One of the best feelings in the world is knowing that someone out there is going to sleep thinking about you. Now about that date… It’s with another guy from back home. Zack. Zack has been making me smile for awhile now. And lately the smiling has increased in frequency. So when he asked if [...]

Guys piss me off when… They allow a girl to think they might be into her without telling her that they are unavailable. The girl then finds that fact out in some other way and feels like a damn fool. They aren’t upfront about their expectations when a group lunch gets cancelled and they ask [...]
I want the romance of life.

I want long walks by a lake at sunset. I want to travel to places where the streets are cobblestone. I want to fall in love so entirely that I can never go back. I want to feel butterflies with every single kiss. I want to drive fast down a country road with the top [...]
Once upon a time…

For a brief period in time, I fancied Alvin to be the one who would make me happy for the rest of my life. It wasn’t fair of me to do that to either of us. But do you know why I did that? It’s not because I am a heartless bitch. It’s not because [...]

I had a dream last night. In it, the EX was breaking up with me again in the same cold, callous manner he used over a year ago. My alarm clock woke me up in the middle of it. And I was so upset that is ended. I even cried a little. I wanted to [...]
An off day.

I hate just joining the bandwagon like this, but I’m feeling kind of meh today. I used to have these days all the time. But now that I’m happy most of the time, this day is a sharp contrast in my life. Just because I like being different though, I will say that I don’t [...]
I don’t want my life to change.

I had a good weekend. How about you guys? Alvin came to visit, and it was fun. We went out for Chicago’s finest deep dish pizza on Saturday night, drank plenty, and didn’t sleep a wink. Don’t get the wrong idea. It was all very innocent, I swear. I’m a slooooow mover when it comes [...]
Friendship requires effort.

Love is about making sacrifices. It’s about putting someone else’s happiness before your own. I’ve got that down pat. Friendship requires effort. It’s a two way street where again you may have to make sacrifices. I’m not so good at this one. In the past few months, I have come to recognize that I am [...]
I challenge you to make your own fun.

You make your own fun. Or maybe you don’t. But I do. Tuesday night at the kickoff meeting, we had casino night. Yes, I know the Office episode just crossed your mind. It did for me too. Anyway, several times during the day I got this: “Are you going to the casino thing tonight? It [...]
I got that hug.

I don’t even know where to start. I only took about two days off from blogging, but I feel so disoriented. It’ll take me a little bit to catch up on all my fave blogs. I’m also struggling with what to write today. How about I just tell you where I’ve been? For the past [...]
