Summer of Love, Indeed

Looks like my pheromones are working! Not only do I have a potential date with someone I met at the JBall, but an old college flame wrote me a letter the other day and wants to see me. Too weird. Let's hope it's also wonderful. Wouldn't mind some fun before heading to warmer climes. Then again, maybe I'll fall madly in love and move to Portland, ME!

I hope you get some face, homegirl.

Seriously. Now, all he has to do is write back to my email that was sent on Monday. I'm waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaitinggggggggggg. On an upnote, he checked out my jdate profile yesterday morning. :) Oh, and did I mention he's a dahk-tah?

Ooooh! Is he [url=http://swisscharts.com/showitem.asp?interpret=5000+Volts&titel=Doctor+Kiss%2DKiss&cat=s]Dr. Kiss Kiss[/url]?

Posted by Miriam on 2005-03-23 21:59:55 +0000
Let's hope so! I remember his kisses quite fondly. Okay, so he just wrote me back and said that he is looking forward to seeing me, but can't this weekend. What do I say?

Tell him he's forgiven [i]only[/i] if he'll amuse you on April Fool's Night (next Friday). You don't think he's secretly celebrating the forbidden holiday of Easter, do you? Is he inordinately fond of bunnies and hard-boiled eggs?

I'll be in Vegas next Friday. Hooray! My coworkers are saying to wait until at least Friday before writing back. This waiting game is killing me!

Vegas, you sassy chica! I've always been the impulsive type myself, not one to play by "The Rules", but a lot of ladies do swear by 'em. But I do have to say that being genuinely busy/active is a natural aphrodesiac... and being out of town next weekend lines up rather nicely on that score. Have fun in Vegas, mama! Where are you staying? I stayed at the Luxor when I went with my 3 gal-pals a few years back (great deal right after 9.11 - I know, I'm a vulture). The gambling wasn't my scene, but the glamour and the cocktails were very much up my street. You planning to make some moulah?

What about the J Ball guy? ________________ Like, totally!

JBall Ed emailed me today...we had some witty banter back and forth and then he asked when we're getting together. I gave him my schedule and am waiting to hear back! I LOVE birthdays!

I'm staying at the Paris with two guy friends from college. Should be interesting. Flying into LA, where one lives, and driving in with him...driving back with both (the other is flying in from NYC on Friday). Looking forward to a spa treatment at the Mandalay Bay, hitting the Liberace Museum, and getting a little well-deserved sunshine. Not sure about the gambling. Will drop a little in Sin City, but since my rent is going up, I need all I have in the bank. :) Totally down with the glitz and shmaltz.

I think you should go by "Raquel" in Vegas.

Looks like we're meeting for drinks tonight! Good thing I wore my jeans and black t-shirt uniform. Hopefully I won't stink from going to the gym at lunch. :)

Okay. If you want to spy on my date...it's at 6:30 at Casablanca tonight.

Sooooo....how was everyone's weekend?

Posted by Miriam on 2005-03-29 17:06:33 +0000
The date was okay. Not attracted to the guy. And, it turns out that I like a guy to at the very least offer to pay for drinks. This one didn't. Apparently I do have some standards. On an up-note: I got an email from a high school friend's mom (who I'm friends with, too), and she wants to set me up with a 35 year old guy named Andy Fagen when I get back to TN! This is getting a little crazy. I'm cool with that, though. Bring on the men!

Posted by dawnbixtler on 2005-03-29 17:57:04 +0000
Ah, the Fagen fagen.

Posted by Miriam on 2005-03-29 18:55:49 +0000
I was SO hoping someone would say that.

Posted by Miriam on 2005-03-31 18:57:33 +0000
Ahhhhhh! He emailed me back again, and I can't get the butterflies out of my stomach...and can't seem to write him back just yet. He's really eager to talk with me, which is good. But, I'm in LA and trying not to be a rude friend to the fella I'm staying with here. Hoping that he's not all pissed off and jealous (Ben, not Louis). Whatever. This is a very interesting predicament to be in. Guess I'll have to really keep track of it for my first romance novel. Speaking of which, I'm currently reading "Lessons in Seduction ." It's hot. Seriously, it's hot.
