Two shot glasses and a bottle of tequila with nothing but time on my hands



So it's been forever since I've had time to write anything on here! Let me tell you a little bit about my life so it puts into perspective how busy a single girl in a smallish town can be!

1-I have a job that is semi-political and sometimes takes more time than it should. I work from 8-5 and never take a lunch. After work many times I have social events that I have to attend in order to keep up with everyone else on a business standpoint.

2-I am a member of a community based club. I am on the board and generally have about 8 nights a month that I have meetings that might last about three hours each.

3-I try to see my friends. I don't like to be alone because it gives me too much time to think so if I'm not working or doing community work I try to be with people.

4-I work out. Sometimes at the gym sometimes just running in town. You'd be surprised at how much time that can take up if you really get into it!

5-My niece takes a lot of time. I love her and try to spend at least one evening a week with her.

6-Since getting the BlackBerry about three weeks ago I am ALWAYS connected. I love it but wonder sometimes!

Now that you know that let's move on.

A lot has changed in the past two weeks. I don't know how, why, or if I even like it but it has. I've learned who the people are who are there for you, I've learned that sometimes honesty is the best policy even if it hurts people, and that you should always say what you think because if you don't it WILL come back to bit you in the ass.

So, I'm dealing with all of that right now. But on top of that, last night I stayed in my home town and decided to meet up with an old friend and go to the High School football game. Well, she was coming in from out of town so while I was waiting on her I was invited to a tailgate at a friend from work's house.

I get there and go in. Interesting. One of the people there used to be an old instructor of mine and she was sitting next to this cop. Well, come to find out my friend was trying to set up the old instructor and the cop. Haha, well he ended up talking to me more than he did her! Well, dinner is over and time for the game.

I meet my friend, Brooke, and we head in. Let me just tell ya, it is so much fun to go back to a game. RIIIGHT. So I see several people that I know from work, a few from school, and we just generally hang out and talk. Well, we decide to visit with friends and their three kids down next to the fence line. There are huge Leyland Cypress trees down there, now mind you they were not there when we were and we are not that old, so the cops were down there keeping the kids out. The cute one, who I talked to earlier, came over and was like. I told you to stay out of there! We joked, flirted and laughed. Well my work friend comes over later and is like, they tell me you are causing a ruckus down here in the trees. I laughed and looked over at the cop, well--it's his fault he keeps busting me! You should just give me the keys to your house and then at least I would be in private. I thought she was going to bust a lung! :) It was rather good if I do say so myself. So he laughed and thought I was funny... so we will see if anything comes from that. Most likely not, but I am going to make sure to ask her about him next week.

He isn't like OMG hot, it's not like the first time I met someone else... but ya know--it is time to move on and what if it is only a few dates. At least it is something and not trying to avoid the issues.

Speaking of issues, I can't get Don Juan out my mind. I want to know that he's okay. That I still have a friend. Maybe I'm being stubborn by not calling/texting him but I really think it is his move.

So I'm fixing to head out with some of the friends I met up with last night to dinner and a haunted house. Should be interesting. Might even have to admit to my drunken dialing of our mutual friend who I will call L. See what they think of that one. Not sure if this is a girls night or if it is a joint thing--we should see. Nothing would make me happier than for him to be there too!

I swear I can be by myself, I've done it for forever but I need someone to help complete something in my life.
