last night was fabulous. i am going to tempt fate a little and relate it here.

i went out to meet a friend at the belgian beer cafe. he's just finished his law degree. [congrats, again, jason!]

as the evening progressed my attention was increasingly drawn to the other table, and the four (then three) lovely ladies sitting there.

i have not felt so comfortable in a long time.

we talked for hours. they invited me on to the crown & anchor.

i like them, one in particular. will. have. to. ask. her. out. [ should have done last night, but i do move slowly. damn :sigh: must. take. risks. they're worth it. ]

Here is your horoscope for Friday, July 2:

Content? Happy? Oh, yes. So much so that you may let a wonderful opportunity pass you by -- especially if you don't stay on your toes. So what to do? Well, stay on your toes!

actually, i am content. happy.
and i am on my toes. on. my. toes.

edit: have sms'd. am hoping. [wish me luck]

Yes, you must take the risks.

No one else will take them for you.

At least not in such a fashion that you get any kind of prize.

Cheers to that - learned that one the hard way.

And now I'm learning that sometimes, the risk does have a payoff....

Go for it, M!

i've got the ball rolling. just hoping she wants to meet up again so i can do things properly.

yes, and this whole thing has been a series of risks. i'm happy to recognise that i'm no longer adverse to taking them - though i have learned that i have a few small barriers to overcome.

such as actually asking the damn girl out when the opportunity is staring me in the face (literally).

have resolved to fall on my sword if i have to in order to ask her out ... now i have to have just a little bit of patience 'til i can do that face-to-face.

the sms was to say hi and let her know i'd like to call her when she gets off work.

will be trying again soon, probably friday.

don't want to scare her off, but don't want to seem disinterested either.

do wish i was better at this stuff. it's been nearly a decade since i chased someone [and that was a complete disaster ...]

thanks. i would have my own crossed, but that impeded the sms and dialling process :)

things are all quite on the western front at the moment.

and this week is filled with bits of work, and looking after my son for three days. then i go to a housewarming on saturday night. sunday morning i'm off to the country for a week at a country school.

i still hope, but i'm having to focus on more immediate matters.
