A Good Sign

I said I had determined what would be a good sign. I made a mental list of actions that could be taken, and put them in an hierarchical order.

They were this:

She writes back with a joke - very good sign.
She writes back serious - could be good
She writes back too serious - could be bad
She just doesn't write back - obviously bad

Looking them over, I still think that is the correct assessment.

I really thought I would have to wait quite a while today for any sign.

What I think, though, isn't reality.

She wrote back at 9AM!

9AM! That's early! You really gotta wanna respond to write at 9AM!

Those of you reading from work... it's a different life when you work nights. Like she does. You aren't surfing early to get into the work mode. You are sleeping.

So, when I got up and saw her email, I leapt.

Here is what I wrote to her last night:


Where were you tonight, missy? Missed a great rehearsal.

Is this what I turned Zebra down for?

Phhsss, I've heard that one before.

Drinking at A----i by myself is dumb.


Here is what she wrote:


Well after you dissed me two weeks ago, I didnt think it was worth it
to keep chasing your tail. Go to Zebra, if you really think you'll be
happier there. I'm not stopping you.

Yeah, I'm sad I missed - work pulled one of those famous: everybody has
to work tonight, don't ask off. Super lame.

See u next week? Also, for Christmas, I like perfume.

And you weren't alone at A----i's, I'm sure super-gay pirate was there.


Sounds like she knows she has me.

So, what. I haven't been trying to hide anythink.

What it also sounds like is... I'm in her head. She keeps thinking about that night. Plus, the gay pirate is a reference to the VERY FIRST TIME we drank together there back in mid October.

She can't stop thinking of me.

I wrote back to her. I wrote:


Dissed you? You were the one who couldn't handle a date with me. I guess
having a boyfriend gets in the way of your love life.

---- some serious business stuff here -----

perfume, huh? I took you for a girl who likes bacon.



I must say, that is witty and risky. I brought up the BF!

I pushing. Push, push, push.

This feels good. C'mon, admit it. You love reading about this!

Imagine livin it!
