She was, however, being unusually affectionnate and flirty towards ME. This is strange, because I didn't think she liked me much before tonight. Well, being drunk and all she told me how much she liked me, and that she didn't want me to be pissed off at her or anything. Well, I wasn't. I have no problem with people being extra nice to me. At Dick's I paid for her milkshake, since she had spent the last of her money on gas for the truck that was hauling us around. For this, she gave me a hug and smooch. Odd, because before then she had never so much as gotten within handshake range. Le'a was acting very oddly and doing this intense gaze/stare behavior that is typical of her older sister (the beautiful genius Moana, who just got into MIT) (look, 'genius' doesn't mean what you think it means.) I had figured that the staring was about her continuing jealousy of Julie + Kris.

Nope! Later on I found out that she had seen Julie kissing me. And it apparently made her intensely jealous. "What the fuck," registered the stim-response prediction circuitry in my head. Le'a has GOT Kris. She's got me as a friend (which is as much as she wants). But she feels these posessive impulses about me, for some reason. You'd think that if someone else liked me enough to get all touchy, she'd be okay with it. Noooope. Well. Maybe you wouldn't think that, what the hell do I know about the human mind? She said her train of thought went something like, "Hey! How come she gets to kiss him? I don't!" And well, maybe she doesn't. Huh! Perhaps she has mentally categorized Julie as someone to automatically be defensive against, and seeing that triggered a reaction. Hmmm. Maybe she just owns the whole band. It's true! If anyone else tries to get near us they get a face full of her fury. Which serves the interesting purpose of having her protect us against those who would weasel their way into our good graces. To have the band's trust, you need Le'as trust. (Unless you're me, ha ha ha I won)

Well, at least he told Julie that Le'a was trying to be nice. I don't know what to think about Julie. She's a nice person, she has ideals and she backs them up, she's decent looking. She's a good friend. However, at this point in time I couldn't even figure out why I felt bad about Lea moving out, so how the hell could I know how I felt about a person? "Not," that's how.
