Hyper-Analysis! in These Foolish Things
I wonder if anyone’s ever analyzed ME as much as I have analyzed certain guys in my journaling? It’s embarrassing that I spend so much energy on someone who seems to have such low interest in me...
What Wood You Think? in These Foolish Things
So, when I last wrote about the Tree, we’d talked on Saturday about the fact that he wouldn’t dare pursue others after kissing me and that he wasn’t much of a phone talker and that it’s much bett...
Updates on Various in These Foolish Things
Work: End of the workday on Wednesday. I’m just D.O.N.E. The last two days have been the longest two days I’ve had in a long time - back to back meetings, hours and hours of presentations to p...
The Tree Reaches Out in These Foolish Things

A Tree, a Futhermucker, and Other Motherfuckers, Part 3 in These Foolish Things
More stories about my recent forays into dating… After my date on Saturday night with The Tree, I took Sunday off from dating, Tindering, all of that stuff. I was pretty saturated after two date...
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
…or WTF Do I Know? My plan of ignoring texts from The Tree worked, I guess? He sent me a random text from his biz trip in LA late yesterday that I flat out didn’t answer, and first thing this mor...
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 2 in These Foolish Things

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...
Francy-Pants in These Foolish Things
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...
