Hiking Buddy

I wanted to go hiking. And I didn't want to go alone. I invited Bill, but he made excuses which amounted to he just didn't want to go. Perhaps in a subconscious effort to remind him that other boys find me desirable, or maybe just because I'm a glutton for punishment, I invited Mr. Bland. He came along and we had a good enough time. I'll probably ask him to come hiking with me again.

Maybe just to remind Bill that boys like me. But, I hope mostly because I need a hiking buddy.
