Hi All!
After much agony, I finally got the chutspa to start a blog... YAAAY! My best friend gave me a little courage with a rockin blog name... and it couldn't be more fitting. Please comment - I can't wait to hear your thoughts!!
Aight, so heres what really started this whole bloggin thing...
I had an "aha" moment on women vs men (or maybe me vs men) today... heres the situation:
Guy 1 offered to have me and Guy 2 over to watch the VeePee debates tonight in Los Feliz. He said 8pm... in my mind, I'm coming from downtown so Guy 1's place is easy for me, but 8 is late since I get out of work by 6. Hmmm, what should I do? I tell myself "oh well, I'll figure it out later" and tell Guy 1 "Perfect! See u tonight!" Guy 2 on the other hand... straight out says 8pm is too late for him and wants to be at Fathers Office eating a burger by then. In sum: sorry, he can't do it.
OMG - sucha difference! Men are straight up and say it how it is... but women figure it out and rearrange to either 1) please or 2) not to cause issues, discomfort, whatever. OR, maybe I'm totally loony... I just thought this was SOOO interesting... I guess its just one of those things I've been wondering about myself lately... why do I so often feel the need to please others even though its totally inconvenient for myself?

and i think that's probably why we get frustrated with guys! they don't understand that we rarely mean what we say. sarah's sausages: i can't wait what you cook up next!
I'm so glad you've joined the blog world. I can't wait to read more. By the way, I totally agree with what you said and often ask myself the same question. :)
Ha! I'm thinking all you had to do was tell Guy #1 he's a nimrod, and that not all debates begin at 8pm. That's just a guess, though. I wouldn't know for sure because I'm not Guy #1 and can't know what he was thinking. The idiot.
I don't see the problem here - off work at 6:00, bars are open from 6:00 - 8:00, at Guy 1's place at 8:00 ready to play the Maverick, Joe-Sixpack, You Betcha, Outsider, drinking game.
