i mean HOW damn cute is THAT??   the one bad thing that happened today (and i'm not completely convinced that it is bad) is that this guy i've been talking to online emailed me today.  we live in the same town and he wanted me to meet him at the river tomorrow and hang out and play with his dog.  normally?  if i'd already MET the guy?  this would be no problem.  i probably wouldn't wear a swimsuit, or if i did, it would be covered by a tank top and shorts.  but having never met the guy in person, the thought of hanging out a the river in a freakin' swimsuit didn't do much for me at all.  i made some self deprecating remark in my return email about "i can't even tell you the last time i wore a swimsuit."  and "see, you have to be totally comfortable with yourself to wear a swimsuit, and even though i've been going to the gym, i'm not quite there yet.  at least not when meeting someone for the first time.  =]  i might be able to dig up some shorts and tank top that are river worthy, though."  funnily enough, i haven't heard back from him.  oh well.  no big deal.  i do find it amusing though that while i had NO intention of meeting some guy i've never met at the river (something there screams "serial killer" to me for some odd reason.  maybe i should stop reading all those john saul and dean koontz books before bed??) i was telling my friend about it and she says "absolutely not.  you can't do that.  i won't allow it."  (ok, she didn't forbid it, but she might as well have.)  i simply said, "yes mother."  then i laughed my fool head off.    what an odd friday.
