Uncategorized So I have been dating this guy (another non, another post). I decided to take him to an event that was mixed with some industry friends and some civilian friends. That which include the always fabulous crew of The Alleged Ringleader, ShamWow and Lilo. It was going to be a whole lot of people, but you gotta be put to the test sometime right! And I have to know how you can handle/get along with these people in order to continue. If you can’t get along with this group then it will never work! Well, first of all the day/night was awesome! We all had lots of fun cause with that crowd it’s hard not too. But back to the matter at hand. The new guy, Confusion (cause that’s what he has been), had alot on his plate that day, but I didn’t tell him that. I kinda fed him to the lions without warning…opps. Champ (a great guy I had dated) was going to be there and a few guys that I had hooked up with. So, it slipped my mind to mention these…sue me. I knew that if Confusion asked, I would tell the truth. Why make more awkward out of an already awkward situation. So, the day is going good with a few complaints from Confusion on why we are not on the beach when we are at the beach….Cause we are too busy drinking in a bar! DUH!
A few hours into our bar adventures we all head to someone’s hotel room to freshen up/drink more. Well, in this one room happens to be… Miss Communication, The Alleged Ringleader, ShamWow, Lilo, The Champ, Confusion, Myself and some others. At one point I am sitting outside with The Champ and Confusion. I head back inside to talk to Miss Communication about something. As we are talking I believe we both have our ear on the conversation that is going on outside. And then we hear it. We hear the arm wrestle challenge that Confusion gives The Champ. WTF? FTW and FML! all in one simple sentence!!! Read more…

Adventures In Internet Dating OMG! I realized that I have not blogged about the infamous Announcer from my internet dating. So this date took place a while back, but is still sooo fresh in my mind…
I met the Announcer on an internet site. We chit chatted and talked about meeting up. We finally decided on a date, time and place (he came to me). We talked on the phone a couple times and we were both excited about meeting up. So, I get all dressed up (duh!), but still keep it casual looking and drive (practically around the corner, yessss!) to where we decided to meet for dinner. I recognized him right off the bat and judging by his face… I did a good job at getting ready, haha! Anyways, he pulls something out of his pocket and it’s a little stuffed monkey. ***Quick back story*** One day he told me he was going to the zoo with his roommate and his roommates kid and I was quite jealous. So he brought me something from the zoo since I couldn’t go. Awww…so nice right?!
We sit down to eat. Get some apps, drinks and dinner. We actually keep up good convo and exchange some nice smiles. He had a really nice smile. He was a cute guy and I was enjoying my view. We finish up our night, both ignoring our back up phone calls…haha. You know the phone call you have your friend make and if you answer you suddenly have some “emergency” that you need to run off to. Haha. I do find out that he is quite the partier, but I was ok with that. He walks me to my car and we say good night. No kiss, just a hug.
I get home and realize that I am glowing. I have a great rest of the night and actually talk to him again that night because he called to say what a good time he had. We talk off and on for the rest of the week. The weekend is coming and I have people coming over. I invited the Announcer ahead of time and he said that he would come. I was totally excited.

Adventures In Internet Dating I would just like to know at what age do they offer neutering to men? Some of the messages that I get on the dating sites, not to mention the way some men act in everyday life, are just ridiculous. Tell me this…Why would I want to respond, let alone date you if it seems like I’m not even someone you are that interested in? Yes, obviously you are interested cause you messaged me, but if you act so nonchalant about it, what’s the rush in me getting back to you.
***NEWSFLASH***: Women like to feel wanted. Desired. Yes I know that you probably message 20 different girls a day, but at least act like I may have been the only one. Otherwise, really, what’s the point. And if I’ve somehow made you feel the need to tuck it in an email and we haven’t even spoke or met yet, trust me, you don’t want to meet me. But let me know when you grow a pair.
Here are some of those emails. No BS. No balls:
Him: I just thought you seemed like someone i’d like to learn more about. If you feel like a chat just hit me back, otherwise its no biggie. Hope all is well.
-Well since it’s no biggie and we are in no rush hit me back up when you grow a pair.
Him: Hello…Just thought i would drop you a line since i saw you checked out my profile, you are beautiful!
Me: Aww, thank you and Hi =)
Him: Your very welcome!
-Uhhhh. Ok. Guess we are done with that conversation. So, when are you gonna grow a pair?
Him: Hey there. My friend told me about this site and I decided to try it out to meet new people or maybe that special someone. Anyways, was looking at some of my possible matches and saw your pic. I think
you have a very beautiful smile and hope to get a chance to talk to you sometime in the future to get to know each other.
-Please man up that you joined the site of your own free will. Just like me. Now please…Grow a pair. Read more…

So, back when I first started the internet dating I gave ALL guys from all walks of life a chance. If it had a penis and looked cute I would message him back. Why not? That’s what I’m here for right? What could be the harm in just a friendly hello?? Famous last words, I know. I quickly learned my lesson and have since changed my settings (which still doesn’t stop the 25 and younger guys from messaging, but at least the inbox sends them and me a “Hey this guy is YOUNG” message…haha). Most guys have got the hint, but there is one in particular that still pops up now and again.
In the beginning we exchanged IM screen names because well, let’s face it, it’s easier than emailing back and forth. Through constant IM’ing, on his part (damn that guy can type/text forever!), I realized that this guy was way too young for me and even with his REPEATED “I don’t like girls my age. I’m just not into all that party and crazy lifestyle anymore. I want a girl that knows where she is going in life and is ready to settle down.” Slow down there kiddo. I get the point. I’m just not your girl. Sorry, but I have to listen to my mom when she says

Uncategorized FML. Let me begin by what a freakin’ hell of a day today has been. So, I thought it would be an awesome idea to go see a chiropractor while I was out of town. No, nothing was hurting, but I love a good back cracking. So, I get my little massage and adjustment and feel fabulous. At least for the next few days. Come about 3 days later and my back starts feeling a bit sore. Normal right? I knew that it would be a bit sore for a few days, no big whoop. Now about 2 more days past that I am in PAIN! My back is killing me. I hit up my weekly pilates class and instantly feel better for the rest of the day. I go about my day. Ride my bike along the beach with a friend and what not. The next day I can barely move!!! I’m almost positive I have a pinched nerve. FML!!!
I look up a doctor on my new insurance, call the number and they say I can just walk in. Awesome! I practically crawl to my car (yes at this point it’s BAD, real bad!). I get there and realize that I have been sent to an urgent care. FML, that’s like $50 more. Oh, well. I really need to take care of this and can’t wait. I fill out my paperwork, standing up mind you cause I can’t even fathom sitting down and getting back up. I wait for them to call me and take my time getting from person to person. I can’t even imagine what I looked like to people there, haha. I get into the doctors room, talk to the nurse for a bit (not really sure why cause it always seems like the doctor only asks you the same exact questions. Honestly, what’s the point!) So, then the doctor comes in and start his 20 question (or more like the same 20 questions). During the interrogation he asks if there is any chance I could be pregnant. To which my only answer that I could come up with at the time was…”Isn’t there always a possibility?” I mean come on really. What does that have to do with my back??? Ohhhhhh, the xrays. Duh. No, I’m good…I think. Read more…

Uncategorized I have a dear friend named Mr. Sunshine (you have seen him on the blog). He is a straight male in his late 20’s and happens to give the best advice on decoding the many penises in my life! Since he has started giving me advice … it has really made things clearer for me … when I take said advice. Ha! That’s the other part of the battle …
Any whoo! I asked him if he would write a few blogs answering in is “oh so honest, not always what I want to hear, always accurate way” …. Some questions from the ladies! So ask away either via the comments section or to be anonymous send them to whoremotions@gmail.com
I can’t promise you will get the answer you want to hear or something fluffy and PC like you do from Cosmo, but I can promise he will be accurate. And isn’t that what we want? Some downright honest answers about how the man’s mind works!
Fire away ladies ….

Uncategorized (This is the follow up post to “The Tryout Date that lead to a Double Booking”)
My 1st date with Cute New Guy had gone pretty good … But so were my other dates with the Sexy Friend, like REALLY good. I was actually hitting it off well … with both of them. Hmmmmm decisions, decisions. I decided I’ll hang out with both until I know for sure who I like. After all I’ve only been on a few dates with each of them.
Last week Cute New Guy invites me out to his area to try some new restaurant for our third date. I head out to BFE looking cute, parking 9 blocks away and having to make a hike up a hill in heels just to get to his place. Note to self: This guy maybe geographically undesirable … OK totally undesirable! His parking options BLOW! Read more…

Uncategorized 3 weekends ago I headed out to dinner with a group of friends. Well to be honest this was a “date try out”. You see I have a guy friend who I’ve known for a long time, in fact he dated an old friend of mine several years back. There was always an attraction that we seemed to avoid … for that very reason. Neither of us has spoken to her in ages, so we kind of decided to try a date on for size. But in a group setting to be safe and I think we were both nervous about being tacky.
This is the first date I was nervous for in a long time! I drive up to the restaurant where I will be joined by my date and 10 of our friends. My date and I live in very different areas and I was about 15 minutes early. As I’m getting out of my car I see a cute guy who I have never met! Now I’ve met everyone in my circle of friends and quickly make my way over. Hey! I was still on free time the date didn’t start for 15 min and my date wasn’t there yet. So I’m making the rounds and the new guy starts chatting me up. Hmmmmm … how am I gonna pull this off. Read more…
