Decisions...Decisions...


I"m so proud of myself. I had a surefire opportunity to end my 9-month drought this weekend with Mr. Four Popped Collars, and completely didn't take it. All I had to do was say yes and I'd have seen what was under those 4 popped collars...but I wasn't interested. Ok, maybe a little curious...LOL.

So I have this opportunity to have my blog read by a couple million people. Of course, as a writer, it's a great opportunity. But (there's always one), I'd have to give up my anonymity. So do I take fame and fortune and guarantee that I'll never date again? We already know dudes don't chicks with dating blogs. Hmm...

****
At 12:45 a.m. Sunday morning, I got a text: "U awake?" I looked at the sender and debated whether I should respond. Everyone knows that the only thing open after 12 is a pair of legs. I decided I was going to ignore it...then I remember one of my friends telling me a story about a dude who left a message on her voicemail at that hour right before he killed himself. Damn.

I responded. I was out shaking my tail feathers. Was everything ok?

Twenty minutes go by...no response...

Hello? Is everything ok?

He was driving. I let it go...

At 3:15 a.m. I get another text: "Still out?"

I suck my teeth. "If something is wrong, please tell me." No response.

A day later, he says..."I was just thinking of making an impromptu trip to say hey."

Who takes an impromptu trip of 2+ hours to say hey? *sigh* I should have gone with my first mind.

This is what you were looking for right? Not the attempted bootie call from your old faithful, but the chance to be published? Maybe switch it up a little and make it less personal? Eh? No?

Shut up. He's such a freakin' loser now. I can't believe his obvious ass. He soooo wants you to give him an out. Been there, but didn't go there. That's freakin' bullshite. His dumbass needs to grow the fuck up!

As for fortune and fame, do you really need to ask anyone? Just look at your day job and your lovely SOB boss and that should answer your question. I feel you're headed towards a "9 to 5" movie ending. For you young ass readers, that means she'll be kidnapping and torturing her boss.

The world is yours. If you's ugly, we'll see why you're anon. If you're gorgeous, it will make you so much more dynamic and complex. Take it. Do it. Don't look back.

"Seen her from behind?" Visions of Phyllis Yvon Stickney?

Rebounds are for basketball players. Been there, done that, did the sniff test.

Go public imo - increased feedback, viewers, exposure.

Booty call? Able to handle the potential ensuing emotional fallout? If so...shit, why not?

Signed,
