Distracted



Her: Home on a Friday? Want some company?
Me: (pause) I'm...I don't think that's a good idea.

Stayed in on Friday; just tired and irritated. Saturday morning, saw PCD for brunch. We ended up cooking and I made a frittata. Since she was a pro, I was flattered that she thought it was good. Went off to class and got a beatdown. I'm quite literally COVERED with bruises (do not click if squeamish). Should take up yoga. Or at least something that doesn't involve people stabbing, slashing, kicking, choking, strangling and punching me. Yes. Yoga.

Spoke to Heartgirl afterward. She confided in me something and I was a bit touched. We're more alike than she knows.

Saturday, LisaV invites me to a house party downtown. It's a literal and figurative sweatbox. An hour in, a girl grabs me and sticks a huge bottle of tequila down my throat and, later, kisses me on the cheek - of course she's 22. Before I leave, another girl leans in and kisses me too. Huh. Must be the tequila. Close out the night with this cool blonde that boxes and threw me a nasty uppercut. Impressive.

Note to self: Hang out with LisaV more often.

At 2:00, walk LisaV home across the LES. Woulda been terribly romantic if she wasn't seeing someone and I wasn't...so damn distracted.

Him: You didn't get anyone's number? Did you even ask?
Me: No...I'm very distracted.
Him: Dude, you gotta fix that.


Music: Once again I found myself with my friends

why is it you choose to be single? I haven't really read, if at all you posted why, but i'm curious.

Good question: http://logan607.livejournal.com/94166.html

I don't want to be single; I wish I weren't. But I've many people close to me that have already been through terrible divorces and I've had some seriously bad breakups. I don't want to extend myself until I'm sure that there's something there. Y'know?

OK I remember reading that!
That understandable. I just thought you enjoyed being single and didn't want to be in a relationship.

There's always an underlining of doubt in relationships even with those people who say they "choose" to be single. I mean, if they never have been in a relationship or seen others in one that didn't work out, then that's a valid reason to "choose" the single life. But the majority, if not all, of us have been in a relationship that didn't work out and know people who have in similar situations so it just seems like there's no hope. Then you see people who've been married for like 30+ years and hope sort of rises it head.

*sigh*

Anyhow, thanks for clarifying!

Yoga's good for increasing one's ability to be bendy too ;).

Must be the tequila.
Really? It seems like you attract just as many girls when it's rum.

Awwww, thanks for the compliment.

And yes, yoga is good for the bendy. And we like the bendy...

Parties I'm great at. It's life that I'm still struggling with.

Yoga is good . . . but you don't get to stab, choke, hit, slash, kick, or strangle anyone.

I've had similiar bruise patterns. Just avert your eyes, sniffle, and tell people you ran into a door. =P

The fact of the matter is that I'm *already* really clumsy - that'll just make people think that I truly am a danger to myself.

Which I may well be...

Once I actually did get a really nasty bruise from walking into a door. No one believed me. It was awesome.
