Sunny Side Up
Since I have the day off of work with nothing to do and it’s so incredibly gorgeous outside, I’ve decided to perch on my patio with my laptop. Yes, I realize this sounds somewhat insane, but such is my life.
Let’s see…I’ve been promoted in position at work again, but no raise with this one as of yet…though I am hopeful a raise will be forthcoming. So now I handle any and all calls that come through, residential and business, phone, internet and tv-related. So it’s very interesting.
My father’s unemployment completely ran out so now I’m responsible for paying the entire rent, all utilities, all of my bills PLUS all of his. I’ve done the math and I basically have to work overtime to put food on the table…which is not a good feeling.
In other news, there might actually be a couple of women interested in me, but I don’t know yet where I stand as far as interest in them. I’m wicked old-fashioned and I need to really get to know someone before I pursue anything with anybody at this point. I’ve finally learned to be cautious with my heart and my soul. Maybe that makes me incredible boring, but I’m the kind of woman who gives herself fully when I care for another. That kind of gift deserves caution and restraint.
I know if I embark on a relationship with someone, they’re going to need to be as equally responsible as I am, but still know how to have fun – especially on a budget. They need to be able to handle their own lives, but want to share it as well as create a new life with me. They also really need to appreciate the basic, small stuff most people don’t even think about anymore. Trust. Honesty. Respect. Fidelity. They need to be past that point in their life where everything is all fun and games.
They also need to be really open-minded. Especially in bed. But that’s a digression for another time and post.
Yeah, I want a Unicorn…but since I believe I am one of those fabled Unicorns myself, I deserve someone who matches me in all the important ways.
