Welcome!!

Once upon a time a boy looked into the eyes of a beautiful browned eyed girl and said "Beth. . .you are the most socially awkward person I know"
Beth gazed with utter astonishment into the blue eyes of the boy and responded, very sweetly,. . ."Look who's talking".

Prompted by the compliment the boy so condescendingly bestowed, Beth felt she should strive and live up to this new 'title'.
And Yet!!! Is this enough??? What shall Beth do with this newly discovered talent?? It must be put to good use.
One day, while stalking boys on facebook, Beth found the solution to her problem, an inspiring quote:
' I don't need to flirt, I will SEDUCE you with my AWKWARDNESS.' Brilliant!!
Here's the Plan: Beth goes to every YSA activity she can find. Then she flirts with Random boys. Perhaps some will be intimidated but she won't let that discourage her. If Beth is not Married or Engaged by her 30th Birthday she solomnly promises to kiss the first boy she meets at Red Lobster. On her birthday.
To follow the adventures of Beth please read the following blog and offer advice and suggestions of how she can develop her talent most efficiently. HURRY she only has 8 years to go.

Da' Spenca's

This weekend I met 3 guys named Spencer. . .
Spencer #1: Otherwise known as 'Darling Spencer" Please review the Ocean City Maryland trip post if you are unsure to whom I am referring. He only gets more Darling.
Spencer #2: Tall handsome red-head boy who I fall 'madly' in love with. (how could I not? He was tall!) We will get back to him later.
Spencer #3: The kid who got annoyed after awhile because I kept yelling SPENCA!!!' for the sole purpose of seeing 3 guys turn around in response to my obnoxiousness. And then I would laugh!!! heh heh heh. . .

Here are two pictures of me and Spencers.

The first pic we had to explain to Darling Spencer that it was ok to touch a girl. Elbows and armpits didn't count.
Poor Tall Spencer was trying not to drop my hulking body.
Annoyed Spencer was just annoyed he had to be in the picture.



This Pic is much better. And my underwear isn't showing as much.

The Photos were taken in front of The Gettysburg Visitors Center in Gettysburg PA.

We all met together at a three day Young Single Adult Conference 'Sailing through the storm'.
This conference was the BEST YSA conference I have EVER been to. And I have been to many many many many MANY conferences.
We started out Friday night at the YSA branch meeting house (branch is like a congregation in a regular church. . . because my church isn't regular. . .or something. . .) There were about 50 of us there. We started out playing 'Apples to Apples' and that is how I met Tall Spencer. He and I were sitting together until my friend Ethan scooted in between us. I leaned over and in Ethans ear I said 'Me, you, CUTE GUY!' he took the hint and moved. 
We played a mingle games and then went on a Ghost Tour in Gettysburg. That was so cool. Unfortunately I didn't see any ghosts. I don't have that Special Talent. We were having so much fun we didn't get home til 3AM only to sleep for 31/2 hours and head back to Gettysburg.
On Saturday Tall Spencer and I rode together in the Van to the visitors center. He had to sit right next to me because the far seatbelt was broken. Our legs kept touching. :). 
We split into three groups to tour the Battlesite. Unfortunately Tall Spencer was not in my group.
We toured Gettysburg. Went out to lunch and then got ready for the dance. YSA activities always have a dance.
Brooke, Ethan, Me and Laura at the top of the Observatory Tour. It is pee your pants tall. I know because I almost did. 


A group of us at the dance. Matt,the guy in the blue shirt and glasses, and I touched noses. It was kind of awkward.


But not as awkward as what I did next.
So you know how I was talking earlier about Tall Spencer?(prob not because I only mentioned him about 7 times) Well accidently everyone in the entire group found out I thought he was nice. Everyone. 'Give him your number!' ' You should totally give him your number' So I wrote him a note:
Dear Spencer,
I've had a fun time with you today. It has been fun getting to know you

(insert my phone number)

Call me. . .Maybe :)
Beth Orton
(just for the record, we listened to "Call Me Maybe" at least five times in the van as we drove.)
He asked me to dance the very first dance and I put the note in the pocket of his shirt and told him to read it later.
Being rather sweaty and gross from the hot and humid day He and I were taking a break from Dancing and sitting in chairs along the side. And then I suggested 'Hey you want to go to the Mothers room, it is nice and cool and has comfy chairs?' 'Sure' he said.
Do you think it is Awkwardly Seductive to take a guy who is cute into a room where mothers nurse babies during church?
I hope so! If not, then this blog is for naught.

HOLY BUCKETS!!! HE JUST ASKED ME TO BE FRIENDS ON FACEBOOK!!! MY AWKWARD SEDUCTIVENESS IS WORKING!!!

I hope he reads my blog. Then the Awkwardness would be complete. Unless, of course, he deletes our facebook friendship after he reads it.
I don't know why he would. . .

Well I have to go and stalk boys now!!!

bye!
