"The Lego Movie" = total fun. And how the heck did they film that?! Amazing.
Enjoying the "Circles" album by Mike Doughty. Formerly of Soul Coughing. "El Oso" is one of those CDs I never get tired of. Like Neil Finn's "Try Whistling This".
Don't need it... Don't need it... Don't need it...Okay, just go try it on.
Maybe it will look bad and you can walk away. Such a cunning plan I had!
Then she told me it was reversible. Ergh.
Speaking of art - I L.O.V.E. the marsh paintings by Jacob Cooley. I can practically smell the brine.
Really like the paintings by Larry Gray too. They are so much more evocative in person. Could look at them forever.
My Durham skyline necklace by Metamorphosis Metals is finally complete! Major the Bull added today at Vespertine.
Also bought this adorable Bitchy Resting Face bird print:
Now on to the world of dating.
Had a very nice date Wednesday night. Funny, nice looking (like a white haired Mark Ruffalo), proper usage of both English and utensils. Two sweet kisses on the lips at the end. Text yesterday that he would be back in town in a couple of weeks and we'd do it again. Well okay then. Just remember those cowboy boots, Mister.
On the same topic:
A "friend" had an interesting dating experience recently...
It's Date #2. While driving/showing him around town (he's from another city in NC), a hand was laid on the thigh while driving, sans permission (if it's not obvious, he was the hand layer). Later he went in for a kiss, not once, but twice, calling for the cheek deflect move. There were more dating crimes, but these were the most egregious.
She politely explained the lack of spark in an email, but now he is begging for forgiveness, to the tune of four to five groveling emails. My "friend" is torn between salvaging a friendship (same profession), or cutting her losses.
What say you readers?
Line crossed, no going back? Will he take forgiveness as a sign of hope? Will she be fighting him off for the remainder if she does extend the olive branch? Or should she stick to the initial lack of spark email and call it a day (meaning, don't respond to any of his groveling)?
Y'all have a good week, free from hand layers...unless of course, you want that.
I say cut loses and move on. If there have been that many grovelling email then he would only see response as encouragement.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty things you're getting yourself. I'm impressed.
ReplyDeleteYour date good. Friend's date bad. No respect (which includes persisting with the emails).
Nice art.
ReplyDeleteFriend's date: I suspect lack of spark existed regardless of crimes. How do you get forgiven for lack of spark? The answer would have been no anyway. Perhaps polite email saying no hard feelings, no spark, no more emails.
