Well, that was kind of tough. I talked to Chuck today. He always IMs me. But we have very little in common, now that he's married and starting to live life as an adult. I'm still half kid. He also doesn't talk much. I can't figure him out, and I can't get myself to trust him as a result. Today's conversation did not help.

Me: I'm working on my classes and listening to music
Me: found some really good piano music on MySpace
Chuck: cool u have myspace
Me: well yes...
Chuck: www.myspace.com/************
Chuck: is me
Me: lol... you need to change your status
Me: let me see, if I remember right you have a xanga or livejournal or something too
Chuck: xanga, livejournal, etc
Chuck: facebook, myspace
Me: wow... all for networking purposes, I suppose
Chuck: pretty much
Chuck: did u request to add me on myspace
Me: no, I didn't
Me: just for my own sake
Chuck: or did u just look at my page
Chuck: oh sorry
Chuck: ok
Chuck: i understand
Me: glad you do...thanks
Chuck: feel free to look at mine anytime
Me: sure

Awkward, but it would've been okay. Except he continued a moment later...

Chuck: think about it, it was like 6 months to a year before i ever even saw a pic of u
Chuck: i think we have developed a somewhat mutual friendship over the last couple years on here
Chuck: lol
Chuck: dont u think
Me: look, I'll just tell you. I don't trust you.
Me: I'm sorry
Chuck: over all
Me: yeah
Chuck: that is ok
Chuck: and i completely understand since u dont know me
Chuck: except through the computer
Me: right

"Right" was not an entirely truthful answer. I don't trust him because, first of all, he doesn't talk very much, and second of all, the way he talks to me when he does talk. The way he tries to get information out of me. That he tries to get information out of me at all.

Anyway... Chuck's probably harmless. I just can't find evidence (I wouldn't say proof) of it yet. I did a little research on his new wife, by way of links he's given me. It appears she does exist, LOL. But the last date on the only blog I could find of hers was May 23, 2005. She doesn't mention Chuck anywhere that I could find.

We'll just see how things pan out.

On another note, I got to talk to Angela on the phone for the first time today! She's real. :D She has a slight Southern accent, which I think is great. I love accents. She said I don't have an accent. I could easily adopt a Southern one, though. I'm not a big city girl.

Noticing Angela's "accent" gave me another reason to look forward the visit: it reminded me that life is lived at a slower pace in the Midwest and Southern United States. I am going to enjoy that thoroughly. The sad thing is I'll be moving to a bigger city soon... I'm not so sure I want to go now.

Maybe, instead of moving to the Oregon Coast when I'm on my own, I'll move to the Midwest.

Another thing I'll just have to wait and see about. :)
