Camera Ready: Going on a Cutie Run

Just a little update: So I have been feelings a little down lately, while I am going out on dates none of them excite me in the least bit. Whether any of them ever calls again I could really care less. I know sometimes things start out slowly but I NEED a little spark or something to make me smile when I think of you. I have been doing a lot of reading lately just to help get my mind right for when he comes along. I’ve also been working on improving my total package, inside and out. One book talks about how a woman needs to be feminine and I really think my generation has lost touch with that idea. When I read the quote below it really spoke to me and it is something I think I need to read everyday before I walk about the door. I may have to print it and tape it to my bedroom mirror or something. LOL

I don't understand how a woman can leave the house without fixing herself up a little - if only out of politeness. And then, you never know, maybe that's the day she has a date with destiny. And it's best to be as pretty as possible for destiny. -- Coco Chanel

Tonight I am going out with two of my girls and I know we are going to have a blast. I am going on my first official “Cutie Run” of the season. The weather is nice, I got some new make-up, and I am ready to get it in. We always have a good time when we get together and we haven’t seen each other in a while so I am excited. Alright ladies wish me luck and keep your fingers crossed for me.

Camera Ready: Date #4 Mr. Say What

I met Mr. Say What at a local area lounge. Our initial conversation was brief but he was cute so I figured why not when he asked me for my phone number. Let’s just say that this dude has not mastered the fine art of conversation, and it is indeed an art. We played phone tag for a few weeks before we finally got together Sunday afternoon for lunch. He was late, which a huge no-no in my book as I am always on time. When he walked in my first thought was “okay nice looking” and then he sat down and the first question out his mouth was “so you really looking for somebody?” At which point I was like ‘Say What’ shouldn’t we at least get to dessert before you ask those types of questions. Needless to say this dude had absolutely no conversation what so ever. I thought to myself there is no way I could spend large amounts of time with you I need someone who can stroke me mental as well as physically. We ended up making small talk over the rest of the meal. When we parted ways we hugged and mentioned speaking later but I seriously doubt that will happen. His conversational skills were just not up to par for me. Something about him was just a little off. I can’t put my finger on exactly what it is but something just ain’t right with Mr. Say What, he was little to fidgety wasn’t making direct eye contact and I think he was having trouble doing basic math…so once again it’s on to the next one. I need some prayer cause I hope I find him soon.
