Since I found out there are even more promising candidates up for review, I’ve gotten nervous.
Simultaneously scary and intriguing...
I may be interested in some of the food produced through molecular gastronomy. I usually stay away from food that isn’t natural and readily identifiable, but I’ve never tried it before - so that makes me want to. Has anyone been to Gargoyle’s in Somerville? It looks upscale, but I guess they have some of that kind of thing.
Oh. Well. Shit...
Self-reflection brings on some serious clarity. As it turns out, there’s no need to panic because I don’t especially want to get married. Not now, anyway. I just directed my energy into the wrong thing. We, as ladies, are expected to get our commitment on before we hit 30 and I buy right into it in moments of relative weakness. For example, when I’m feeling so far away from...

I’ll admit - as far as dudely media goes, I tend to hate a lot of it.
The showcasing of scantily-clad women reminiscent of meat in a deli case, the straight-up boorishness, the unabashed stupidity… Hi Maxim.
AskMen has all of that, no doubt. The difference is, there are well-written articles, an objective and motto of being a “better man” and commenters. The feedback...

So I guess happy anniversary or something to my...
They fought before they went out and then they fought when they got back and then my mom put an end to it by passing out drunk on the couch.
I’m really just counting down the years until they have no more obligations to hold them together and can be happy on their separate ways.
So there you have it. This is why long-term commitment is simultaneously my greatest fear and my greatest...
I’m going to pee myself in anticipation as I wait for the verdict on this job. OMG. I’m doing exactly what I told myself not to do - I’m grasping at this like my life depends on it.

You are a Grace — “I need to understand the world.”
Graces have a need for knowledge and are introverted, curious, analytical, and insightful.
How to Get Along with Me
Be independent, not clingy
Speak in a straightforward and brief manner
I need time alone to process my feelings and thoughts
Remember that If I seem aloof, distant, or arrogant, it may be that I am feeling...

OMG
My interview went great. In fact, it was the least stressful interview ever, once I got in after I struggled with being lost for 20 minutes.
I think I nailed it. It was like everything I said was welcomed with some positive comment! So this is awesome. I may have my very first internet and communications-related job coming out of this.
I’m both freaked out and ecstatic about a job interview this afternoon. The job will involve a lot of stuff, but a lot of image editing, web broadcasting, writing, editing and being on the front-line, at the receptionist desk. Just FYI: I figure the only way to curb my social anxiety is to really jump in, head-first. Also, being a receptionist as part of my job will give me an excuse to...
I pulled a major dumb.
Now I have to suffer for a few days to make up for it.
Great.
My enlightened self would be happy for another's...
So that is what I’ll do. I’ll turn it around and be happy for her, even though she stabbed me in the back in so many ways.
Congratulations. I wish none of that shit happened so we could have stayed friends.
