Saturday: November/1/08 - AIM: Starbuck/Vinnie Starbuck: What happened? Vinnie: with what? Starbuck: Frankie and Fox. People are gossiping about it, saying you got in a fight. Vinnie: he was being a dick and i pushed him, the end Vinnie: and happy birthday, by the way Starbuck: Thanks. Are you okay? Vinnie: yeah, i'm fine Starbuck: Frankie too? Vinnie: i guess Starbuck: You guess? Vinnie: she said she was just talking to him so yeah, i guess Starbuck: I don't know why she's talking to him. She needs to cut him out of her life. Vinnie: i'm done giving her advice Starbuck: Probably a good plan. Let her figure it out. Vinnie: that's exactly what i'm gonna do Starbuck: And leave Fox alone. Vinnie: i already told tiger to keep fox away from me Vinnie: same goes for you Starbuck: I'll do my best. I'm avoiding him as well. If he gets hurt again, I'll have to treat him, but I'm not discussing anything with him. Vinnie: i meant keeping him away from me Starbuck: I know, but I can't follow Fox around to make sure he steers clear of you. Vinnie: yeah, i know Starbuck: Just don't talk to him, and even if he says something shitty, walk away. Vinnie: did a pretty good job of not talking to him til last night Starbuck: So why'd you guys nearly have it out? Vinnie: i thought he did something to make frankie upset so i got pissed Starbuck: Oh. She was upset? Vinnie: she said she wasn't, but she looked it Starbuck: I wish she wasn't so upset all the time. It's hard seeing her like this. She used to be such a happy, positive person. Vinnie: yeah, there's not really much we can do though Starbuck: I guess not. I get why she ended things with Nate, but she was happy with him, and he was good to her. Vinnie: she dwells on that too so i just try not to think about it Starbuck: It's a shame she didn't start dating when she was younger. I think her lack of experience is to blame. Vinnie: who knows, it could be lots of things Starbuck: She's taking care of Kamea tonight, so that should help. Seems to cheer her up. Vinnie: yeah, it does.. you can't really stay sad around the little munchkin Starbuck: She's awesome like that. Being around her and Kim erases all the shit. Vinnie: yeah, i bet Starbuck: So, before turning into an overprotective brother, did you have fun at the party? Vinnie: yeah, i did Vinnie: got a hell of a laugh outta seeing your get up too, haha Starbuck: Thanks. Kim's idea. Vinnie: she's mean because you were the ugliest woman i've ever seen Starbuck: But did you see HER costume that I picked? Vinnie: yes Vinnie: serious props for that, man Starbuck: I know. High five! Vinnie: how she didn't at least get in the top three, i don't know Starbuck: Well, we did skip out somewhat early. I dragged her ass back to the apartment as soon as I could. Vinnie: haha, lucky bastard Starbuck: Yes, yes I am. Vinnie: lol Vinnie: admitting is the first step Starbuck: Best birthday sex EVER! Vinnie: i thought today was your birthday Starbuck: It started at midnight. Vinnie: right, heh Starbuck: Didn't get much sleep. Vinnie: i hate you Starbuck: I know. You found a new woman to bone yet? Vinnie: unfortunately not Starbuck: Any prospects? Vinnie: not really Starbuck: What about Pearl? Frankie signed off on it, have you made a move? Vinnie: i was gonna try last night, but i couldn't stop gawking at her costume Starbuck: She looked hot. Vinnie: god, she totally did Starbuck: So get on it! Vinnie: i'm trying! Starbuck: Try harder. You're gonna die a born again virgin. Vinnie: ha ha, very funny Starbuck: I have my moments. Kim says my jokes are terrible, but she still laughs. Vinnie: probably just feels bad for your lame attempts Starbuck: And she loves me. Vinnie: yeah, yeah, keep gloating Starbuck: I think I will. Vinnie: you're an ass Starbuck: Yep! Vinnie: lol, you have issues Starbuck: And a crazy hot girlfriend who gave me the best birthday and anniversary present EVER! Vinnie: what'd she get ya? other than sex, i mean Starbuck: Oh, you know, stuff. Vinnie: wow, specific Starbuck: It's a secret. Vinnie: why's it a secret? Starbuck: Because it is? Vinnie: that's a shitty reason Starbuck: Sorry, like I said, it's a secret. Maybe I'll tell ya about it eventually. Vinnie: dude, you can't talk to me about a secret and then not tell me Vinnie: that's mean! Starbuck: Oh, right, because your'e so forthcoming. Vinnie: harsh, dude Starbuck: Frankie bitched to me the other day about you keeping secrets again, or thinking you might be. I suck at lying dude, and I think she could tell. Vinnie: yeah, tiger let shit slip too Starbuck: That's what Frankie said. Vinnie: whatever, it doesn't matter Starbuck: She won't be mad if she finds out about Rocky. There'd be no harm in telling her. Vinnie: she'll be all up in the news asking me about it, so yeah, there'd be harm Starbuck: Not when it's in the past. She WILL be pissed if she finds out from someone else. You should tell her before she does. Vinnie: it's none of her damn business who i sleep with Starbuck: Says the guy who was furious with her for fucking Grey. Vinnie: because she fucking TOLD me about it! Vinnie: i don't WANT to hear about who she sleeps with! Starbuck: Actually, she didn't. Starbuck: Sal told ya. Vinnie: yeah, well, technicality Vinnie: and grey's a douche so whatever Starbuck: Up to you, dude, but you know Frankie will be hurt if she finds out and you never told her. Vinnie: i really hate it when you tell me shit like this Starbuck: When I make sense? Vinnie: i don't need to tell her everything Starbuck: She seems to think you do. Vinnie: it's stupid Starbuck: So tell her that. Tell her the deal you guys made is off, and that you need to keep some shit from her. Vinnie: you really think that's gonna go over well? Starbuck: No. Vinnie: exactly Starbuck: But it might be less painful than the fight that will come from her finding out you've been keeping secrets when you said you wouldn't. Vinnie: you're really starting to annoy me with this stuff Starbuck: Also, she might be less inclined to tell you about the shit you don't wanna know. Maybe she'd stop telling me all her business too. Vinnie: why don't you tell her to stop telling you all her business? Starbuck: Because sometimes it's medically related, and I don't want to hurt her feelings either. Vinnie: ugh Starbuck: You know better than anyone that she needs to talk through her problems, and she gets her feelings hurt easily if you don't respond the right way. Vinnie: i know, but it's SO annoying Starbuck: Everyone has annoying traits. We cope with it when we love someone. Vinnie: yeah, i know Starbuck: Take deep breaths, go for a run or something, and try to remain calm about it all. Vinnie: yeah, running sounds better Starbuck: Whatever gets it out of your system and keeps you from blowing up at someone. Vinnie: it helps Starbuck: Get to it then. I gotta head over to the infirmary. Vinnie: on your birthday? why? Starbuck: Wes is going through some stuff. Vinnie: that sucks Starbuck: I won't be there all night. Vinnie: hope not Starbuck: Unless there's an emergency. Anyway, gotta go. Vinnie: alright, later
