Next Please

So I took all of your great advice as usual and said sayonara to the Waterhouse guy. After he showed up randomly at my work twice and sent me an email follow up to both visits I finally responded with a not interested email. I sent it earlier today and was expecting some type of awkward and uncomfortable email back but fortunately no news as of yet.

Waterhouse Guy

Thought I would share this story with you ladies to see what you think.

I went out to a bar the other night with a few friends from work. We were sitting at the bar most of the evening chatting with a few people there and half way through the night we ended up sitting at a booth with a couple who were trying to have a first date. Don't ask how we ended up sitting with them and crashing their date but we did. Anyway at the end of the night the guy who was on his date and I exchanged cards and went our separate ways. Again no idea why we exchanged cards. It's been a little over a week and to tell you the truth I completely forgot about him and to this day couldn't pick him out of a table of three.
So the other day I was sitting in my office when one of the staff members called me and said that I had a note from someone who had stopped by. So I went downstairs and the guy had stopped by my WORK!! Immediately thinking great now I have a stalker. Decided not to send him an email (didn't leave a number) and just let it go. Well than the next morning he sends me an email BEFORE I even respond to his invasive stop by to my work. (granted I do work at a tourist destination that plenty of people visit and is a very public place) but still.

Here is a copy of the email that he sent over:

Hey there


Thought I would send you an email to see if you wanted to get cocktails sometime. I was in the neighborhood the other day and then I remembered I still had your card in my wallet. I felt a little bit like a stalker... How well did you know that guy you were with? I saw what you guys did on that street corner!! Haha good stuff. That is what shots and beers on Sunday funday will do to you!

Let me know.

Jeremy


(By the way the street corner reference is not how it sounds!)

My friend thinks that I should send an email and take it for what its worth and see what happens. I think anyone who stops by my work a week after meeting me and emails before I respond could be creepy.

Thoughts?

GIVE AWAY WINNER FINALLY CHOSEN!!

It’s been a very busy week so I haven’t had time to pick a name for the make up giveaway. But I wrote out the names this morning and this BIG WINNER IS POLKA DOTS & PROTEIN BARS!!!! Congratulations!!

Thank you all for participating in my first giveaway and following along on my journey to my first 100 posts!

Sleeping Alone

I moved into my new place exactly one week ago and have been sleeping on my own now for 7 nights straight. Out of those 7 nights I have not slept more than 2 hours without waking up. It’s not noisy in my apartment at all and I never really hear much racket from the city either. I don’t know if it is my way of adjusting to sleeping alone for the first time in my life without having roommates or a boyfriend, but either way this needs to stop immediately! I have had to upgrade my coffee intake from 3 cups to 5 during the day and by early afternoon I am ready to keel over and die! I am still sleeping with the hall light on believe it or not and every little creek and crack throughout the night wakes me up, to the point that last night I actually got out of my warm bed just to look at the living room to make sure nobody was there. I feel like a 5 year old who thinks that there are monsters under the bed or something!

New Apartment and 100th Post

Again I find myself neglecting my bloggy friends and I am REALLY sorry about that. I have had a very busy week the past few days and haven't had time to keep up with my normal routine better yet get to my favorite extras! To catch you up to speed, I have moved out of J's apartment on the north side and into my own place downtown. I have never owned my own apartment before and have either lived at home with my mom, on campus in dorms or with J. So I felt like I needed some time on my own to do it completely for myself and see what happens.

As college graduation approaches for me in the next three months I really began to think about what I want out of life and where I need to be for myself. This move and big change with my relationship with J hasn't been easy, but it feels right. It's very strange to come home to my own place, but it's a good feeling and I love knowing I can do things on my own and know that I am making these decisions for myself and nobody else.

So please stay with me as I try to adjust to being single and trying to find some type of routine in this new phase. Again I'm sorry for the delay in the giveaway, but everything around me is happening so quickly and changing so fast that I haven't had time to find the perfect present!

I'll be sure to post some pictures of my new place later this week and be back on track to keep you up to date with all the new things going on right now.
