well, don't we all know who i want to grow up to be?

once upon a time, one of you posted a (locked, hence the mystery) entry that included the following conversation (paraphrased):

A:  I think you should ask me out.
B:  Yes I should.
A:  So nu?
B:  I've got some things to sort out, but when I have, I'll call you.
A:  I like you, but I'm not patient; I may not wait.
B:  I like you.  If I need to, I'll wait.

we are less interested at this point in B's excuses and whatnot, and more interested in A's koyech, fortitude, and other expressions of bravery.  i think you should ask me out.  why is it i can't bring myself to say such a thing?

what i came the closest, today, to saying was sort of in between: "so, would it be weird if i asked you out?" only i didn't, because a) e-mail? no, if you can't do it for real, you don't deserve to do it at all; b) i feel icky and gross today, and i probably wouldn't go out with me dressed like this and with my hair in this kind of shape and so forth; and c) i'm really the world's tallest invertebrate.

maybe tomorrow. [chews nails]
