Chameleon-like...

[jay]

A few notes... it seems to me that I often adjust my behaviors to match my surroundings... in the sense of acting more assertive around more-butch women, and more tentative and hesitant (bordering on sheepitude, sometimes) around more-femme women. Either one-on-one or in groups...

And I'm still surprised at how differently I feel and behave when I'm with different sweeties. Not that one set is better or worse... just different.

Finally... I'm in DC now, after two first-class upgrades and a nice long lunch with Nancy in Minneapolis. Tonight I hand-delivered my last V-Day batch of homemade truffles to geekchick, including the milk-chocolate-dipped variety that I designed specifically for her, this year. And she met me at the door wearing a long black velvet dress, something Coldwater Creek-like... mmm. (bounce) And let me pick and choose a CD playlist from her garden of treasures (her music collection is diverse, eclectic and huge).

Tomorrow... MEPAG and a SWIM air traffic meeting, both simultaneously in Arlington.

That's because it is. =)

How did you like the music?

yay for Coldwater Creek!

I listened to both CDs through, repeating some tracks. Very good (grin). And I think I understand some of "Number Six Driver"...

One thing I forgot is to print a playlist for each, so I could then manually enter the data in my iTunes... could you print them for me? Thanks... =)

Elvis needs boats

Oh? You mean the song itself or why it was number one on my most often played list? (And if it's the latter, feel free to enlighten me.=) )

I'll print out playlists this evening and bring them. I'll try to get there by 7:45, but I need to come home and change first I suspect. What's the restaurant like? I don't know anything about it.

Well, both, song-wise... not just the Virginia references, but certain "what could have been" angles (faint smile).

Thanks... the restaurant (here (http://www.washingtonian.com/dining/restaurantDetail.asp?id=1836)) is described as hearty-French-provincial, rather than haute cuisine... I'll probably wear a turtleneck rather than a tie.

Heh, see I wasn't thinking any of that while listening to the song myself.

And the restaurant choice was tickled by reminders from a photo that you showed me... in a good sense.
