Life is Funny

Wow...so after that nice vent about S6C I was, once again, ready to throw in the towel. Then, during lunch, I got a text from the bartender. Now, I knew he had a girfriend, we talked about that the other night. He told me that she was interested in a 3some but didn't know of anyone to join in, so of course, I was nice enough to offer my services (thus the number exchange). Well... he texted me letting me know that she dumped him. I felt horrible about it, thinking that I was partially to blame, but he said it was entirely his fault. That it obviously wasn't meant to be and if he was really digging her then he never would have flirted with me. He was just frustrated that she was I guess accusing him of cheating and he said he never has, and this is the first time he's been accused of that. But whatever. So... assuming I can get a sitter, we're going out on Sunday. :)

In addition to that, my good friend, the DJ, asked me to call him (this is after poking fun at me via my FB wall about me being a FB junkie). Turns out he has tickets to this pool party tonight for the Marlins game, but he needs to bring girls with him and he wanted me to be the girl. I so want to, but the thing is that I'd have to be at the stadium by 7, and I can't drop Lo off with the sitter until 8. Maybe my sister would be nice enough to drop her off for me, but I doubt it.

So interesting turn of events at lunch. Went from being super pissed and annoyed by guys to not being able to get this cheesy ass smile off of my face. Makes me wonder what could happen next. =)

What the Frickin Frick?!?

Oh...my...GOD!!! Here is my luck with guys; I either have a great guy in my life that suddenly decides to cease communication...or I have a not so great guy that wants to be all clingy and relationshipy super fast. Why can't I seem to find a good balance of the two?

This new dude surpassed the Stage 5 Clinger status...he's at Stage 6, so I'll call him S6C. He's a friend of a friend. She thought we'd be good together - and although he's totally not my type (he's like a 36 year old ginger, skin-headed redneck type guy), I figured I'd go ahead and give it a shot since going after my type of guys hasn't really worked for me. So met the dude on Sunday - went out on a boat with him & my friend. He seemed nice enough. Anyway...then things get to be a bit much. Little things like him pestering me to stop by, just for a quick second, just for one kiss. Then him telling me he wants to be there for me "always" and that he "sees good things for us in the future". This was like day 3 of knowing him.

Then, on Wednesday, I had the day off so went to TGIFridays for some food and a drink or two. The bartender was soooo freaking cute! Flirted with him for a couple of hours...got the digits and whatnot, it was nice. Anyway, apparently S6C was pissy and around 6:30 bitched to my friend that I was still sitting at the bar instead of seeing him - little did he know I'd been talking to her so she was able to fill him in on the fact that at that point I was passed out in bed - Long Island Ice Teas are not my friend.

Thursday he was all upset because I didn't call or text him on Wednesday. I explained to him that I was dealing with some things, and one of them was finally being able to talk to the Producer and getting some closure. Then he got all pissy like, if that happened back in May, why do you need to talk to him now? Um...because I was able to. He wanted to see me that night but I had other plans, then he was texting me later that night to make sure I was actually doing what I said I was doing.

So Friday morning (today) rolls around and I get a text from my friend. She tells me that S6C is ready to throw in the towel because I'm not paying enough attention to him and he's impatient and whatnot. I'm thinking - sweet, no problem there. Then he texts me that he wants me to call him after work to talk about things. What the hell dude? Really, this much drama from a guy that I haven't even known a week? So I told him what my friend told me and he totally goes the other way, being all like - I never said that, and whatnot. Actually, here's what he said...

"no im not any of that im very patient I have been and always will be..don't. Care if you can't go out but the one thing im confused with is if you remotely interested in me all I ask is a text once in a while just to show me that you are...I know your situation i want to be here to help or do what it takes to make you happy and as you know im nothing like anyone you dated before I don't care if I don't see you everyday I only want a sign that you are still interested in me if you are at all im not mad at all just want a kiss that I've been waiting for since Wednesday lol don't be upset with me please"

First off... when did proper punctuation go out of style? Drives me insane! Second - he said the exact opposite to my friend. Come on dude... can't bullshit a bullshitter. And never... EVER tell me that you're nothing like the other guys in my life because I've heard that line so many times it just pisses me off. And that's exactly what it is...just a lame ass line to try to get the girl. Doesn't work for me.

Anyway, I told him that and he said he doesn't want me running anywhere but towards him and how we'd be so happy together and whatnot. Yeah, it might sound sweet to some people, but everything all rolled into one... it's a little much considering we JUST met! Too much drama! So I told him that much and he got all pissy. What the fuck ever. Honestly - I'd much rather be semi-ignored by hottie Producer than smothered by weird S6C.

Never letting my friends set me up with guys again!

When Voicemail-to-Text goes bad…

I had a trial for VM-to-Text, and I got some funny transcriptions that weren’t even close to what the voicemail said. So here are some of my favorites, everything is exactly like the messages I got – punctuation and all. Enjoy:

“Hey honey, I wonder if you’re going to club house right now, go look on as long while looking well thing combi somebody tell you I said was 5825 if you try to call Shafer what I could really use it right now, someone call need an endless lappy please come by after class. Oh look at the office. I was disconnected at all. Whenever you can. I’ll just be like I said I really need you right now, what, right. I love you, Ohio, but thank you. I go. Bye.”

“Yay say oh just cute. I got some good news thing. So just so keep out for me. I shan’t. Bye. He.”

“Hey, sorry to be a booklet really important alright girl. I give you a call of this is me, what’s up with you somewhere. I we’re.”

And finally…..

“Buyers not classroom work. Calling the check on you. I saw your Facebook and twitter status make sure you’re OK. Let me know. See anything back.”

I think technology failed me on these, because I couldn’t really decipher what the heck anyone was saying so I needed to listen to the VM anyway….so…. VM-to-Text FAIL! At least it was funny to read. 

what the hell?

I seriously have to sit back sometimes and just think to myself… “self… what the hell is wrong with you?!?” I mean, honestly I don’t get myself. I wish I could be cold and heartless sometimes, but that’s just not me. I’m just such a lovey person. Normally I’d say, unless you cross me, but to be completely honest, I just cannot hold a grudge. I mean, there’s this one guy that played me hardcore. I mean, he was good. I found out that he lied about his relationship status and it pissed me off. I mean, I really digged this guy. Looks, yeah, he’s good looking, but more than that was his personality. We used to talk all the time about everything. Just felt this awesome connection. The azzhat even had the audacity to talk to me about my daughter, inviting her out to dinner one time. He told me he couldn’t wait for me to meet his dad and friends, and when I mentioned to him that my friends keep saying that I need to find myself a good man, he said that I’d found one already (him). I mean… the fuck? Why the hell would someone say that knowing that they have a girlfriend? That’s just unnecessarily cruel. I called him out on it, via text because I probably would have chickened out over the phone, and here’s a shocker, he hasn’t replied. It’s like I was nothing but a fucking game to him. I just don’t understand the thought process behind the things that people do. He’s a sadistic bastard; likes to hurt girls emotionally. I guess at the end of the day I got lucky though – heard from a friend of his that he treats his girlfriend like shit, yelling at her and talking down to her. It took me such a long time to get out of J’s control, the last thing I need is to end up in a situation where I’m mentally and emotionally abused again. And yet… I miss him. I just want him to tell me that it’s not true and that he actually cared, but I know that will never happen. I think I’m just lonely and needing someone to, not be with, but to be able to spoil and kinda take care of. See, people might not believe it, but I absolutely love giving massages and scratching someone’s head. Just doing whatever possible to make them comfortable and happy. I’m so weird. Anyway, I feel uber nauseous right now, like something really bad is about to happen. I don’t like this feeling. I want it to go away.

It's Time for Another VIDEO BLOG!!! Yay!!!

Just Dealing...

What through radiance that was once so bright, be now forever taken from my sight. Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass , of glory in the flower; we will grieve not, rather find strength in what remains behind. 
William Wadsworth

I kinda love how my venting on my blog really helps me to see things more clearly. I’m just frustrated right now at the lack of communication from some people. I’m ready to just walk away. I mean, granted, the guy is probably 100% worth the wait and worth all this frustration, but I just don’t feel like I deserve to be pushed aside like I’m nothing. I’m not a “back-burner” type girl. If you want me, if you actually care about me, then you’ll make time for me. It’s as easy as that. Lord knows that my life is incredibly hectic, but I always make time for the people I care about. Might have something to do with the fact that I’m not a cold and heartless bitch. Not saying that any of the guys I’m talking about are cold heartless bitches, just saying that I’m not one.

Anyway, roomie is out of town for a week – oh yeah, moved out a couple of months ago. I plan on spending this time just organizing everything. Hopefully I’ll be able to finish moving my stuff in. Looks like I’ll be doing that on my own since the person that said they’d help had been kinds absent. And this, my friends, is why I never depend on a guy for anything. It’s not worth the hassle and heartbreak when they blow you off.

This weekend is going to be pretty tough for me. On Saturday we are going to a service for one of our former co-workers that recently passed away. I worked closely with her for my first couple of years here. She was young, in her thirties, but she was very sick – cancer. Then on Sunday I’m going with my grandmother to the cemetery. Papa Al’s nameplate and everything should be put in by now so we’re going to pay our respects – he passed on May 19th of a heart attack. Grandma found him slumped over at home and the ambulance rushed him to the hospital. Mom and I got there right before the Dr called us all in to let us know he didn’t survive. It was so unbelievably hard to hear and I tried to stay strong for my grandmother, but still broke down. Lo and I went over there practically every weekend, spent so much time with him. Yesterday would have been his 82nd birthday. I took Lo over there last weekend and she walked into the house and first thing she asked – “Where’s Papa Al?”. So grandma and I had to explain to her again that he’s up in heaven. It sucks, I miss him. I gotta stop talking about it or I’m gonna start crying again.

There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness but of power. They are messengers of overwhelming grief and of unspeakable love.
Washington Irving
