"i wasn't sure if we could parlay that into something more, i dunno, sexual."
it's so 'miss janet if your nasty' outside today. this is the second day in a row i've had to use public transportation into the office. i hate it! it takes foreeeeeeeeever. i read in the paper yesterday that in 2007 the mbta is practically doubling all of the fares. and for what? the same shitty service? no thanks. it takes me 30 minutes to get up the street, if it wasn't raining it would prolly be quicker to walk.
it has given me time to catch up on my reading though. there is a really cool article in rolling stone about amanda congdon, the vlog star. does anyone else watch rocketboom? i heart amanda. she's like the female version of the guy i want to end up with. she's sexy and incredible dorky. i guess she used to be a formal model, which makes me giggle because she has the personality of someone who'd probably mock models openly on the air. anywho, if you have tivo you can subscribe to the rocketboom podcasts. they're about 5 minutes a day and plenty amusing and often full of bush-bashing. hehe.
there is also a great cover story written by several historians who agree by a margin of 90/10% on just who is "the worst president ever" any guesses who they came up with? hee. the article is full of facts like this one: "according to the treasury department, the fourty-two presidents who held office between 1789 and 2000 borrowed a combined total of $1.01 trillion from banks and foreign governments. but between 2001 and 2005 alone, the bush white house borrowed $1.05 trillion, more than all of the previous presidencies combined. having inherited the largest federal surplus in american history in 2001, he has turned it into the largest deficit ever - with an even higher deficit, 423 billion, forcast for fiscal year 2006. they go on to discuss just about every area of the presidency comparing him to the worst and he's always on top in each category. who are these people that still support this asshat?
in other news i got a voice mail from michael yesterday. he thanked me for coming out to support the team but he wasn't as cutesy or playful as he normally is. :-/ i didn't have time to call him back last night since i bolted to the gym with kyle as soon as i got home and then i had a date right after that.
my date with tim went well. i watched prison break and 24 with him at his place. he was hooked of course, i didn't realize how complicated the storylines were until i tried to explain what was going on up until this point. he loves jean smart and chloe of course.
i wasn't sure if he was all that into me at first because we've been flirting-friends for so long. i wasn't sure if we could parlay that into something more, i dunno, sexual. at first he was sitting on the sofa opposite me. it wasn't very conducive to snuggling lemme tell you. that g-dam glass coffee table between us was hard and my feet couldn't even reach his feet. haha. he eventually moved over to my sofa citing it was higher and he felt like i was looking down on him. i said, "i've always looked down on you, you're from rhode island." hee. i'm joking! we almost touched feet once but that was about it. i think he's hot but i just wasn't sure what he thought. he's so hard to read. he's one of those people that can throw up blockers and i can't get a read on him. he was incredibly nervous, that's all i could read.
we got to catch up a lot. he's really one of most well-rounded people i've ever met. he has a great job. he's active, he's in crew, he owns his own business on the side. he owns a house in rhode island and a couple of dogs that his mom sits for him because he can't have dogs in his condo in boston.
it was raining when i left so he insisted on driving me home even though i only live like 10 blocks away. as we sat in his car, it was very strange, i really could not tell if he wanted me to kiss him or if he wanted to kiss me. so i leaned in and gave him a quick kiss and dove out of the car. as soon as i got in the elevator he sent me a text message saying, "sorry i was so shy!!" i told him i wasn't sure if he was still into me, and he said was stil VERY interested in me. i told him next time it would probably be a good idea to make physical contact some time during the date. haha. he said that he "wanted to touch me so many times" but "he was a wuss." haha. ok well i'm glad we got that out of the way. phew. next up, date two-boogaloo.
