More Baby Steps.

I've been to the gym a couple of times.  So that's some progress.  The scale isn't showing anything, but that's not really my priority at the moment.  I have to get into the workout habit first, I think. 

I need to get some granola made to take my usual meal of that plus yogurt and fruit to work.  I've been getting back in my bad habit of not eating at work and then eating whatever I can find on the way home because I'm starving--very, very bad.

I'm still behind on checking in on everyone.  Good to hear from some peeps!

Otherwise, life is overall good.  I'm trying to figure out how to get the girl cats to stop fighting.  I'm not sure why it's escalated this summer.  But it's not good.

And I'm still in the market for a man.  I think I finally stopped getting texts from the one who wanted to borrow gas money after the first date.  Only had to block his number for two rounds. 

The one who took me on a really sweet romantic date, then cancelled due to a "migraine", then sent an email about how "excited he was to see me again", then sent lame/nothing emails for days before getting all hacked off at me when I sent a tactful email asking if he intended to go out again or not--that one stung.  The last email from him was one line long and started with him repeating my name three times in the most condescending of ways.  WTF gives a guy the right to be an a-hole when all a woman is doing is asking, "Hey, do you really see us going out again or do you just want to dispense with the emails about nothing?"  In the long run, I'm better off, for sure, but it took my brain awhile to get around that one (which pissed me off even more that I even let it bug me)--a guy going from being all sweet and romantic to immediate jerk for no apparent legitimate reason.  I think men, in general, if things don't work out, like to pretend the woman is nuts--takes all the blame off them.  And, yes, one of you reading this went to high school with this one. 

On another note, I've had a couple somewhat promising first dates lately.  One with a psychiatrist, who, interestingly, pronounced me quite sane.  LOL. 

OK, well, enough of that.  Have to leave some material for the book.

Later.

  1. Hi Doc!!! Glad to see you back! Men are tools that is for sure. I have hope there are a few decent ones out there.

  2. Some men are morons. I, talented woman that I am, married two complete blithering idiots! I have mad skills, what can I say?

    Yet, optimist that I am, I married Choreboy and two-years-plus later he has not yet turned into a twerp. They're out there. Maybe the psychiatrist will work out. Regardless, it's nice to have confirmation that you're sane from someone who clearly knows what nuts is :)

  3. Don't look to me for dating or marital advice! I never want to regress to the terror of re-entering the dating pool; that's part of why I decided to stick it out w/the one I've got...
    (Like my former therapist said, P showed definite signs of being trainable, so I'd might as well stay the devil I know vs starting all over w/a new one!)
