My Voodoo Doll Ain’t Workin’ (2) in Open Diary 2001-2018 (Pre-Prosebox)

Evan took me to what has to be the trendiest place in town. An extremely expensive Nouveau-Japanese place with an impossibly-beautiful people scene. It was at the bar where he proceeded to embarrass me to no end. He requested an old-school drink (read: old fogey) that the bartender didn’t understand…even I don’t quite understand what his beef is on this issue. But he wouldn’t let up, and when we finally got our drinks, Evan announced, “he’s not getting a tip from me” in a really huffy voice.

By that time, I was really uncomfortable. I told him that he’s now living in the 21st century and things have evolved in the cocktail world since the 50s. But when it was time for our second drink, he moved on to another poor bartender. This time, a chick, who wouldn’t take any of his crap. I applauded her.

Thank heavens for my two-drink maximum. Well, it was time to go home anyway. I’d had enough of the old guy.

He drove me back to my pad, and as much as I was dying for him to kiss me last time, I was not into it at all this time. Unfortunately, for some reason, he wanted to make out in the car with me! I guess he could feel that my lips were rather unenthusiastic, so he stopped and I got out of the car and he followed me inside and up the stairs and even inside when I opened the door!

Once inside, I didn’t even offer him a seat. I gave him no option. Especially since I immediately picked up Kitty and started loving on him. Evan finally took the clue and said his goodbyes.

I shut and locked the door behind him, then immediately let out a sigh of relief and fell into bed.

That’s obviously proof that I have a defective voodoo doll, wouldn’t you say?

Screw it. I’m not even going to try any more. That, or I just need to post a new profile on a different internet site! Ha!

Strangely enough, I just checked my e-mail, and Evan thanked me for being such a “sport” last night and asked me to dinner on Wednesday. Guess what? I’m not going. I have other things to do. I’ll write about the other things later.

Seriously, I think I’m trying too hard to make love connections. My problem is that I want every person that I meet to be “the one”, and the second I find out that he doesn’t possess each and every quality that I want in a partner, then I drop him like a hot potato.

Not real sure what to make of it all. And I’m now tired from analyzing.

I’m also procrastinating. I need to get going on a project for work. I’ll check back in later, I’m sure…
