Another weekend gone....

Well another weekend has come and gone. It's funny that when I am entering into a weekend and have no plans but wish I did - the weekend usually ends up being a dud. But when I am heading into a weekend with no plans and loving it - it usually ends up pretty good.

This past weekend was the latter. Last week was busy but not.... things like the gym.. coffee with friends... and a trip to Ikea. Friday night I ended up hanging out with a friend and catching up on my sleep from the measely 3 hours I got on thursday night! Saturday day was relaxing...well after I got up anyways. Trip to Lisa's..... trip to Chapters.... vegging and reading that night. It was wonderful. Then today I went for breakfast with a friend... then spent the day veggin on his couch reading and napping. It was a perfect sunday.... my favorite kind. Yes I could have done the same thing at home alone but it honestly wouldn't have been the same. It's nice to have company once in a while.... talking to my fish is only as exciting as it sounds.

Tomorrow I have a pretty busy day at work.... finally getting my review ... social committee meeting at 11am.... and then my usual crazy madness I call my job.

Night all!

Ahhh... long weekends....

Well it's been a nice weekend.

Friday I hung out with a friend.....very relaxing and good company.

Saturday I went to an old coworkers wedding with a coworker.... we introduced 2 women (also coworkers) to their first pub and had a blast! I don't think I'll ever look at tequila without thinking of them! After that I was supposed to meet up with friends for my dear Lisa's birthday but it didn't work out and I missed it :(

Sunday I spent most of the day shopping for her present..... just couldn't decide on anything but finally ended up with some nice things.... and this morning I went over there and finally got to see her and she liked everything. Yay! Last night I was a complete vegetable.....

And today, as mentioned I was at L's this morning... spent most of the day there and then came home. Then realized I needed a few things so I headed out to the grocery store.

And now, here I sit..... I'm restless but I think I'll just be hanging around here all night being a lazy bum! Looking forward to getting back to work tomorrow.....

Wow... I have such an exciting life don't I?

Happy Friday!!!

It's friday it's friday! And it's payday AND a long weekend, could life get any better than that??

Yesterday they said on the radio that May 18th is the happiest day of the year! I think it was a pretty ok day but I'm entirely sure the 'happiest'! :)

Anyways..... life is good.... nothing exciting or new to report but still good :)

Well that definately took long enough....

I know I've said this before, numerous times if I recall, but I am FINALLY there. Yup. I don't even know how to explain it but I'm there. I've probably lost you all (I'm talking like there are actually people reading this damn thing) but I have NO idea if I can explain it.

This whole thing with S has been a very big roller coaster as you all know. I've been getting close but taking so many steps back that I hadn't reached the end result and was having problems getting there. But as of last night, and today, I am. I'm done being 'crazy' and getting all sad. I think you could call it an epiphany of sorts. I had to get him to spell it out and I had to realize how I've been acting to really get 'it' but I do. I could NOT be happier. I can't even pinpoint it to exactly what he said but I finally got it. Yay! I have honestly, truly gotten there.

So........ I am ready for what comes my way but I think I'm going to take a break from the whole 'online' thing as lately it's just been one jackass after another. And I'm a good person and I want to be with a good person :) I deserve it!


Oh and on a side note.... Shadd is gone gone gone! He said something that I just could NOT get out of my head that completely turned me off. And I'm not a prude but I have never been talked to like that. Blech. At least he went away quietly....


So onto more adventures.... my coworker is still trying to set me up with her friend and I'm seriously contemplating it as I could really use a good, normal nice guy right now :)

Crunch TIme

Well I have decided (literally 5 mins ago while I lay in bed not being able to sleep and thinking FAR too much) that I need to liven up this blog. It's so. damn. boring. Snooz-er-if-ic I'd say! I think one route I may try is my dating adventures. Or shall we say the Tales of Andi's Harem......

I think this week I will go back and recount all of them.... yup... right down to the nitty gritty. But only the ones I've actually met... well maybe a couple that didn't make it that far too for good measure. It really has been an interesting and bumpy road. And lately, well, a bit of a letdown.

Now let's start by saying that Murphy, as in Murphy's Law, is my bestest friend in the whole world. Yup. We are very tight. He has stuck by my side now for so long I honestly do not know what I would do without him. And yes, he's definately a 'him' as only a male could do the job.

Ok.... so let's go back to the start.....

1) Lee: nice guy but a funny little brit; we had fun and he was a very nice start for me into the dating scene even though we didn't really date

2) Chad: super nice guy; exactly the type of guy I've *thought* I've always wanted; steady job, wanted kids, adored me, but it was just too soon and I was very much NOT ready for what he wanted

3) Peter: artsy fartsy, cutie, but sooooo NOT my type; we still chat and are trying to get together for drinks soon

4) Jason: ahhh Jason, wow did I lust after this one; thought he was way out of my league; we had a nice little run for a while there around christmas but it soon fizzled out by early January; we still chat once in a while but I haven't seen him in person since January.

5) Mike: stable Mike with the good job, owns his own townhouse, but he's a cat person; never really thought of him in the 'dating' sense as I just didn't feel much of a connection with him; still talk once in a while

6) Kevin: by far the BEST kisser I have met yet; wow is all I gotta say about this one; and after much persuing on his part I really liked him only to have it end abruptly because of an ex; *sigh*

7) Pete: high strung and out there Pete; this one was weird because at one point 10 or 11 years ago this guy was my ex-husband's boss; yup, i live in a very small world

8) Justin: I can sum up Justin pretty quick - boring! He has got to be the most frustrating person ever and the most unimaginative also; we talked for a loooonnnng time before actually meeting and I did like him at first but I got so sick of hearing the same things and being the only talker that I ended that one pretty damn quick; we still chat once in a while and he's still as frustrating as ever!

9) Tom: spent one sunday afternoon with this guy and then he wouldn't leave me alone; I even had the pleasure of receiving a couple picture texts from him and they weren't head shots if you know what I'm saying! Yeah - finally had to block him.

10) Rob: Never have I been so damn nervous to meet someone in person; we really hit it off on the phone and online that I was a nervous nelly going to meet him; he was pretty hung up on his ex and I didn't think he was that interested in me and then I
met S a couple weeks later and that was that.

11) Shane: well we all know about Shane; so much to say but yet I've already said so much; the sad part is he could still have me at any moment and I absolutely hate that; I'm working on it but it's taking a bit longer than I expected; I tell ya - those god damn ex's are going to be the death of me

12) Shadd: yes, his name is Shadd; this is the most recent one that I've talked to for all of 5 days and I'm already 'hon, sweetie, blah blah blah'; he won't leave me alone and I'm growing sick of that very quickly; just a bit too eager for my liking

There's also been alot in between there.... Andrew, Rene(who I celebrated my divorce with), Brad, another couple of Jason's, Craig, Timothy, etc... wow I've sure met a lot. You'd think I would have hit it off with one of them by now!

So.... I have to say that I'm definately at a crossroads with this whole 'online' thing. Lately, it's all just been one bad one after another. I wish I had friends that would just set me up with someone they thought I would be great for and vice versa but I guess there's nobody out there like that. At least then I would know that the person comes with some sort of history and I wouldn't have to worry so much about him being a decent person.

I got nothin......

Yeah... I live such an exciting life. Suuuuuurrrrrreeee!

Ok the most interesting thing I have is that I'm talking to a new guy. Not too sure about how interested I am but I really need to move on. I am still really interested in the guy at work but it appears that we're just going to continue to flirt and that might be it :( Oh well..... not meant to be I suppose. As for S, well he's so damn hot and cold that it drives me crazy. Thank god I have come to expect it so I'm not getting hurt by it anymore. But I am realizing more and more that I really need to take a break from him I think. But that changes daily so who knows!

It's friday, the sun is shining, and my sis and her boys are coming down for the weekend so I'm pretty excited! I need a fix for my favorite little men as I haven't seen them since January!

Happy Weekend all!

Not so angry....

Yeah.... well what can I say? We had a really good talk last night.... longest ever I think. It was good and I got a lot off of my chest. He sort of has a tendency of becoming a recluse and I'm still adjusting to that. Apparently I wasn't the only one wondering and worrying about him.

Gave cutie a ride home again....*sigh*. Don't think he's interested though - or if he is not enough. OH well.....

Going to meet a coworkers group of friends tonight and she's trying to fix me up. Oy vay! Should be interesting...... I wish she hadn't told me though as it's really making me NOT want to go.

Anyways I'm super late..... ciao!

Angry.... hmpf.

Angry at S but not getting into it. He's a dumbass who can't handle "us" as friends. *sigh* What can you do?

On a MUCH happier note, I drove cutie home from work yesterday. It was nice and we talked about a lot of different things (first time we've ever been alone) and now I think I like him even more. I'm such a dork.

Oh and.... I won the lotto! I'd love to say that I won *big* but I'm not shaking a stick at $103!!! Sad that that's all I get for 5 out of 7 numbers but whatever.

Happy tuesday all!
