now that I finished my jury, I can finally reply to everything you guys have posted!!
Ali, thank you so much for your encouragement and support! crocadillapig indeed !!
Julia, thank you for your reassurances, about "we" and him maybe portraying himself as ultra-busy. I feel special that you remember the subway navigation incident, that you remember details of my situation like that! I would love to sing and giggle by your side!! I decided to do the de falla "suite populaire espangole", bach 3rd cello suite, and the first & second movements of the franck sonata. still a little overwhelming...but less so. Maybe we could do an encore, of a cello recorder duet?
OD, thank you for all your thoughts. esp about "we" usage on the part of the WAS! I also hope that he was thinking naughty thoughts at 1..30 in the morning!! I didn't even come to think that contact dropped off because I wasn't initiating contact, or that my action was a 180 in that way. It is so good to get your perspective. yes, muffins, all in one go!!! or, we could take them with us to our trans-atlantic choir practice!
the thought occured to me while I was brushing my teeth this morning... is it possible that he thinks, since I just let him go, that I don't want him? there's no way for me to know, i guess, and I'm not sure what I to do about it even if I did, except to maybe hmm.... try to project my pheromones more clearly through the cellphone and email waves???
