Is This Too Bold? Have I Mis-construed Everything?

Ok – So i’ve liked my personal trainer for a while – and he asked me to go to a concert with him the other night.
We got into the concert and it was dark and I though that he was going to make his move, but nothing happened (although he did have the flu). (It was a sitting down, and watch concert)
I really enjoyed the concert and would like to get to know him better.
At the end I mentioned that we should do it again sometime and he said sure.
Anyway I have a fitness test for my job (which is what i’m training for on Sunday). Was thinking of asking him out for drinks on Sunday night (just him and I) if I pass the fitness test, what do you think? Too forward? Do you think he would be interested? Any ideas on what I should say?
Also a friend suggested that I should just text and ask him to dinner (because she thinks “drinks” could still be friends, whereas dinner is definatly a date) I don’t think I have the guts for this because I still have to face him for training.

Everything Is Going Up Except Our Paychecks. What Are The Less Fortunate To Do?

i work 2 jobs; cell phone agent and personal fitness trainer.
i live in a small town that has one of the highest unemployment rates in all of Virginia. there are store/maunfacturing/business closings or layoffs nearly every week.
most of my friends have recently been laid off (i’m not exaggerating) and things are just looking very gloomy.
so groceries are going up… electric is going up… gas goes up sporadically… it seems like everything is going up except the paychecks (for those of us lucky enough to have a job).
i have lost alot of my personal training clients due to these job losses and there has been alot of people cancelling their cell phone service also due to these job losses (putting me at risk of losing my job as well).
i have even completely turned off my heat because i can’t afford to heat my very small apartment.
i live alone and trying to make it but sometimes i feel it would be easier to just curl up and die.
i feel such doom and gloom i don’t even want to live anymore because it’s just a miserable feeling not to be able to live comfortably when you are very physically and mentally ABLE to work and very WILLING to work but just CAN’T FIND enough work.
am i alone or does anyone feel as miserable about our economic status as i do?
