Quandries

Some quagmires presented by the past few days:

-Catie's new boyfriend (as in a few months) Paul looks like he's going to be long-term. He just spent the week up here with her. However, every single time that I have left them, I have had an awkward good-bye with Paul. Here's why:

1. Catie and I are best friends and are thus at at least a hug goodbye stage.
2. I have known Paul for approximately 100 combined hours of social time. Not a lot in the grand scheme of things.
   
3. Paul has passed the best friend screening and been accepted by both Krystin and myself.

Therefore, I feel like I shouldn't shake his hand, because we're friends, not partners in a law firm. I don't want him hug because I don't know what his physical bubble is with other men. Plus, we haven't known each other that long. But, I feel like that he's too much within the inner circle for me to simply wave at him as he leaves...that seems like a snub. However, I have awkwardly waved at him after hugging Catie every single time. And it just doesn't feel right. So, before the next time I see him, I have got to figure out what and how to work this.

-I, by my nutrition report, consumed 9,000 mg of sodium in one day. How did I not die? Or piss ocean water?

-I only slept three hours last night, yet I'm still cognizant and fairly high functioning. At what point will I fall over and die.
