I’m all better!

Could have been allergies related to a spur-of-the-moment jaunt to Lake Jackson on Monday.


Weird…I’m not really allergic to anything but large quantities of dust.  Oh, well.


All that matters is I’m not sick, and I feel great.


And our weather turned cool.  This is
good spring weather.

And I bought a jean jacket this morning that I’ve been lovin’ all day because of the chilly breezes.

And I also bought a yellow dress, with ruffles on the skirt.  I must be insane….but I almost couldn’t help myself!

  1. You are insane.But then, of course–you’re Scotch-Irish!And Norwegian, so you probably get that “berserker” problem, except it’s while you’re shopping not fighting.

  2. OK, I have to be careful because some people up here actually take the time to read comments others up here make on posts other than their own. Yes, there is a girl I was wondering about. I knew there was another guy involved, but I was kind of hanging in because…well, for the same reasons we all would. Some stuff happened that kind of showed me she is very fond of me, we are developing a kind of intimacy, but I am obviously just a brother in her mind. The other guy is the date. She was even on the phone with him when I got there and actually told him “I have to go, Jon’s here”…in my mind, if I was a prospect and not just a brother, she would never have openly told him that on the phone (or at all). Maybe I am just confused, but that is how I see it. There is another aspect that just seals it that I really can’t divulge here without giving away identities (to anyone reading from up here) which I don’t wish to do. So now I am in a quandary, because this leaves a pretty sour taste in my mouth so I don’t really want to be around her, but I can’t really tell her why without in all likelihood losing the friendship and alienating her completely. From a guy’s perspective, once she sees you as the brother or the buddy instead of the date, that’s pretty much who you are for life. People always tell me I should be friends first, but it sure seems like I always end up being the pal while some other guy actually gets the girl…it’s very frustrating and I am pretty much over it because I am not a casual dater or hanger-outer …I’m really pretty shy, so I have to really like somebody, romantically or not, before I can overcome it and make the effort to spend time with them. Anyway, you are very astute…another of your redeeming qualities.
