For whatever reason, there was a lull in the emails. Maybe Natalie was getting settled into her jobs better. Maybe I was doing more than sitting around all day thinking about doing work instead of doing work and maybe I was actually working. Regardless, there was a lack of exchanging of brilliance and ideas and mundane “how was your day” communications of the email variety. Emerging from this dormant period was a two email day. The first being from Natalie asking about my weekend getaway I had taken with some friends. The only notable comment from this entire exchange is regarding a boy building a fire.
10:14 AM
Not too much drunkenness. Hilarious car rides, some hiking, a canoe trip, Mark built a beautiful fire (add that to my “le swoon” list), etc.
Let me elaborate on this “le swoon” list. Every girl has one. These things are facts. It is just a compilation in your head of all the things someone you are attracted to can do that will make you all girly and mushy over them. Apparently, my love of being warm can be satisfied by a guy knowing how to make a stellar fire. This also involved boys chopping wood. Very manly. Very le swoon kind of girl reaction.
So that was the only highlight. Our wit was so drained by the moving fiascos (yes, plural) that we couldn’t even have a standard email conversation. Unless they were deleted. In which case, whoops.
