RAD: Joe Whoa!*

Name: Joe Whoa! Introduction Platform: Bumble. He looked cute and close. A tad on the young-ish side for me, but handsome and interesting looking. Said he lived downtown, so bonus. Age: 43 R...


OMG - the gym was packed full of hot guys on Saturday morning for the big 90 minute class! I’m not sure where these guys are coming from. Is it that I’m just finally athletic enough to put so...

Gurgle...bloat.

Happy Friday. I am so fucking over this office that I’m going to spend the last of my workday writing an entry. How about that? I told you we had our big sales meeting here over the week, right?...

Got There...But It's Tricky

This week is our International Sales Meeting at work. It’s in preparation for our big trade show next month and it is a lot of work and preparation and blood, sweat and tears on our (counterpart...


Got the blues so bad I’m paralyzed! Seriously need to take the dog for a walk, but I need to get this out quickly, I think. Picked dog up from daycare on Friday evening. There’s construction goi...

Impromptu

Happy Friday! It’s finally here! Not any big deal, really since I have another HUGE PPT presentation to work on for next week’s big sales meeting, but I’m just glad it’s here anyway. Yesterday’...


Well. Last night’s date with Dr. D was verrrry interesting! Remember how I’d suggested that we meet at this sexy little cocktail lounge? Dr. D said he was game to try it, but it turns out the...

HUMP-day

And now it’s Wednesday. First thing this morning I arrived at the office to an email from Brown Nosey about one of the financial presentations I have to give tomorrow. We have to do these pres...

The Plots Thicken!

Dr. D from previous entry called me last night to chat. I thought that he might have been calling to ask me out, but we ended up just doing a lot of gabbing and during that time I figured out a ...

RAD: Doctor D.

Name: Doctor D….as in drawl, as in Southern Drawl, which he has. Introduction Platform: Bumble. Still on there sporadically and checking in from time to time. He’d ‘extended’ my time, which i...

Staff Lunch

....and it’s Friday. I am looking forward to knocking a bunch of shit out at work today (mostly presentations) and then heading home for a weekend of nesting. I literally have nothing planned a...

SexyEx

Just out of first meeting of the day. Man, Brown Nosey is like a dog on a bone - not just with me, but with everyone! She was REALLY pushing my engineer on some new product development and I ju...


OMG you guys. You have no idea what a sigh of relief I’m breathing!! I found out about an hour ago that a presentation/review I’d been KILLING myself to complete before tomorrow has been postpon...

Quick Blips on Dating Stuff

The Scot is still sending me sweet messages and is still telling me he’s coming to visit me here in [my city] at the end of February. How? I don’t know. How can he afford it if NYC broke the ...

It's Out There

I’m currently in a drawn-out text conversation with The Scot regarding the hotel bill. He’s been hinting around about PROPOSING to me, and I sputter and cough every time he does, because…WTF? W...

Fri-yeah

Happy Friday! Well, I started an entry waaaaay back on Wednesday while I was prepping for my day and getting ready for a meeting featuring Brown Nosey - who makes me want to barf - but I have t...

The Weekend.

Started super mellow on Friday as I got home from work fairly late, spent and exhausted, and had nothing planned in the evening except tomato bisque soup and cuddles with the dog. And that’s exa...


Name: Soft-Talking Software Salesman (SSS) Introduction Platform: Bumble. As part of my sad, post Scotsman Bumble frenzy, I swiped right on this guy and he swiped right on me. Age: 48 Relatio...

Headhunter Non-Convo

Very quick conversation with headhunter today. She has a position open that she’s trying to fill and it’s the least sexy job I’ve EVER heard of - though it is a Brand Director position (which is...

Tuesday Morning Smattering

Happy Tuesday. I’m in the office in body but not in soul. There’s a million and one things to do, and I will get to them - I’m mentally preparing for the day. My kind-of counterpart has just wa...

Working Holiday

So yes, I worked today. And yes, it was a holiday. And yes, I was annoyed. But less by the fact that it’s a holiday (that many companies don’t observe anyway) aned more so by the fact that I ha...

RAD: Super Geek

Name: Super Geek Introduction Platform: Bumble. I was feeling bluesy about The Scot and didn’t want to get back on Tinder, so I peeked in on Bumble and found this guy…ready and willing to meet...

More of Them Out There?

I know - it’s not super cool to just put myself right back out there, but I was feeling bluesy about distance and, you know, just the…uugggghhh of not knowing what I’m doing with the Scot. So mu...


Ok, okay. Don’t get me wrong, I had the most wonderful time with The Scot in New York, but I think I’m just coming back to reality and trying to dissect WTF just happened in the last few weeks. ...


Happy Hump Day! At work. Just had a long meeting first thing this morning with my team and Brown Nosey (who is now the director of the “support” organization that’s meant to help me with my job)....
