i met this guy the week of thanksgiving
i gave him my number, but i haven’t really responded to his invitations or anything, but i get messages from him about once a week. today he sent me a message pertaining to something we must have talked about in the 10 ten minutes we met. i’m both flattered and a little freaked out. stalker?
anyway, he wants to take me to a show tonight. should i go?

virgin america (which is the best domestic airline) is running a sale right now. from new york i (or you, too) can get a ticket from new york to la or sf for $250. i keep wanting to get out of new york for a couple days, but i must save for my trip to china.
