-247 A tale of a leaky coffee, a white tshirt and a ridiculously good looking guy

Image by Digitalart

So yesterday I drove up the coast to hang out with Crazy Med Student, The Blue Smurf & Hilariously Grumpy Faced Baby for the day. Randomly wanted to get out of Sydney and to just socialise.

Here's what you need to know about my day yesterday ( other than the fact it was nice, I was perhaps a little whiny about being single and feeling a little lonely and lost at the moment, lunch was tasty from the very trendy little cafe they took me to, and Hilariously Grumpy Faced Baby is only slightly grumpy faced now is still very cute ).






* I wore a white t-shirt ( which was dumb and I knew it )
* I spilled coffee on it about 30 minutes into the trip.
* And again at about 45 minutes in
* And for a third time soon after I spilled a lot. *sigh*
* About a half hour before I left a friend of theirs from Church comes over ( they had a Bible study night ) and I open the door to a ridiculously good looking guy.
* I am covered in coffee, make up free, not looking my best. *sigh*
* He was nice. He asked questions.
* I'm not sure of the impression I left ( other than I have no hand to mouth control ) - lol
* And I am somewhat annoyed at Crazy Med Student for not warning me that he was cute. I had make up in my bag!

*sigh*

I'm not sure if he is single. And I don't think he asked about me otherwise I would have heard from Crazy Med Student by now.

But as I was driving home I realised how much work I have to do in terms of working through my "I don't deserve" and "Don't want to make a fool of myself" inner voices.

You see I could tell my friend that this Random Cute Guy at the Door was very cute and to let him know that I thought he was cute. But....

I don't want the humiliation of rejection. I'm still overweight. I'm older etc etc etc.

And I know that this attitude is not going to get me anywhere. I just can't seem to shake it.

What to do ? What to do? I prayed a lot on the way home last night. I really dislike this feeling that my outside feels so worthless that I can't even tell my friend that I thought this guy was cute?

*sigh*

EDIT : Wednesday night I sent Crazy Med Student a Facebook message commenting on something that was happening for her today and then ended with a PS Telling her that next time she wanted me to open the door to a good looking guy like that ( single, married or otherwise ) please give me fair warning to cover up any evidence of my poor hand to mouth control and to put some spack filler in my wrinkles. A gal has her pride. :P

Phew. Done. Told her I thought he was cute without losing face. Done. Thanks God. :)

-261 Singles Harbour Cruise Follow Up...lol

So I could not have predicted this. I'm not sure what to make of it. Probably nothing at all really.

Remember the "Christian" singles harbour cruise I went on a few weeks ago ? Yes ? No? Here's the link :)

Well while cruising that day I was talking the organiser and a few others and she was saying that she was going to plan a Salsa dancing night where we could get together, have a few drinks, learn Salsa from an instructor and then go clubbing afterward. I said at the time that it sounded fun but I didn't really think too hard about it.

The organiser has merged her singles groups again ( Christians and just singles between 25-39 ) and organised the night for the end of this month. She keeps sending general emails to everyone telling us how many guys tickets are left ( they are now sold out ) and how many girls tickets are left ( apparently there are 3 left ). Today I got a personal email from her asking me how I was and if I was coming to the Salsa night as some of the others had asked if I had received the email and if I was.

Now I am still a "member" of the Christian meet up group and haven't received any "Hi's" from any of those members so it must have been from the couple of "Christianity unknown" guys I was talking to that day.

I'm not going on the Salsa night anyway - logistics stop me - but it seems, as usual, that I capture the interest more of "Christianity Unknown" guys than "Christianity Declared" guys.

Who'd a thunk it?! ;)

-357 What is it about a man in uniform?!

Now despite the fact I have heard stories about 000 parties and I have a cousin who is a policeman -  I still have a thing for a man in uniform. Namely firemen and policemen. I have never had much of a thing for Paramedics but since The Crazy Med Student is married to The Blue Smurf (who is a Paramedic) they have definitely gone down the list to number 3. ;)

As I am locking my garage door earlier this evening a police car pulls into the driveway and drives past me. Now yes, perhaps I do look up and perhaps I am slightly pleased I am feeling a little cute today in my new skirt. Meh. I am single. As if you wouldn't!  And there's more. Quit reading now if you get embarrassed by obvious single girl behaviour ;)

So I go upstairs and 'Oh look at that. I have rubbish to be taken out to the bins. And I really do need to get the mail' ( Ok. That last bit is true. The mailboxes are on the other side of the complex and I am inherently lazy and it's been a number of days since my last visit...but I digress...)

Rubbish bags in hand I make my way down the short flight of stairs and as I open the security door who is there but the two cops pressing the buzzer for one of the units in my section of the complex. :)

Miss365 - Smiles ( possibly like a goon )

Policeman A - young, cute " Hello you !"

Policeman B - also young and cute ( Showing me MORE love God?! ) " And we meet again. Thanks for letting us in."  

Miss365 - Continues to smile like a goon "Most of the buzzers don't work. Depends on who you want to see."....pause. A rational thought appears in her head finally. " It's not me is it?" 

Policeman B " Depends. What number do you live in ?" 

Miss365 " ## " 

Policeman B " Then no. Not this time." Smiles like a goon but a cute goon. And stands there. 

Miss365 smiles and starts to make her way to the bins. Still smiling like a goon.

Policeman A " Come on [Insert real name of Policeman B here] let's go."

Policeman B to Miss365 " See ya. Stay out of trouble. Or I'll have to come back."

Hmmm dilemmas. How much trouble would I have to get into ? What would constitute as trouble ? How would I make sure Policeman B would return to make sure that I stayed out of trouble ?

Things to ponder....lol.

;)
