So it's a rainy Saturday right now :) I'm listening to some new age music throughout the house doing my well overdue laundry and cleaning the house... I feel very content right now. Sure, it doesn't sound all that exciting, but sometimes it's just nice to breathe deeply and revel in the wonder that is existance.

I think too often we don't take time to enjoy the "now". It's kind of a luxury. I was sitting on the couch listening to the rain fall and my dog snoring under her blanket and just smiled.

Life is dramatic enough. I even had some very unexpected Drama wind it's way to me. I can't really talk much about it, except for the fact that it put things in a pretty clear perspective about certain people that I have crossed paths with.

Last night was fun (as usual) at the Heretic. Met up with a co-worker and some of his friends. Even met someone that asked me out (which is always a bonus). Tonight, am going to dinner with S and M and after that? Probably nothing unless I get another "gotta get out of the house" bug :)

But I am looking forward to my date with J tomorrow. I need to call him after I finish this journal entry to try and get an actual "schedule of events" pinned down.

I did see W out last night and he didn't really say a word to me. I really hope that those of you reading this take a clue and PLEASE, don't accept a second date or even say "I'd like to go out again" if you don't plan on pursuing it. It's MUCH worse than saying, "I had a great time, and though you're a lot of fun, I don't think you're right for me".

So I assume silence is that sentence for now. Perhaps I'm reading more into it than is there, but I believe I'm right :) And if W ever reads this, then perhaps I was wrong about my first impression of him. I figured he was a better person than to leave me hanging. Eh...welcome the the world, huh? :) It's full of disappointments...however...as long as you're not disappointed in yourself...we'll all be fine.

And I am happy with me :)
