Well, I made it through day one on the job, and I think it went pretty well. Most importantly, I liked it. Not getting into specifics here, but I have to say I think I’ve found something I might be really good at. Or, at least, a group I am good at working with.

Sounds cryptic, I know. Sorry. I really have to keep my real life separate from my cyber one.

Here’s something interesting…I ran into Mr. Perfect.

No, he didn’t explain why he didn’t call. Well, actually, I didn’t give him a chance to. He tried to talk to me as I was leaving, but ended up getting called over by some bigwig, so I made my getaway. Yes, that’s me, the chickenshit. Figured it was better to play it cool and act like I don’t care enough to want an explanation than to be a blubbery girl and be all self-righteous about it.

Interestingly, though, we did have a chance to speak, albeit in front of an audience. And it turns out I made a pretty big mistake the day we met. So while I can still think he’s a numero uno creeper for blowing me off the morning after, I can’t be mad at him for…something else.

Argh! I know it’s frustrating that I can’t expound—it frustrates me, too. But trust me, I can’t. Heaven forbid this guy ever find out who I am and stumble over this blog. Can you imagine him reading my entries over the past couple of weeks, when I’ve done something I NEVER do—pretty much spilled my heart all over the web? :shudder:

Interestingly, I kinda think he cared about me forgiving him. It mattered to him.

And I suspect he might even have wanted to see me again. But considering how blue I felt after he didn’t call, no way am I gonna travel down Excitement Road into Ditched-and-Heartbroken Valley again.

Anyway, I’m feeling better on one hand, worse on the other. Why does trying to be smart and sensible leave you feeling so damned miserable? Discuss!

Have a good one—

Mari
