Go big or go home.
I’m in love. That’s all there is to it. I’m either going to get hurt big time or I’m going to be with this man for the rest of my life. I’ve never felt this way before. I’m lovestruck. Jeez.

so, after thursday night’s uneventful, non-meeting with the brit, he apologized profusely and proved to me that he really was in a work meeting until midnight. promised to make it up to me in ‘the new year’. kind of a cop out, but whatever…as of right now i’m busy until january 2, 2009 anyway….
but, just when things were going ‘just fine’ with us....
2008: The Year of the Upgrade has pretty much lived up to its name, at least as far as men are concerned. (Rather than make New Year’s resolutions, I prefer to give each year a subtitle.) You really can’t start out much lower than I did, so I could only go up.
I rang in the new year being dumped by an unemployed actor.
I had a relationship for 4 months with a semi-employed waiter,...
me = sucker.
i’m currently sitting on my couch, in shorts and a tshirt, wrapped in a sweatshirt blanket watching college basketball and drinking a glass of red wine. i should be walking to a bar on my way to meet the brit. but he’s still in a dinner meeting and he’s running late. ‘so sorry’ he tells me.
ways to chew him out are swirling in my head. i don’t want to cry...
le sigh.
i didn’t see the married guy over the weekend. he was stranded in another city a few hours away due to business. it was a blessing in disguise. but once i got to the airport i almost had a breakdown and had to calm myself down. not sure why.
the brit asked me to coffee this week. i told him LAST week that i was kind of busy, but if he told me when and where he’d like to go (ahead of...
No.
beautifulordinaire:
Is 50 too old? If 40 is the new 30 and 30 is still, well, 30 what is 50? I can’t tell. The Sultan is persistent though which makes the age issue irrelevant because the closer someone gets the further I run.
If he’s like most men, you can subtract 5-15 years off his age to equal his maturity level. But if you’re looking for reasons not to like him, you already...
Spending the Night...
Is really great. But it makes the next night alone, a little lonely.
women's health.
found an old magazine. flipped through and landed on this article:
“invasion of the husband snatchers: today’s other woman isn’t a vamp, she’s not desperate and she has no qualms about poachign what’s yours”
married guy and i talked on the phone about two weeks ago. i may or may not see him this weekend.
i want to be able to look at myself in the mirror and...
just cruel.
please note: the previous post about disappointment was not entirely based on my own experiences. i haven’t been totally disappointed recently.
the brit has been in venezuela for the last week or so (on business) and this week we were supposed to get ‘our drink’ to ‘discuss things’. who knows what the eff that means. i was about to throw in the towel when i got an...
matchmaker(s), matchmaker(s)... make me a match?
Have just been transferred to another location for work, aka whole new microcosm of clients. (99% female, obviously).
Yesterday I was offered my first set-up… as in, ‘Ohhhh… you just have to meet my son! You two would be soooooo perfect for each other… He’s soooo handsome, he really is, and so stylish! Very GQ, I’m telling you!’
[note: that is, in...
disappointment cafe...table for one, please?
i’ll order the ‘i should’ve known better’ with a side order of ‘i knew this was going to happen’. and could you please hold the ‘i told you so’? thanks so much.

Approach with Caution
Sometimes I really get caught off guard when I look at him. Because he’s so supernaturally beautiful. And not so much in the way of “he’s beautiful to me”, but he’s just flat out, one of the most good looking creatures I’ve ever seen.

My high school reunion is more than a year away, but already I’m having stress dreams about it. Including one huge fantasy where I hook up with the guy I lost my virginity to. But I go back and forth between wanting him to be just as good looking as he was in high school and wanting him to be horribly disfigured. That’s so wrong. R
