Here it is, February already. I am not a superbowl fan and almost everyone I know is going to a superbowl party today. I have been speaking to an old friend over the past 3 weeks, I have known him since I was 15 and in high school, we used to go roller skating together and I hung out with his sister. We have kept in touch on and off over the years. He is just out of a relationship, he left her recently because he felt neglected and the love had ****. We are going to go for a ride today and out for dinner. He has shown up where I work twice this week with coffee. Apparently he claims he has been in love with me for over 20 years but one of us has always been in some kind of a relationship so he settled for the friendship. Again, slow and sure, I will test the waters. I have always thought of him as a close friend and find myself now looking at him through different eyes. I have a lead on an apartment that is affordable and about a 15 minute walk from where I work. The only problem is that it is about a block over from Barrys house, but at the other end of the street. I really do not want to run into him, but I do like the area and also the rent. I think I will go and have a look at it and go from there. Hope everyone is having a great weekend and a nice superbowl day. Deb
