spring break 2010

yoyoyo.
look! it's 11:54 pm on a sunday night and not only am i blogging, but I'M STILL AWAKE! that can only mean one thing...no school tomorrow. woohoo spring break. actually I am going into school in the morning to help clean a closet, but that won't require me to be too alert/awake/aware. besides, some old school Grey's Anatomy is on and i've forgotten how good it used to be.
so anyway...
last night i saw the love of my life, mr. john mayer, perform a rockin set at mandalay bay. so he has a potty mouth, and makes funny faces when he sings, but john mayer proves my theory that you can get an only slightly attractive male and throw him on stage with a guitar and he will be instantly hotter. more than his looks, i love the intelligent sense of humor he shows between songs, and of course his songwriting. most of his songs express the unexpressable in just the right ways...
my new favorite is perfectly lonely, as it should be my new motto..."no where to go, nothing to see. a simple little kind of free. nothing to do. no one but me. and that's all i need. I'm perfectly lonely."
and it's lyrics like this that remind me that i don't NEED to be dating and searching so...at times desperately...to find a partner in life. i'm ok by myself. maybe i need to take a break.

then i find myself here...2 days into spring break and not exactly taking the break from dating that i had originally planned. i was actually out earlier this evening with the Set-Up aka The Giant, who I hadn't seen since date 1 with him. we met at a local casino, which was eerily quiet on a Sunday evening and decided to blow some of our savings by gambling. he played some craps while i watched and tried to learn, then we both hit the blackjack table. i am quiet clueless when it comes to blackjack, but held my own, hit blackjack once, 21 twice and left with a whopping $6.50 profit!! lucky day!!!!!! then we sat at the bar and chatted for a bit-- again great conversation, some witty jokes exchanged back and forth but the spark...not quiet there...
so i think i've made a new friend, but i don't see it developing into anything more. he actually reminds me a TON of a certain other male teacher/gambling-loving/travel bugged friend.

and then, i've found an huge new superstore of men to shop for, as i logged on for the first time to okcupid.com. talk about fun! and free! i haven't found anyone spectacular on there yet, but it asks you these random questions and the more questions you answer the better (more accurate) matches you'll receive. it's quite fun, and unlike eharm, you can skip questions if you want. so so far, i find it thoroughly enjoyable, which means i won't be taking a break from the shopping for boys any time too soon either.
well maybe a short break, as i'll be in NY Wed-Sunday but then back in full force after that. and if it doesn't work out, and my shopping trips fail...then i'll just remember that i'm perfectly lonely.
