Yesterday had trip out of town to my alma mater for recruiting purposes. Our firms tries to send alums so that there is a common bond between recruiter and student. I am 41 and it has been exactly 20 yrs since I graduated. Just looking at the college students made me feel so old. I swear, it was just yesterday that I was in their shoes. At the banquet, some of the grad students were talking about how they got engaged and I had to just bite my tongue to keep from saying "JUst wait until 15 yrs goes by and one of you drops the bomb....enjoy this bliss while you can...." I felt so darn cynical.
Anyway, after seeing those college girls, decided I needed to join a gym and get a face lift if this is what I am competing with if H and I don't work out.
Was down today as hadn't heard from H. He had been emailing me as of late and nothing yesterday or today. He called a few minutes ago and said something along the lines of "so how come you aren't emailing me...." Once again, wanted to scream "H, I am in the process of DB'ing, and I cannot under any circumstances initiate email with you as you would view me as pursuing!!!!!!....i don't remember exactly what I said, just kinda passed over it and made light of it.
I did tell him I thought I needed to join a gym after seeing the college gals, and he said "I guess you could find you a man there" and I just said, "ya never know". I hate these games. I will not, however allow him to think that I am just gonna sit around and wait for ever!!!! NOt healthy for either of us..(I don't think).
I really am thinking about the gym thing - could do it on the days that I don't have kids.
oh, and if anyone needs some entertaining threads to read, check out LL's prior threads linked on Pam's current thread. Hysterical. I am so glad her H came back.
