Obsessions, opportunities and e-dating...


Wow - I'm not even sure what to say. Things have gotten stranger and stranger and I'm loving it!!

I really should be working on my econ homework but that makes me want to poke my eyes out with a stick. I HATE economics. Please understand, numbers are just so...baffling to me...I get it - well, some of it and I'm going to pass the class and I know I should be more interested and concerned but if I have to discuss the GDP one more time I'm gonna G-D explode....

So, my latest love is Grant-Lee Phillips. And his album Nineteeneighties combines my love of the 80s with my love of him. Its really quite an amazing album - and he's just so...sigh....There's something...sexy about him....musician with those dark brooding eyes...sigh...

Now for the juicier stuff - though, sadly, my life isn't terribly juicy yet - YET...Tonight I have my second date with M. I'm looking forward to it. He's 31, charming and funny and cute...and I feel like I've known him forever! Yeesh, I sound like I'm 16 again...but see after the losers I've been seeing (Nervous Breakdown guy - who I actually really liked, Wallygreens and Dog-Pee guy) M's a breath of fresh air - he's smart and funny and I would not be embarrassed to introduce him to my family (the true litmus test), so, we'll see where this goes. I'm not expecting anything and I won't be broken if it doesn't go anywhere but he tolerates (and is amused by) my drunken text messages where I refer to myself as the Princess - yeah, he's a pretty good guy - so I'll admit I'm hopeful!

The other scoop is the firing of my boss - which was a total and complete shock. While I will miss him terribly I have been given an amazing opportunity. I've basically been charged with running an entire product line for the company - I'm floored!! I'm scared. I'm nervous. BUT I AM SO FREAKING EXCITED!! I drank a whole bottle of wine last night just to calm down - I couldn't even get to work on my homework....sigh....

Anyway, that's really all I've got for now...I need more coffee to combat the mini-hangover I have going on right now...and then, econ. YUCK....

Over and over and over...

I'm having one of those days where I can only listen to one song repeatedly...sigh.. At least it's a good song today. Here it is, enjoy!
