A Tree, a Futhermucker, and Other Motherfuckers, Part 2 in These Foolish Things
Part 2 in the dating series… Last Saturday night was The Tree’s turn at a date! If you remember, I’d gotten a funny feeling about the guy perhaps stringing me along. Previously, we’d gone on ...
A Tree, a Futhermucker, and Other Motherfuckers, Part 1 in These Foolish Things
…Because dating can turn into a full-time gig if you’re not careful. Let’s start with Friday night, shall we? Earlier in the week I’d had an amazing date with someone I named Futhermucker (becau...

As the Leaves Turn... in These Foolish Things

RAD: The FutherMucker in These Foolish Things
Name: FutherMucker (in his profile he says he likes to curse) Age: 40. Yes, 40. Just like The Tree was, but for some reason I wasn’t self-conscious about the age difference this time. Status: In...

Champagne Campaign, Day 5 in These Foolish Things
Whelp, since I no longer have sexy stuff to discuss, I figure I can get caught up on some travel chronicles. Go back a few entries to see where I was. Then, onward… Day 5: Woke early because I...
Up a Tree Without a Paddle in These Foolish Things
Ugh. I’m trusting my gut more lately, and what my nauseated gut is telling me is that I’ve been played. I don’t believe that The Tree had to watch his kid last night simply by the nature of our ...
Couldn't See the Forest for The Tree in These Foolish Things
Notes on my previous entry are brill, thank you! I may be starting to calm down a bit from all of the excitement of my Tuesday night make-out festival with The Tree. I read all of the notes, go...
Last Night with The Tree in These Foolish Things
You guys. I’m very, very confused. Maybe I’m just not used to a normal date anymore? Everything happened normally last night, I guess. He picked me up (brought fall flowers!), took me to a...

Champagne Campaign, Day 1 in These Foolish Things
A series on my trip to Paris and the Champagne Region… The day I left for France was the day Emotional A got fired by my boss – which was weird in and of itself. First of all, why wouldn’t her a...

This France trip is ah-MAY-zing! I’m calling it my Champagne Campaign. I’m a little over halfway through this trip and I want to make sure that I write about the following. Here are some blurb...
Updates on Odds N' Ends in These Foolish Things
Here’s a random list of things that have happened or have been on my mind lately. I thought I’d write them down. Hair: I cut my hair. I mean, I personally cut my hair - myself. DIY-style. I t...
Labor Day and Labor Issues in These Foolish Things
Happy Labor Day Weekend! It’s Sunday, and I’m waiting for my Amazon Prime Now order to show up within the next hour and 1/2, so I figured I’d write an update. Work is still super, super weird. ...
