Another Chapter In The Same Book
https://lapenseuse.wordpress.com/2012/08/26/558
Another Chapter In The Same Book. 8220;I’m lonely. The loneliness is palpable.” – Carrie Bradshaw. Go Ahead And E-mail Me. August 26, 2012. I was reading this book, recently, where the main character mused that she was quickly becoming one of “those” women — someone who either waited too long or settled too fast. Even at the ripe old age of 34, my old school mother is still agreeing to set-ups on my behalf. She doesn’t even bother asking to see if I’m okay with it because the offers to se...What bothered...

of Girl and World: April 2011
http://shinidema.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Of Girl and World. Monday, April 25, 2011. Time for a jig. College Ed and I are hanging out again tomorrow night. We’ve been emailing back and forth since Sunday, after he volunteered some details regarding his weekend in Rhode Island in an email. I took that to mean he wanted to start a conversation and took things into my own hands. I shot back a quick email with some mundane details and ended it with “Sounds like a busy week for you too. His response: “Hanging out would be good. Links to this post.

Of Girl and World. Monday, February 20, 2012. He reached out to shake my hand when we met for our first date. 8220;Hi, I’m Alec.”. Hi, I'm Seine," I said out loud. To myself, I thought, “Wow, I suppose he did say he’s a really tall dude.” It’s hard to conceptualize from an online profile just how tall 6’5” is. In person, I realized that it is borderline scary-tall. I was suddenly feeling jittery and nervous. Walking home from the coffee shop, I called my friend and sheepishly explained how I met an amazi...

of Girl and World: Care
http://shinidema.blogspot.com/2011/06/care.html
Of Girl and World. Wednesday, June 1, 2011. A big group of 20 of us went away for the long weekend to a lake cabin in New Hampshire. As these things usually go, I drove a full car of people there and back. On the way up, I had zero excitement. Instead of talking to my whole car of passengers, I wanted to blast indie rock and cry loud sobbing cries from my gut about College Ed. I wanted to slap him and scream, "Just who do you think you are? Only silly boys can come up with silly games like this. We can't...

of Girl and World: May 2011
http://shinidema.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Of Girl and World. Wednesday, May 25, 2011. And the neurosis sets in. College Ed dated his ex for six years, which was, verbatim from his mouth, "probably four years too long." Then, as if he regretted the implications of what he had just said, he added, "But don't get me wrong, that's not to say she isn't fantastic.". Present tense: is fantastic. He said no, but then added, "Well, I am. Well, she wants us to get married.". And I pushed a bit more, "And how do you feel about that? So, his ex-girlfriend o...

of Girl and World: The importance of timing?
http://shinidema.blogspot.com/2011/04/importance-of-timing.html
Of Girl and World. Sunday, April 24, 2011. The importance of timing? College Ed and I have a mutual friend, Lee, who is visiting this weekend. His flight was to arrive in Boston late Thursday night, and we all planned to hang out together by going to a party at a club. The crowd: College Ed's business school friends. College Ed shouted back, "Yes.". Lee made a face of disbelief, "WHY? College Ed laughed, paused, and then offered, "I guess I'm picky.". Am I drunk and reading too much into things? He is sm...

of Girl and World: December 2010
http://shinidema.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Of Girl and World. Thursday, December 23, 2010. I might have a job (if I ever graduate). They told me yesterday that they'd like to give me an offer, but with end of the year administrative craziness, the company board won't be able to approve a job offer until January. After the approval, HR will draw up an official offer for me. You're also addicted to boys," he said. Where'd that come from? I thought we were talking about jobs and finishing grad school? But it's true. I am addicted to boys. He suffers...
