My trip to tennessee was canceled due to my foot. bummer.... iwas looking forward to it ...oh well.. there will be a next time.


Tall Guy calls everyday... once at lunch.... i call him back on my dinner break.... then he calls right before bedtime. he's hooked, i think. I enjoy the sweet things he says to me.... which made me think that he'd stop saying those things after getting too comfortble with each other.... then, i'd feel neglected and bored.... lol... listen to me being all negative... it's my fear of commitment issues...


I'm afraid to get attached to someone only to have things fall apart... but right now, TG says the sweetest things to me... He said, he misses me... what? i think, it's only been a couple days... He invited me out this weekend but this is the weekend with all five children... so, we're going to hang out tonight. Even after my foot heals, he'll need to carry me around just cuz it's fun... lol.


As for the cop, i never heard back from him... i shouldn't have to call him back right... the ball was in his court and he didn't call back.... I'm going to be going to vabeach to pick up the children Friday night.... the night we were suppose to get a cup of coffee... I'm disappointed but i won't call.... if he's trying to blow me off, i'd

Loony life sounds so wonderful for you. It seems like everything is coming together. The new job with the fabulous paycheque, the new home, the new city, a couple of new faces and a new 'special' guy!

thank you... and yes, i do feel wonderful... I was just telling TG that i'm not usually an excited person, but i'm very excited about life these days.


Everyday is a great day to be alive.

The guy you are seeing sounds sweet.. everyday texting used to freak me out... but i'm beginning to like getting calls everyday (and throughout the day) from TG... Also, I don't have good luck when picking guys.. so my first thought is "if I'm attracted to you, then there must be something wrong with you."..lol... like alcoholic or sarcastic pessimist jerk or controlling... etc... So i'm suspicious really of anyone I'm attracted to....


This is where my one-day-at-a-time theory comes in to play.... because people do reveal themselves over time.. I just need to stay alert to the "signs".... the last guy to call everyday was Ozzy.. and when he told me about his ex getting a protective order... that was a red flag.... and he didn't

I am glad Tall Guy is still calling and hoping everything will get better and better and reassure you with time - take your time and enjoy each moment.

I don't think you have as much of a "commitment" issue as you do a "disappointment" issue - you don't want to fall for a guy and then be disappointed or hurt. And that is natural - who wants to fall for someone and then get hurt. I think if you take your time and keep it casual and see what happens over time then you will be more reassured.

Sorry to hear about the foot - hopefully it gets better fast!

I know i jumped in quickly physicallly, but i'm taking my time emotionally... TG said last night.. "I feel this is the start of something good." And I only replied.. "possibly"... honestly, my impression right now is that it will be a short but heated fling... but ya never know. If he continues to be this sweet and fun to hang around, i'll keep him around... it is still only one day at a time...

You make me laugh R~....


>>TOO great<< uh oh... that's what i'm worried about... At his word, he's never been in jail and doesn't have a criminal record.. that's a good start... says, he has a very long traffic violation list though... speeding...


TG just loves the way we met.. he said he loves telling the story... and said, perhaps we wouldn't have met if you didn't break your foot... hmm, i replied, you're right, it would have just ended with a hand shake.... And he recalled how we kissed for the first time in the emergency room .. and how we laid next to each other on the hospital bed while waiting for the xray results.. and how he went to find me a snack.... walked all over to find a vending machine and then bought one of everything good since he didn't know what i liked... too funny.


He also keeps recalling how he approached me the first time... that he thought for sure i had a boyfriend but he just had to say hello... how sweet....


so, we all know i was bonkers for Leo.. leo was not sweet.. he was an egomaniac and kinda rude to me.. but i was still so attracted to his good looks.. with TG it isn't that way... he has great looking green eyes, but if he wasn't so sweet, i wouldn't be this interested. We just get along so well just hanging out...


i'll keep you posted...
