Overwhelmed July 30, 2005

I wish I could say that something incredible has been going on for the past week. I wish I could thrill you all with stories of my fabulousness and tales of fantastic adventures, but I’m fresh out.
Truth is, I’m overwhelmed.
The transition into adulthood (which is taking years for me) is not fun. And the working and the responsibilities and everything is just a bit much.
But me whining about being overwhelmed is boring. Here’s a story about me feeling old!
I was sitting at a sushi bar snacking on edamame and sipping pinot grigio one night this evening, feeling a touch tipsy and kind of cute. Our server was flirting with us to increase his tip and we were flirting back to improve our service.
As we watched the bustling kitchen and all of the chefs making sushi, we noticed a very attractive chef in the back. He was nice and tall and had this fantastic smile and great dimples. I kept making eye contact and my friend joked that he was probably really young.
She told the server I thought this guy was cute, and OF COURSE the server told the cutie. I was mortified as he walked over, smiled and said, “I am NOT 19.” I giggled and asked how old he was.
He was so proud to announce that he was 21.
Dear God, I felt like a pedophile!
Questions answered soon, I swear. (And The Dummy better stop tapping his foot, because he KNOWS as well as the rest of you do that I have to get my manicure and brow waxing done first!)
I’m right there with ya sister. Had a cutie chatting with me this week, but I had to ignore him as I think he was born the year I graduated high school. Getting older sucks.
Okay, a pedophile story will buy you some time.
So what’s your limit in terms of how much younger a guy can be?
I get chatted up by very young guys quite a lot, as young as 18. That now makes me a whole 10 years older than them!
They are getting younger yet bolder.
As the saying goes…The good ones are all taken or yet to be born…/
Hey, get them young enough and you can get them trained right!
A few years ago I was hitting on some guy until he mentioned the fact that he was 16 and “skates for Jesus”.
I backed up, slowly….
the horror!
the horror!
In our pedophilia defense, how many guys have been waiting for Mary Kate and Ashley to finally become legal? I mean, really!
Don’t really care about the manicure and eyebrow wax, I want to hear about your brazilian if you know what I mean…
Oh, wait, manicure implies long nails that can dig into my back and shoulders when you can’t control your passion… maybe I do want to hear about them…
Obviously, I’m a virgin reader of your blog… don’t let my statements above keep you from visiting my world and saying hello.
