thank you so much for reading, and for all of your good ideas!!!
I have a couple ideas about what to do next.
* I need to email B the list of schools I brainstormed for his brother, maybe with something fun, sexy or sassy attached?
* I could text him the night of his break-of-dawn flight to Maine and say something like, "I hope you have safe journey and get lots of sleep on the plane!!" Sort of like he texted me before my recital.
* I realized that I didn't tell him I'd be in Boston at all. Boston and Portland, where he'll be doing the orchestra concerts, are only 2 hours away. It sounds like he really doesn't have anything he needs to do the first two days I'll be in Boston. I'm not sure how to work this one... I think if I went up there it would be REALLY obvious I was just going to see him, and maybe perceived by him as pressure. Or, if he really wanted to see me, he could come up with some excuse to come down to Boston. This would probably take, as of post-bomb, unprecedented enthusiasm and vigor on his part, unless I was inviting him to do something SO EXCITING he WANTED to travel on a bus for four hours roundtrip to do it. and I might just be setting myself up for disappointment. when we were together he wouldn't have thought twice about jumping on a bus to see me, but obviously we are in a different place now. thoughts???
