Aftermath

Well, kendo yesterday was awesome... we started doing the foot-stomp stuff, which is hard on the toes but still fun. Hard for me to co-ordinate my hands and my feet, though... my stomps are always landing early (before the shinai hits... they're supposed to hit at the same time). Ah well... that's what practice is for, I suppose!

Oh, and my left foot is basically 1 big blister... well, it's not that bad, but the blister is about 3" by 2"... and there are satellite blisters around it on my toes. Painful, but well earned... still, it was a bit disgusting when the skin started to peel off (there's still about half of it that's obviously dead but hasn't come off yet.

After that, I went and hung out with Andy... we met up downtown for beer and wings (and assorted other deep-fried foods... ye gods, I don't think I've eaten that much crap in months) and she had a rather rough day so we talked about it...
She keeps flirting with me. Or, perhaps, I keep thinking she's flirting with me... probably that. But regardless, very difficult to keep myself from just leaning over and kissing her... but that would be very bad. She might think Patrick would forgive her... heck, he might. I dunno. But that's not the point... I wouldn't forgive me for it. She may be awesome and beautiful and [sigh] just about everything I like in women, but I want somebody that actually loves me... and while I realize that it may never happen, I'm just going to have to wait until it does.

I'm wondering a bit how Andy would feel if/when I start dating... I should get around to asking her that. I probably haven't because I don't really want to know the answer... but sooner or later I will want to know.
