Much has happened since I last wrote...
Mary and I are in a HUGE fight, but of course, as always, she is convinced that it is not her fault at all. I am really tired of her being negative and bossy and just a plain bitch to be around. Also, she is twenty-four years old, lives at home, and doesn't have a job. She went back to school this semester, but there is no reason she can't work part time, esp. when her sixty-five year-old father is still working. The fight is a long and drawn-out story involving several long e-mails and a ridiculous law suit she wants to file against an aquiantance of ours who posted photos of her on the internet (nothing nude or in any way defaming). Also, she is convinced that I want to sleep with her boyfriend (who I already dated three years ago, and who treated me like trash). I'm really tired of her acting like she's fifteen, and I just don't have the patience to deal with it anymore.
After taking most of this week off because I was sick, I finally went back to work. All is going well there. My manager is very nice and finally had the time to train me a bit more today. Eight hour days really don't seem long right now, and I hope it never gets that way.
I went out Wednesday night with my friend Eric, who has been talking with me since September when he came into Victoria's Secret and sent his friend back to get my number. We went out on a few dates in September, but then I freaked out and told him that I just wanted him to be my friend. After spending four months getting to know him, I have decided that he is really an amazing and sweet person. I told him that I want to start dating. He seemed very happy about that, and last night he kissed me for the first time. I have to say that I am rather terrified about all of this, because I don't know if I can put my heart out there right now and I am very afraid of getting hurt. The plan (for me) is just to take things very slowly and not to do anything that I may regret later. This is something I really don't want to screw up.
We have all of the right things in common- political and social views, tastes in music and food, and views toward our friends and relationships. He's incredibly outgoing and confident, and unbelievably sweet and considerate. He's very smart and well-spoken, as well. He's also very creative (and a great dresser), runs his own web design business and owns half of a percussion company, and he plays drums for two bands. I think he is a very sincere person. I also think he's adorable, and I'm really glad that he sent his friend back to get my phone number four months ago.
Also, Susan and I are meeting up tonight. I like her more and more. She is very open and warm, and I feel like she really has her life together. She's 29, owns her own home, designs pools for a living (which I find very interesting), and knows a lot about artsy and cultural things in Tampa and St. Pete. I'm obviously still getting to know her, but I think that she is the kind of woman I aspire to be.
