Sudden Popularity

I've become a popular girl suddenly. Friday night I met up with the new guy for coffee and playing Set. Anyone who knows me and my Mennonite heritage knows not to under estimate my love of card games. We ended up closing out the café and having to move on to a 24 hour diner for carrot cake and political talk (including an intense discussion about vaccinations and ethical research methodology). So awesome night! Obviously this one has serious potential.

Then tonight I was supposed to have dinner plans with Puppy Dog Eyes to meet for sushi, however, the rather icky weather did away with those plans. While I had planned to still make the half hour trip to go meet him anyway, and end things after this date, he was the one to insist on rescheduling, since, after all, he has to walk. Which reinforces my decision to end this right now.

Yesterday presented a fun little curveball though. After almost two weeks of complete silence, Mr. Whirlwind shows up out of nowhere. He just shows up. He says "Hey hun, it's been a little while, let's do lunch and catch up, I miss you." So nonchalant. A long conversation has taken place since then and he seems to be trying to pick up on the hot and heavy note the he left off on. He's not understanding that this isn't possible. Depending on how he decided to approach things, I might be willing to try things out more slowly, but I can't go right back to where I was with him. The landscape changed there.
