THE NEXT MOVE ROBERT KIRBY LOOK, BRENDAN, LIKE I ALREADY TOLD YEAH, YOU'RE RIGHT... I MEAN,
SO WHATTYA THINK, DOT? SHOULD I CALL J.T. TONIGHT, OR SHOULD I GIVE IT MAYBE A COUPLE OF DAYS FIRST? i.e. DO I LET HIM KNOW WITHOUT RESERVATION THAT I LIKE HIM OR, CONVERSELY, DO I PLAY IT TOTALLY COOL AND KEEP HIM GUESSING?
You, HE SAID HE LIKES YOU. I'VE DONE MY PART. WHAT YOU'VE GOTTA DO IS TRUST YOUR GUT AND DO WHAT FEELS RIGHT...MY GUESS WITH YOU IS THAT YOU MIGHT WANT TO HOLD BACK A BIT AND ERR ON THE SIDE OF COOL. OK? NOW, CAN WE GET BACK TO WORK HERE? I'VE GOT A TON OF SHIT TO CATCH UP ON TODAY...
