just read about your mom. I'll pray that her health will be restored by our Lord. No amount of intials and acronyms after a name can top what he can make happen as you are aware.
be well and dont be overly worried ...el foxxo, or whatever you call yourself ..haha.
Oh and college musician friend texted me last night and asked me out for tonight. I told him I had plans. I am supposed to make cookies with the kids, but I didn't say that, just said I had plans. I am not a game player, but if you haven't spoken to me in a week and then when you do it is for a date the next day, I think that is a little abrupt...fine if we had talked at some point during the week. Maybe I overthink...but anyway I did have plans!
I like and agree with your logic on this - and I'm taking notes as well.

Animation is so cool nowdays. One that I find interesting in the way it is drawn is Jacob Two-Two on Qubo. I like the extra thick lines used on the body's. Jane and the Dragon is another favorite in our house on Qubo. The dialog of match guy's cartoons is maybe a bit more like Rin and Stimpy (which was hilarious).
How does his political and religious views match up with yours?
1)I looked at his Facebook, he has a page for Sean Hannity and Sarah Palin (good, I am a conservative)
2)Lists himself as Christian looking for Christian
3)He likes Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and comedies like Wedding Crashers and Old School
4)He works for an advertising firm by day, does his own animation, teaches animation at a college, and is writing a graphic novel. Like the fact that he is very active/goal-oriented. Has his stuff together it seems. And is successful, as he has been nominated for the George Lucas award 3 times
5)He runs road races, 5ks, relay races, etc.
6)He is funny
7) He wants to go out with me, he has been in consistent-but-not-stalker level contact with me, and he has not made any lewd suggestions whatsover....
I found his animations funny too. If you go to 'atom films' and do a search on him, you can see his star wars shorts. They are quite amusing...
That sure takes some of the sting off of going through a divorce.
Dont be too let down if he is a Corn Husker fan.
Go Ducks!
Go Beavers!
Actually Kerry, he IS a Cornhusker. He went to UNL for his Undergrad, then went to Vancouver Film School to study animation.
Actually, he was a bit of a controversial figure at UNL. He did the editorial cartoons. Back in the mid 90s there was a lot of 'drama' involving husker players (Lawrence Phillips etc.). He skewered them in the paper and Coach Osborne 'ordered' the paper to stop printing them!?!
Anyway, on to other things. I went out and got my nails done, my CMF (college music friend) called to see what was up. Apparently he had time to kill this evening and wanted me to meet for a drink. I told him I was meeting friends after doing my nails and he wanted me to skip getting my nails done to have a drink with him.
Don't get me wrong, I would be glad to grab a drink sometime. But I already told him, not tonight...kind of annoying. He called later while I was out shopping and I let it go to vm.
Well BBJ, if someone says to me they would rather do their nails than meet for a drink...I would get it....YOU are not into him. There is nothing wrong with that. You say you would be glad to have a drink with him sometime (that does not sound too enthisiastic). Just tell him you are not interested (although he should have figured it out). I see a pattern... you are nice...too nice. I got a hunch you do not really like this guy (it may be an ego boost) or you would have stopped with the nails and met him for a drink. My suggestion to you BBJ is be honest and true to your feelings. This way you will avoid upchucking and being annoyed by persistent men.

I like him as a friend, and who knows from there. He does not give me that initial 'spark' that I would like to have when I am meeting a man. Maybe b/c I know him from back in college.
The other part is, he is seeing someone. He told me that the day we met for lunch. When I thought we were just two friends catching up...they are casually dating, according to him. But, when he met me that day she was off to Chicago. Then last week he wanted to meet for a 'quick drink' while he was out dropping off business cards at bars.
That tells me he wanted to meet me when he was doing something else so he had a cover story for her. (Maybe I do have some lingering baggage from being cheated on?) Then he canceled when he got the gig offer.
Then there was no contact for 7 days, until Thursday night when he wanted to meet up Friday. He was in Omaha to pick up a guitar from a music store and then later to stop by a bar and talk with the manager about a possible job...
I just see a pattern of him trying to fit me in when he has a little free time to waste. I would say he is not that in to me. I told him I had plans for last night and he was bugging me to meet up anyway. He basically told me on the phone yesterday that he had an hour to kill waiting for the bar manager so did I want to meet up...
