Give me some good beer, conversation, friends, and music and there is little that will bother me. I try to treat others as I wish to be treated and when I don't, I like to think I learn from my mistakes. I believe most people are trustworthy until proven otherwise. I'm a conversational snob. I have little tolerance for stupidity or rudeness. Common courtesy is one of the best traits one can have. I believe there is conversation that is inappropriate for the dinner table. I love running into people I used to know, but am always happier if I look cute when it happens. I think there would be much less ruckus in the world if brunch were a daily offering.

I Am Far Too Old For This Type of Behavior

Precursor to story: Even though I started the day thinking I was going to stop seeing Paul, he and I talked about some stuff this morning and the things that have been bothering me about both of us should change. We shall see - I hope so. I kinda like the guy.

Okay, so I've been kinda unhappy with things with Paul for a bit now. I admit, some of it is my fault and I've been avoiding a real discussion with him about it because we have a lot of things coming up that we have committed to. Friday night kinda pushed me over the edge and I wasn't really looking forward to going out with him, his friend and his friend's girlfriend Saturday night. He kept pushing back the time to meet and got crabby with me when I asked questions about what the plans were. So I did something really, really stupid and went out for drinks and dinner with this guy Daniel who over the course of the last year has been trying to get me to go out with him in a more than friend kind of way. Not that I did anything untoward or gave Daniel the wrong impression at all. He knows I am dating Paul and I was very clear it was just two friends hanging out. I just needed to be around someone who was obvious in his attraction to me and desire to spend time with me for a bit of an ego boost. Look, I never said I was mature, okay?

Anyway, Daniel and I had a great time hanging out which put me in a much better mood. I cabbed over to Paul's and his friend & gf arrived a short time later. I ended up having a pretty good time. I had never met them before and they turned out to be a great couple. One of those couples you look at and are happy that they are so happy with each other and don't hate even though they are super cute and in love. Really fun people. Well, over the course of the evening I drank way more than I should have. Turns out drinking for about 6 hours is not a good idea. So stupid. I ended up getting a bit sick and felt like crap all day yesterday. The irony here is that I would have been fine if I hadn't met up with Daniel. Talk about instant karma.
