Can you "break up" with a friend?
I've never offered a girl I was interested in an ultimatum. I'm not sure what my other options are anymore. I swore I would never put myself through this again.

What on Earth compelled me to e-mail Catherine while I was hammered at 2am last night. Seriously, how did that seem like a good idea? Oh well, thank God for "sent mail" folders, so that I can at least see what I wrote whilst in a more sober state of mind. Good God, that e-mail made no sense at all.
Moreover, I've lost 3 consecutive...

Well, I think I've been putting off this update for long enough now...
Halifax was fantastic. The conference, not so much. Fortunately I skipped the majority of it to accomplish such worthwhile causes as attempting to jog accross the entire city. It's funny because it was bright and sunny the whole time the conference was on, and I was supposed to be trapped indoors, and...

Well, off to Halifax to present at the CSC for the next 2 weeks...
Tried to sneak in one last get-together with Catherine before leaving tonight, but she was watching movies with her sister frown
Oh well, had a good night with her last night...can't win 'em all...
So seriously, how does one go about taking the next step up from "friends"? I'm really no good...

Bedtime.

Ah, May-long...
So I went out camping (busted out the old VW van) with a bunch of friends (and Catherine) this weekend. She was supposed to stay in the van with me, but unfortunately due to some last minute shuffling and rookie campers who didn't bring tents, I was forced to endure the cold nights sans hot chick frown
What a good time though. Gratuitous quantities...

So I started 4 fires in the lab today. Damn potassium...Good thing I had the ol' liquid nitrogen handy to smother the flames (they were precariously close to the 4 liter drum of organic waste solvents).
Off to Kelowna tommorow for the Western Canada Inorganic Chemistry Discussion weekend. All in all it sounds like it would be a fun weekend except for all the chemistry....

And so we enter day 2 of e-mail withdrawl. I have to admit that I miss the constant semi-conversation with C. all day. It certainly made the days go by more quickly (if not somewhat less productively). Ah well, the girls in my office have decided to do what they can to help, and I get random e-mails from them throughout the day now to...

Why, thank you sir! And while I am merely an audience of one, my loyality is unwavering kiss

Crisis averted? At least it seems so for the time being. At least until the next time she mentions the word "date" not pertaining to me...Ah, the joy of ambiguous friendships. C. and I talked fairly frequently the last couple of days, and I was actually instructed to call her when I got off work last night so that she could ditch the ass in...

So she e-mails ten times a day. We hang out multiple times a week. She gets all girly and excited (very out of character for her) when I bring her flowers. She jokes around saying things like I should come around more often so her kitten will have a father figure. She knows I like her, and she dances around the issue, teasing it ever...

Wow, didn't realize how pathetic some of that sounded (ie: never even kissed her...) until I proofread it. At least I think it was gramatically correct. Gotta have something going for me...
rexa:
Your grammar, sir, is impeccable (although, you used a period instead of a question mark after "What the fuck". Nobody's perfect). But I would like to offer testimony to the fact that you have much more going for you than your verbal skills (clearly, you had help with those...say, from a thesaurus, maybe? wink ). You do make a fantastic best friend, but I hope that only the most deserving woman gets the "next step up". And it upsets me that you seem quite distraught; if there's anything I can do, please let me know. I have very little to offer in the way of advice on how to avoid heartbreak, however, and I apologize for that. Head up, there are people that love you.
