an impossible courtship: i’ve neglected
an impossible courtship: i’ve neglected telling anything about my endeavors to get hat girl to come have coffee with me. well, i’ve neglected that responsibility long enough.
i tried hard to make her laugh, mostly through email. i thought myself somewhat successful, being as she always emailed me back, and nicely, i might add. the way i got her email, is tricky, subversive, and downright cowardly, i admit:
i emailed our entire class, when it was in session, some inane question regarding our final. in hopes that someone (she), would email me back, i addressed the entire class, and she did reply. there, i had her email.
we seemed to have a pleasant rapport. after two or so weeks of comment/response, i eventually figured i’d ask her to coffee. i did, and was refused. not outright, not subtly, but in a manner that seems almost offensive to me. she completely ignored my email, and wrote back commenting on some other sorry state of affairs, talking about some other guy (dan, actually), and etc., etc. it all seemed kind of childish, but now that i think about it, me writing this seems kind of childish as well. there’s plenty of other things that i’d rather try to not worry about. does that make sense? i don’t even want to waste my time trying not to worry about this, because there’s plenty of other things for me to not worry about.
i hadn’t bought a pack of cigarettes in 3 weeks. after i received her email, i went to the smoke shop.
