Day 32 of Singledom

Work hard, play hard. Some days anyway. I had my fill of puppies and for the most part their annoying owners and wanted to do something fun after work. Watched The Invention of Lying which completely cracked me up. Also made me think, could you imagine a place were not only does not one lie but you tell the brutally honest truth with no regard to the other person? I could live there, I would be ecstatically happy to live there. All the bullshit pleasantries gone and down to the nitty gritty reality. Some days might be rough but overall you know where you stand with everyone truthfully. As it is now you have bad days and you never really know what people really think or feel about you and the ones who lie to you the most are usually the ones who are supposed to love you the best. Kinda fucked up ain't it?

Talked to The Engineer and he asked me to take the train to Milwaukee where his house is and have dinner, hang out and he would drive me back in morning. What? Umm, No. Sorry.

After the movie I hung out with a coworker, we had been out in groups before and when he asked if I wanted to grab a drink at this Ale House I have never been to I was up for it. He does a mean Rosie Perez accent and I wanted to keep the laughs going so I went. Funny how you work with someone and you think you know alot about the person then you find out you really didn't know jack and they happen to be super cool and hopefully a really good friend in the future. I like having guy friends, I always try to establish right away that I am not interested in anything romantic and then if they are still wanting to hang out it usually leads to a great friendship. Guys normally don't care who is coming out or where they are going or what activities they do they just want to have fun. I like that carefree mentality.

I also have this guilty pleasure for beer. I don't like it and I don't want to drink it but I love watching other people drink it and I like buying beer for the cool bottles. Another plus with going to ale houses are there are usually manly men there and that is another one of my guilty pleasures. While I am scoping out the hot men and the bar apparently I was being scoped out too. During our 3rd drink and reminiscing about the bullshit our exes put us through a very attractive girl walked up and handed me a napkin, "Call me" she says and walks away. My friend couldn't believe it, he was a stunned as me to see her name, phone number and email address. Wow. Us women have certainly gotten bold. As flattered as I was, and believe me I was because it's not everyday you get to upstage the nice looking guy next to you, I will not be calling her. Completely not interested in women but love the confidence she exuded when she came up to me. I am going to use a little of that for the next ale house I walk into. Watch out beer drinking manly men.
