Mom, you'd better change that attitude if you want this three-way to happen!

So, I'm back again.  I'm sure I'll disappear for awhile after that, but this is a good emotional dump-spot.

So, I posted this on Facebook, but I just went back through some old messages and saw that this girl a friend of my tried to set me up with on a blind date was smoking hot.  I mean, to my eyes, she was amazing.  Unfortunately, this was around that unfortunate time (winter of 2005/6, I believe) that this other really hot girl agreed to go out with me, then called our date off half-way through.

So, that got me fuming about my shitty luck in dating.  I know I could put myself out there more, but every time I try, I fail.  Just recently I asked a girl out, and she actually said yes!  I was thrilled!  I call her the next day to try and schedule drinks, and I get her voice-mail.  She never calls me back.  What the hell?  Part of me was afraid that she hadn't got my message, but I know that couldn't be the case, because I left it on her machine, and all voice-mail works basically the same way.  Maybe I should have called a second time, but I'm desperate, not pathetic.

I won't go on too long with everything.  Needless to say, my singleness has been bothering me more and more, but I can't really do anything about it now.  I have four months before I leave this state forever, so I can't really start a relationship (as if trying would make a difference), and I'm not the "love 'em and leave 'em" sort, so I guess I just have to tough it out.  That's my bit, for now.  See you again in a few months!

Oh shit, the cops!

Yeah, it's been awhile since I've posted.  Facebook takes care of most of my stuff.  I've been panicking about GRE and grad school, but that's beginning to wind down; with some luck, I'll have my applications completely out the door in two weeks.  My GRE scores came back and were pretty good, so I'm sitting pretty right now.

Not much to say, just procrastinating on my reading for Greek Religion.  Yup...
