How now, brown cow?

Those four words roll off the tongue as a lighthearted way of asking "What's up? What's next?" And that tripping lightly stuff makes sense, since "How now, brown cow" has its origin in elocution, where the phrase was used to demonstrate properly rounded vowels.
Ron: How now, brown cow?

Paul: Not much. Just on my way to catch a movie with my girl.

what's up now 

A rhetorical question used when one is in a difficult predicament and the circumstances suddenly change in his/her favor, such as when the person in trouble pulls out a gat or when his/her posse shows up ready to whoop some ass. Often followed by "bitch" or "punk" to further assert dominance.
Barack Obama: "Now that I've won the Iowa caucus, I have the Democratic nomination in the bag. The New Hampshire primary is going to be a walk in the park."
(Hillary Clinton wins New Hampshire primary)
Hillary Clinton: "Hell yeah! What's up now, bitch???"
(Barack Obama wins the Democratic nomination)
Hillary Clinton (obviously insincerely): "Congratulations, Senator Obama. I am so happy for you. The American people definitely made the right choice."
Barack Obama: "Three words, Senator Clinton: WHAT'S UP NOW?!?!?!"

To be a "Nowelle" is to be the cheesiest, weirdest yet cutest and best chick on the planet. If someone calls you a "Nowelle" dont take it for granted because they are hard to find.
"You'd never believe it man, i met a Nowelle last night, my life is now complete!"

“Friends for now” 

This stage of the relationship is when two people are getting to know each other as in you being friends for now so you can build a friendship before the actual dating stage . When doing this you spend time together , learn things and eventually grow more of a likeing . However it up to the individuals if they do this exclusively or openly .

In shorter terms it’s a easier way to get to know someone without a title
I would just like to be “friends for now” so we can get to know each other without any pressure
