Definitely not chasing her down. Just trying to buy as much time as I can by being polite, listening, but not talking about terms of the D (it honestly still hurts to think about it, despite my coming to terms with it should it move forward), and not begging her for anything at all.
She is wanting to see if it's possible for me to keep S every weekend that she works (which is literally every weekend). I did tell her I would be fine with that, but I'm about to start this new job that may have me working very strange, long, and random hours. As a side note...she also told me that if I needed any help with the systems I'd be working on, I would be free to call her to ask for her help...that's not something I plan to do, even though she does have more experience with them (just not so much on the technical side). Also, she's trying to work her way into the same office, but in a different department. So that's a bit strange. Fortunately, my job will probably allow me to be out of the office fairly frequently.
Then again, it may be a good thing. Who knows. What I do know is that she's got a way to go before she gets the office job she wants, and I've got my own work to do. It's probably not at all relevant, but it is kind of humorous and maybe a little bit weird.
Anyway, gonna keep on keeping on! Thank you, everyone. I'll check in again soon.
