Defriend

Only in this surreal online world can you so bluntly "defriend" someone. I never thought it would happen to me. I also never thought I'd be so hurt. Over the weekend, as I was conducting my regular round of Facebook stalking - I mean, um, catching up with old friends - I hit a roadblock. Much to my dismay, I was no longer friends with someone. The nerve. So what if I broke up with your brother? I think I still deserve access to your wall.

High heel race

There are times I think I was not meant to be a girl. Like this morning, when I decided to spice it up and wear sexy boots over my jeans. I left my apartment, barely made it up the stairs, saw a bus approaching and thought, "There is no way in hell I am running to catch that." The drag racers in Dupont wear heels far better than I.

Skim and whip

I ordered a pumpkin coffee drink at Caribou today. I asked for it with skim milk. The man behind the counter then said, "No whip?" I replied, in a flirty tone I later regretted, "Oh no, I want the whip." He smirked and I couldn't quite figure out if it was because of my hypocrisy in ordering nonfat milk topped with fatty whipped cream, or if it was because the thought of a whip excited him. A disturbing moment to say the least.

Drunk wedding guy

On the shuttle bus back from the wedding I attended last night, I mistakenly decided to sit next to "drunk wedding guy." This wouldn't have been a huge deal, except for the fact that he was also "horny as hell wedding guy." As the shuttle pulled away from the reception, he leaned in, a hand creeping up my leg, and said, "Hey, it's dark." I wondered how many girls he actually gets feel up using that line. I replied, "Hey, you have a girlfriend."

Doggie bag

I was so tired at one point today that I thought a black plastic bag was a dog. And not just a dog, but a cute little puppy, most likely a black lab. I almost went over to the man carrying the "dog" to say how cute his "dog" was. Then I got a double espresso, and all was well again.

Orgy

They are in the process of renovating our gym. This morning, my spin instructor informed the class that they are building a co-ed Turkish bath as part of the renovation. From the back row of bikes, some guy yelled out, "Will that affect the classes?" Now, when she said "co-ed Turkish bath," I'm pretty sure the last thing on my mind was "the classes."

Chick flick

Here's a tip. If you're a woman. A single woman. In her late 20's. Who just had a rough couple weeks. A great couple weeks though. You're confused. You're sad. You're aroused. You're every emotion at once. DO NOT. I repeat, DO NOT watch the Sex & the City movie. Alone. In your one bedroom apartment. With ice cream. Period.
