Men bah Hambug

So there was a guy I was semi-interested in, I cooked for him planned 2 b-day parties for him. Basically, was totally enjoying him one of us would start a song the other would finish it. He had a crazy fun awesome sense of humor. Last night, after his second birthday party again I was enjoying hanging out with him, he turned to me and said I need to find someone to date. I jokingly said how about me, there was no response he then asked me about a friend of mine (who actually knows how I feel.) He couldn't figure out why (once we were in my apt and I was preparing his birthday cake that I had already baked and was in the process of icing) I was in such a bad mood.
Today, I had a date that I had no wish to go on. I went anyway, I met my friend this am we went clothes shopping, I explained to her the guy deserved makeup but not my contacts. I also had no time to shower this morning... As I was coming back from shopping as it turns out I had seen him coming off of the train. He had a beard, his bangs were sticking up. He informed me during the course of the date that at one point when he was a young teenager he broke his older brother's dream catcher why b/c he decided it was a form of idol worship. (To quote BSG "are you frakking kidding me?) He also was a rabbi name dropper. Every time we attempted to talk about something he ended up dropping another rabbi's name. I was bored. The best part of the date? I got 2 pieces of pizza for free.

Rant time

So my ex-coworkers and I had an interesting joke... They hate anything with needles especially a needle needed for blood work. I on the other hand couldn't care less. Take as much as you want. All I ask is DO NOT MAKE ME PEE IN A CUP. Ever since I was little I have not been able to do so. I can chug bottles of water and still won't go. I think this practice of peeing a cup was clearly discovered by a man. No woman in their right mind would believe that sitting down and putting something between your legs (which lets face it most women do not usually deal with when they are in the bathroom) is a normal experience. My dad has informed me that I have hated doing this (and to some extent it traumatizes me) every time. So my new job is starting which means they have to do a drug test. Alas that means peeing in a cup. 3 bottles of water half a bottle of zero-ade and I still can't go. They were totally making fun of me. I found it amusing, and frustrating. Finally, I'm able to do what I need to do but it took me almost an hour. I'm sitting there doing jumping jacks in the bathroom walking in the bathroom, still no luck. I don't know if this is something I should practice at home, which is ridiculous in and of itself or just keep dealing with the frustration. I'm sure one of these days I'll figure it out.

I'm a klutz but you knew that.

So last night I was talking to a Saw You at Sinai dude(a Jewish dating website.) I'm a little bored so I'm multitasking as usual. I'm putting away some dried dishes when I got attacked by 3 of my shot glasses. 1 landed in the sink, 1 landed in a bowl that was in the sink, the last hit the floor and shattered. I of course am barefoot in the kitchen cooking (I know it sounds like the beginning of a bad joke) and I was trying to get out of the kitchen but instead managed to step on a piece of glass. Ok so I can't walk and I hobble to my bed and had my cell phone right there (thank g-d)and called my parents who did not pick up. Called my really good friend/neighbor who came up with my keys and helped me. She is awesome. I asked her what she thought and her comment was that I should call Hatzala (for those of you who do not know it is a Jewish ambulance company they generally move faster than 911) They came, three married guys (I knew they were married b/c I asked) they did not have a flashlight (which I found mildly ridiculous how are you an EMT/Paramedic without flashlights) so my friend had to find one in my apt... I rarely use flashlights. Basically it was a wham bam thank you ma'am they think the glass is no longer in there and they left after recommending that I soak my foot in some soapy water and keep an eye on it. I'm doing that. In the meantime I went to the gym today and exercised on a bike attempted an elliptical machine but my foot decided that wasn't going to work. Ah well. Some things never change.
