God I love Christopher Lee. Just heard his voice on the TV behind me and perked right up. What a lovely man. Gave him several nods in The Commune.
Okie-dokey, just a little reminder to take tomorrow and New Year's Day to set your intentions and give thanks for all you have! Cindy Baer and I are meeting for Chinese food, our notebooks firmly in hand to imagine our next year. Love it!
Sooooo...is it just me or are Facebook and Myspace the death of dating and romance? I mean, I'm dating several guys right now, and it just kills any hope or excitement or attraction I feel to have to see in the comments section that they have a date with a girl I know three days before ours, or that they sent flowers to someone else, or tell EVERY girl that they "miss their beautiful face"...
Modern life is not making me happy, and what's the point of dating these guys if they can't make me happy? That's what gives a grown man pleasure, right? Putting a genuine smile on my face? I don't know, the whole thing makes me feel tired and desireless tonight. Eff. If I'm not special, I'm not interested. I swear, I look at them wanting to kiss me, and I can SEE the microscopic STD germs. Nothing turns me off more than a ladies man. Done deal.
My Victorian one-woman guy is going to find me in 2008, and be thrilled to have me bring sunshine to his life.
Fine, whatever, I know, "Keep dating the other guys in the meantime Lis". It just seems so weird. I mean, they're all accomplished and good-looking and emotionally unavailable and busy with other women and statistically likely to be diseased... and hopefully not readers of this blog...
Godd I'm feisty tonight. I know, I know, great guys dating me, wah. It's just I'm a woman of emotion and devotion, and I'm tired of meaningless. LA is chock-full of mediocre and superficial salads. I want a steak dinner. I don't even mean marriage, just for god's sake, where's real? Where's not screwing more partners this week than I've screwed in a lifetime? Where's adoration when I'm not in front of them? I'm busy here saving the world, I don't have time for less than I want.

Yeah, it sucks that they are dating other women, but as you point out, it isn't like they weren't doing so before. It's just that you didn't know about it.
So perhaps the solution is to stop looking on Facebook and MySpace at the guys you are dating.
Just my $.02 Missed you at karaoke last night. Give a call re: tonight if you want. And here's my best wishes for a Great '08!
I'm hearing this as a long, rambling voice-mail message.
And that's pretty OK.
I've come to the conclusion that it is time to tell men that this behaviour is wrong. How do we tell them? BY NOT DATING THEM.
I refuse to be treated in such a manner by anyone. I'm sure it's a key reason why I haven't dated in over 3 years, and yet, I'm perfectly fine with that. I'm not holding my breath til I turn blue, but if this sort of man didn't learn from his mother how to respect women, then, I guess it's up to us to tell them that dating a different woman every night of the week is unacceptable to us, and we will not be a part of the gameshow tactics of dating.
I guess I'm feeling feisty myself...
That's what gives a grown man pleasure, right? Putting a genuine smile on my face?
At least that's true of the *smart* ones, anyhoo (IMHO, of course, of course [grin]...)
Facebook just makes it easier than running into the guy in a restaurant while he is dating another woman.
:( Sorry for the dating woes.
