Poor Rob or That was a Bust and a Half
Well... last night was definitely one of those awkward situations that you hope not to have to relive again.. at least for poor Rob. The story goes like this. We were all going to go see "Starsky and Hutch" at Grant Park, but by the time Jay and I got there, it was sold out (which was weird because we were there over an hour ahead of time). We were supposed to get a ticket for Rob, who was not done work till 10pm. Unable to do so, we went to visit him at work and inform him of the problem. While there, he told us that he had met some "smoking hot" girls who came in to the service station and asked to use the bathroom. Letting them do so, he started chatting them up and was told of their plans to go bowling later. He gave them a ride to the alley and said that they invited him to come along after work. He seemed really excited so Jay and I went along with him and a co-worker to meet them. First of all, they were like MAYBE 16 (which isn't a problem for Rob) and second of all, it was painfully obvious that from the get go they did not want Rob there. He tried talking to them for a bit but they kept brushing him off. We figured that we would go upstairs and see if there were any free lanes, but there weren't. Rob then figured that he should go talk to them and Jay provided backup. From what I was told, one of them kept saying "goodbye" "this is a private function" over and over again to Rob trying to get him to leave and another one said "I can't believe you invited him." It was basically poor Rob standing there being told he wasn't wanted and to leave. That's gotta hoit... My opinion on the whole thing was that Rob kinda set himself up for that kind of this but on the other hand they DID invite him to show up. If they didn't want him there why the hell ask him then? I assume it was because they figured that he wouldn't show up. Still, it was super rude of them to do that... but if Rob hadn't of gotten worked up, the embarrassment wouldn't of happened. Oh well...
After that fiasco, Rob and his co-worker went home so Jay and I adjourned to Tyler and Kerrie's to sit around and chat, while casually watching TV. The usual occurrence of my car getting blocked in happened again. They have a parking spot that they don't use, so whenever I am there I park in it. A few times now, someone has parked behind me, blocking me in. Because the spot is reserved, it's able to be a tow zone. Luckily the owner has been next door to move the car for me, but still... it's a hassle to have to wait around for the joker to move... at least he was polite about it (I guess he has to be since we could get his car towed..) All in all, it was an odd mishmash of an evening.
