Too many parties, too little time.

It sucks being me. I have 2 parties to go to this week, one this weekend for sure and the theater on Friday.

Parties
Saturday I went to a birthday party for one of my Hash friends and saw lots of people I hadn't seen in quite a while. It's always fun playing with old friends.
Sunday I went to a cookout with some new friends and that was lots of fun,too.

A New One on Me
I have already been lectured about my low self-esteem, and I've mentioned here several times about how much I hate online dating and my ego isn't up for that crap. Well, this is a new one on me. I got an email from some guy who wanted my picture. He was a bit arrogant in his personal information, but he emailed me and said we seemed to have much in common, could I send him my picture. As I've said, I posted one for the service, but they wouldn't use it as my main photo as it was too grainy. So I sent it to this guy, who told me one of his eclectic activities was photography and he would try to clean it up. Well, his reply was that I had a nice smile and I should take more pictures and he SENT MY PICTURE BACK TO ME. Well. As far as I could tell, he didn't do anything to it. I have a friend who was trying to convince me that it wasn't a blow off, but there was no 'Hope to hear from you soon' or 'Let's meet for drinks' or anything like that, it was 'you have a nice smile, here's your picture.' Guess he doesn't have time for 'nice smiles'.

Job Hunt
Still waiting to hear about my interview this week. I just sent my resume to a company for a HelpDesk associate, temp-to-perm, and they called me back! I am SO over qualified for this position, but it's close by and the pay is not good, but better than I'm making on unemployment. Hey, it may even be a challenge as it would be dealing with network issues and printer issues, a part of my career that could use some tweaking. Hey, wait a minute, I'm a software person, not a hardware person. So we'll see. I have to do something, the money is dwindling, but I'm getting so bored.

More to come...
As things happen, I'll be posting. Thanks for taking the time to read. You're opinions are welcome but if you have to start calling me names, don't bother, I won't read them. As my Dad says 'Opinions are like a**holes, everyone has one.'

You probably aren't missing out on the Nice Smile guy. He could be my little troll who was bragging about the $60,000 diamond he would buy for the "right woman." Ecccchhh.
