Part I

So I’ve been busy lately…..

I left my yoga mat at this cheese shop yesterday. And today I left my water canteen at a coffee shop. At this I skipped right over the –stressing over it – part and simply contacted the shop owners to find out if they still had my goods. (They do, and I’m picking them up later this week.) That is how busy I’ve been, I no longer have time to stress, which I guess is pretty nice because worrying about things that don’t really matter is silly anyway.

During all this busy time I’ve been meeting guys here and there. There are those I could be interested in and others no not so much. Now here is my frustration…Why do they wait three or more days to contact after an initial meeting?

A guy I met two Thursdays ago called me last Thursday while I was interviewing Carlo. I wasn’t going to answer since I didn’t recognize the number, so Carlo pretended to be my secretary and took the call for me. (When he picked up the phone, I didn’t think he would really answer it. I thought he was kidding.) Carlo soon expressed that Tony was on the line, and I thought, Tony? I don’t know a Tony. I simply took the phone from Carlo and disconnected it. Then three miuntes later I realized, O that must be the guy I met last week. Yup, I had completely forgotten about him.

However distracted this might make me sound, who waits an entire week to contact another person? You know what that says to me? That says they weren’t interested enough to contact earlier, or that that person lacks the confidence to contact sooner. If a guy does not contact me within two to three days, that guy gets written off, unless he does something to change my mind.

Part II

In correlation to this non-waiting theory, I do not know how to wait a year before contacting a man I’m interested in, especially these days, since I’ll most likely forget him if I don’t contact while it’s fresh in my mind. The longest amount of time I will wait for contact is a day or two. If that person does not contact within a day or two of my reaching out, that person gets placed in the non-priorities pile and he will be very lucky if I reply to his evident response. I guess those situations never end well.

If you don’t care: I don’t care.  It’s that simple. I wonder if this is a New York mind set? Goshhh.

And p.s. my arms are burning from yesterday’s 40 minutes of cardio. I may have to pick up a few cupcakes to sooth the pain. (If this is possibly order yourself a few cupcakes from TheCupcakeStop…they will be the best cupcakes you will ever have in your life.)
