holy crow... the season of holiday parties is upon us. this usually is a great thing. a crew from work actually went to see this musical thang called the donkey show which is shakespeare's a midsummer night's dream set to disco... actually it was pretty good...

then a few of us went to this place called red rock west where women get on the bar and start taking off their shirts and dance all sexy and stuff....

i am not the "sexy" type...

so they started playing the song dueling banjos ( from the movie "deliverance" ) and there were 10 girls up there sexing it up and stuff, so i got up there and took off my shirt (still kept bra on) and then um, i did a sort of puppet show with my 'girls' to the music.

i am gonna catch hell from folks at work on monday... oh well... at least the entire crowd was cheering for me and the other girls up on the bar were trying very hard to get the crowd's attention just by dancing...

guys threw $27 up on the bar at me and 6 phone #'s -- heh!! yes i sound like a comedic whore. oh well !! i had fun... and am glad i didn't have a 26-hour grandma doily type of bra on...

okay, so that was friday. saturday i planned on cancelling the date with this guy that i sort of was seeing... 2 or 3 dates in a month...not exactly serious, but i didn't want to ruin his holiday season since he was already planning new years and such with me (ugh.)

so i get a phone call from him at 1:30pm... and he's like, "hey, er. um, listen, you're a cool chick and all, but the distance thing is kinda bad"

fuck. he beat me to it. crap. here i am being dumped by a guy who has 2 DWI's, no license, is 32 and lives at home with his parents, and makes 4x less than me. (not that that is an issue with me, but STILL.)

okay, so i am sitting there staring quietly at the handset and he has the gall to say "don't cry, erin"

PARDON?!?!? i'm sorry, did he just say DON'T CRY? the only reason i would be crying would be to release tears of joy. i felt like i was dating a 16 year old the entire time, since we'd be on the phone and his dad would yell in the background "you've been on the phone long enough"...

don't cry. um... no problem, i shan't.

what else happened this week? well got my sofa and overstuffed chair delivered, had a cleaning service come in and clean up what the construction guys have done to my place...

OH!! i didn't write about how the construction guys pee'd on my bathroom floor (i think just from bad aim) and they ate my cheese, soda and women's vitamin bars (hope they don't start PMSing)... i hope this stuff is over with SOON.

at least with it being clean and getting my "adult" furniture, i don't feel like i live in a dorm anymore...

what else? i think that's about it for now...

HOLD IT!! okay, my ex-eric called me from detroit!!! we started talking and now he is picking me up a few days before new year's and we are going to niagara falls for a couple of days before celebrating NYE in detroit!!! gee... he has no problem with the distance thing, huh????? *sigh*

no, i shan't start getting all ga-ga over him again... we are just celebrating new year's and i am gonna see his house in royal oak... that's all... yep... uh-huh...y'know, for auld lang syne's sake....
