It's been too long

Yeah, I know. I need to post more often and I'm going to make an effort to do so. Lately, a lot has been going on, some good, some not so good. I think I'll start with the not so good and end up with the good because that's the order it came in and everybody likes chronological order. Or something.

First, the thing that pissed me off the most. I tried to throw a party on Saturday night. I had 3 cases of beer, a couple of two liters of soda, snacks, cleaned up the place and make it all look good. I was ready and I was pumped for it. The first sign of bad news: my sister called to tell me she couldn't come. I was ok with it because it was her friend's birthday and it makes sense to go out for someone's birthday. No biggie. So she was out and so were her friends who might have come with. Still about 25 or so people invited. Then my cousin called. He had a wedding to go to. Ok, I can accept that too. Wedding is more important than a random party. My buddy Rick tells me he's not coming because his fiancee "has his nuts in a jar." Then people from work, who had already said they were coming, started telling me they couldn't come. Some of their excuses:

- I'm going to see my neighbor's band.
- I'm kind of tired.
- I'm going to watch a movie instead.

So I was kinda pissed. Then my friend Amy no shows. So I called her at 8 to see what was up and she tells me she isn't coming because she forgot and she didn't want to drive out. Argggh! I had 6 people show up. 6! ARRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH! So I've come to the conclusion that I'm not throwing any more parties. At least, not in the near future. The only good thing that came out of the party was that I sent Rick a wonderful reply to his jar comment. It went as follows:

Dude, we need help. We need drinkers. So tell Allison to get her ass up here and you can go get a manicure.

Yeah, I'm like that.

Anyway, that was the bad news. The good news: I've started seeing someone. She's smart, funny, incredibly sarcastic and sassy. I really like her (obviously). I'm not going into it any more than that, especially not after what happened with Kathryn. Now that was a HUGE mistake. God I'm dumb. Anyway, so I'm happy about this new girl. I had an incredible day today mostly because of her. It's a good feeling.
