Well I guess you didn't follow my advise(for the lovelorn) to endear yourself
to the mother. Don't give up.
 
We believe (yes I do have a mouse in my pocket) that we have not begun to
fight. The battle is not lost. All is not forsaken.
 
So you go to the florist and you get ten white long stemmer's and two
red long stemmer's. Now you write on the card:
 
" Roses are red violets are blue, I didn't want to sleep with your daughter
I only wanted you. 
                      Your manly hunk of manlyhood
                      *Wink Wink*
                      *tee hee* "
 
Now this will assuage her feelings of being left alone in the cold dark
reality of old age while at the same time assuring that you get a chance
to dip your wick.  
 
If that doesn't work(?) you might try buying a push cart and walking past
their house yelling:
 
"Bring out your scissors, Bring out your knitting needles. Knives sharpened
while you wait.".
 
Keep us posted, it's time to comb the mouse.

Last night was as good as the night before.

There was a band playing at Felicita's and I went there to see
if some of my friends were around. For the clueless, Felicita's
is the student watering hole on the North side of the campus
at the U. of Vicky.

I went in there, and ordered a pint of Shaftebury dark cream 
ale. It's a mellow brew that goes down easy, and has a nice,
full palate.

I sat down at one of my usual tables in the smoking section,
and started this conversation with a guy who was very drunk
and playing "Tetris." I asked him about the jacket on the 
chair across the table from me. He said that it belonged to
the girl that he had come in with.

This delightful creature (2500 millihelens) sat down and just
introduced herself to me. She must have been one of those
Amazons that ended up beaming to Vicky from President Zank's
planet. (Thank you, Meester Presidente~!) and we talked about
back bacon getting frozen on the Yukon Trail. You have to be
Canadian to appreciate the full cultural significance of this
form of flirtation.

The drunk went away to leak on the floor of the room marked,
"Gents", even though not many "gents" use that place. We kept
up the flirtation by describing to each-other how orgasmic
that monthly bath feels after a month in the frozen tundra.
This was pleasant, and she played "Tetris" against the drunk
while glancing at me with her deep, brown eyes.

She asked me to join some of her friends at another table, and
we all grooved to the local garage band that was upon the
stage.

One of my drinking buddies came in, and so I knew that the
Norwegian Babes[TM] were not all that far away. Vicky was
indeed boinking last night, because Anna hadn't seen her 
boyfriend from Norway in six months. It was a good momentous
time at Felicita's as the guy from Norway was getting drunk,
and I was nursing the Shaftebury.

He kept telling me that he wished he were me, and I kept telling
him that I wished I were him!

His reasons were because I was free, and travelling around, 
eventually on my way to Yellowknife or Montreal, who knows
which. All he does is tend bar on a reindeer farm, or some-
thing like that back in Norway.

I'm very wary of dating people who are practising in their religion, not
because I think they're wrong but  because I don't 
believe in any particular religion and have no intention of joining any, therefore
if things ever came to marriage there would be a major conflict, for example I
believe to marry a practising Catholic you have to either convert to
catholicism or/and promise to bring up your children as catholics, neither of
which I would be prepared to do.


Also, I can't help feeling a helluva a lot of people who sit in a church on
Sundays or whenever they meet are hypocrites in that they only obey the
basic laws of christianity/human kindness in those few hours, the rest of the
time they kill, steal and generally are everything the 10 commandments tells
you not to be.


Any thoughts on this?  Am I way off the mark?

   I'm not surprised the roommate didn't go for you. Dropping someone the
   minute you find someone you're more attracted to is not particularly
   appealing behavior. She probably figured, "what would prevent him from 
   doing that to me later on?" 

Sometimes I wonder about that.  I know of one woman who dated her present
husband when he was still engaged to be married to another woman, watched him
marry that woman and get divorced in less a year, dating him all throughout the
four years or so.

And another one whose current boyfriend secretly dated her without his
then-longtime-girlfriend knowing and who ditched that girlfriend (Maybe. That
is, he could be doing the same thing to her right now).  She's still with him
and has been for the last three years or so.

I wonder what makes these people tick?  It's obvious the abovementioned men are
jerks but what the heck causes the women to stay with them?  Masochism?
It-wouldn't-happen-to-me-syndrome?  Sigh.  Us nice guys do finish last, it
