Lovely Friday

I had a lovely day, despite all the horrible rain. Who needs all this grey?
I got to hang out with the delightful HG. She introduced me to Squirly's, the Nutty Chocolatier, a great pastry place (the name of which I can't remember) where they make awesome pain au chocolat, and then to tequila bookworm where we talked way too loud about porn and how men learn things in there that just aren't hot (though I won't go into details). It was a great day and she is so fun to hang out with.
And then dinner tonight with Sari Olsen.
All in all a great day, filled with good friends and great insight into where I want my life to go right now.
I realize I still have some decisions to make and some issues to work through, but something about the past few days makes me feel significantly less weighted down. I feel a bit off the dude wagon and called him tonight. No answer. I left a message. Once I did that, I felt..I don't know...more in control. This isn't the first time I've felt this way. I get some kind of clarity about making an effort. I have no idea if he has found his phone. If he will get the message. I just know that something about making that call made it all over for me. Especially when he didn't call back. I just can't hold onto the idea of what that may have been if he was a different person. So I'm not.
As Craig David sings, I'm walking away :)
That's about it. Fun party last night. Ran into a guy I went on an ackward date with. He hung around chatting with me all day. I thought it was so funny because he pretty much blew me off. How could I not be flattered by the attention though.

So now I am off to look at international volunteer opportunities and figure out if that is something I'm brave enough to do for a year. I'm thinking of going to Africa to do it. Anyone out there want to act as tour guide for me (oh yes, this was for you young man you know who you are. Just a little off-the-cuff hello)?

I have a list of things I want to do. Resurrect GameDiva, make a documentary (anyone have any suggestions about how to get that done?), travel, pay off all my debt (anyone want to send me a few thousand dollars?) and then keep figuring out how to keep my life as happy as it has been.

I found some great old bob dylan lyrics today. But they aren't so happy, just lovely. But today is happy thoughts, to Robert Zimmerman will have to wait.

If men want to learn what's hot, they should probably watch romantic comedies instead of porn. However, what's interesting is that if women want to learn what's hot, they could do with watching some porn. I think somewhere in there, between those two genres, we can find a happy medium where everyone's happy.
