So on Saturday I went out to the bar. It was good and I stayed later than I had meant to. I am noticing a pattern of how I interact with women at bars. (I use the term “interact” in its loosest sense.) I’ll see a woman I would like to meet. I will try and figure out how to talk to her, but never get a good enough plan, or only come up with one after it is too late. This will shortly become obsession. I will try and make eye contact, but they will always avoid it. Get depressed. Then lather, rinse, repeat.
So my lesson is to not obsess over any one woman. Instead just go and pretend to have fun, and not try to meet anyone. Having typed that out, it sounds depressing.
Anyway, as I said, I stayed out too late. Come Sunday morning, I was too wasted to go running. I did enjoy sleeping in, and I only really got around to functioning when I had to go to the tanning salon. The tanning is good, and I’m well on my way to a base tan. My manager today noticed that I was tanned. But I think he was trying to change the subject to get out of making a decision.
After work I did an expedition to WEM. I was looking for ideas for halloween. Since my demon wing plan has totally fallen through, I’m looking for something else. I have two events I need to have a costume for. One for Friday’s halloween party at work, and then Saturday at New City. Since the Friday one is last minute I was thinking of rehashing a costume from previous years. I have a really good cat costume (pound for pound the most evil thing on the planet). I think I’m going to use an old demon costume for New City; It hasn’t actually been out to a party yet, but I’m not that proud of the wings.
Popular opinion seems to be against the cat costume. It might look too gay, and I’m not secure enough in my sexuality to disagree. 🙂 So I think I’m just going to go as a goth.
