Thanks! 😀 It’s so interesting the way things are falling into place. (I also have a good friend moving to LA in the spring – one of the reasons I didn’t move out there immediately after grad school is that I didn’t want to be there alone.) Just goes to show that #anythingcanhappen – haha.
And then this past week I won a [very unexpected] sales award at work and the bonus is going to be plane ticket money! Yay!
@LadyE That all sounds great! Good things happen when you don’t fret about them 😛
I have my first date with a guy tomorrow night. This is the guy who is mixed race and I have talked with more. He called me this morning and we chatted for 15 min as he was driving to work and I was getting ready to head to work. Conversation still flows very smoothly, so I am hoping everything else comes together tomorrow. We have plans to play some pool at a halfway point for us.
No dates for me this weekend. I am having horrible PMDD. I’m not actually on my period, but I am having all the symptoms. I’ve been light-headed, having hot flashes, hedaches, tingling in my fingers, and on the verge of tears for no reason. Ugh. So I really don’t want to be around people unless they’re going to feed me chocolate and tell me I’m pretty.
No dates for me this weekend, as I’m currently catching up on work from a coffee shop. My new guy lives just over an hour away, which is not really that far, but it’ll be at least next weekend before we can get together again. It’s been a rough transition from spending all that time together on vacation and now back to real life. I just wanna kiss his cute little face! Also, have I mentioned that he’s foreign? It’s relevant because of his sexy accent and also because of the sweet things he says to me in his native language.
I’m a little lovestruck, in case you couldn’t tell.
Hahaha thanks LadyE!!
What’s his native language @shakeourtree? I have a weakness for accents. I once hooked up with an Australian guy because of his accent. But my weakness was the Albanian guy I used to hook up with. Not the “sweetest” language, but his accent was kind of eastern European mixed with Brooklyn. Idk why the eastern European thing was so irresistible to me.
He’s Hispanic, which is convenient because I already speak decent Spanish. My Spanish is far from perfect, though, and he offered to help me get better, which will be helpful for my job. Interestingly enough, I’m not usually into guys for their accents. I think I just like him and would like him anyway, so the accent is like a sexy bonus.
Also, just booked another date for Wednesday! Mini putt near my house with a sweet guy from the GTA. I think it’s gonna be a fun night 🙂
I know married dates don’t really count but I had such a fun one over the weekend with my husband. It was his birthday (31 to my 35 for anyone pondering age differences lol) but he was stuck a few hours away for work. Thankfully he wasn’t busy so we booked a hotel and I went down for the night. We had lunch then spent the afternoon watching dumb TV, drinking cheap champagne and eating chocolate. We ran out of champers but found a liquor store nearby and got more plus travellers for the walk back which was hilarious because husband was freaking out about being caught drinking and also apparently about me calling him a narc.
For dinner we went to his brother in law’s restaurant and he cooked us whatever we wanted and we drank for free. It was sooooo good. Afterwards we all sat around having a laugh for ages, such a great day. Just what we all needed I think.
