So I kinda had a date last weekend. I say kinda, because I had to come up with an activity and he was going to leave the time up to me as well. Maybe it's a little old-fashioned of me, but I think when a man asks a woman out, he's supposed to have an activity and time in mind. So we went hiking, which is one of my favorite activities. And talked awhile. I thought we were having a nice time. Then he had to open his mouth and say something stupid. Actually, it was more than one stupid thing. He tells me to call when I want to see him, that I have to call. So I ask him "I have to do all the calling?" And he says, yeah, right now, maybe that will change but that's how it is right now. So I asked him if he'd call me if he wants to see me, and he said yeah (though we were using a less polite term cause obviously he didn't pay attention when I told him I'm NOT looking to hook-up.) So I pointed out to him he hasn't called me. (Most of our communication has been through texting.) Sure, I like him, but I don't like him that much. And even if I were crazy about someone, I wouldn't do all the work.

So I went out with my girls and had a blast. Ran into an ex-lover, which was a delightful surprise. Saw my bitchy neighbor, too, which was definitely not delightful. Looking forward to the weekend.
