Looks like Ozzy pulled a disappearance act... we were suppose to go out this past Thursday... I wasn't feeling like going out anyway and then received a text message saying he needed to cancel (due to work) but was open for Saturday. I replied "No prob. I'm feeling under the weather myself".... And I haven't heard from him since.... nothing on Saturday. I did not call or text him either... so i guess I pulled a disappearance, too. But he's the guy so i think it was his job to call or text me about Saturday and not my responsibility to call him.

In other news: Had a going away party for a fellow short timer coworker... Lunchamigo was there and we flirted BIG TIME... it's all in fun i'm sure... For my new job, I have to take a drug screen and just so happen the forms came on Friday... So, I had to take the test Saturday morning.... I was disappointed that I couldnt drink the champaign at the party Friday night... I wanted to be safe rather than sorry... But the crew convinced me to have one glass and drink extra water. Lunchamigo kept tempting me and saying "have one more. trust me." It was a good party and that lead to a conversation about MY going away party. Yay!!! A party for me.. will probably be two weeks from now... not sure about all the details... I'm sure I'll just have to dance on the tables one last time... or will it be?

Then Leo booty called me after 2 am Saturday night... but get this... he said, can you bring a friend for my roommate to "meet". After I said "no", he said, oh sorry then... saying it would be akward if i came over and his roommate didnt have anyone... BUT i was disappointed. First because Leo is sooo cute and hot.. and secondly to really find out how much disrespect he has for women. I don't foresee us getting together before I leave. NEXT!

Sunday night was the Matchbox 20 concert with my dd14 and ds13. We had a BLAST!!!! It was their first concert. I just loving making memories that I know will last a lifetime.

Tonight is Monday night... which is free pool and karaoke. I plan to go, drink, and perhaps get some new numbers.

Sorry Ozzy did a no show. Any guesses to maybe why? Did he know you were moving? Or did he seem uncomfortable with you having kids?

You certainly have the right attitude - maybe Ozzy will surface with some stressed out work reason - and wow for taking the kids to that concert!! THAT is a memory they will have for a long time and you are a cool mom!!

>>Sorry Ozzy did a no show. Any guesses to maybe why? Did he know you were moving? Or did he seem uncomfortable with you having kids?<<

I told him about my move last sunday and his response was "we'll have to have as much fun as we can til you leave." Tuesday night we agreed to do something on Thursday... He suggested that I cook him dinner. and I thought NO WAY not this soon.. I declined and he said, perhaps karaoke. That's more my speed, i thought...

I felt like things were moving too fast and i wasn't ready to stop dating others.. but i didn't say that... maybe he just picked up on that...

So, when he text a cancel on Thursday, I was relieved... but still, i expected to hear from him by Saturday.

As for the children, he seemed okay with that.. he has two of his own (ages 6 and 4).... but he doesn't see them because his ex claimed she felt threatened. Of which he said, i don't know why she said that. That statement made me cautious... people don't say that for no reason. And I told him so... I tried to be very sensitive to his feelings, while being honest about my history with an abusive ex. Not sure if I just came off as having too much emotional baggage?

Either way, i don't feel like calling him.. (or will i tonight after drinking?..lol). It could have been work, he mentioned deadlines in his text on Thurs. I haven't NEXT him, yet.

>>you are a cool mom!!<<

I've been hearing that a lot lately... I'm kinda just myself. Even with my children, I'm the same loony self. I make silly jokes and share crazy stories... I just leave out all mention of dating... But work jokes, i repeat to the teens. Like how I'm always making jokes about my age..

Just today i said. yes, I'm voting tomorrow .. "it's the first time I'm old enough" LOL. They all laughed. Then I said, okay the first PRES Primary election I was old enough to vote in.. Ha Ha Ha.. they all know I'm over 30 but will deny it!!!

Those things are definitely some very red flags! Several things, including the odacity to ask you to cook for him. Maybe he's just testing you to be a booty call. I definitely don't like his excuse for why he can't see his kids. this is the SECOND time you mentioned something a little on the weird side regarding abuser signs in him. I think it's better if you let this one go. He kind of gives me the creeps a little now.
