are you going to be driving to ann arbor during the school year too!? cause that's a freaky lot of driving! but, hey flowers are flowers and your car is none other than the purpetrator (eh heh heh) so you'll have a jolly good time, i'm sure (did you like my slight english catchphrase because i know you like england?)
no, i won't be driving to ann arbor for the whole semester... but i will be for the next weekend. the job ends after that. the perpetrator could do it, though. it's a mean machine if you know what i mean
i always thought it made the best sense to date your friends, because 1. you already know you have fun together, get along, etc. 2. gettin instantly close to someone you dont know seems uncessarily risky in my book (it's like hitch hiking- ya just jump in the car w/ whoever stops to pick you up. but sometimes ya shouldn't take rides from ppl, like for example, clowns or mimes. *shudder*) 3. if you dont want to lose the friendship (in the event that you might break up) then it holds you to treating her respectfullly and friendly above the romanticity of the relationship. like a pyrmaid- the romance is at the top, its not the foundation. so you could drop the romance i.e. break up i.e. make an incan pyramid (i think it's incan, maybe mayan? they have flat tops regardless) and the whole structure still stands.
as you might guess from my random analogies, i finished Provocations last night.
good work, davidmissingmarcusAugust 25 2003, 06:09:16 UTC
nice work, dave. i just finished it over summmer. your advice, as usual, is good and logical. drop by and update me on your weekend doings sometime today.
so i know i dont know you but i just wanted to say this... while i wholeheartedly agree with most of your advice, there is one tiny problem with your pyramidy theory. it just doesnt work that way. while i do think that people can remain friends after breaking up, it is never the same as the original friendship. like say maybe....using the pyramids, that instead of just losing the top at the breakup, the whole pyramid falls down, and with time it can be rebuilt, but now its a different pyramid made of different stones and therefore a different foundation. sorry i'm not that eloquent... just a thought
also, meg, that was trip, my buddy from church and suitemate. you meg him once, i think, but i'm not even sure that you did so i doubt if you remember him. anyhow, i'm still undecided on the whole dating sammy issue. i was thinking today about it as i was walking back from Econ 201 (bleh!) and i thought that sammy was almost too much of a friend for me to date. i guess that she's just too valuable to me. luckily through our dating i haven't done the normal kyle thing and made any moves on her (except for sleeping with her... but not SLEEPING with her). guh! i hate relationships! where's europe at? i'm coming back! : )
