My blogs graph

This is what my blog looks like as a graph. You can make any website into a graph.

I think they are really pretty and would make fun stationary.

NEWS FLASH: Guys are insecure, too

After a 12 hours day at work, a co-worker and I went out for a couple of beers. We were sitting at the corner of the bar, by default we could hear the two twenty-something guy's conversation that were facing us on the other side of the corner of the bar. It goes a little something like this:

It was just two guys out for a few drinks and they were discussing girls. Not in a disrespectful way, but analyzing the beginning of the relationship and disclosing insecurities that the guy didn't think he was good enough for the girl. He was afraid that he liked the girl more than she liked him and his fear of being rejected by her.

It was refreshing to hear attractive men over analyzing girls much the same way that girls talk about guys.

A day off of work is a day spent in the kitchen

I've really enjoyed a lazy Sunday puttering around the apartment and spending time in the kitchen. I layed around all morning being lazy then headed out to the grocery store to pick up somethings to make meals for the week.

It's my new thing. I use one of my days off a week in the kitchen and make a couple of bigger batches of things so that I can eat off of them all week and not have to do so much cooking later. Today I made a 9x13 of eggplant parmigiana and a crock pot full of chicken taco soup(I have Josh to thank for the recipe on that one). I used some left over eggplant to make a home made chunky tomato and eggplant pasta sauce. Looks like I'll be eating good all week. I am also very pumped about the pita and hummus I bought. Yummm!

I think I am going to snuggle up on the couch and peruse some magazines that I just have had time to ready lately.

Neither here nor there

--I have officially updated to Blogger Beta, which I am loving so far. I am considering customizing my blog's layout a little more when I have some time. Don't be surprised if you visit my blog one day and it looks a little different.

--After being stood up by Guy #4 last night, one of my co-workers called to see if I wanted to hang out with her, her boyfriend and another co-worker. All being very fun people, I accepted the invitation. We headed over to Union Park, a bar and eatery that I have been wanting to try. The place was pretty dead, but we had a good time. We did a lot of discussing and planning of the work Christmas party. The co-worker and her boyfriend hosted it last year and everyone had a blast. Keno(the boyfriend) is all about going all out and suggested several themes. One he really wants is for everyone to wear something holiday themed. He also suggested a dress code of men wearing blazers or sport coats and the females have to wear head bands. Wearing your worst Christmas print or holiday pattern sweater was also thrown out there.

Yet another YOY update

So, Guy #4 had called and asked me to go out for a drink. I responded to the affirmative for this evening. As of 8:00pm, he had not called to verify or confirm or inform me of a time or place. A co-worked called and invited me to meet up. At 9pm Guy #4 called...I didn't answer because I was unsure of my answer due to late call time. Guy #4 left a message to call him back...called him back...he didn't answer. Forty-five minutes later and no response back from him...dude, you snooze, you lose.

Social retardation...not ok.

Forget it, I am going out with the girls. I see years of therapy in his future.

Another YOY update

So, in my last YOY update there were scenarios of 4 guys. Everyone was cheering for guy #4, but I had to later update you that I had not heard from him. Well, shortly after I posted, he called and apologized that he had been out of town. We have been in touch of the past 3 weeks, but never able to meet up.

So making an attempt to be ballsy, I asked him if he wanted to go for a drink the other night(Sunday). He said he needed to finish up some stuff then would call me back. I still haven't heard from him.

I am very confused by this male behavior. I have written him off as socially retarded, seriously.

Edit/Update: Guy #4 left me a voicemail today asking if I would like to go out for a drink. Wasn't that my idea on Sunday? He always seems to call right after I post on my blog...maybe he is stalking me. ;-)

Playing with my cuddly pets.

R.I.P.

Sadly, one of my cockroaches has gone to cockroach Heavan. Only two remain. With a life span of 2-3 years, I feel I will be losing the other two soon as the end of thier life span is quickly approaching, however, some live up to 5 years.

Mel sent me a link to an article about the 10 creepiest pets to own and my Madagascar hissing cockroaches made it to #2 on the list. Way to go boys!
