Ok, sorry, I didn't get to post anything last night... had a quick trip to Tuscaloosa! So, what has been going on with me??? Where do I begin? Umm... well we lost our manager at work, so I have to take the other set of "manager keys"... the only good thing about that, is I don't have to work with that assistant manager!! So basically work sucks more than ever now... but I will get through it.
Dustin left to go home today... THANK GOD!!!
I went to a Christmas party the other night, my "date" was an older guy that works for one of the radio stations up here. We are just friends, so I decided "what the heck, go have a good time." Well, I got a call from him a few hours ago... his boss(es) basically accused him of bringing an escort!! WTF?!?! ME?? Seriously?? Long story short, they said it looked that way b/c he could never get someone like me (their words.."young and good-looking") to date him!! OK, I admit, I laughed when he told me this... but I am sure HE didn't. Oh well... what can I say?
FINALLY!!! All my Christmas shopping is D-O-N-E!!! Now, time to sit back, relax, then get up and start wrapping!! Haha!
I know there is alot more I could get into, but right now... I cant. But, let's just say, things are going good for me... and I will update you when I can! ;)

Date like a MAN, so you don't get played like a ...
Ok, so as I said before I am kinda, sorta, dating this guy Dustin. Yeah its great cuz he is leaving in January and we can't get attached and all emotional. Well one slight change in those plans, maybe two.
I was sitting in his hotel room the Monday night and some how the word "feelings" came up. He asked if if I am still ok with "casual dating." I look at him with all honesty and say, "I can date like a man... no feelings, no commitment." He laughs and everything is cool. A little while later he goes to take the trash out, and Jeremy, his friend, says that he is so glad to be back in town. (They went to Ohio for Thanksgiving.)
"Really? Why? This town is dead."
"Because I swear if I heard your name one more time over the weekend I was gonna go insane!"
Huh?? Casual dating, right?? Well when I went to leave Monday night, Dustin gave me a big hug and said that he was glad he was back and that he missed me. Ok, then. Why do I not see this turning out like I thought it would?
So Tuesday night I head out that way (because seriously there is NOTHING to do in this town.) Well Dustin tells me that instead of them leaving in January, they are only gonna be here for about 3 more weeks, their job they are doing is having lay offs or something. He just found out today, and he didn't wanna tell me unless he knew for sure.
"Oh, ok." I reply.
"Well we should be back in about 4 months or so."
I nod, still watching TV.
"Do you not have anything to say?" he asks.
Really?! What do I say? This is casual, or supposed to be. I look at him and say, "What should I say?" Jokingly I almost say -"Don't go!"
"I don't know. That you are gonna miss me and we need to keep in touch until then."
"Ok, I'll miss you, stay in touch." Good enough? Guess not, he mopes and is acting really weird. HELLO!! This was agreed upon before our first "date." You are only here for a short while, we don't get serious, we don't expect anything outta the other, this is NOT a relationship. How come no one can follow these rules? Well, we will see how things play out...
So, today is my birthday. I have been putting bets on who would call, who would forget and who would be the first to call me. I lost that last one!! At 3:45 this morning my cell phone goes off... it's Adam. Now, we dated really briefly, and then we just never could get on the same page as far as timing.
Well he is slightly intoxicated. He thinks this is a good opportunity to tell me exactly how he feels about me. You know the saying, "a drunk man's words are a sober man's thoughts"? He says that he really wants to be with me, he could see himself with me long term, and all that. Surprisingly, it's nice to hear. I remind him of the distance between us and that it's not fair to either of us to try this... long distance relationships never work out. Then he says the sweetest thing (which would normally send me running for the hills) "I will wait for you. You will see, we will be together."
So I start thinking today --what's wrong with him? NOT like that! Just what has been holding me back from dating him? Other than I was dating Matt before and now I moved away, there is nothing. So?? I do have a chance to maybe go back to Tuscaloosa with my job... do I take it? Now I moved up here for a guy (big mistake) but if I move back, well it's not because of him - that's where my family is. Do I even think about it? Should I try? I need to ponder this one a little more...
