Making my way, every day; Walking the road, bearing the load. Making it a little, but not all alone; Starting a life, getting it going.

A New Thoughtful Spot
 
Tuesday, January 22, 2002  
I discovered a new concept today: "free time". Still not quite sure what it is though - I had the nagging feeling all day that somehow, somewhere, I should be doing something productive. Oh well, too late to look back now. I enjoyed the rest anyway. I'm hoping to hear from a good buddy of mine later - he's (hopefully) going on a little date, and I would really like (for him) to hear that it went well. Not that I'm like Mr King of Love, or anything - since it's been an embarrasssingly long time since I dated - but that's OK. Eventually, when the time is right, I'm gonna get back in the game. Until then, I'm going to enjoiy being free..er, single. What I wouldn't give to meet a girl that I'd want to date, but it just ain't happening. Seems every girl that I meet is either some shallow, vapid snob, or already seeing someone. Not that I object to being friends with those - they're great people and all - but that is rather discouraging in general. Got no one to blame but myself, however, and I'm single by choice (pretty much). It would still be nice to meet a nice young woman though, if for no other reason than to convince my self that a) they're out there and b) that I can convince one to give me the time of day (and - perish the thought! - her phone #). Of course, I don't blame most ladies for not really noticing me. It's not like I'm some kind of "hottie" or something like that; nor am I the most outgoing soul that you'll meet. Thus, I tend to get left on the wayside, in favor of some guy who grabs their attention more strongly. And that's OK. If nothing else, by sheer process of elimination, there's going to have to be a woman or two still available out there for me (it's all in the numbers, and women outnumber men, I hear). @;^)
Anyway, enough of this prattling. Yeah, I'd like to have a date or two, but it doesn't seem to likely, and I'm OK with that. Better to wait for the right one(s) that get all broke up about the wrong ones. I got enough baggage already without picking up any more from some silly girl without the good sense to stick with me (*ending sarcasm/hubris before I get into trouble*).
