omega-3

Besides eating healthy, exercise, and taking my vitamins and supplements, the key to all my excess energy comes from...having fun.

*****
My childhood was filled with having fun that I could duplicate it in my adult life. Currently, there is some partying/dancing involved, but mostly, it's all about the small things. Whether it is reading, watching sports, talking on the phone with my sister, eating with my brother and his fiancee, or just keeping up with friends, I fill my life with easily obtainable goals that guard against the unpredictable events.

Dead battery? Not a problem, I had a friend who was able to wait with me until AAA comes. The longest work week that nearly burn me out? The weekend ski trip awaits!

*****
I am not waiting for Prince Charming to call because wishing for him is just not a good investment of my time. True, there is that one hot guy who is on my mind, but I've got to just keep moving forward because of inertia...Catch me if you can!!

timing is everything

You found your way
into my heart
by being you

At this moment though,
we are at different places

Do I wait or move on

Have the sweet memories been set
or is the best yet to come?

sympathy date

Perhaps the only thing worse than dating someone too long is to continue to spend time w/o explaining that it's just friendship.

*****
Last week, my guy friend went on a sympathy third date. After a couple of dates, he concluded that she was not a keeper. She asked him to a play next, and he accepted because he claimed to enjoy her company.

My friend thoroughly enjoyed the play. Apparently, the woman did too and proceeded to ask him out to another event the following week. My friend of course refused.

*****
In the world of dating, honesty about attraction is a must. Okay, maybe my friend doesn’t have to be brutally honest, but he cannot help it if there is no chemistry.

Perhaps he could have given the friend speech before the play? Or perhaps he could have invited another friend and made it a group outing (my personal favorite)? All I know is that the woman was into him, and he wasn’t into her. It would have been nice to tell her sooner than later.
