He asked me what I was doing after lyricafest and I mentioned that I was going to spend some time with "my people" (I was trying to be mysterious and vague, but this seemed to create an uncomfortable feeling) and also try to see my two friends in Hartford, CT (outside of NY) who just had a baby. And he said, "and after you see those friends...?" And I said I was going to spend some time with my family in virginia and was flying back to atlanta on june 17th, and then it was going to be totally balls-to-the-wall business preparation until my july 15th "business and website launch date". I was really vague about how much longer I'd be in NY before going to see my family.

He also told me his plans: he's moving to his new place in brooklyn tomorrow, but he has a subletter there through august. after he moves, he goes up to portland, maine for a few days (I assume for a symphony gig), and then back to new york and possibly visiting his best (guy) friend in VA before his best friend moves to texas. I asked when and where he'd be in VA--this was maybe the most blatant prying I've done so far, esp b/c it's highly unlikely that he and I would hang out in VA...? And then he's out at shelter island being a camp counselor at this music summer camp, and then he has a week break and then he has a 2-3 week grown-up chamber music festival in the same place. He said between now and the end of august, if he needs to stay anywhere in NY he will probably just stay with the cellist in his string quartet (who he is *definitely not* dating).
