HURRICANE
Umm, sorry?
Oh, I guess I've got a wrong number there.  Unless you want my $10 that i was trying to donate to the hurricane relief thing the red cross is doing.
Haha, no, sir, you've got the right number, thank you for your support
no, I can't keep that up
yeah, wrong number
Well, at least you're honest.  Sort of.
I'd have totally just lost ten bucks.
Haha, couldn't resist.  So, you're concerned about the frankenstorm too?
Well, yeah.  I live really close to an evacuation area, so...
Oh wow.  I'm safe, thankfully.  Well, safe in that I don't have to evacuate.  Yet.
Lucky.  I mean, it's not like I can see the ocean from where I live or anything, but it's still nerve-wrecking. 
It's probably all hype anyway.
Blue skies in the morning : )
I can imagine
Storms can be interesting, though
I probably sound like a maniac for saying that
For all I know, you are a maniac.
You're a maniac, aren't you?
It all depends on how you define the word
you could have stopped texting me
if you were really worried
You have a point.
How do you know I'm not a maniac?
I'm probably a maniac.
Maybe we're both maniacs
We should start a club.  Maniacs Anonymous.
I call president/CEO
Only if I get to be style consultant
What exactly are you going to style, via text message?
... fine
I see how it is
I mean, do you want me to change my font?
Wait, wait.  How what is?
I don't know
I was just trying to be funny
Funny doesn't really come across well via text
Sure it does.  Why did the chicken cross the playground?
I don't... know?
... to get to the other slide!
Haha, see?  That's funny.
Point taken
Aww, don't be so down on yourself.
If it makes you feel any better, I still haven't figured out how to donate my $10 to the Red Cross.
Have you tried texting the right number?
Well, no.  This was more entertaining.
Well, I'm glad I've entertained you
I think
I still think we're both maniacs
Have you ever practiced your maniacal laugh?
No... never had a reason to
What kind of life do you lead?  Never having practiced a maniacal laugh...  I actually just shook my head.
Maybe I'm only a part time maniac and spend too much time on my other stuff?
Ah I see.
And, what other stuff might that be?
Somehow I don't feel comfortable telling another maniac about my personal life
Why are we still texting?  This is like something out of a poorly written fanfiction or something
oh god I just admitted I read fanfiction
Oh!  See?  I wasn't really even trying to find out things, and I found out a thing!  I think we're still texting cause this is fun. 
And fanfiction?  Really?
Fun.  Right.  Sure.
and yes, fanfiction.  Someone has to make sure Bella actually has a personality and does stuff that doesn't give women a bad rep
oh god I just admitted I read Twilight fanfiction
I'm going to go die now
Oh, I dunno.  Edward's not such a bad guy.  I don't know what he sees in Bella though.  She's boring.  No ambition.  Total Mary Sue.
Did I just admit that I know what you're talking about?
I think you did
I don't feel so bad about it now
Well, you should. 
RPatz is rather easy on the eyes, though
it's not like I read the actual books
Yeah, I guess so.  He was better in the Harry Potter series.  Also, RPatz isn't how I pictured him from the books at all.
And there we go.  I'm just all for word vomit today, I guess.  Now that we're spilling secrets.
Well then
So I've learned that you know about Twilight, and like Harry Potter
And I've learned that you've got a crush on RPatz, and you want to change my font.
OH I also learned you live close to the frankenstorm evacuation area
is it that obvious?
Hey now.  I don't let just anyone change my font.  I need to be on a first name basis first.
I guess I won't be changing your font anytime soon
Oh, boo.
Come on, I'll tell you my name. 
You tell me your name first
I can go with that.
Blaine.
You just had to make it sound utterly sincere and real, so I can't make up something ridiculous
Kurt
What, Kurt, you think I'd lie to you?  I mean, you're the style consultant for a prestigious club.
Haha very funny, Blaine
President Blaine.
Well, sooooooooorry
/President/ Blaine
Thank you.  My first act as president is to rename the club. 
Maniacs Anonymous is a little obvious.
So I'd like to put it to a vote.
I'm open to suggestions.
hm... I suck at naming things
The Grasshopper Brigade
Grasshopper Brigade.  Can our logo have a grasshopper with a little plaid hat and a set of bagpipes?  And a bowtie?
Sure, whatever floats your boat
Speaking of floating, I hope you don't mind if I keep texting you tonight.  I'm not really a fan of dying in a flood.
Sure, go ahead, I'm already too invested to just stop, anyway.  It's not every day I join a new club
And dying in a flood wouldn't be becoming of the President of the Grasshopper Brigade
I need to name a successor, just in case.  Since there are only two of us in the Grasshopper Brigade, I think that's you.
Oh, what an honor it is to be chosen, thank you so much /sarcasm
Just know that the passcode to the lockbox is hidden in my guitar case.
You know, the lock box for all of our Grasshoppery things.
Sounds like a plan
[several minutes later] So, I just looked outside, and it is SO weird to see the streets deserted.
It's like, some creepy movie where I'm the protagonist, and I'm going to be hunted or something.
I imagine it would be.  Watch out for any strange people wearing masks
I'll refer them to my style consultant.
I'll get them sorted out straight away... unless they kill me first
I won't let them kill you.  Who would change my font?
Well that's good to hear
I will change your font one of these days
it's my life mission
I like your life mission.  It's different. Most people are like, 'Oh, I'm going to be a doctor and save lives,' or 'I want to teach kids to read.' 
Not Kurt.
Kurt's life goal is to change my font.
; )
Ha
Ha
Ha
I'm not like taking up your texts per month, am I?
Or do you have unlimited texting?
Unlimited.  Of course.
What 21 year old doesn't have unlimited texting?
Well that's good to hear
I mean, I almost scammed you out of $10 back there
back then*
You have a valid point.
It wouldn't be becoming of me to make you pay for these texts
I dunno, this is fun enough that I might consider paying for it.
Oh wow, I actually am worth some money to you.  Or this situation is worth money.  Either way
Sure, I'd pay ten bucks to sit and talk to you.
I'm flattered
Was that too forward? 
That was too forward.
It wasn't that bad
considering we're both maniacs, really
This is true.
I'm sorry, I keep going back to that
Oh, it's alright.  Style consultant.
So, does that mean that I can sit and talk to you sometime, maybe?
Maybe, if we all survive the storm of the year
I'll take that as a positive response.
Dream on, /President/ Blaine
Slightly less positive.
We'll see
Unfortunately, I have to do something now and I won't be able to use my phone
So, I guess this is goodbye, for now
Well, I guess that's acceptable.  Take care, Kurt.  It was nice accidentally trying to donate $10 to you.
Take care of yourself, and don't get swept away by the floods
I'll definitely try. ; )
