Anonymous asked: Where do you like to get your sandwiches?

  1. publican quality meats. you must go!  pork belly anything 
  2. nohea. fresh, light, and delicious!  grab a lunch and take it to beach kind of place.  

Anonymous asked: Hi there - Did you quit blogging or just taking a break? To bad if you stopped.

i’m still here. just taking a break.  the dating scene is meh.  

my latest update: met a lawyer at a bar a few weeks ago and he’s so busy with work we haven’t even gone out, he’s cancelled like 5 times!  crossed him off my list

Anonymous asked: how do you feel about younger men?

the way i see it, all of them are immature.  young and old 

going speed dating…

tonight!  

i also received an email that a bunch of guys dropped out of the event and i have the chance to reschedule.

unreliable guys, i’m used to it!  

my latest date…

FAILED.

  1. he was 20 minutes late
  2. he asked me if i was easy
  3. he told me he is greedy-admitted that he would never help his family out
  4. he’s shorter than me
  5. he has a chinese accent
  6. my dad would probably like this guy
  7. oh yeah and he’s boring

i went to this date all nervous and shit like i wasn’t good enough, all that insecure girl shit you get into once in awhile thinking you’re not funny or pretty enough.  it quickly changed after a cup of coffee and realizing damn its not me thats fucked up but single dudes out there SUCK! 

moving

in a month i will be moving to a 70 unit building in a brand new neighborhood and i’m excited to see what’s in store for me there.  i’m upgrading from a 3 bedroom to a 1 bedroom.  maybe life will be a lot more different…

what i’m seeking:

a man mediocre at most things but at least he worships the ground i walk on

summer adventures:

  • hitting the beach regularly
  • riding my bike with my friends
  • checking out art museums-just went to the mca and art institute 
  • trying new restaurants, donut shops, and gelato places
  • reading more 
  • festivals, food, and live music every weekend

and best of all: without a man..

and still having the time of my life

danced all night

made out as i ran my fingers through his wavy locks on the dance floor.  he was fun.  he also lightly kissed my neck and shoulder when he was behind me.  so sweet.  

content

i just want to be content.

wow you’re pretty

some bum

i’ll take what i can get

so do i call him?

we went on a date exactly 1 week ago, last monday.  we exchanged texts tuesday.  we haven’t scheduled any follow up interaction.  do i do this today?  or do i just give up and say he’s just not that into me?  

ugh but the date went so well! 

so forward on the bus

  • dude: do you have a boyfriend?
  • me: no (i'm too honest)
  • dude: why not? girl put my numba in yo phone
  • me: no thanks.
