El

Finally. It happened. I went out with "El".

Yeah, I have been talking to him for QUITE some time now...I was a little nervous about going out with him (shhh, Shelley, don't you say a word!)

I have been giving him such a hard time. He says I have an attitude the size of Texas, but, he likes it for some odd reason. He thinks I am difficult...Do you think that too? Hmm...I don't see myself as difficult...well, maybe occassionally.

We went to dinner, I made him choose the place. We sat and talked for a couple of hours.

I like him. I really like him. He's taller than me when I wear heels. That's definately a plus.

Now, well, until this afternoon, I was going to write nothing but good things about him...then...yeah, it happened...

Let me first say...I would like to meet, just once, a man that doesn't require me to turn into his mother, or his secretary, or a real-life palm within two weeks!!!Seriously, I don't have kids, and I don't get paid to remind people, especially men, of where they need to be, when they need to be there, and who they need to be there with! GRRRRRRR...this angers me...The last couple of guys I have seriously thought about, well, they have turned into people who forget alot. My thing is, don't say it unless ya mean it. Realize this: Palm pilots work well, the schedule fucntion on cell phones work, calendars work, and oh, yeah, Office Depot has a wide selection of Day Runners...all kinds of sizes, colors, materials--leather, cloth, you name it, most any kind to suit your needs, dating, business, birthdays, you name it...

Well, El said something to me about getting together later this week. Well, he had mentioned a while back he would like to go to church with me sometime. I am down with that. Well, I asked him if he could meet me on Wed for church...he said sure...Fastforward to today. He asks me if I know this particular restuarant. I said "sure, I go there often..." I asked why and he replied, "I am meeting a buddy there tomorrow at 4:30" WHAT????? How could this be? We JUST made plans last night...

As I was telling Heidi this story, she said, "Maybe he forgot?" Nope. I am unwilling to make that excuse for him. I certainly can't muster up any mercy for men and silly their excuses lately. Why should I? I can't think of any good reason to...

Here is what I am expecting out of people: DO WHAT YOU SAY YOU ARE GOING TO DO!!!
