You are just a young girl who likes to sleep around yeah?

I've been giving my room an intensive cleaning. Looking through my sketchbooks to decide which ones I should put in storage boxes under my bed and which to keep out to access, I came across this dialogue in a letter I'd written to a friend trying to describe this ridiculous guy I met. Luckily, I never sent it and therefore get to relive this amazing conversation I had via IM with a scary dude I went on a date with. After this one date, I decided I liked him, but wasn't ready or willing to date him exclusively. When I told him this he went nuts.

The date of the letter is May 11, 2006. It was this dude that worked at the same place I did and I thought he was really cute, but he turned out to be crazy! This is the conversation verbatim:

D: You are going to make a lot of serious enemies, Sarah.
Me: I already have some, haha.
D: What? Who?
Me: I was joking. I just meant boys that are disappointed if my expectations don't match theirs.
D: Why do you call men boys?
Me: Because I call males boys?
D: Is it because you don't think they are good enough for you?
Me: No ... male people ARE boys.

D: You knew from the first time we hung out that you weren't going to give me a chance.
Me: No I didn't.
D: Yes you did. I've been on this earth a little longer to know.*
Me: I think I know how I feel better than you do.

*I think he was like 2-3 years older than me

D: Women just walk in and they fuck up the balance and waltz out.

D: Over the years I have become very proficient at dealing with smartasses.
D: Maybe the next time I see you I'll put you in your place.
D: I've never hit a woman before but you just might be the first.

D: What's up with the slow responses?
Me: I don't even know what to say to your questions.
D: Why because you think you're more intelligent than me??

D: You are just a young girl who likes to sleep around yeah?


Ahhhhhh. That was terrible, but fun to look back on! Insecure much?

Okay, the blog title is retarded, I admit. But insomniac lolita tagged me to post one picture that represents my personal interior design style. It's Monticello. The entire estate but especially the house, and especially the library.



If you hadn't realized yet, I am a huge nerd. The only thing I'd want different about the library (well besides the books in it) is to have one of those sliding ladders.



I'm tagging the following people to do the same (or even if I didn't tag you, it would be cool if you did it too). Post one picture that represents your personal interior design style!

I am wondering why so few people are voting on this week's poll?! Are you shy? Are you ashamed? What's the deal? It's anonymous! It's okay to say! And even if you weren't, I'm not judging (: Vote, people!! This is obvs more important than the last US presidential election!

And as for my personal life ...

I went on an approximately 17 hour first date yesterday. It was interesting (: We'll see what happens.

"I bang the worst dudes"

There are so many great sites that I would like to contribute my life experiences to. passiveaggressivenotes.com has always been a fun one. I recently found fmylife.com and yesterday I discovered I bang the worst dudes (sorry, Mom).

The other day I was telling a friend from high school about this guy I went on a couple dates with (years ago). After hanging out a couple times, I was feeling pretty lukewarm about it all and told him I wasn't interested in dating him exclusively. He proceeded to threaten to hit me. Too bad we worked at the same place--work was a bit awkward after that. Anyway, I didn't even bang that dude and he reacted that badly.

My friend told me about his most recent date which gave me a good laugh. Maybe you'll think it's funny too (I didn't tell him I am putting this in my blog so hopefully he never finds out), "Another shining moment was my most recent date which ended in the "bro hug." If you are unfamiliar, the "bro hug" is where you hold their hand, pull them in and give them some pats on the back with the free hand."

I told him I didn't believe it, but he swore it was true.

p.s. I've been listening to Stephen Colbert's "I Am American and So Can You" and I fully agree with this little bit: Chivalry never goes out of style, guys. Open doors, pull out chairs, offer to undo your own belt.
