Girl Finding Her Way

Babblings, rants and the general nonsense of a 20-something newly admitted attorney trying to find her way

Tired Ramblings On A Tuesday Night… April 29, 2008

1. I like all of the attention I’m getting on here lately. Today (Tuesday) I had over 400 hits!! Seriously!? That’s pretty f’in cool. Granted, I’m sure this will all end once the MA bar results are out and everyone isn’t googling for their sanity. Whatever. I’ll take what I can get! Hopefully some of these new readers stick around.

 

2. The email that I sent to Unofficial earlier was responded to via voicemail. I was at work when he called, and he was just calling to say “Hi” and he apologized for not calling and then said twice to give him “a ring.” It’s funny to me that he apologized for not calling. I just saw him yesterday morning. We rarely talk every day. And twice telling me to call him is cute too. We spoke a bit ago and it was just like “how was your day… etc” chat but nice and I gave him advice on something he’s doing tomorrow and helped him to figure out that he doesn’t have jury duty. He was quite grateful. I think… *think*… that we are definitely progressing. Maybe this means that my being scared is all for naught and that he’s getting there sooner than I thought. I don’t want to get my hopes up though. We talked about doing something either Sunday or Monday (my nights off) and then I said if he wanted to come over after work to let me know. I also told him that I was going to try and give him more space so I don’t distract him from work. He didn’t sound as though he liked that idea. I enjoyed hearing that.

 

3. I’m feeling less and less into Work Crush lately. He kind of bores me now. All this build up and then nothing happens. It’s not worth the effort and, quite frankly, I wouldn’t give up what I have with Unofficial right now for anyone.

 

4. The past week I’ve been up pretty early each day. OK, early for me… so like 9ish. This was mostly due to the move. Today I slept in until 11:00. It was like heaven. AND, I could easily have gotten up earlier but forced myself to sleep a little more knowing how deprived I’ve been. I *think* I may have myself on a normal person sleep schedule almost! This would be great.

 

5. I told Unofficial about how there’s an epidemic at my work. Everyone is getting pregnant. (OK, like 3 people, but still…) He looked me dead in the eyes and said, “You’re on the pill, right?” I laughed. He looked so scared. We both take the precautions necessary for me to not get pregnant, it was funny that he was worried for a second. After I laughed I said something like “Please, it wouldn’t happen don’t worry.” His response, “Fucking knock on something wood!” HAHA. I like him. A lot.

    Sounds like things are going well! That’s awesome.

    You’re such a girl. Totally playing the game. I chuckled when I read this.

    WILL YOU GET YOUR LETTER ALREADY?!

  2. SnarkyRunner Says:

    The pieces seem to be fitting together better lately, yes.

    I AM such a girl. I hate playing games… what is most amusing though is that he’s unaware that’s what’s happening. So cute.

    I KNOW!!!!!!

    i hate games too, but boys can just be so dumb sometimes. i have to admit to using the “i know you’re busy, so i’m not going to bug you” thing myself… sometimes you have to in order to get them to make a little effort, you know? i’m glad he doesn’t like the idea of you not bugging him, yay!

    i have to second random… if you don’t get the letter soon, i’m going to… well, i’m not sure, but i need to know!!! a lot of your hits could be me checking back to see if there is any news. pathetisad, i know!

    I just ran into you blog. Love it! As a current law student you give me hope that even if things don’t turn out the way I have planned it’ll be okay. I’ll be tuning in…

  5. snarkyrunner Says:

    Jennie – Yeah games are stupid but whatever. If I don’t get the letter by Sunday, I’m going to kill people. Seriously.

    Stuffy – Thanks for stopping in. Law school sucks. You’ll be fine in the long run, just remember that most things are temporary unless you make them permanent. I do not envy you right now being in exam time. Good luck!

    I admit I started reading waiting for MA bar results… but now I’m hooked. I really do not want to be rude, but after reading you issues with “Unofficial” that just reminded me of myself… I just kind of wanted to offer some advice/help that completely changed my life: “Hes just not that into you”

    http://www.amazon.com/Hes-Just-Not-That-Into/dp/1416909532

    You can laugh if you want to- but it made me so much happier to respect myself and my friends and I now spend our time having FUN instead of analyzing how to handle guys, what things mean, etc. If he liked you half as much as you liked him, he wouldn’t see other people– and he would make time to see you or call no matter how “busy” he was.

    You sound like a very intelligent successful girl who has a fun life and a lot going for her. You deserve someone who treats you with a little more respect– I completely understand taking things slow, and waiting to get serious until your feelings are “there”… but there is nothing wrong with expecting (demanding?) common courtesy along the way.

    Good luck, and don’t hate me!!

    Headquartergirl – I have read and have been preached that book many a time. I understand and agree with the general ideas. I will say, though, that this situation is much different than the typical. I do not make excuses but I also must point out that what is written on this blog is not the total cumulative of he and I’s relationship. Most times, there are the really exciting and the really disappointing things written on here. Hardly any of the daily in between.

    I do not hate you but I do think that you have jumped ahead of yourself. Rarely does someone who is not IN a relationship fully understand what goes on between the two people who are. Sometimes things get a bit screwy. I do not fully believe in the black and whiteness of that book. There are times of grey and I am ok with that.
