My cell rings and I answered without looking… Oh Shit! It's Gingivitis Kiss and he tells me he's in town later this week and can we meet up. I said, "Oh… I'm not sure. I'll have to let you know". So we chit-chat about work and another call is coming in. I tell him I have to get this other call. Phew, saved!
When I answer I'm surprised to hear its Shorty! WTF!?!? I haven't talked to him in almost two years. The last time I saw him was after some emails about how he's been evaluating his life, thinking about me and something about settling down? So he joins me at an office Happy Hour and we leave and things happen and he says maybe we can see each other once a month. WTF?!?! I said, "No we've been down that road before. This was a mistake and never call me again." I guess this translates as, "Call me in two years" in boy speak? So today he calls to see how I am and thank me for the references I have given him now that he has started his own company. There was awkward chit-chat and he says he will call again soon. I'm not holding my breath.
I get off the phone and log into my email to find an email from The Brit! WTF?!?! Something about his new image and yadda yadda something about being punk. There's a photo attached and I'm nervous to look but I slowly scrolled down and over. The first thing I see is a t-shirt that says "CHICKS HATE ME!" I scrolled up a bit to see he has green hair. I nearly fell outta my chair I was laughing so hard.
For a chick that hasn't had a date in quite some time I find it interesting that I'm contacted by three of these duds, I mean dudes, in all of 10 minutes. Is there a full moon tonight?
Seriously - when it rains....it pours!
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's you? I'm just kidding. Don't hit me or nuthin'. Consider them early trick-or-treaters in really annoying permanent costumes.
ReplyDeleteNo full moon; the new moon was last night.
Maybe they are part of the We dated Red network and this was on the website's things to do today list. Or maybe the Homeland Insecurity Dept decided the state of emergency had been raised to red which caused them to think of you and then let their fingers do the walking. Or maybe these 3 calls out of the blue in 10 minutes is evidence of unintelligent design.
ReplyDeleteI'll stop now.
Irish Red: Groups of three!
ReplyDeleteKeith: None of them are treats... well... maybe Shorty. See new moon last night and they get silly ideas in their heads. You would probably enjoy it if I hit you.
Jeremy: A lot of maybes there. How did you know about the Wedated Red support group?
I don't know. That happened to me in June and all I can say is that, depending on what you believe in (ie, God, higher power, biorhythms, chance, etc)...it may just happen.
ReplyDeleteIt's a cosmic test to see if you've learned something...
I feel for you...
I have had several friends that this has happened to...out of nowhere they get groups of calls from past dates.
ReplyDeleteI think you are right it is the full moon, if you do go out with any of them make sure you bring a silver bullet :).
Now you know how those poor congressional pages felt.
ReplyDeleteLickety: I think it is a cosmic test. I know I will pass.
ReplyDeleteAllan: I thought the silver bullet was for lycan?
Right, and Lycan appear with the full moon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Werewolf) :)
ReplyDeleteBruce: With these dudes it's more like regurgitation. The bad is coming back. So many bad that now I don't see the buses when they come down the street. Hahaha
ReplyDeleteAllan: Evidently, they came out after the new moon Sunday night.
