Dating update!
« on: February 20, 2009, 05:30:03 PM »
Well, it's been just over two weeks since our first date, so I figured I'd throw up a quick post in case anyone is remotely interested in the haps.

You may remember we went out for Thai food and oysters two weeks ago yesterday.  Following that we went out last Tuesday and went swimming/lounging at a heated pool/sauna that a friend of hers works at.  Following that we went out last Friday with a couple of friends of mine, then I drove her home.  You may recall that last friday was the day before Valentine's day.  What did we do for Valentine's day, you ask?  We went out for breakfast!

Feel free to fill in the blanks.

Since then I saw her sunday, tuesday, and I'm seeing her again tonight!  I am smitten, my friends.  Absolutely smitten.  This girl is incredible.  I gotta keep myself under control or I may kidnap her and force her to live in my closet! 

Also, in case anyone is paying attention to the math, within a week of meeting her I had a date, and within a week of the first date we were dating.  That's how you get it done, son!  I ain't got time for no jibba jabba!  Now that it's clear we've got something going on it's cool to relax a bit and take my time;  I'm not trying to get into something SUPER SERIAL right now since I just got out of a 3.5 year relationship a couple months ago.  However, don't spend any more time in the what-if zone than you have to.  That zone is for chumps!

editted because I had too many exclamation marks because I am SMITTEN

edit edit:  Actually, I lied about the math, it was a week and a day between the first date and the third date where we became a thing.  What is WRONG with me

Congrats!
All right, I’ve been thinking, when life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man whose gonna burn your house down – with the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!

this post makes me happy - it's like a 4 thumbs up post.

much better then a rant about breaking up or how you didn't get the girl but are busy stalking her. Of course, I am sure you'd make a post about stalking a girl funny. Damn you for being so dang charming even in text!

poor girl didn't stand a chance really.  

((also, some of my favorite things about your posts are your reasons for edits, not sure why...maybe cause it's not something people usually do))

I'm not trying to get into something SUPER SERIAL right now since I just got out of a 3.5 year relationship a couple months ago. 

Meaningless.

Glad you are having a good time - sounds really exciting.

Thanks for all the well wishes everyone!

Virginia is not covered in snow, but it is extremely, extremely cold.  It's shenanigans. 

I don't really have anything else to say; no exciting developments aside from the fact that she made a Death Knight on my server.  Which is awesome.  Also we're going out tonight for fat tuesday!

So, yeah, thanks again guys!

Congrats! Good job on seizing life!
Will I get Night Owl points for quitting but not as much for getting fired?
Will I still be a member of the Owl's Pals? I'd hate to turn in my card. It's got a real owl feather under the lamination and everything.


Night Owl: Oh, indeed. I quit many a job ...better than being fired. You can keep your card... in fact, you get double points for quitting!

shenanigans.

Some of you know I went to Virginia Tech; Julia and I were there over the weekend for this formal event I attend every year.  She'd never been there before so I got to show her around; it was fun! 

Picture!

edit: note that while my hair is naturally red, her hair is naturally brown, but she has red highlights atm.  Why do I bring this up?  Because she makes fun of me for having red hair occasionally.  What the hell kind of sense does that make?  CRAZY WOMEN MAKE ME CRAZY

also I really need to clean this picture up now that I actually look at it.  It was in the 'dancing and general mayhem' portion of the evening so the lights were pretty low; my suit appears to be melding into the darkness.  Also I think there's a grue behind us.  Note to self: remember to fix picture even though there's no way you will actually remember this so I can basically say whatever I want.  Hey, me!  You're stupid!  What now!?
