That Beyonce Was On to Something

I love the sound of my name rolling off of your lips.
For one thing, my expectations have fallen to the point where I’m just impressed that you remember it. Points for paying attention. And, because it’s an unusual name, I know that it wasn’t just a lucky guess.
Somehow, coming from you, it doesn’t […]

Sometimes Hindsight Can Be Hazy

I would love to see the thought process that our brain goes through when we’ve been alone for a while. Some productive people fill their hours with working out, working hard, working on themselves. I’m not one of these people.
Others bounce from one relationship to the next, racking up more rebounds than Dennis Rodman. […]

My Life, Upgraded

While some fish in our blogging sea have been dreading the idea of art imitating life, I’m being tormented by the Hollywood version of mine.
Any of my friends who met Boy Toy said that he reminded them of Justin Long (AKA the Mac Guy).

And I have been previously cast in the movie version of […]

I Bet My Friends Never Knew That’s What They Were For

I have no problem admitting to my faults, but the one thing I am good at is trying to compensate for them. I may not be able to fix every character flaw, but I do my absolute best at damage control.
For example, I am known for oversleeping so on important morning I set three […]

Under Thirty But Feeling Over the Hill

So, if you really want to feel old, go out with a group of students. We actually came to a point in the night tonight where a 22 year old young fireman-in-training tried to guess the age of everyone in our group. I stood next to a young woman one year younger than I […]

The Logistics of Lying

I grew up with one rule in my household- thou shall not tell lies. I was only grounded once in all of my partying, angst-filled high school days for getting caught in a lie, mainly because I never got enough practice to be good at it.
I clearly never had the proper motivation. After leaving […]

Instant Karma (Part 2)

Finding myself in boots that were definitely not made for walking, I realized that the bar we had just left was half the distance of walking all the way home. I also knew that there was a group of friends I grew up with that I could easily join, so I wouldn’t be sitting […]

I Guess This Makes Me a Giants Fan!

After a pseudo-break up with Boy Toy over the holidays, I reverted to old habits of singledom- namely scrolling through my cell phone for former flames that somehow fizzled. And I partially blame the NY Giants for my regression.
A few weeks prior, while Cali was in town visiting, I’d met a cute guy out […]

Stranded at the Airport, Branded a Fool

Yep, it’s official, my Boy Toy has been recalled.
Just a few weeks ago I was trying to define what I wanted from our relationship, and deal with him asking me to meet his parents on my next trip home. I didn’t worry much when our communication became less frequent as the holidays approached, because […]

What Do We Expect Out of this Relationship?

Proving that I really am the guy in most relationships, I’m not the one who brought up the question. I’m usually much more comfortable coasting along, not talking about the large pink elephant blowing bubbles on a stool in the corner, but focusing on how much fun we’re having together. If it ain’t broke, […]
