So what is everyone up to this weekend? Any new dates?

Saturday I have a Komen 5k in the morning, than have to go to work. After that though I am going Halloween costume shopping wiht a couple friends. I have no idea what I want to be. Something attractive but not slutty. No naughty nurses or cops. The only thing I can think of is Velma from Scooby Doo or a nerdy girl, short skits and knee highs are always cute right. If you have any suggestions please let me know.

Sunday I am supposed to play softball for our first playoff game but we will probably only have the minimum 7 players, in which we will get our @ss's kicked. So if we only have the 7 players I am going to skip it because I really don't want to go and get mercy ruled in two innings. 7 vs 10 softball games are just not fun. If I skip it I can tailgate before the Panther vs Seahawks game. I am a fan of neither but my friend is from Seattle so she is a huge Seahawk fan. If I go to the softball game I will be getting to the football game right before it starts.

    TGIF. Multiple times over.

    I'm going to an 'Affordable Art' event with friends tonight (not that the art is likely to be 'affordable' from my perspective, but it should be fun anyway - it's under an old railway arch in Holborn, and the friends are fun. There may also be a nice single chap in the group - you never know:wink:).

    Tomorrow is mostly errands and visiting old ladies in hospital, but I may be meeting a friend for afternoon tea, which would be pleasant.

    Sunday I'm not sure about - I was invited to a supper/reeling-practice thing, but the host hasn't told me what time or if it's going ahead, so who knows. If it's a lovely day, I'm thinking a long walk in London's parks to see the changing leaves - it's gorgeous at this time of year.

    Edited for overuse of the word 'nice'!

    Friday - Work
    Saturday - Work and Gym
    Sunday - work and gym
    Monday holiday Hiking!

    I have a "hike outing" with a couple of friends on Monday. Though it is with 2 girls, I don't think of it as a date >.> besides last time I checked both girls were taken. Normally it wouldn't happen since they work. However since this Monday is a holiday, yay! I still work Monday night/morning myself but it's my Friday of my work week. I'll get off at 7am and head across the water to meet up with them and go hiking! I hope I won't be too tired and fall off another damn cliff again (¬ , ¬.)

    For once I have big plans! I am at the New Orleans airport about to board my flight to Houston where I'll hang out with my team till our Tough Mudder in Austin on Saturday at 11:45! I am so frickin stoked! Of course after the Mudder there will be lots of drinking! Had some alcohol last night for the first time in a month and was very open with Steve about everything I've been feeling so that's good. And he said he would miss me while I'm gone. Progress!

    Well I hope everyone has an awesome weekend. I know I will!!!! :bigsmile:

    Out for a friend's 43rd b-day tonight. A local brewery with food trucks that are having "burger wars" and a hole in the wall bar that boasts it's 200 kinds of beer.

    Tomorrow - moving the rest of the man's belongings in to the apartment. He's living with me temporarily until his new apartment is ready in mid-November. We are trying not to kill each other...

    Sunday - Football. Steelers vs. Eagles and the Steelers defense is finally healthy. Looking forward to seeing Vick on his *kitten* most of the game!

    I have a date on Saturday night with a guy I met on OKC. Hopefully it goes well! I am just enjoying being back on the dating scene again, really.

    I had a Skype date last night. I havent had a Skype date since about 2008 so it was weird. Especially when I saw my profile picture on Skype, Geez I still had long red hair. Anyway...

    There's this guy who really likes me and... while I really really dont think i can or want to handle anyone new, I do have a major surplus of love that's backing up all the rest of my emotions and vital systems, as well as I really need to get nailed to the mattress so I can breathe again as soon as possible. Anyway - this guy- first of all I thought for awhile that he was 31, turns out he's 26, so Im like... fml, you were like... fifth or sixth grade when I was a senior. However, he's an established international corporate lawyer that graduated early from Stanford and he says this makes up for the age difference. I dont know, I kind feel like he might be way more older and more serious than I am.

    Anyone who's spent time with me in person knows... Im pretty much an effing child :(

    But he's a six foot three, super strong, charming, cocky, gorgeous, heavy lifting giant that wears glasss sometimes that really likes me, so I made him a little badge that says, Hi My name is Rebound, but Im ambitious. Shrug, he chuckled at the challenge, but whatever.

    So he's in Rome right now and wont be back for a couple weeks, so I actually got my *kitten* on Skype last night and endured that exposed vulnerable hour where you just feel like yorue totally on display and you know when he's quiet its cause he's staring at you and you want to crawl under the blankets.

    Im lucky he wont be back for awhile so i dont have to be stressed, but when he gets back we're going to ComicCon NY and then we'll see.

    He's a rebound. My emotions are all scrambled and he knows it, but he really likes me so he doesnt care about the circumstances and he's been patient as hell. And he sends me pictures of his abs, which is nice, cause I miss getting pictures in the morning. He's not mine, he's not keeping me from feeling lopsided, but he's an excellent crutch and he relaxed about the 'be my girlfriend' part.

    So anyway, its all feels a bit 'through the looking glass'.

    Cripes - if you decide you don't want him after all, send him my way? I've got to go to Italy in a couple of weeks anyway :laugh: Seriously, though - he sounds like he might be worth the effort! :happy:

    Happy Friday everyone. :)

    I have a date for tonight - a girl I've seen a few times made plans to cook me dinner and go to an art show near her place. I am going to cancel on her. I feel bad about it, but I've lost interest and don't want to lead her along.

    I'm not sure what else will be going on. Probably take Blue somewhere where she can smell things and look for squirrels. She's a cheap date.

    Good luck everyone!

    If she is making dinner for you please break it off before lunch if you can. She has to do prep work for the dinner so probably would like to know as soon as possible if she doesn't have to do it and can make other plans for the night.

    I know, I'm a crappy person for pushing it this late. I was debating whether I should continue to date her and have a good time or cut it off before it gets serious. I wanted to make myself just have fun and enjoy it but I couldn't get into that mindset. Fortunately, she is working until 5:30 PM tonight and specific dinner has not been planned so I am not wasting any kitchen work.

    Well, if she's like me she probably did prep work last night (or at least bought the food already). If I was you, I'd just go, eat have a good time. Then not see her again. Don't make plans that evening, don't even allude to wanting to see her again. Thank her for dinner and leave. Then send a nice e-mail telling her you appreciate all that she did but you aren't interested in anything further. Honestly, I think I'd be more p'd if you cancelled on me a few hours before than came, ate and then told me you weren't interested.

    I just cancelled. If I went tonight, the assumption would be that there would be a romantic evening and it just felt wrong. Thanks for the suggestion, though. :/

    Tomorrow I'm taking the non-boyfriend boyfriend on a surprise trip to San Francisco for Fleet Week. They have an airshow and he had mentioned he likes going to them. His birthday was this past Monday so this is his present. It's the first time ever that I've planned a surprise for someone. It's neat to see him SO excited.

    Ah, I didn't realize it was at that "place". You did the right thing. Enjoy your time with Blue.

    TGIF, but I have a cold so that sucks. Tonight, I am meeting bf for dinner depending on how I feel, and if not feeling up to it, he said he would come keep me company for a little while (won't be late since he has to be home at some point since his daughter will be with him for the weekend). Then tomorrow take nieces to gymnastics, then have bday party for stepdad tomorrow night--he wanted low key so will only be him, my mom, my cousin and my aunt and uncle and me and my bf so will be early night. Then Sunday bf, his daughter and her bf were all supposed to take ride to VT to Mt. Snow to check out foliage, etc, but since it is supposed to rain, we are "going to find something else to do".

    Happy Weekend to all!

    Love the dates and all the active things going on here with the peeps!

    Yoovie, you made me chuckle. I facetimed with a fella the other night and I was a giggling mess the whole time. I hate the fact that I'm huge on his screen and I felt on "display". Anywho..

    Tonight I have a date with Stunt Man. We'll be doing sushi. :bigsmile:

    Tomorrow I'll probably just hang out with the family. There's a beer fest going on but I don't have any beer drinking buddies. Boo.

    Sunday, probably just rest.
