getting schooled at home

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

Things that I have learned or relearned/remembered, either about myself or just in general, while spending this week at my father’s…

only packing laundry leaves for an interesting selection of clothes; in my case, just a handful of tshirts and jeans, only one nice top, and a whole lot of socks and underwear.
sleeping in the schoolroom [...]

yet again…

girl likes boy.  boy likes girl insomuch as enjoys her personality and has commented on her physical attractiveness.  girl and boy live roughly 190 miles away.  boy was the one who initiated contact.  boy still flirts and act as though he’s interested.  girl suggests they meet while she has access to a vehicle.  boy suggest [...]

just an update.

maybe I’m not in fail mode.
I don’t know.
Regardless, the swell guy and I should talk more…
So basically, if you’re wanting an update:
girl likes boy.  boy apparently also likes girl.  boy and girl live roughly 190 miles away from each other.
Yep.

again and again

Well. It happened again. It seems I’m still on relationship fail mode.
I can understand why. We do live hours away. So I knew that actually developing something would take a bit more. Yet I go into getting to know people with an open, yet generally hopeful, mind.
But apparently, this one [...]

swell expectations

Sunday, January 25th, 2009

Even though this week is about me relaxing and refocusing myself so that I can return to work in February ready to work on things — something in which I’ll expand on later this week, maybe — I’m sort of hoping things work out where I can take a jaunt up north and visit with [...]

a swell conversation

Saturday, January 24th, 2009

swell guy: do you kiss on the first date?
rini: depends on the guy
swell guy: got ya
rini: if it feels like a kissing moment, and I’m into the guy, then I’m not opposed
swell guy: I’ll keep that in mind
… well .. if we ever hung out
I’d probably want to kiss you
rini: and I’d probably [...]

quixotic and the never ending battle.

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009

so the battle of the crush is on.  … yet again.  (I thought I was done with this?)
It’s a time when I find someone who fascinates me enough to want to get to know them, and then keep getting to know them.  And if these initial stages are done online, then the desire moves to [...]

this is not take your angry uterus to work day.

I cannot find any mildly acceptable way of telling my (male) boss that I have cramps and want to go home.
Other than saying just that.  Erg.

a nauseating mixture of emotions.

Obama is officially our President.
I feel sick.
The two are completely unrelated.
I watched the inauguration online, since I don’t know of any televisions in the building, plus the whole “work” thing sort of requires that I stay at my desk.  I would have like to have been in some sort of group of people enjoying the [...]

musings on my (internet) dating life.

Monday, January 19th, 2009

Ok.  Well.  I sort of feel the desire to say that, in reference to my previous post (see here: iCrush), that I am not “very much in love” with anyone.  I am infatuated, curious, and ensnared by their display of online attractiveness.  I just happen to like the word “smitten”… (and for that matter “smite” [...]
