I LOVE THAT CAT LADY DRAWING!!!! I WANT ONE!!!!
In other news, this blog post couldn’t have come at a better time. http://clarityonfire.com/how-to-trust-your-gut-feelings
Yesterday I decided NOT to go out with The Professor again. My best friend asked me WHY NOT?? And I told her, because it’s time that I start trusting my intuition. It’s there for a reason, and the whole point of taking a break is to build a better relationship with myself. Therefore, I am going to trust myself 🙂

kare – all your costumes sound amazing!
ver – I wouldn’t have invited him either. I hate worrying if someone is having a good time, and since you’re the host, your attention can’t be on one person. I actually think it’s perfect for a Halloween party that your place isn’t entirely unpacked.
Dre – I’m glad you made that decision. Trying to force something that isn’t there is ridiculous. Listen you your gut. Or DW. Not your friends!
@Ver since your place isn’t unpacked, what if you threw some dusty tarps over some boxes and furniture to make it seem like the place was abandoned and might be haunted?
Good for you, missdre! I really like that article, too. I am really about listening to your gut instinct. That includes the vibe or feeling you have around people, too. This isn’t exactly related to your life in any way, but we talk about the book, The Gift of Fear a lot. It’s good to trust yourself.
I also don’t like the idea that women need to “be nice, and give it one more shot.” No. No one owes anyone anything. Your feelings were pretty cut and dry after that first date. I wouldn’t even say they were lukewarm. You literally said you could care less if you never saw him again. Even if the date was boring, or you were both having an “off” night, I think you’d still have felt differently if you were a good match.
In other news…I cannot believe it’s Halloween this weekend! Where has the time gone?
Aww thanks guys! I’m going to frame it at some point. I need to focus on finishing my costume for Saturday. Eek.
Also, a haunted housewarming sounds amazing. I like the idea of putting old sheets or blankets over everything. The spookier the better!
My FWB has a side job reviewing haunted houses, and I’m super jealous. He gets to go for free and skip the lines. But going to a haunted house alone also sounds terrifying.
I decided yesterday that whatever my plans are for Halloween (still up in the air right now) I am gonna dress up! I changed my mind and want to do Cleopatra/Egyptian Queen costume. Since I have tomorrow off for work I am gonna roam around second hand shops and hopefully gather supplies!
Everyone’s plans for Halloween sound really fun! We have a costume contest at work and I am going to go as Static Cling: black t-shirt & leggings with socks and dryer sheets pinned on. Not very elaborate, but I decided last-minute and the costume I really wanted would’ve been too expensive to ship, so this’ll have to do.
been seeing cutie HS math teacher for about two months now. we’re going to see antibalas tonight and friday he’s taking me out for dinner/drinks. i like him A LOT. we’re not exclusive, although we’ve danced around the subject. he knows that i’m looking for something long term…i’m thinking that we’ll have the talk on friday and if he doesn’t want exclusivity/long term – i’m gonna have to bounce…can’t be investing all this time on someone who may not be on the same page i am…
@floats_in_the_ocean, good luck, I hope you’ll get the answer for looking for! Two months seems like a reasonable amount of time to decide whether you should be exclusive or not. Unless you haven’t seen each other often during that two month span.
