Back From the Grave

So what happened Easter weekend?

Well, I had a lot of homework to complete, but did not get enough of it done- Friday I was supposed to have lunch with Toni but she canceled so I applied for some externships instead. I have heard 1st semester 2nd year is very similar to this term in terms of sheer awfulness but then again, nothing can beat RWA so maybe not. I guess I want to do this.
Then Friday I went to MTM's house for dinner and - that was all right. Not being satisfied with one married chap she has turned her attentions to another married chap who claims that he only got married to stay in the country- but he's been married 20 odd years. I don't think MTM is getting the whole- men-will-lie-through-their-teeth-to-get-you-into-bed concept. There are some nice single guys who like her, but does she like them? Not much, she is after the married ones and is complaining about Married guy #1, well, he doesn't care about me.

No that is honestly not the problem. The real problem is that divorce is hell for men, financially and otherwise and there just are no real good endings for affairs with married guys. The options are A) he gets a divorce and leaves his wife or B) he doesn't get a divorce. If he does get a divorce, it's going to be hideously expensive, and as he is prominent in our area and his wife is prominent in our little burg, for decades hence people are going to point at MTM and say there goes that ho who broke them up. He's going to end up in a financial hole that he will never be able to dig his way out of. When I have high school students, most of their parents are divorced and I frequently visit the mom's house one week and the dad's house the next, who always has the much bigger and fancier house? Uh huh. And you don't want to be never again able to frequent your hangouts and become Jezebel.

The other option is that he not divorce his wife and continue stringing you along and - for obvious reasons that is a bad thing. But MTM continues to insist that this is some sort of character defect in him rather than just a bad situation for both of them and one that's left behind as soon as possible.

I know I would never go round with a married guy and be the "other woman." There's just no good thing coming out of this.

Anyway, what have I been doing? Friday I - yeah, that guy.
Saturday I was sposta but didn't
Sunday I wanted to go to church but didn't have a chance and then Trey came for Easter, which turned out to be a fiasco. He went out of his way to hurt my feelings by talking to the neighbours and then he told me that before we broke up he was trying to hurt my feelings by sleeping with someone here and getting caught in the act- and I got mad. Now I am feeling sad. I don't think it's right for someone to come back from essentially the grave and try to hurt my feelings. (I respect and love Trey except I love him somewhere else, as far away as possible. Not here.

I dunno, I do want to get to know someone better if they are reasonably good looking and good in bed. Notice I said, Reasonably. They do not have to be as cute as Trey, but they have to be- reasonably attractive, as in, not fat and they cannot have a squooshed up face or make duck faces at me, or be bald, unless they are black. Would a reasonable person in similar circumstances (meaning, have I drunk an entire liter of gin yet; not always) find them attractive? And they have to be good in bed, and then I will get to know them!
See, let me ‘splain. I bought tickets to see Avenue Q originally intending to go on a date with someone. So far, I have not encountered anyone I want to waste a $43 ticket on, because ok, one guy I like, but just as a FRIEND and we almost had that conversation yesterday because he was talking about he wasn’t into shopping around and alarm bells started going off for me. Right now, I am totally into shopping around after a lengthy relationship and eventually I will find the right person and stop, but I have made the mistake before of compromising too early. I don’t want to encourage him further by inviting him to a fairly intimate thing, and then I’m not going to talk to someone online and spend $43 and this ticket on them without having seen are they fat or not yet, and are they dating material. someone I don’t care that deeply about. Instead, I will use it for someone whom I do care deeply about.
My brother.
(aww, isn’t that special? yes it is. ) Women place great importance on the whole getting to know you thing, but guys know: we don’t really care what your ideas and innermost feelings are because when you start going off on some tangent about how some heartwrenching tragedy, like how when you were 5 your sister killed your goldfish by trying to make it evolve and walk on land- we think, A) Is this something that requires me to take action RIGHT NOW? B) No, s/he’s just yapping, I can go back to thinking about what I am going to eat for dinner. I am aware that people have feelings and all, but I prefer to have them addressed directly, like I AM FEELING THIS WAY. YOU DO THIS. What we do care about is, do you look good enough that we can deal with incessant yapping about something pointless, and are you good enough in bed that we can deal with your being angry when you got mad because we were thinking about car porn while you were yapping about something pointless.
Anyway, to answer y’all’s questions, yes I would and will go on “conventional” dates but that would be an awful lot like hanging around MTM, after I see if someone’s worth spending $ to go see, then I will, yes? And you see the two-prong test (hee, two prong test) I use. I agree that it probably would be a bad thing if I were having just empty, meaningless sex – for one thing, I am sure I will probably get sick of it, and for another thing, it’s not supposed to be empty and meaningless, it’s supposed to lead somewhere. Which eventually it will, and besides, I don’t see y’all hooking me up with anyone! Hello! And if you do, do not hook me up with any fat people, or pasty computer geeky types, ok? I think I have made that very clear.
Anyway this should just not be this hard because I am not fat, and I am not desparate and I am not high strung and drama oriented. Like the last time I spent the night at Patchouli Boy’s house, I was very careful to put my shoes together and line them up JUST SO. But I did throw my socks on the floor, so perhaps that is why he was so irked. I would really like to go to Trackside and see the immensely fat girl from my class who is from up North and hates the south and goes to Agnes Scott sing karaoke on Thursday but I do not think that is going to happen. I emailed Jical- I think I might havta do more follow up with the guys I’ve already got. The problem here is that I gots NEEDS dammit. It is hard for me to concentrate unless I gets me some of that vitamins c and D on a regular basis. Scott is really Nice but, I am so not attracted to him. So the solution would be to put Scott’s brain into Trey’s body. I don’t know what we would do with Trey’s brain. Transplant it into a dog maybe.
Y’all I don’t believe in Evolution, because if Evolution were true we woulda come up with something better than – by now.
And people are getting fatter! I’m going to start counting the number of really fat people I see everyday. God, if this law school thing does not work out, I want to open a boutique for really gigantic brides. I will call it “The Wide Bride” of course. I might have to move somewhere like Missouri, there seemed to be a lot of fat people in Missouri from what I recall from my layover there.

I am sorry that I have not been funny recently, but you know what has been happening. O Mitch came and got the other car to run yesterday so now it's on to the next thing that it needs, which looks like a whole nother exhaust system,
