Waiting on line for Shakespeare in the Park tickets

So there goes posting every day. I will try to post an entry every day and maybe stagger when it’s posted.

So I am waiting in line for Shakepeare in the Park tickets. 

I don’t know if I should try on makeup. I bought eyeliner, mascara, lip gloss. I will check out the Queen lipstick that G recommended at space nk this Saturday. I hope the lipstick is not too expensive.

I am tired. I will take a nap at my office from 3-6pm. It’s not so busy so that’s good.

So I am still dating Carl. It’s moving pretty slowly but I see him two to three times a week. For Starbucks dates and/or movie/museum dates. I am a bit bored with Carl’s choice of dates so when I move out to Astoria I may start dating other people unless I do more fun things with Carl. I am even loathe to tell him this because he already knows my stance on that. I will see what my therapist suggests in late August. I may cut him to one session a month. 

I signed up for the Peer-to-Peer Program with NAMI and the next one starts in September. I hope they have room for me. I will learn more about it the next time I go to NAMI. Not tonight as I have Shakespeare in the Park tickets. I hope I don’t fall asleep like the time I went with Carl. I will try to sleep and take a nap at my office and lay my head to rest there.


OK so 3 hrs, 15 minutes to go. Once it reaches 10am, 2 hrs just fly by.  I want to see it with Carl so maybe I will say I didn’t go today and wait for a day he can make it. That way if I miss it, I will have already seen it. I am scheduled to do a dinner with him so I can use my groupon but that doesn’t seem likely as he hasn’t given me a date for that.

So the above was written in Central Park. I have gotten the two tickets and can't wait for the performance. I don't think I've ever seen King Lear performed live before so it'll be new. I need to stay awake so I should be napping now. 

All my work for today has been finished, waiting to hear back in regards to some client matters but I haven't heard back so I will lay my head to rest for a couple hours.

OK until tomorrow! Happy Hump Day!

Monday Day 1 of the Post Every Day of the Month

So I will post a blog entry every day this coming month to see if I can record my life happenings.

They may be brief status updates.

I made a list of guys who I have crushes on. They range from JL (Jets meetup) to CC (therapist) to DG (wood buff). There's a more extensive list for the famous guys who I have crushes on.

I wanted to expand upon looks in this post. My mom says I judge a book by its cover and it's true in some aspects of my life. Like in any tennis or team competition I always root for the better-looking guy or team. This is kind of subjective. My friend FO for example doesn't like Latinos but prefers Black guys. I am the opposite. I prefer Latino/Hispanic/White (Caucasian) over Black/Indian/Asian guys. I have never been on a single date with an Asian guy. I did date EC who was half Indian, but he looked Mediterranean.

So yeah I need to look deeper. The only reason I am tolerating Carl and his busy schedule is because I find him very attractive but not too hot. I could never date a 9 or higher guy. I think Carl ranges from an 8-8.5. I think my own looks are 7.5-8. In my prime I think I was a 8.5. But those days are over.

I need to lose weight in my tummy area. I am 106.20 lbs, up from my all-time low weight of 100. I need to stop binge-eating in the middle of the night. For the sake of my teeth alone if that warrants a change faster. I was diagnosed with 5 small cavities in my dentist appointment last week. I owe the dentist $420 for a cleaning and 5 cavities. I will get them repaired on Friday. All my money I lament goes to the IRS and my dentist. I think I may have funded my dentist a trip to Hong Kong!

OK back to work. G the handyman of the bldg is coming by in 5 minutes to hang the plaques from my wall. The walls of my cubicle don't look too sturdy so not sure if it will be successful. We shall see!

Carl Update and Other Happenings

So one of my good friends advised me to hedge my bets with Carl. Because he hasn't met any of my friends/family, I haven't met any of his friends or family.

So I confronted Carl last night via our normal mode of communications, AIM chat. He addressed them but not to my satisfaction. He will meet E&B for dinner in July or August before she moves to SF. And I will meet him at his workplace, meet his family in Long Island (just brother and sister) and perhaps see his apartment/roommate.

I'm seeing another one of my good friends Fay today for brunch. I will see what she thinks of the matter.

I also am seeing my therapist this coming Tuesday and possibly again next week before he goes on a 3 week vacation.

I am thinking of doing the Peer-to-Peer NAMI program to be peered with a fellow individual with my mental illness disease. I don't have any friends with the disease. I do go to a support group there. I am thinking of making a small contribution of $25 since I use their support services. The peer to peer will be a buddy system to make sure I don't fall back or relapse.

Anyways, I will post a Carl update as soon as I know what happens between the two of us. If I break up with Carl I will not move from my parents. If I continue dating and seeing Carl and it gets more and more serious then I will move to Astoria in October/November/December or even as late as January.
