What IS it about St. Louis girls? I've had more luck with St. Louis girls than natives of any other city, and I've never actually, y'know, lived there.

What else is there to do in St. Louis?

The answer is, in both cases, The Arch.

That giant vaginal symbol acts as a Mystic Focus for the female sex drive in St. Louis and environs, and it also gives you something to do on a weekend afternoon, if you like riding in tiny little elevator cars.

So, was there ever a definitive answer? Is there one yet?

The question being, what's Jonsey's doing when his lease is up?

a) Renewing if a replacement job can be found
b) Moving to Rochester if no replacement job can be found
c) Moving to Rochester without looking for a job
d) Moving to Syracuse to try to recapture long-lost college memories and mammories
e) Staying in Colorado and making like John Denver and living in the moutains
f) Moving to the "Tattooine of the northeast", Buffalo
g) Moving to California to begin dating Aaron's ex-wife
h) Moving to Baghdad to become new despot
i) Just don't know yet

Oh, and in this case, the answer is not "42".

Oh, and I regret to inform you that Mrs W reminded me that Cleo would probably be a tough nut for you to crack (so to speak), her last boyfriend was a bit of a "prettyboy" - the current feeling that she wants a "pretty" boyfriend, y'know, an Abercrombie model who spends more time on his appearance than she does. In other words, that rarest-of-all men - a heterosexual well-groomed man.

Yeah, I don't know yet.

There are three companies that are in Santa Clara, CA right now getting a presentation from management here. It is currently more likely than not that we will have a buyer. Either way, I stand to make a substantial chunk of change if I stick around for the retention bonus.

I may have misrepresented my position; I am not exactly looking to be anybody's "boyfriend," if you follow me here. Ha, heh, ha.

However, I will keep your statement in mind the next time the Rochester posse is calling me out as being either:

1) Gay
2) Flaming
3) Possessing a "Gay" Aura
4) Possessing a "Gay, Flaming" Aura

... as you lot do constantly. Luckily, logic dictates that one cannot have it both ways: either I come off as an unattainable homosexual bitch and can therefore make a quality play for a high maintenance girl like the one being discussed, or else I am a rugged "man's man" who is straighter than the trajectory of a volley of shots from the Green Arrow.

EVERYTHING'S COMING UP JONSEY!

When's that gonna be? It'd suck if they cough up a healthy bunch of cabbage your way, but only if you stay on until, say, August - at which point, you either move to CA or find yourself at the soup kitchen. Any idea if your lease would allow single-month extensions, should such a circumstance present itself? Guess it's unclear to me if you expect to be finished with them in May, or in December, or somewhere inbetween - or just plain have no idea. (Presumably sooner rather than later, otherwise I would expect that this wouldn't be affecting your annual summer trek out East, nor the apparent question of whether or not you'll renew your lease.)

Hey, if you don't know, you don't know. From what you've said so far, it sounds pretty likely that you'll end up back here in Rochester, the only question is approximately when.

How typically homophobic and insensitive of you to lump all queens, knobgrabbers, lunchpushers, and nutslurpers into one group. Not all gays are "prettyboys" - hell, few men of any kind qualify as "prettyboys", but there is likely a higher percentage of fruitiness amongst that select group. However, it would not be proper logic to conclude that because we don't consider you a "prettyboy", that we don't consider you a flaming fagmonkey - I mean, c'mon, dying your hair is awfully odd behavior for any true man.

That being said, I would have to honestly say that I suspect that you're probably not gay - for example, when we were sharing the townhouse out here, I don't think you ever slipped me the tongue when we kissed goodnight.

Not totally sure. We were told sometime between May and August. We get one week's additional pay for every four weeks they take starting the last week of February (and it's pro-rated). So if they take until August, then I'm looking at a bonus check for like 4 weeks pay.

Probably not. We're not on great terms with them, because they demanded that we take our dish down from the roof and we ignored them. So worst case scenario would be that my lease expires on July 31st, and we get sold in August and they lay us all off. I'd have to find a new place that is on a month-to-month deal. So far I haven't found any place like that out here.

Yeah, I gotta decide what I want to do. If we get sold here and it's business as usual, I may stay: the economy is still shitty, and a job where I can roll in at 10:30 any given day means a lot to me. If we get sold and they lay us all off, then I gotta decide if I want to move back where all my friends are and try to find a programming job there, or if I want to try to get a video game job and move to an area where I know nobody.

I haven't done that since the Saints won their first playoff game, Rip Van Winkle. That was like December of 2000-ish. That game, coupled with my victory in Front Page Sports Football 96 signaled a new and exciting time for me. The dawning of a new age. Get with the times, man! This is like me giving you shit because you used to program in ATASCII.
