This may be the first time that I've written an entry for a direct recipient.
In a movie or a TV series, when someone is stranded, the plot conveniently provides him with a radio. He then broadcasts his mayday to every channel available, hoping that someone will eventually pick his transmission. Think of this entry as a broadcast. I'm in no danger, and I'm in no need for rescue, but I'll exhaust whatever means that you've provided to get this message across.
I think that you're no stranger to what I write here. Since you won't give me some alternative means to contact you, I've exploited this blog to its full capacity. I noticed that you would only visit this page when you see me comment on one of your friends' blogs or tagboards. I found that effective. I think by the time you're reading this, I probably would've dropped by your blog or your friends' blogs again.
Enough of the introduction.
My message is short.
Let's have coffee sometime. Why? Because I think that would be fun. We could OD on caffeine. This might be the first time that I look at the overpriced coffee that I'm drinking and think that it's actually worth it. The last time we talked I told you that that was the best time that I had in weeks. Little did I know, that would be the highlight of my summer.
I think that it's very crucial that I get this message across because the chances of this happening is very very very slim, and the numbered days of your extended vacation is not helping. Thus saying, you never said no but I think I owe you the courtesy of interpreting your silence as a way of saying no. But still, I think it's worth a shot.
If you recall that moment when we talked about risks.. If you smiled at any part of this message, this risk would be definitely worth it.
