Atlanta f-ing airport
2008-01-30 13:44:00
Dear Atlanta airport,I had the great (dis)pleasure of sitting around in your right now. While you have some awesome attributes and very clean terminals, your staff are a bunch of assholes. I almost got ran over by a large dumpster on wheels and then yelled at like it was my fault. I asked for help trying to change my connecting flight, and was offered little to none, but eyerolls were included for free!!Perhaps the best was when you offered free coffee at the gate and as soon as it was put out your employees attacked it like vultures. I was patient and waited my turn but when I got to the coffee area, it was gone. ALL GONE!! Coffee meant for your patrons was slurped up by your employees, perhaps you should check into that. I think they call that "stealing".I have been to Atlanta many times before and very much enjoy the city, buy you airport? You suck, big time.Love and Haterade,*RedPS. Your little train blows and the NYC subway is way better.PPS. If you delay my fucking f...

Well after 5 days of raining it is finally sunny here in LA, and I am leaving tonight. Go figure right? It is actually going to be sunny for the next week, awesome. That's alright, I am going home for my actual birthday on Thursday and then I head to Toronto on Saturday for a week. But on the bright side? I didn't see Mr. Ex the whole time I was here, eventhough we have been texting back and forth and I was in his neighborhood yesterday. Oh well, time to go pack and take the red-eye tonight.Me driving in the sunshine. I don't miss driving in LA, but I miss views like this one.

It has been raining since I got here Thursday. Like pouring rain, like monsoon rain and now, I have a cold. I got a cold when I came to California. Not in the freezing cold NY weather, but in the California weather. I am on the couch sickkkkkkkkk. But I had fun at my birthday party last night, more on that to come later, after I am done being sick.

It never rains in California....

Whoever said that is an idiot. It has been raining since I got here yesterday. Where is the sun? I didn't sign up for this raining grossness. I am staying at the beach and I can sit in the living room and look out onto the deck and into the ocean, yet I can't go out there because it won't stop raining.In other news, last night as we were all trying to figure out where to go to dinner I offered up a suggestion, only to realize I was slipping into LA/Mr. Ex mode. It was a restaurant in Hollywood that we went to all the time. I just spit it out and then I had to catch myself and realize this trip to LA is going to be different.

LA bound??
2008-01-24 10:18:00
I am going to LA on in a few hours and it is not to see Mr.Ex. I'm not sure how to handle this. I feel excited to go, but at the same time, I am so nervous that I am going to be miserable. Yes, it is for my birthday and I am having a party thrown for me and I have a birthday crown and all, but at the same time, LA and Mr.Ex go hand-in-hand for me. Everything about LA screams him and he was just here, in my bed, with me, about a week ago. We texted back and forth a few hours ago and he said he wasn't in LA and that I should go. I think I am going to listen to him. I'm going, I think. The car will be here in a few minutes, hopefully I'll get in it.

How can you not comment on this? Last night I was in the a bar in my 'hood when the news broke that Heath Ledger had died. Everyone in the bar got really quiet, really fast. It was such a shock because he lives in the 'hood, like blocks away. Most of us have seen him wandering around and that was ok because no one bothered him. As I was taking the pup for a walk this morning and I rounded the familiar corner, it was insane. There were satellite trucks and reporters everywhere, hounding people for comments on the street. Seriously? Go away. We don't want you here. Don't go to Brooklyn either, leave them alone.

Apartment? NO.

So I haven't found an apartment yet and while I am not worried, I am getting anxious and I have been scouring Craigslist like a fiend. Needless to say, I have see some uhh, interesting ads, like this one for example....$1400 Nudist Couple has Nice, Large Bdrm Avail Now in Clothing Optional Apt (Downtown)Friendly, respectful, down-to-earth nudist couple has a nice, large bedroom available in our downtown loft for a friendly, easy-going nudist (or someone who is nude friendly). The apartment is really nice and comfortable and the available bedroom is about 130 sq. ft. and has a large window. Since we are posting on the Internet, let us stress that we are naked for comfort and convenience and because we like to be naked - it is not for any sexual reason. If you enjoy being able to be naked in your home (or don't mind living with people who are) and want to live in a nicely furnished, comfortable apartment with cool, considerate roommates, then you should definitely get in touch with...

Everything is moving so fast and it is so amazing. It's all one big blur and I love it. Everything feels comfortable and perfect and safe and it's exactly where I want to be. It is crazy how this happened and I feel like fate really played a part in it. How else would I have ever met him? I don't know, but I am glad I did.For the first time in a long time, I feel like someone actually wants me and wants to show me off and wants to take care of me. He makes time for me during the day and he emails me back and forth all day. I walk over to his office and get lunch with him and I meet him for dinner and drinks afterwards. I feel like I am in a real grown-up relationship, as silly as that sounds. I don't have to hide and I don't have to sit and wait by the phone. He shows up and he calls.He smiles at me and I melt and he winks at me and I get nervous. He tucks my hair behind my ear, which I cannot even begin to explain how endearing and cute that is. He rubs his hand over the top...

We all need to know where we fit in but I assure you, you won't find the answer by flashing your va-jay-jay, being hopped up on Frapps and driving around like a lost tourist. You need a vacation, like somewhere quiet, and where you can get your shit together, if you even have shit left to get together. Take a cue from Brangelina and head to Namibia, they have really strict laws about getting your picture taken without your permission. But, I seem to think you like getting your picture taken, it's called an addiction. I know you still want to feel relevant...

Dear Kelly Taylor ,Stop being such a bitch to Brandon Walsh. You are being way too self-righteous and ignorant. If two gay guys want to adopt Jessica Alba's baby go ahead and let them. You didn't even ask Brandon if he wanted a baby you just didn't want to the gay guys to have it. Oh and stop being so dramatic. I mean you've been raped, shot, hit with a car, stalked, had amnesia, and so on and I understand, but come on, stop being a bitch.Thanks,*RedPS. Yes I will admit, I have become addicted to 90210 reruns at 5pm and 6pm everyday. I even Tivo them.PPS. How ironic is it that Jessica Alba played a pregnant girl on the show a few days ago who was going to give up her baby but "didn't want it to be raised by queers" and now she is pregnant in real life?

So Mr. Landlord has agreed to come my family's Christmas party on Saturday night!!! He is totally excited about meeting my family and we are actually staying over at my family's house. We have only been hanging out for not even a week and he is already going to meet the fam.Seriously could this get any better? It is so, so nice to be important to someone and to really feel like you are important. I guess this is really what a "real" relationship is like and I love it. I really have not been this happy in such a long time. When we were emailing back and forth he told me that I might be disappointed in his looks and he couldn't of been more wrong. He is everything I have wanted in a guy, looks included. He makes me feel totally safe, like anything could happen and he would take care of it which I love.I'm actually pretty sick right now with another cold and he has been emailing me all day to make sure I am ok. How cute is that?I guess my Buddhism is paying off, because every...

I don't know if there was a better way to sum up my night than with that word. It would absolutely amazing. I mean other than the traffic and masses of tourists, it was so much fun.I arrived at the hotel and made him come out and get me because I didn't want to be the new girl and have everyone stare at me as I came in. So he came out into the lobby to get me and kissed me on the cheek and helped me take my coat off then put his arm out for me to hold to as we walked into the room. He walked me over to the table and sat me down and introduced me to everyone. Everyone was so nice and I immediately felt comfortable. He came and sat down next to me and put his arm around me and I settled in nicely. We were only there for like an hour and half before a big group of us decided to leave and head to the bar down the street, naturally, an Irish bar. Now, here is where things get interesting.In a bar full of about 100 people the only 2 redheaded people in the place were me and the bartende...

The apartment? Not so much. The landlord? Very much. Wooooooo hooooooooo. Ummm, can you say amazing? The apartment wasn't my style and in fact it was too small for me, but Mr. Landlord, was fantastic. Basically we grew up the same way, in the same kind of town, with the same kind of people, about 8 hours apart. As soon as I got to the apartment I was like no, but you wanna go for drinks? And we totally did and it was totally fantastic. He opens doors, he pulls out chairs, he reached over and put the hair behind my ear, which was so unexpected and awesome. When we left the restaurant and I was freezing he took his scarf off and wrapped it around my neck. Who does that? I loved it. The best part? He didn't even try to kiss me at the end of the night and instead gave me a big hug and kissed me the cheek. Reason for singleness? He, for real, broke up with his on again/off again girlfriend of 3 1/2 years in July because all they did was fight all the time. Which, I uh, can...

So really? This apartment thing is starting to work out. The landlord guy and I have been emailing back and forth and he sounds like he could be a winner. Of course, everything is strictly and only about the apartment right now and he totally knows that and respects that. But on the flip side? He is being totally awesome. On paper, he looks great, 27, lawyer, owns 3 apartments in NYC (bonus), likes to drink wine and is 6'2". This might just work out in my favor. I am going to look at the apartment tomorrow night and only the apartment. We'll see how it goes from there. But perhaps I could get some reduced rent! Just kidding (maybe). After I told him we could maybe grab a drink as this whole thing is weird territory for me. But I have 3 more apartments to look at this week, so if he is cool, I'll say to hell with the apartment and hello New Year's date instead. I think I have problems. Hahahaha.

The Single Girl's Survival Guide
2007-12-03 15:09:00
So we all know that I am single, and I hate it, but there is something out there that has made it a little more bearable. The Single Girl’s Survival Guide by Imogen Lloyd Webber. I was asked to review this book and I am so glad I was, it came at just the right time. This book is really full of all kinds of useful information on work, home, friends, socializing, and, of course, dating and sex. It doesn’t hate on you for being single and infact Ms. Webber encourages you to celebrate your singleness!My favorite part is about New Year’s Eve. Her reason for it being ok to not have a midnight kiss? You are less likely to get someone else’s germs, since a lot of people are sick that time of year. How genius is that? That is perfect way to look at it for me since I am a germaphobe. Needless to say, GO BUY THIS BOOK FOR ALL YOUR SINGLE FRIENDS!! It will make a great Christmas present.

So I am looking for a new place and I went the popular route, Craigslist. I answered an ad for a great little West Village studio last night and instead, I got an offer for a date. But not in a creepy way. Like in a joking kinda way. He said it was totally cool if I just wanted to look at the apartment but he would like to take me out for a drink sometime. I should also add that I attached a picture of myself and my pup to the email I sent him. He is a lawyer and I looked him up on his firm's website and he isn't that bad looking. I totally want this apartment though. It is super cute and well within my price range. What should I do?

Too many chances.
2007-11-28 21:02:00
Here is my problem, I give too many chances. I am always trying to give the other person the benefit of the doubt and I am always trying to give another chance, because I would like to have another chance if I needed one. That is probably one of my biggest flaws. I always try to see the best in people and I tend to not notice the bad or I tend to ignore the bad and hope it goes away. I tend to let people walk all over me because I feel bad for them. I don’t always think of myself and maybe I should. I am so worried about taking care of other people that in the process I let myself get hurt and I’m not really sure how to change that. I don’t want to seem standoff-ish or uncaring. I always want to be the person that is there for everyone when they need it. Right now though, I wish there was someone there for me.

I just want somebody to love me, for who I am and without complications, without restrictions and without doubt and fear. Is that so bad? I want to sit on the couch and drink a bottle of wine, I want Sunday brunches in our pjs and I want to cook dinner at home.

Yeah, I think so. While we were waiting to take our spot for take off I looked behind us and there were 8 planes lined up. 8!!! But, that's not it. Let me compile a list for you of things NOT to do at the airport around me.1. Look if you haven't flown in the last few years things have changed. Don't yell at the TSA guy because he won't let your bring you sealed water you bought outside of security into the terminal area. It's your loss for not doing research before you went. Suck it up and move on because if I have to hear you bitch at him and hold me up I'm probably going to drop kick you.2. Yeah, you have to take your shoes off, your coat off and everything else off of you within 1 layer of clothing. Again, deal with it and don't fucking wear everything in your closet to get through...

I mean these people have known me for all of my 25 years. How many people can you say that about? They were there through everything and yes, at times, we didn't get along and in fact we were worst enemies, but the fact that we can meet up and laugh about that, is amazing. We were once a trio that would drive around in my red civic and cause trouble and leave school to go out to lunch, but now as we sat at the bar we were, a writer, a PhD, a restaurant owner.
