An Answer Revealed

What is this strange, strong, bony-like structure running from the bottom of my skull all the way down to my backside??



Oh! Wait! It's called a BACKBONE! Apparently I finally grew one strong enough that it stays put long enough to yield results in my pursuits.



I spoke before about Bailey. How I had screwed up the courage to ask if it would be ok to kiss her the night she had dinner at my place. Well we've been hanging out a lot since then. Just socially, gone to a couple of parties together, and had some really good conversations. There's been some fun innuendo in jest (I think it was jesting!) but after I put the question out to her that night and she didn't take the advance, I have not pushed this issue. But I have still maintained my interest in pursuing her.

The other day I surprised her at work with a slice of cake with a candle in it on her birthday. I just happened to be all dressed up and pretty in a summer dress and high heels, and she didn't hide the fact that she absolutely checked me out as I walked in (so did all the guys she works with!). I couldn't stay long, just a brief visit, and a peck on the lips as I left. (Nothing out of the ordinary for me to do with a friend).

It would seem that patience and gentle pursuit pay off. She sent me a text message later saying, "in answer to your question if it would be inappropriate to kiss me, my answer is no not at all".

I haven't stopped grinning all week.
