I cannot believe what had happened. Did I actually punch Toby? Did I actually have a full on fight with him? What is happening?! How did my life take such a dramatic turn? Argh!!

Toby ... what he did ... I just cannot comprehend it. And what he said about not coming to him when I found Santos. And insulting Santos! Who does he think he is? He said and did all these things just because I didn't include him in my plans?! I mean he was the one preaching about staying with the Bartlet administration till the end. Preaching about loyalty on top of that! To hell with him ...

I'm currently standing here near the cocktails taking a break from smooching with senators I honestly don't give a damn about. Oh, no ... just when I think this night can't get any worse ... I just saw Donna.

Why does she have to look so damn gorgeous?! I see she's also smooching with people she doesn't care too much for. I bet she's doing a much better job than I am. Then again, when isn't she?

It has been pretty much `hi' and `bye' between us since we came to DC. Which honestly feels even worse that before as this is where we should be at home. This is where we should be most comfortable. Well ... I guess we were quite comfortable in the closet.

"Is our relationship about to change?"

What kind of a moron was I to say that? Was that a sick pathetic joke? On both of us? My damn mouth keeps letting words out before my mind can ever catch up! Luckily Donna had enough sense to ignore my dumbass comment.

Being in such close proximity to Donna was one of the most uncomfortable and comfortable positions I've ever been in. I felt like we were falling back into pace like how we were but at the same time I knew it was not going to last. I actually had a hard time breathing in there let alone concentrate on what she was saying.

She had the most amazing smell….like she always does. I didn't realize how much I missed just her smell until she was that close to me again. For a second there, I felt the past was catching up with us. But who am I kidding? She is working for Russell…She's always going to work for him. Things are not going to change.

I keep telling myself to move on. I keep thinking that I could move on….But I've never been able to. I mean look at her! She looks spectacular. Her navy blue dress makes her blue eyes look like a deep sea that I could drown into. Note to self, avoid Donna's eyes! And her beautiful, gorgeous blond hair ...

"Josh Lyman!"

Okay, back to smooching another ass!
