When the Wind Blows

Well lets see here. Whats been happening?

Ah...on Wednesday some interesting things happened. Knowing my present "woes" over someone, my secretary, who is on a mission to find me a wife for some reason, informed me that a co-worker of mine has recently come onto the market again. I should note that I did take notice of her when she began work in January, but never said anything. At any rate, it seems that I came up in conversaion and she referred to me as "so adorable." My interest piqued, I continued to pump her for info. but instead we ended up talking about scotch. At that exact moment, that same certain co-worker droopped in to chat, and as it turns out she likes scotch too. My secretary was thrilled, and so the idea slowly began to form in my head. I should also say here that I decided not to keep the meet on friday, basically to save her mental sanity.

Valentine's Day was quite crazy. Aside from quibbling about meeting a certain someone on friday (again), it turned out to be a good day. Even though I work from outside the office on thursdays, I thought it would be fun to stop by work before I hit up the library and drop off some V-Day sweets for the gang. While there, "adorable" co-worker came into the main office with her dog (a beautiful black lab!!) and started nibbling on the candy. The dog, sweet as can be, sauntered up to me and I started to scratch behind his ears and rub his side. I got down on my haunches to do so, but thats when his owner warned "Uh-oh! Watch out for the lab lean!" Just then, the dog shifted all his weight into my chest and I fell backward on my ass and hit my head on the desk behind me. As I was laughing and rubbing my head, the dog crawled onto my chest and started lapping my face! It was quite the sight lol. Maybe I earned some points with mom?

Yesterday was a little nuts. I was running errands all day with a friend. Had to drop 90 bucks on a new power cable for my laptop too! We went to a restaurant to have a pint or two and discuss my current situation, and I decided that in the end this crap I have been worrying about is useless. Until she decides to leave him, I want no part of a relationship with her. I won't be the cause of her emotional distress, whether its warranted or not. So, I laid down the law and told her we were just friends until she made some decisions. I broker no hope though. On a lighter note, I exchanged a few messages with my co-worker online, and she sounds like a fun person! Oh, and my Golden Eagles pounded Pitt. in college basketball!

Today has been a little lazy. I slept in late as I was up LATE updating a website and have spent the majority of the day so far on the phone with a few old friends with whom I needed to catch up with. I guess its time to get some actual work done. Maybe more later-
