The sun has made a thousand nights for you to hold

Awesome, awesome. I love this. Love it. :D
I was looking through flyers and stuff that came in the newspaper today. Nothing new, all the Halloween stuff coming out and then... THEN I stumble across the Wal-Mart flyer. Seems normal. Here comes the toy section. The fucking toy section. Jumping off the page in it's scary existance is this... Dentist "Big Mouth" Ball Pit. It's an inflatable ball pit for kids ages 2 - 5, but it's the in the shape of a mouth. A mouth. How wrong is that? It's the freakest thing I've ever seen. And it has large inflatable plyers you can use to pull out the teeth. *sigh* This is what they can come up with now? ...NOT GOOD. I'll put the actual ad for it in here whenever the scanner is available.
Also! Had a little talk with Brian today after school (and I'll do this in advance; Brian, I'm sorry if somehow Tiffany ends up reading this, but I think there's a good chance she won't because it doesn't seem like she's read my LJ at all yet). OK. So Brian has this crush on Tiff. Crush? Maybe something a little more then that. He really likes her. But, as he explained to me, he doesn't want to say anything because he's friends with her now, and he doesn't want to ruin that. So he asks me what he should do, because I'm one of Tiff's best friends, but God knows I know nothing about relationships, so I just tell him that he should maybe get to know her better, find out things she likes, talk to her about stuff they have in common, etc. But also to not take any advice I give him to heart, because it might not help him. Bad advice? Good advice? I don't know. I really don't, but it kinda seems like a good idea... friends first, slow and steady and all that stuff? After all that's over, we start talking about just relationships in general. Well, not general exactly... my relationships. Of which I have none. He asks if I have a crush or whatever on any guys... well, it kinda goes like this: (my memory is not all that so bear with me)
Brian: So, do you like anyone?
Me: What do you mean like? Friend like, or relationship like?
Brian: Relationship like.
Me: No, not really.
Brian: Really, why? You don't like anyone?
Me: I don't have anyone that I like like, you know? Just friends.
Brian: What about Mike?
Me: Russel?
Brian: No, the one we sit with at lunch.
Me: Oh, Bob-Mike, no just friends. And I don't think I'd even consider still being even good friends with Mike Russel anymore.
Brian: What about his brother? (referring to Bob-Mike's brother)
Me: No, same, just friends... I don't even really know him that well anyway.
Brian: Hmm... what about me? (laughs)
Me: What? You? Uhh... just friends! Good friends, ya know? Nothing more than that. EVER. Besides, you like Tiff. I wouldn't get a crush on someone I knew liked my best friend.
Brain: Right... stay away from Tiff! She's mine!
Me: What the hell? I wouldn't go with Tiff! She's a bit too hyper for me anyway, even if I did walk on that side of the fence, which I don't.
Brian: Ya, I know.
I think there was some other stuff said too, but I can't remember. So strange. But way before that conversation started, Brian asked me what color I thought he and Tiff were. For Tiff, I said pink, because she's hyper and girly. Then for him I said orange, becuase he's really energetic and vibrant. He asked if I thought those colors were a good mix, to which I answered "I don't think so. I mean, you can mix them and it will look good, but sometimes it turns out looking kinda messed up." Stupid me, taking that time to be metaphorical in my speaking, I meant it in the way that if he tries something he might have a chance of getting into a "more than friends" relationship with her, but he might not, and there might be that possibility of a lost friendship from it. But I don't think he took it in that way, so I may have gotten his hopes down.
...I hate dealing with relationships. -___-
