Well, maybe it's once again a You Americans And Your Strange Courtship Rituals thing, but I do understand her. Sometimes I remember to call/sign someone (not just romantically speaking) when I'm too tired/not in the best of times to chat, but I want them to know they're on my mind, even if I can't give them the full attention they deserve at that moment.

All in all, I'd take it as a good sign. And I'm glad you have someone to get all excited for.

Also, P-C, good luck. Hil, I agree with what everyone said - I often complained about the situation of my university, and they don't allow students to do half of what you described here without a warning. smonster, about your group of six - that's why, sometimes, I'm glad that at 18 people here are being sent to the army.

And bonny and Sox - my dears, continued ~ma.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I guess the frustrating part is, I was just starting to get to the "sour grapes" moment mentally, and ready to move on. So confused! I'll text her when I get home tomorrow and see what time she gets off work.

Sounds good, omnis.

Now c'mon, professors. Let me know what you think of my final, revised budget proposal.

Hope your budget is amazingly well-received, Shir!

Much strength to bonny. Wishes for a peaceful passing for Niki.

I'm sorry, bonny. Much peace to you and to Niki.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm sorry, Bonny. Wishing you peace.

omnis, it could be that your co-worker is just feeling a bit conflicted about the idea of getting involved with someone in general. For me, when there is interest shown by another party, it can throw me into a sort of panic mode. In short, her mixed signals may be more about her than about you.

Bonny, much peace to you and yours.

That. Also? Anne is me.

AHAHAHA! Yes. Man, it took everything I had to not run away the first time the first chance I had after he kissed me on that fateful day.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

bonny, peace and love to you and yours.

Tep, I'm sorry about your uncle.
