I had to make myself go to bed last night in order to get myself to stop obsessively checking my email. As I was sitting in the car this morning, waiting for it to warm up, I checked my email on my BlackBerry. And there it was... Mark's REPLY!!
I was so excited I immediately got all nervous again and I dropped the BlackBerry into my lap. He sent the reply at 1020, just 20 minutes after I went into the bedroom and refused myself another log in.
Mark's email made me miss him all over again. He's one of those people that writes just like he talks - you feel like you're having a verbal conversation, even though you're only reading his words. He asked me several questions and told me about some of the exciting stuff he's had going on the last few years. Then he suggested that we grab drinks later this week because he'd "love to catch up." He included his number at the end of his email.
I don't think I should be the one to call first, so I'm working on a reply that I'll send from work today. I'll agree to drinks and include my number.
I'm trying to be guarded and not overly excited about the whole thing, but I can't help myself. Writing him back is just so easy. The initial email was tough because I was worried he didn't know it was me. But with this second message, I haven't agonized over my words and what to say the way I have with some of these other guys. Even writing to Casey wasn't this easy. I remember that Mark and I always had really witty banter - over email and in person. So we'll see where this goes. When we get together in person, I'm going to ask him what the heck happened three years ago. Even if nothing happens between us, I'll finally get the answer I've been looking for all this time.
