Well well well, it's time for an update. And finally I have something remotely interesting to say! Well I'll let you all be the judge of that.
Sillyness:
Still dicking around on OKcupid. It's pretty fun and I've met a couple cool people on there. The tests are hilarious. Apparently I am 81% likely to survive a zombie enounter. If I were on Star Trek TNG, I'd be chief O'Brien. And if I were on family guy I'd be Brian(the talking dog).
Sign up and put me on your buddy lists! I demand friends. Anyway, moving right along.
Sad and Angriness:
There's a female friend of mine who I've been trying to hang out with, even hook up with lately. She has always had a problem with unreliability; she will make plans a couple days in advance, PROMISE me that she will show up, and then at the last possible second she will text me to cancel as if it was no big deal.
So last night I told her I was sick of being treated like that and even though I value her as a friend, I would not put up with it any longer. It was an ultimatum more or less. I was friendly about it and never raised my voice, and made sure she understood why I felt that way. But I also made it clear that I can't take that kind of disrespect anymore. So we made "definite plans" for tonight.
It was kind of a test to see if she could actually follow through.
She failed miserably! I left her a message at 4pm today, to make sure we were still "on" for tonight. No answer. I called again at 6:30. Still no answer.
So she texts me a few minutes later, saying sorry I can't go. As if it's no big deal.
So I called her and she didn't pick up. I left her a message saying basically... "I tried being patient, I tried being direct, but you're never going to change. I can't rely on you and I won't play your games anymore. So get your shit together and learn some consideration for other people's time and feelings, or don't bother calling me anymore".
That was an hour ago and I haven't heard back. Oh well, fuck her. It's a shame to lose a friend but I need some amount of certainty.
A nice ego boost, and who knows what else?
Today I went to eat at Cracker Barrel with my roommate. It was supposed to be a scouting mission; I would see if the place was worthy of me working there.
The second we walked in I was like "NO." LOL
It was full of very old people, and my customer detector went on red alert. This is not the kind of place where I will get good tips. Anyone else who works in the restaurant industry will know what I mean. Also their food is very cheap. Good for the customers, but not good for the servers.
So anyway, me and my friend were by contrast, the hottest guys that had ever set foot in this place! LOL
The waitresses kept coming by to check us out. I thought I was imagining it at first but then our waitress(a friendly middle aged lady) told us that it was true! That made my day.(especially since I do NOT get that reaction often)
So I asked her to send the one waitress "amy" over to talk to us and she did! How awesome is that. We talked to her for a little while and she seemed really sweet. Beautiful smile and very pretty in general. She gave me her #! Again, how awesome is that!!!

i actually don't have a very exciting job at the moment. the 'work' that i love is the act of going to and doing work. it makes me feel worthwhile. and productive.

I have friends like that, unfortunately. I just keep in mind that they're not someone I can rely on, that they may cancel on me at any point... so I try not to get my hopes up or anything.
