Well even though this site is retired I thought you might want an update. Also my last few posts were rather melodramatic, take them with a grain of salt. Don't expect these updates often, if at all, but lets recap. I was lonely and so I let myself be psuedo set-up with shona's friend Karen. The bulk of the relationship lasted two weeks followed by spring break (two weeks without seeing her). By the end of the next week I had realized it was a mistake and was prepared to end it if it didn't get better in hte next few days, but she beat me too it that friday night. In addition to this I had realized the alison might be interested (thanks andrew) a while back but by then it was too late to suddenly break things off with karen, and I still wasn't sure where the alison/ian thing was headed for sure. By the time the break hit I knew I had made a mistake and was hoping I would eventually have my chance with alison. That came rather soon as the saterday after the spring break (one day after the breakup - am I incapable of being single for any length of time?) I officially asked her out. Since then life has been great, going out with alison has been great (and we tend to see a lot of each other... at least 4.5 hours on weekdays; think we might be a tad obsessive? hmmm, anyone? lol) and outside of school I'm happy. I have the formal on friday, have to get a tux tomorow and I'll see where life goes from there. Any questions?
