Strawberries are the best fruit ever
I lied when I said the next post would be a special "Would You Rather" edition, but I had some stuff I wanted to talk about. For starters, last Saturday was my 22nd birthday. Not a horribly bad day, however it did kind of suck. Got up at 7 so I could go to work from 9-5, found out the skirt I was going to wear had a broken zipper. Spent 15 min. trying to fix said zipper and ended up a bit late for work. Work wasn't bad, tried to call Maggie to see if she wanted to go out for lunch or something but couldn't reach her. Went to the Pizza Challenge at Westgate to pour beer for 4 and a half hours, turns out that instead of pouring beer we were twisting the caps off of the bottles. My hands, while not soft, are not used to having to open over 500 bottles of beer in one night. So Saturday night and all of Sunday my hands were blistered, swollen, and really sore. To add to the soreness, I was standing in puddles of water from the melting ice all night, so my pants and shoes/socks were really wet. At the end of the night I had a couple beers and some pizza before heading home. So like I said, not a horribly bad night, but not what I had in mind for my birthday. I think, between us, Maggie and I haven't had a good birthday in about three years. Maybe next year.............
Another reason I'm posting to day is that it marks another sort of anniversary for me. 2 years ago today was the end of my longest, and really only, serious relationship. Sure there have been guys since then, maybe a week here and there, but nothing longer then a month really. For some reason, people (guys) find this hard to believe. When I ask these people why they have trouble with the idea that I've been mostly unattached for the past two years, they say that I seem like the kind of girl any guy would like to have. Ironically, most of the people who say this are my guy friends.
I think part of it might be that I'm scared any new relationship I have will end up with me getting hurt. Every single guy I've dated has left me. Not one of them ended with a mutual breakup or with me leaving the guy. So, since I'm scared of getting hurt, I'm scared of starting a new relationship because the only end I can see is one in which I will be left alone and hurt again. Because I think that, it comes out in the way I act around guys who are interested in me, which might be the thing that turns them off the most. Honestly, there aren't that many guys that are interested in me, so the last thing I need to do is mess stuff up with the few who ask me out.
Bah, to much thinking for today. See what happens when I don't have classes to take up my free time? I think I'll go outside and play in the garden.

Hey Tramp Tartoline
Get a clue! Get yourself a guy then wait until you're at the height of your lovey dovey stage and then dump the douche. Then do the same with 3 or 4 more guys. It'll not only make you feel much much better but you'll get a reputation for being a heart breaker. Then when you meet a fellow you really like he'll be amazed at the reputation and try and hold onto for as long as possible.
Problem solved
Joe, the biggist thing that bothers me is that they keep leaving. I keep thinking something is wrong with me, even though I know there isn't. I guess it's true that psych. majors all have their own problems.
Satan. interesting way of looking at things, I'll keep it in mind. Although I can never seem to find a guy that I could just dump for the hell of it.
You could always try batting for the other team...
If you have trouble finding those guys just tell them you're open to all sexual relations but are predominately gay. Works every time.
If you listen to the Dr and I think you should, can I bring a camera??
Joe: I have been doing a lot of thinking about it, bu tas we all know, very little good comes from me brooding. The problem will work it's self out in time.
Dr. Fryer: I'm not really sure how to take that statement. Although I can tell you that I am far to fond of the guys to go over to the other side for a long time.
Satan: Depends on what kind of camara. Are we talking video, digital, or film here? Also, if you sell the end result, will I be getting a portion of the profit?
When I can, I'm a digital man. Film is too much work, not to mention expensive. You've got to think of the bottom line. Of course it'll sell, I'm a very good filmmaker, and the profits will keep you in crack and lubricant for a year.
Personally, though, I wanna know how you got from "I am bomb ass hot" to "there aren't that many guys that are interested in me". Doesn't seem to make sense. But then again, women rarely do. Honestly.
Damn it, I 'm totally getting rid of the anonymous comment option.
Ok, first off, I am bomb ass hot. Just because I look good doesn't mean that guys will be interested in me. Yeah, I may talk a good game, but thost who know me best know that I really am quite shy. Also, it doesn't help that my guy radar doesn't work very well.
Second, of course it doesn't make sense. If I made sense all the time, things wouldn't be as interesting as they are. The posts on this site tend to follow my ever-so-mild mood swings, or perhaps they showcase the fact that I'm sometimes a bit moody when I get home from work.
Also, damn stright I will be getting some of the profit. You know how much I like my crack Satan.
Yo Joe, stop trying to horn in on my racket.
I'm not talking piddly little digital stills cameras here. I'm talking of state-of-the-art digital film production equipment.
Actually, I was watching one of Loius Theroux's Doco's on the porn industry and the guy making the film was using my exact camera.
Probably means I should get a better camera.
