Well I have no real answers for you yet about Jethro. He texted me throughout the afternoon an array of things saying he was thinking about me and he hoped I wasn’t mad at him and that my feelings hadn’t changed.

We spoke briefly and basically his reasons for his “weirdness” were that he’s feeling cash strapped at the moment and like he wouldn’t’ be able to take me out on all these dates he wanted to. Seems really out of the blue because we’ve only hung out twice and did things that didn’t cost any money so I’m not sure where this idea that I expect expensive dates comes from.

We started to talk about this “party girl” perception he seems to have developed based on pictures he’s seen on Facebook and in my house. I got a little irritated talking about this and pointed out to him 1 – that most of the pictures are from last year and 2 – newsflash, girls take pictures when we get dressed up and go out; it’s not like I’m gonna post/hang pics of myself lounging on the couch in my yoga pants watching TV.

I had just finished a particular eloquent version of the line above when his phone cut off. I tried to call him back but it rolled straight to voicemail so I did my best to text vent to the girls and then I just went to bed. This morning he texted me that he was sorry but his battery died and that he wanted to continue our conversation. I told him that was fine but I wasn’t doing it over the phone.

I have yet to hear back from him. In other related news, I declared that I think all guys have a form of Asperger’s syndrome – NOTE to you sensitive nellies out there I’m not making fun of kids/people with this actual disorder or any form of autism or mental impairment so get off your high horse. If you’re that sensitive this is probably not the blog for you. Feel free to check out highlights.com or reader’s digest.com and don’t let the blog door hit you on the way out.

Seriously, look at the symptoms and tell me if you don’t see a correlation…
  • Lack or difficulty judging appropriate social conduct
  • Anger management problems
  • Lack of empathy
  • Inability to listen to others
  • Inflexible thinking
  • Repetitive routines provides feelings of security
  • Stress when their routine suddenly changes
  • Inability to think in abstract ways
  • Specialized fields of interest
  • Visual thinking
I’ll keep you in the loop.

Online Dating Duds

-
 After the Return of Sawyer debacle I went back to online dating and discovered a string of totally unsuitable and unappetizing guys but they gave me some good laughs. There was a friend of Peabody’s who remembered meeting me but I didn’t remember meeting him.   He was super conservative and a Trump lover but I went out with him out of spite just hoping it would get back around to Peabody.   We had a very unremarkable date in the small town I live in – again hoping someone would see me and get back to Peabody (I’m nothing if not a little petty).   We talked and he gave me a sob story about having a legit crazy ex-wife and wanted a lot of details about Peabody.   Gossip travels fast in this small town I suppose.   We kissed a little at the end of the night and it wasn’t bad but it also wasn’t anything to want to take your pants off about.   Then there was the vet, as in veterinarian, who was so old fashioned he didn’t have a cell phone – at least th...

Five months later

Here we are amost five months later. Jules is happily married and coping with Russell leaving the island. Gywn is bursting with pregnancy - shes having a boy! -and counting down the days till her hubby comes home. And Miranda, well Miranda is...happy. As strange of an emotion as she can imagine, Miranda is happy. Peabody has pulled out all the stops and completely committed himself to her. It's about damn time lol. Maybe fairy tales can cone true after all? Fate has taught Miranda to be cautious but she can't help feeling cautiously optimistic at the moment.

Won't You Be My Neighbor?

-
It's another day in the neighborhood, won't you please be my neighbor? Ok, I date myself but I loved Mr. Rogers. So my new hood is rolling along nicely...I came home today to my new dog greeting me at my car, kids on my porch, and Gavin getting up to get me a glass of wine as I walked into the door. Then, the man did homework with my daughter. Homework is my least favorite time of the day and he totally rocked it. It was hilarious listening to him with her, but super cute too. I'll say it again...it doesn't suck to be me right now. I had to give Gavin some tough love tonight though and admittedly he took it better than expected. He continues to whine about what a horrible gf the gf is...I finally laid it out. I told him that I thought 99.9% of his current problems could in fact be traced back to her, that she's a toxic human being, etc, etc. (He did kind of ask...) I explained that I can actually remove myself and say this in an objective manner (hence why I...
