newly single status.
Naturally, the rumor of their split had begun, and they both received an avalanche of texts and calls from their friends regarding K's newly proclaimed falsity of single-hood, which I'm sure felt more like a punishment to herself than a point made to D. The point was well taken, however, and yesterday, both K & D made their year's long relationship official on Facebook, with many comments and 'LOL's.
Rented Fabric
She worked an entire 8 hours before she realized the jeans she wore that day had a giant hole exposing a generous portion of her butt. This happened the day of the text/call avalanche, perhaps adding to the mystery of her newly single status.
