Pam: to address you question: YES, definitely invite him to the Thursday thing. It's a totally non-threatening question to ask. All it implies is that you'd like him to come to some party. If he says "no", oh well, big deal. Maybe he's busy, and you haven't lost any pride on a perfectly normal and innocent question. Just ask him to the next one. If after the second or third time he still doesn't show, then maybe you should start asking yourself if you're taking the hint. But if he COMES... well, then that's a pretty good sign. I wouldn't go to some party that a girl invited me to with a whole bunch of strangers unless I really liked her. In which case, I'd suggest you ignore the rest of us and spend a lot of time with him at the party, because there's nothing worse than showing up at some hot girls party when she ignores you and you don't know anyone there.


All I can say is GOOD LUCK!!!!

Pam - it's your party too! bring whoever you want. And inviting him to that is not really a date thing so I can't imagine him being weirded out by it whether he's interested or not.

P.S.
Anyone want to take a kick boxing or social dance class with me?

Thanks Jess- that really helps on the building motivation :) I don't actually think he's interested, and therefore REALLY apprehensive about it, but one can hope.

If i get up enough guts - can i invite him to next thursday thing?

Well, when my gut wants to indicate to me he's interested, he makes these funny gurgling noises. Haha I'm a jerk.

I'm not a guy, but I think most guys would be relieved that a girl they were interested in made the first move, takes the pressure off them. On the other hand, I think they get weirded out when a girl they are not interested in makes a move (more so then girls anyway).

A question for the guys:

How does a gut guy let a girl know he's interested in her?
And would you prefer to make the first move or let the girl do it when asking someone out?

Well, Beck, I've seen you juggle. And I've seen you DDR. But, fuck if I've seen you do both at the same time.

Damn Par, that sounds sweet. I'm practicing my Truffle Shuffle as I typo

yay for soccer!!! its been far too long. i second the vote for 4pm on Saturday...since that's when i'm done work.

ugh, me hate allergies. me feel like shit.

and on with business...

Jere, please don't say you're going to Fernie to bike the slopes this summer. I may have to never talk to you again. Ski hills are often designed in areas that are fairly important wildlife habitats - but that's okay, because it's winter, and the animals are sleeping, or not on the hills, and the snow sure does prevent skiers from destroying plant life and soil structure. BUT, in the summer, none of that holds true, and YOU'RE FUCKING UP PRIME WILDLIFE HABITAT BY CYCLING ON IT. I hold the people who do this in very low esteem. There's a huge difference between trail cycling in the mountains - which I don't have as big a problem with - and the kind of cycling that often happens on ski hills... like your pictures sort-of show.

Taylor - good idea with the record-holding idea. I think it's pretty awesome. and I demand to see the final product, because it'll be pretty freakin awesome. and I'll likely want to copy it...

um... what else is there to say? Good luck y'all. have fun at chili's. I'm really looking forward to Morgan Spurlock tonight. So I guess I'll have to talk to you all later. (just over a week left until Lac La Biche!!!) oh, and our first aid instructor is awesome! and he has a newfie accent ('cuz he is a newfie, but still...)
