It seems that I have opened the proverbial Pandora's box. And no, I do not know any women named Pandora! That is not the box I am talking about. Shame on you for thinking that and making me explain it! You guys are a bunch of perverts! It it just like the first few times I looked at a Playgirl Magazine. I looked at it several times because I can't believe they would have the audacity to publish such artistic beauty of a man's perfectly.....tanned and toned skin with.......rippling stomach and pectoral muscles. His strong body in perfect posture as he draped his sweaty, shimmering body across the bed with red satin sheets. Biceps bulging and perfectly shaved underarms. You can just imagine the feel of the strong firm loins in the dark and the rough.....uh...ummm,.....sorry, I got side tracked. What was I saying? oh yeah! I remember, I have been canceling dates (sorry guys) because my last year of school is really a lot of work and I have four art exhibits coming up in the next couple of months.
You are right, that alone isn't enough to make me cancel dates but it is a lot of work. I have to give them a good excuse that they will believe. Two men continue to tell me what great husbands they would be and one actually asked me to marry him. OUY! (That is French for headache, I think.) One is too old, the other is too young. Then there is another that doesn't stop calling and emailing, and instant messaging, and commenting, and twittering, and face booking, and internet 'smiling'. SHIT! What the hell happened to the 1980's when you could just send a friend over to tell them you don't want to see him again.
However, I have received very good advice from a close confidant who is always there to help us with our man trouble. Am I right Vicky? Theresa suggested that I very politely tell him that I was "dating exclusively". I said, "I can't say that, it would be a lie." Then my creative and slightly sinister sweet friend added, "exclusively dating everyone except him". Ahhhh... She is clever. You develop that type of cleverness and exquisite witt after being married for a while.
Do to the excessive amount of work for my classes and getting ready for these gallery shows, I have been kind of busy. Men for some reason expect you to be available to them anytime at a moments notice. Don't get me wrong, I am looking for a great guy that both of us feel the same way about each other. Buuuuttttttt, some how, I am just not finding it right now. Which is fine for me because it gives me time to focus on school and continue to meet new people, some interesting, and some not so interesting. That is the reason I have backed down a bit on the 'dating lifestyle', it becomes a lot of work when you are going on three and four dates a week, and trying to keep all of them straight. A couple of times I made a few mistakes. I have a terrible memory. I should put my dance card on power book these days. So for my own sanity, I am limiting it down to one or two dates a week. That is why you haven't seen me blog recently. But I will try to do better at keeping you informed.
