Ahhh Monday's

Monday, June 21, 2004 01:08 PM

Back at work again today. Seems pretty chill so far. Kinda nice, to know that this week should be ending in a good night out on the town.....AGAIN! Unfortunately I'll be getting another year added to my age in the process. Ugh birthdays, that just means you have to get that much more serious about everything in general. And in light of all seriousness, I noticed that my cousin is getting married soon. Now that ought to be fun, I'd love to see him toasted, i'm sure he knows how to party. But then comes those all too awkward questions from family members luckily most of them are almost dead! Questions like, "So do you have a girlfriend?".....I then glance over to my left and right, and reply...."No." Hopefully I won't be living in the bay area by then or else they probably might think i'm batting for the other team! I dislike how somehow some people without knowing make other people feel awkward. What is so wrong with being single....so I didn't buy the first car i test drove. What is the big deal. I hate to use that analogy (automobile), but it's somewhat true from the non-physical point of view. I mean one could look at the mileage on a vehicle and relate that to a numerous amount of things you look for in that almost ideal member of the opposite sex (read same sex if you are of course batting for the other team). It just makes some logical sense to relate it to cars in my view probably cause I'm a male. Perhaps females use shoes or something. I'd hate to come off chauvinistic; but I'm just trying to keep it real. I'm sure some females wouldn't mind that whole car analogy either, and I'm sure some guys (batting for the other team?) could relate to the whole shoe thing. Enough with the correctness bit, and more with the awkward feelings stuff. So what do I reply with when this feeling of awkwardness occurs? Most certainly.."Well I'm dating, and work has been keeping me really busy." When in fact it would probably really be something like....well I want to live my life, if I so happen to meet someone that can hold my attention span, then you would most likely see her here, obviously you don't see her here, so unfortunately I'm "car shopping." Ha.
