Old Men Suck TOO!

What does it mean when you, as an attractive, 27-year-old female get rejected by an old wrinkly man?

A co-worker and I went to this golf tournament luncheon today (because I'm the world's worst golfer, I didn't play - but I'll always eat). Anywhosits, by the time we got there (Hello? Can you say LA Traffic?), there were no raffle tickets left, and quite honestly, other than the target peeps I needed to brown-nose, I only went for the open bar and raffle prizes because that's how I do. So, I decided to pull a Rachelesque Anna-Nicole: flirt with the little old man sitting next to me who had raffle tickets coming out his ears (apparently he thought they would compliment the hair that was also coming out of his ears). Sure enough, he won himself a whole giant basket full of, well, what else, but teddy bears (I don't get it either). I'm not 16 but I had my heart set on one of the teddy bears - it was my mission and he, so I thought, was an easy target.

I was SADLY mistaken and my ego was quickly put into check. After he won, I said, "Oooooh. Those are so cute! I wish I had one." He smiled and nodded and then pulled the basket of bears CLOSER TO HIM. I turned to my co-worker and said, "Holy shit. I just got denied by Mister Magoo!" Someone should have just smacked me in my face with a frying pan - at least those scars are visible!! But, I'm a fighter, after this entry I'll never think of it again. I may have to drink myself into oblivion tonight but then the ultimate rejection will pass. I guess it could have been worse: he could have been a old man who was just released from prison. Ah, good times.

Update for you crazies who actually read this: BS called again last night and this morning and was talking like nothing was wrong. Short term memory maybe? At first that's what I thought, then he threw in a nifty little mention of the fact that he might have to move back to CINCINNATI, OHIO PERMANENTLY in the next two months. Um, WTF? So, I pretty much hung up on him and told him that I would speak with him later because I was absolutely disgusted with the nonchalant mention. WHAT THE HELL IS HE THINKING? "Oh, want to do dinner on Tuesday? By the way, I'm moving across country in a month or two." Unbelievable. As I've stated many a times before, men NEVER cease to amaze me.

So, I'm treating myself to a free meal and PLENTY of free margaritas tonight with Midget Matt. Perhaps if I look hot, he'll restore my ego. He'll get nothing out of it except a big bill but I don't consider that cruel - I call it KARMA.

So, this chick is signing out until Sunday or so. Oh, I also want to send a shout out to my beautiful little sister, Jill, who turned the big 1-9 yesterday. Yup - I'm getting old.

Bring on the margaritas.....
