My lunch date stood me up for our first meet, even after confirming day before yesterday. I see that he's looked at my profile today, but failed to show up or call. I waited 15 minutes in the restaurant and then 5 more outside (which is 10 minutes longer than I should have!). So, the Songwriter bites the dust. I had a dinner date, as a first meet, with someone else, but he, too, bailed. With an emailed explanation about his fathers' illness, which may be true, but I'm just a bit cynical right now. I haven't responded to either situation and won't. And while I don't normally ascribe to retail therapy, I went to the mall and bought two darling pair of shoes (on sale!) and a new work suit for a presentation that I'm giving at the end of October.
I can't imagine why they go to the trouble, only to flake out.

That stuff (the bailing out, excuses, etc.) is a phenomenon I do not yet get...Maybe I will hanging around OLD a little longer. It would be strange in the "real world", but OLD isn't the real world most of the time, I can see. ACK! LOL! ;)

P.S. Great shopping! :)

Yes, but look at the great new clothes you got! ;o)
I was actually in a terrible mood yesterday morning at work - very frustrated. Went shopping a lunchtime and bought a new purse. Remarkable how much better I felt for the rest of the day! (But now, thinking about it, I could have seen my therapist twice for the money I paid for the purse! ;o)
