I was going through some old emails when I found this relic from another unrequited love interest. :D

Hey Dana! It was great to see ya on the bus yesterday. So now that you have my phone # you are welcome to bother me anytime you want. I happen to be awake most hours these days except for when I have a long nap where I drool on my pillows and nothing can wake me up but my urge to waken and visit you. So anyway, what are you doing later? I'm going to the coffee house activity tonight that doesn't start until 11. I guess you could say I'm actually having a weekend like most college students have - but definitely my first weekend without having to do mega mega studying. So what are doing for dinner? Maybe we could go out to eat - and Danny too... that would be fun. Please don't disappoint me and turn me down and make me cry a river and drown the whole world.

Call me .. you got my #.

The cake wasn't spoiled, it was never made. It just wasn't worth it
without you. I don't know about getting allergic, maybe I'd get
dependent. Oh, who am I kidding? I already am Kara dependency issues.
Okay, maybe not yet, but I could see it happening. Sure, it's fun the
first couple of times you try it, but after a while it's all you care
about. Before long your sense of normal is skewed and it just doesn't
feel right without you... it... whatever. But one or twice can't hurt
right? [-ed: if you haven't guessed by now my sense of humor includes
suddenly switching to a play mode where I split off onto a tangent and
dance around a little bit. Sometimes it involves acting out a scene or a
conversation. I blame the Monkees for that. It was something they did on
their show and I was, apparently, very impressionable when I watched the
reruns. Try not to get too confused.]

So you have a horrible chest cold? Has it affected your voice? Do you
sound like a man or just a young woman with a chest cold?

Now that I have your phone number (yippy) I should ask you what hours
are acceptable for calling? Is there a too late or too early to call or
do you simply turn your phone off when you don't want to be bothered?

What would a brain massage be like?

Take care, try not to work too hard.
Dana

I'm so sorry I spoiled your cake. I did not mean to really... :( :(
double sad face yes I am. I will return. I will come back and bring such
sweet sunshine into your life that you'll be allergic when I'm around so
much. We definitely need to have a dinner and a movie night with
everybody. I am definitely missing your smiling face and Danny's salmon
and salad dinners. I have a horrible chest cold so at the moment I am
quite disgusting, but I'm sure I will be popping back into your life
hopely by mid-week if that long. Give me a call sometime .. my cell # is
xxx-xxx-xxxx. We gotta hang out. Again I'm so for so abrupting
abandoning you...K___ just got very sad and not too happy with B______
at the time. I will be moving out of the hotel in a week and will be in
my new apartment style dorm with friends! Hallelujah! Talk to you soon.
Thanks for the adorable email it made me laugh out loud.
K___ :) but you can call me CareBear

This isn't working out. The whole concept of only seeing you when you
randomly decide to show up at the house or randomly cross my path just
isn't cool. My eyes are depressed in your absence. All light is gone out
of the world and only shadowy forms, strange and disturbing, remain. I'm
like a blind man who, through a miracle of science, had received his
sight, but soon after lost it again. Life without you is like a carrot
cake without the cream cheese icing. I'm not saying you're fattening,
just that you make things better. Okay, I don't miss you quite that
much, but I still think we should get together for coffee and/or chi
tea.
