I am wicked tired of being poor. Excuse that slip back into the nostalgia of my childhood in New England.
Seriously though, I am.
I need to get cracking. I'm trying, there is no doubt. Just not hard enough. Now I am having trouble with focus because in my free time, my thoughts often drift and I spend time reflecting on my new *ahem* situation and how I managed it all. Everything is good and I'm actually really fulfilled emotionally for the first time, perhaps ever, so I guess using that as an excuse is no longer an option.
What else can I say right now. Nothing, I guess, so, signing off...

Waiting
I'm waiting for my date to arrive. Sounds weird after so long.
But really, I got ready for this, nothing special, but I realize just how much work this shit takes.
Showering, I mean really showering, not one of those in and out kind of things. You just can't be crusty when you're dating. And it's not even like I ever really am crusty, but you have to take extra care.
You can't have crazy toenails or rough feet. You have to clean behind your ears, floss, handle all of those cracks and crevices, all of that. Again, not that I don't normally, but it matters when you're interacting with others and not just someone you want to, well, you know...
Anyway, it's crazy. I forgot after all of these years being unfulfilled/with one person that it's exciting and takes work.
More importantly, I am learning that there are normal people out there. That is to say, sociopaths are not the norm.
But now, I have to run, because I forgot to floss...

Oooh And I Like It...
I met a man.
I met him awhile ago very briefly, in passing, actually, at the a place where I worked. We ran into each other recently... He is Nigerian and has the deepest voice I think I've ever heard, and I love that. Anyway, although I generally try to avoid Nigerians, (I'll just say CRAY-ZAY and leave it at that), he is quite interesting. I suppose his being hot and chocolate-y has something to do with it too.
Anyway, when he talks I get tingly, literally. I'm going to have to look that up, I mean, attraction, deep voices...there is definitely no shortage of testosterone in his world.
This could be trouble, the voice alone could have me walking that stroll if I'm not careful.
