Can you accomplish anything via phone with CS instead of waiting on line at the terminal?
Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
It is so time for teleportation.
MIRACLEMAN, WHERE ARE YOU!?!?
Miracleman is doing his homework. Sadly, not his math homework, but his English homework.
So, you'll all be happy to know that I talked to cute backstage girl today. She was very friendly and easy to talk to, and whatever hint of perfume or whatever she was wearing today was wonderful.
And she has a boyfriend.
Being single in LA is just seriously shitty. Nobody that I'm interested in is ever single. I hate dating in this town. The only reason it's less shitty than dating was in Ann Arbor is because I had already been rejected by every single woman in Ann Arbor. At least out here there are women who haven't had a chance to reject me.
This sucks. Thinking about my singleness is painfully depressing, but I fail at not thinking about it.
I'm sorry Sean. It really sucks feeling that way.
Well, you tried. Every single woman? really? I don't think so. Unless you plan to start posting as Turtle.(Which I wouldn't suggest, btw.) But I can kind of understand, except trying to wait to be approached is a much less "Whoop, there it is," rejection format, and I'm not surrounded by starlets and shit. But you don't have to deal with people's first thought when they see you being "Whoa, tough break," either. Which is every bit as sexy as it sounds.
Sean, it's not a Fail, though; you talked to her, and it went well.
All my relationships have been with people I met through other people I knew. I think dating is like looking for a job - they say never miss a networking opportunity!
This is where I mention I'm not good at looking for a job, either. And I have a pretty wide circle of friends, but that hasn't produced any results.
And while I appreciate the love and support of my friends, I do not believe for a second that "it will happen," because the world just doesn't work like that.
Sean, I know of a way for you to meet some wonderful women. But I do not think you will take me up on it. Volunteer at some kind of program for developmentally disabled adults (or kids). Stick around long enough to get to know the staff there, well enough to be able to tell which of them are on the take or just there to do the bare minimum to collect a paycheck. Ignore those. The ones who are left will be amazing, caring, passionate, creative people with excellent senses of humor - some of the best people on the planet. And some of them will be single females.
