What a flippin' week!

Whew!  What a week!  Last Saturday night I told my BFF he no longer had a BFF after he crept into my room at 2:30 in the morning and tried to put the moves on me - DESPITE TELLING HIM OVER 100 TIMES HE WOULD NEVER GET THERE WITH ME!!!!!  Okay, so you see, we were up playing boardgames (yes, we are total dorks) late and opened a bottle of wine, so by the time I was ready to go to bed he wasn't ready to drive.  I told him to hang out on the couch until he was ready to go and then leave.  I wake up at 2:30am with him in my room.  Don't think so, isn't going to fly.  I told him to get the heck out of the house, though not in that nice of words or tone and not to come back.  I'm done.  Tell me, how many times do you have to tell someone they are like a brother to you?  I thought that was a guy's worst nightmare...hello?  I think maybe he was just born plain stupid.  So no more BFF is amounting to a week full of peace for me!!!!

Thursday I decided to not only go shopping in flip flops (and yes, part of my foot is still broken, but I've had it), but go shopping quite a few miles up the road in another city.  My car starts smoking under the passenger tire.  WTF????  So what do I do when I have car problems?  Pull over into a parking lot and cry, of course.  Then what do I do?  Call my dad, who's 400 miles away somewhere in Minnesota/Northern Wisconsin!  Well, thank goodness I had AAA  (that's Triple A, not Alcoholic's Anonymous...although the way my week has gone...).  They towed me free and then I had someone meet me at the car place.  I thought I was going to have an $800 or so repair, but it only turned out to be $353!!!  Woo hoo.  Not that I'm thrilled to be shelling out $353 either, but it was still a relief.  Turns out the compartment that holds the thermostat in at the radiator blew off...but I was lucky.  No hoses busted, the engine or radiator didn't even get affected.  Yay! 

Today I went to see Sex and the City 2.  It was meh.  To be honest, I didn't even like the first Sex and the City movie, but this one looked fun.  Okay, so I'm a sucker.  I will see nearly any movie that is filmed in a foreign country - I can't get rid of my travel bug.  Oh, and it did have John Corbett in it...let's not forget, I'd bed him in 10 seconds flat!!! (No "you're like my brother" syndrome with that one!)

BIG NEWS!!!!  Lately I've been thinking about possibly trying to date (even before the BFF incident).  I finally decided (hm, maybe seeing John Corbett today helped pushed that decision along as I was wiping up drool) to join a dating site.  I don't know how else to meet people.  I have been here 10 years and have a whole 2 friends...so.  I guess we'll see how it goes.  I'm not counting on anything and am totally wondering who would date me anyway?  I know, it's that whole self-confidence thing I get lectured about, but it's kind of a bit scary to put yourself out there again.  Wasn't I supposed to meet my "man" in college and be done with it? 

Finally, I got on the elliptical today.  I put that m*f* together by myself after I hauled the 300 lb parts in from the garage.  UPS wouldn't haul it in the house for me.  Bastards!  At least it came in pieces - except for the elliptical wheel part thingy that I think weighed at least 200 lbs.  It was not a pretty site.  Correction.  I was not a pretty site.  Anyway, I did a program on it today and burned 454 calories...which I put back on when I ordered Thai food tonight.  Can I somehow turn this around into a win-win situation????
