I don’t know that I want to call Bachelor #4 by the name I gave him when we first met 4 years ago…Steve.  Here’s a recap of our first date.  At that time he was called Cute Guy with a … Continue reading →

When that point hits where it starts staying light out past the time I leave work (6pm). Eating crunchy chicken tacos for lunch. Playing games with men who try to play me first (see: Fake Boyfriend) and fail. The plan … Continue reading →

Imagine my happiness when I arrive at the office this morning and saw that Old Uncle Marv’s chair was empty.  “He’s out today!!!” I shouted in my head to myself and my smile was so big it could have rivaled … Continue reading →

Tonight I went on a date. With an Indian dude. Do ya’ll know how much I love me some Indian men? I’m guessing you don’t. But I do. Like l-o-v-e! And he was quite cute. A lil shy. But still … Continue reading →

I can’t see any reason the barista making my drink would need to be wearing her Bluetooth headset at work. I’d like to know you’re talking to me, not the person in your ear. You’re at work. Texting with a … Continue reading →

Have any of you read Haruki Murakami?  I’ve been hearing a lot about these books lately and wondered if any of you readers out there could weigh in?

I’ve never been one to delete phone numbers.  In fact, a couple weeks ago I went through my phone and deleted the numbers of over 100 guys I’ve gone on dates with and never deleted.  I always just wanted to … Continue reading →

…MY dating choices were crazy!  Check out what becelisa posted this morning.  Nothing compares to this.  Someone get me off this crazy train!!!

Why do delis/sandwich shops always pile the meat in the middle of the bread?  Am I the only one who opens her sandwich to redistribute the meat?  Do people who complain all the time/always have something wrong in their lives … Continue reading →

One of the main reasons I hate talking on the phone – I have a short commute so talking takes up my precious me-time. Selfish, right? Second reason I hate talking on the phone – I kid you not my … Continue reading →

Michelle scares me. Like for real. That bitch is cuh-ray-zee! I can’t believe anyone even talks to her. She needs SERIOUS help. Serious. And yet I do not want her to leave. In fact, I think she should get her … Continue reading →

Online dating. From the guy who emailed me to say “I love your dog!” and in a later email told me his bichon has his own facebook page…”with over 50 friends!” To the guy I saw today who had pictures … Continue reading →

If I learned anything from the crazy date with Fake Boyfriend and my month or so seeing Dave it’s that I need to soften it up.  My guards and walls are so high I’m pretty much kicking anyone who comes … Continue reading →

At this point there’s a whole list of reasons I gave Fake Boyfriend the ol’ heave-ho…none of which is the chain thing.  But when I saw this on his tv it pretty much sealed the deal…

After a great dinner with Will last night I was happy to rush home to my sea of pink and white, put on RHOBH and crash. Even the whining of the nutso Camille couldn’t keep me awake, though, and I … Continue reading →

The dark grey rain cloud hanging over my head was almost enough to make me cancel my date last night.  Only unlike Dave’s 2-hour cancellation I was only going to give my Fake Boyfriend about 15 minutes notice.  I was … Continue reading →

One of my favorite baristas made me the most amazing drink this morning.  It was the perfect way to start my day. I kinda feel like an ass saying this, but I don’t like getting invites to co-worker’s baby showers … Continue reading →

Well…it finally worked!!!  And by worked, I mean they looked PRETTY GOOD when they arrived – not perfect.  JamieLynne ordered them and I shipped them overnight yesterday to IL via FedEx.  Compared to the first 3 attempts I’d say this … Continue reading →

I remember sitting in The Therapist’s office a few years ago and processing what he’d just told me about how I probably wasn’t ever letting the men I dated see the real me. I thought a lot about it and … Continue reading →

Last night while talking to Fake Boyfriend on the phone (94 minutes!!! A record for me, perhaps) I discovered that I greatly understated the fantasticness of Sunday night. He reminded me of so many good things…and one bad, but we’ll … Continue reading →
