and...guy update
"Well, we could do the standard coffee if you are into that sort of thing. I also have some sticks in my backyard that I could fashion into a campfire although my house is a sad story to look at in its current state. I have on my to do list to build a chicken coop so that is an option. We could always do some arts and crafts too. Rummage saling if there are any, or a trip to a thrift store are good options."
really? build a chicken coop? this came last night as i was in the throes of being upset about the job situation. chicken coops and rummage saling were the last things i wanted to hear. also campfire. i hate campfires. i know i'm probably the only one, but i do. smoke gets in my eyes (and the wind follows me if i move), the nights are always too cold (so either my butt or my face freezes), and while a fire smells nice, afterwards one's clothes and hair stink. i went to bed afraid that he would think i was boring for just wanting to do coffee, but knowing there was no way i was doing anything else.
it helped to sleep it off. not knowing how much of this was him kidding, i just decided to forget the rest. maybe someday i can give in and try the other things, but for right now, i don't know if this will go past coffee, so there's no sense worrying about it.

oh for heaven's sake. it all sounds quite charming. and yes, he could be kidding.
sounds more like he's trying to be funny than serious - i'm sure he expects meeting up for coffee rather than anything else haha
haha, i enjoyed his response. :) and agree with the others, i just thought he was being funny. :) he sounds like he's clever and got a good sense of humor! and maybe he'd be good for you, get you out of your comfort zones. you never know, you might have an untapped passion for chicken coups. :)
"untapped passion for chicken coops"
Oh Chelley- that was fantastic!
I think he's kidding, but I do know lots of people who would love to build a chicken coop -so perhaps you might want to ask. Or simply state that you like tea (and ice cream) and that while you like shopping sales, it's at a regular store and mainly because you can buy 2 pairs of fun shoes instead of one! :)
I agree with everyone else and I agree that fires stink and make me sick too. But chicken coops are fun :-D.
Haha! He sounds very funny. Or weird. But I'm going with funny. (Because, as an indoorsy person, I wouldn't be thrilled about any of those options, either! A CHICKEN COOP?!)
thank you, hm! everybody else thinks i'm nuts.
i don't think you're nuts, just overly worried :)
but obviously i can relate some
