Happy Hump Day!

As I mentioned yesterday it's a blessed no meeting day. I'm taking full advantage of that, which means I'm making sure my goals happen, and if they're not work related, I don't give an f. :)

I also have a very exciting date for this Saturday. Since the pandemic, I've had a dearth of activities to get dressed up for. Every time one comes around now I grab it. We're going out on a double date for dinner, drinks, and to watch some fighting. If that doesn't sound more like me than any date anyone's ever heard of, please apprise yourself of my pugilistic behavior. What I'm saying is, I've been interested in going to a fight before, but I definitely wouldn't want to go to one alone! as for the guy I'm going on a date with, I've known him a long time (which is good, it's how I prefer to date). He lives in Delaware though, which means no real future potential unless he wants to move here. Hey, he does have family here. But I'm not worried about it. Do you know how long it's been since I went on a date? It was pre-pandemic.

Admittedly, I could've gone out seeking dates during the pandemic but it just didn't feel advisable. And this is still a baby date because there's really not much future cost attributed to it. But a baby date is way better than no date. And a date a guy planned, and invited me on, is like some primo level shit, ok? I'm going to wear my (NEW) russet ankle-length jumpsuit with my dark brown Calvin Klein knee high boots (real leather, of course) and I'm probably going to fucking paint my fucking nails, mother fuckers. That's right, I am not stopping at wearing makeup, we are going all the fucking way. I'M GOING TO SEE REAL PEOPLE THAT AREN'T MY FAMILY, IT WON'T BE A FUNERAL, WE WON'T BE IN A LIVING ROOM WATCHING TV, AND I AM DRESSING UP. This really is the first event like that I've had in a a year.

And then if the evening goes well (which I suspect it will -- benefits of going on a date with someone you've known for years, you kinda know if you get along already or not) I'm going to ask this exceptionally good looking man (with a home gym set up to make a girl sweat --- ((smirk emoji)) ) if he still likes going camping, because I've got a camping trip already scheduled for April and it'd be nice if I wasn't a third wheel on my own damn camping trip.

And hey, if we still like each other after going camping together for the first time, maybe he'll want to move to Virginia after all. }:-D

I'm really having an exceptionally marvelous day so, I hope some of my energy transfers on to all of you. That's right. Woo, woo, wooooooo. :)
