Dear Diary,

     Yes. Yes. Yes. I still can't believe I went on that dat— outing yesterday. Can I believe it? Can you? Was it real? Over the course of the day, my overwhelming ecstasy sputtered and sparked and fried my brain. Then, like a wildfire, it destroyed me completely, and now all that's left of me is a lingering feeling of disbelief and oh my spud, did that really happen?

I'm happy today. He smiled at me at work today. Told me he had fun. Said we should hang out more. Hang out. I admitted yesterday that I was smitten with him. Hang out. Does he not like me the same way? It's okay. I never expected him to. We can be friends, and I'll still be happy. We had coffee together after work, with the radishes we work with.

     I'm happy.

      Though I do wish that Fry and Potter wouldn't tease me so much...
