Mari treated me to a moviedate last night. We actually walked to our seats as the lights dimmed, it was clutch. The two other patrons were noticeably dismayed by our presence.

I found it interesting how the characters, specifcally the male, continued to pursue his dreams and ambitions, continually putting off what should have been a clearcut opportunity for lifetime love. It was fascinating that he thought he could run a successful technology company, make it big, and then still be in a position to find someone–even though someone had already come around.
I think what made the movie for me was how the female’s feelings were persistent. How she emotionally endured other relationships in between and concurrent to theirs but was

nevertheless unrelenting with her feelings for him; unrelenting and passive. I wondered why she wasn’t more proactive. Why didn’t she pursue him more agressively if she knew all along. Why did she give up before it even started.

There’s only so much room to be coy in the dating scene. There’s only so much time to be choosy. Eventually, you’re going to want to share and pursue your plans with someone else and I guess they should have figured out how to do that sooner than later.

In completely unrelated news I’m driving to Richmond tonight. I’ll be back for a SAGE meeting in the morning, and bench painting in the afternoon if it doesn’t rain.
