I ended up breaking my camping chair today. It wasn’t on purpose. It was already breaking to begin with. It was fairly comfortable but now I have to get a new computer chair…back to this kneeling chair which I don’t find too comfortable.

So, tonight, I needed a change. I stopped playing World of Warcraft and just surfing the web and downloading more music when I get this message from my friend Myles on MSN.

As it turns out, he is having another slow night at work and decided to check out this blog. He commented how I really poured into it which is nice to hear and then he asked something that I had briefly forgotten about.

He asked about the girl from the convenience store. It took me a second but I told him she didn’t call me back.

It sucks she didn’t call back but Myles really motivated me to give it another shot. It has been about 3 weeks since that morning now I will try something he said.

To me it sounds a bit forward but hey, I haven’t had much experience…so what do I know? I can only hope for the best. He said I should bring her flowers with my number on the tag.

That is doable, but I do think it will be a bit interesting to go overnight to the café again and have some flowers with me all night.

Maybe, buying her a card would work too. It is something to think about and I have until Tuesday morning to come up with an idea I really like. That is assume she is on a somewhat fixed schedule and working on Tuesdays.

It is settled, that I will try again but I want to add that Myles was really funny with his analogies.

He said, ‘You gotta follow that shit up, life is a game, it’s about manipulating your environment. Apply your WoW thinking to real life. Even RTS”

It is funny and sounds a bit crazy but I can see what he means but just to be clear I’ll try to explain of what I understood. First, WoW is an abbreviation that stands for World of Warcraft. It is a very popular game and it currently has 7-8 million active members. RTS stands for Real Time Strategy. So yes, both computer game’s but they both make sense in a way.

RTS is about keeping your units alive and using strategies to win. In real life, you need to use many strategies to get what you want…this situation is no different.

Well as for the WoW analogy…I’m really tired and I did kinda put this post on hold a bit as I checked a few things on my facebook.

I believe I found one of my good friend's sisters on Facebook...geeze I hope so. I moved out of my grandmothers to my first apartment, then by the time i get settled in and go to check what Mark is up too...I find out his parents sold the house and moved away...so bam, I lost contact with him.

why didnt he call me to tell me you say? because at the time he didnt have my number and let's face it, he is a busy person plus and a bit absentminded (also not many people these days, I find, call their friends parents/grandparents if they know the friend doesnt live their anymore). I was calling him to tell him my new number. It was also one ofhte first none busy times i had at the start. I thought calling then was a good time...clearly I should have called earlier.

Anyways, I left her an email in her facebook account...time will tell if I get lucky.

I was going to write more…but I can do so when I wake up.

TTYL.
