but no one's asking.
the other day, in meeting with my talking doctor, she reassured me that it's not that there's something wrong with me or that i'm lacking in some significant quality that prevents me from meeting good people. it's more due to what i've been willing to let in. i need to learn to let the good ones in and say "no thanks!" and run away from the not so good ones. case in point: the crackhead. new case in point: the 29 year old scottish dude who apparently is spreading his verbal seed all over the internet in hopes of finding someone/anyone who will take the bait. he started sending messages on myspace last week and at first he seemed harmless. then, of course, i did a little digging and found what sort of messages he likes to leave other women on his friends list. and the text messages he sent were a pretty huge indication of his nature, too.
the funny part is that he tries to claim that he's well behaved and chaste, that his crass nature and lewd comments were part of his UK sense of humor. in other words, he's a classless douche because he's from scotland? interesting. i think my other UK friends might beg to differ, but who knows. all i know is that i'm not so dumb to fall for that. or for anything else he had to offer (which wasn't much). we were supposed to meet up last night to go to a roller derby match but i wound up canceling - mostly due to a hangover and upset stomach, but also due to a growing disinterest in spending my time fending off his advances. scottish or not.
so, yeah. i have put my hat in the dating ring again via an online service but we'll see. i am really tired and not interested in having to deflect icky ones, and that's usually what ends up happening in this situation, so it may be another short-lived experiment.
i meant to go to church this morning but just couldn't be bothered. sometime around 10am i heard a knock at my door and i (very smartly) ignored it; turned out it was a jehovah's witness come to spread the good news or something. i threw the flier away.
in other news, i'll be going to cincinnati this month, dc next month, sf in july and puerto rico in august. i'm tired and broke just thinking about it, but it's all worth it.
