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.

Nancy Drew's Guide to Life

After receiving an electrical shock to the system, find as many men as possible to vigorously massage you. - Mystery of the Glowing Eye

How convenient that tip of the day is considering that in the last two days, I've heard from four guys I used to date. Two were completely random, out of the blue and the others I've stayed in contact with intermittently.

The Not Randoms
1. Bryan and I went on a couple dates, had a swell time, but I had just broken up with Paul and wasn't ready to be dating so I let it cool off, with us occasionally chatting every few months. The last week or so, we've been trying to get together for brunch and it keeps not working out, so we're going to dinner tomorrow night. I'm really looking forward to it. He's such a funny, charismatic guy that it will be anything but dull. I'm unsure if it's a date though.

2. Steve. Steve and I have a checkered past to say the least. I was seeing him two years ago, before I met ex-boyfriend, then when we supposedly became exclusive, I stopped seeing Steve, as well as SAM (his real name completely escapes me) and Ryan. Steve and I have met up over the past two years every now and then, even with him having a girlfriend, who I'm pretty sure he's living with now. It gets to be sticky sometimes because there is still a very strong attraction there on both our parts, but in this Year of Good Decisions, I think I should be okay tonight when we meet for drinks. I am completely sure this isn't a date, at least from my point of view. Guess it will depend on how many drinks we have.

The Randoms
1. Boyscout is back people. If he wasn't so damn good looking and tall and funny....sigh. Anyways, he caught me online last night and we ended up chatting for about an hour. We'll see what happens there.

2. XM. Yep. XM is back too. After I stopped the secret dating, it took some time, but he got unmad at me and we went out as friends for dinner and drinks and had a lovely time catching up once it became unawkward (this was during football season, so like 5 months ago maybe?). I never know what's going to happen with this guy. When we said good night that night, we hugged, as is customary, and then as I was turning to head home, he grabbed my face (much more gently than that description sounds) and kissed me smack on the lips, pulled away, smiled, looked me in the eye, said good night and walked away. So weird. Anyways, last night I was out to drinks with a coworker and I mentioned XM because we're looking for people to share our Nats season seats with and I thought I should shoot him an email to see if he's interested even though I haven't talked with him forever. So I get home and see an email from him. After a couple bantering emails back and forth, we ended up on the phone for an hour or so and now we're having drinks Thursday. Again, unsure if it's a date or not, but given his track record, he probably thinks it is.

I knew I should have stayed on hiatus. This is getting exhausting.
