Hey everyone

How was your weekend?

Anyone have any dates to report?

~~~

My weekend was insanely busy, but very good. Had a 2nd date Friday night which was nice but we won't be seeing each other again - some glaring incompatibilities are surfacing early on, we both see them and both agree there's really no point in moving forward, so...

Otherwise, had bunch with some friends, then lunch with some other friends, then dinner with yet another group of friends to celebrate a big birthday. A very yummy day, overall

Sunday was less hectic, kinda....started the day with a long walk to Starbucks where I had breakfast and read for while....then, I treated myself to an xbox with Kinect (early birthday gift) and omg - SO fun! I got the sports, dancing and personal trainer games and they are all really entertaining and MAN do you break a good sweat playing them. Been having tons of fun with it so far. Then I went to sushi, swung by a party I was supposed to go to (parking was a nightmare so I ended up skipping it). Stopped for a frozen yogurt dessert, then headed home in time to turn on the news and learn about Osama Bin Laden's death. Definitely made for a memorable end to the weekend!

~~~

How about you? What'd you get up to this weekend?

I had a good weekend, Thursday my boyfriend came over for a short while, just because next weekend we are going to meet his dad, and he's been so nervous about that, so we just talked. We'll see how it goes. Then Saturday we had intentions to go to a baseball game, his college, the Iowa Hawkeyes were playing the Minnesota Gophers, but it was raining all morning and early afternoon, so we made an executive decision not to go. Instead we went to the movies, went to see The Conspirators. It was a good movie. We then afterwards went to Cracker Barrel for dinner. I love that restaurant. Since we didn't go to the baseball game on Saturday, we went to the game on Sunday instead. It was freezing, windy, cold, etc. But my boyfriend really wanted to go, so I agreed. It was fun, and his team won. It feels so much like fall here, rather than spring. I went to bed early, so I didn't know about Osama Bin Laden, until I woke up this morning, and saw some Facebook posts by my friends, and heard about it on the radio. Wow! I haven't been able to concentrate on anything at work today. When I first heard about it, all I wanted to do was hug my boyfriend, but that was not obviously possible. I felt better being around my co-workers than being alone today.

For now..I am living vicariously through you!!! LOL...you really have some fun weekends...

Mine was pretty quiet...some lunch with friends on Saturday...church on Sunday...and had mixed feelings of justice and sadness for all that was lost on 9/11 (I lost a good friend in the Pentagon..as well as fellow firefighters in NY)..having 2 active military family members...this is a definite boost in morale!

and yes...was a girlie girl with my mom on Friday and watched the Royal Wedding....I was never a girl/woman who played with dolls...dreamed of Princes...or thought about weddings...but I think because those two really seem in love...and I admired Princess Diana for her humanitarian work...it was a magical day...

I actually loved the words of the Bishop and his blessings...

Especially the part below..

Marriage should transform, as husband and wife make one another their work of art. It is possible to transform so long as we do not harbour ambitions to reform our partner. There must be no coercion if the Spirit is to flow; each must give the other space and freedom..

And..

The more we give of self, the richer we become in soul;the more we go beyond ourselves in love, the more we become our true selves and our spiritual beauty is more fully revealed. In marriage we are seeking to bring one another into fuller life.

Loved those parts!!!

Am hoping to get back on EH in the next weeks and turn back on matching to see what adventures are to come

No dates yet, but I am suddenly emailing with 3 guys from EH. Months of nothing, and now this! I guess this sort of makes me a "multi-dater"? Just trying to keep them all straight!

Our annual Gala at work was Friday night, so I worked 14 hours, 8 of them in a cocktail dress and heels! Saturday I got caught up on chores and errands, Sunday was a dance performance at my daughter's university dance ensemble.

No dates, the Scottish guy I was so excited about poofed - we dated fast and furious and it was amazing, but when I got into a three week show run he couldn't handle it. he did okay at first, then poofed during the last week. I called him on it and he said he didn't feel like he could establish any momentum and continuity so early on with my schedule.
I was stunnned, totally didn't expect it - then I was (and still am) pretty saddened by his decision.
C'est la vie, right?

I went on a second, third & fourth date with someone that I met last weekend. Friday we went for a bike ride and out to dinner, Saturday went dancing, and Sunday went to lunch, a movie, and then dinner. It's fun to go out with him, but I feel like I want to continue to meet other people. You can tell he's excited and has been telling his friends and family about meeting me. That has me worried that he's getting too invested. Maybe I'd better break it off now. I long for the familiar uncomplicated married life i used to have.
