Finding Another Fish
Now Playing: Nick Drake--"Hazy Jane II"
One of the most disappointing weeks since I moved here has come to a close. Ann Arbor hasn't been the happiest place for me, but most weeks aren't marked by the expectations I had for the last one.

Emily hasn't responded to any of about ten phone messages scattered throughout the week and I'm forced to conclude that she isn't interested in any sort of relationship, friendly or otherwise. "There are other fish in the sea," to be sure. I just hope it doesn't take another four years or so for me to find one. Of course, it's not like I really need anyone to go see Walk On Water with.

No word back on the job interview, but a number of other restaurants are hiring, too. So I guess that actually isn't all that disappointing. I felt pretty good today, and still do, so... what am I bitching about, really?

A great week to everyone!

I'm sorry things didn't work out on both fronts. :(

And no, I didn't arrange the books like that just to take a picture. They were already like that. I swear!

"ten phone messages scattered throughout the week"

Tip for next time... stop after two. Acting relatively disinterested is key... otherwise they freak out. Its stupid, but true. The more I ignore people the more interested they are half the time... even if I don't want them to be. It's an odd world we live in... just never act overly interested or excited, play it cool, and you'll have better luck.

This IS true--I should have realized that. It's been a while since this happened, so hopefully next time I'll be a little more circumspect. SHE's not getting any more, I can tell you.

Actually, I think I may have exaggerated--it was more like five calls. Still too many.
