Showing posts with the label keep it classy

It's been awhile...

Summer happened and this blog certainly didn't... School starts tomorrow and things are starting to fall (haha, pun not intended) into our normal routine of organized chaos. I'm stressed but it always turns out okay in the end. This summer consisted of family and friends with a handful of dates sprinkled in the middle. I have to admit by the end of July I had pretty much just given up on the dating scene of life. If I had one more guy tell me I spend too much time with my kid I was going to seriously loose my mind, probably on whoever that unsuspecting guy was. We are a package deal, take it or leave it - end of story. I spent some time being single, hanging out with some amazing drama free friends. I think it's the most fun I've had going out in a long time. We played pool at the local dive bar and hit the casino for some dancing. There were definitely some antics going on which was just good fun. By mid July I had gotten to the point where I was happy being sing...

Anyway, Never Ending Pasta and I were supposed to go to the local hockey team game. They're in the playoffs and I got seats on the glass to have an amazing view of the game. The deal was I'd get the tickets and he'd get dinner before the game. I texted about midday, called in the early afternoon. No response. He ghosted me, never called or texted back. I went to the game, had a couple drinks (thought I was SUPER COOL drinking beer with a straw) with my amazi...

The Sundial

My favorite dating site is Plenty of Fish. It's free and entertaining. The message of the morning was a local-ish guy who decided that he needed to tell me that while looking at my pictures it made his personal sundial tell him it was noon. Now this took me a moment to comprehend... why would his personal sundial.. OHHHH, that's what he meant. Entertaining and inventive, yes, welcomed information, NO. Who the heck says things like that? I've gotten more adult pictures and too much information emails to last me the rest of my life and honestly probably the lives of everyone reading this too. Men, reasonable females don't want your adult picture, they don't want to know your bodily reaction to my picture, or what you would do to me if I was there, we don't want to know the details of your last encounter with a woman either. There has to be some women who encourage this behavior out there because it just keeps happening, however lets try keeping it classy ...
