So. Tonight, I attended the birthday party of one of my oldest friends, someone I've known since I was 11 and someone who I stayed out way too late for so I could be his designated driver when his designated driver took off, because that's the kind of friend I am. Also attending the party was someone who confessed to me that he dated one of my ex-girlfriends in college after I broke up with her. The funny thing is that while I hate living in the past and my singing habits aren't just in the car and in the shower and old memories of my college a cappella group because I've started my own group out here in Los Angeles, he said something tonight that really made me kind of wish for the glory days of my old group. When I asked him if the ex said anything about me while they were dating, he replied, "Yeah, she pointed you out and said you were an asshole. [Ed. note: I have a bad habit of ending relationships poorly. It's not intentional, I think I just let them go on too long so it's easier to walk away.] But you were in VoiceMale [my college group], so you were... well, untouchable." I guess it's not so unfathomable at a school where there hadn't been a football team in almost 40 years, but it's still kind of odd to think that I was looked up to -- especially because I wasn't a football hero, but because I sang. I mean, it's not like you see major motion pictures made about collegiate singing groups.
