On Again - Off Again

I left Mr. Texas so happy on friday, he booked me again for tonight. So I drive the 20 minutes it takes to get from Narnia, and he no-shows. I don't really care about things like this. But tonight was an extra kick in the pants, because I made my notta-date with Adorable Girl completely forgetting about Mr. Texas. An hour before her and I were supposed to meet, I had to cancel. Lame.
     I waited outside Mr. Texas's apartment for 15 minutes, left two voicemails, then drove away. I called Adorable Girl back, to see if she wanted to meet me at this lounge that serves french fries with truffle oil and the most amazing cocktails I've ever had in my life. She agreed to meet me in an hour. Not sure what I'm going to do for an hour. My apartment is 4 blocks away, but I can't go there any more. Ha ha. This is going to take some adjusting. ~It's juuuuuust two weeks~ As I drive away from the spot I parked to call her (cause talking and driving is illegal, and I'm a good girl ;) Work called to say that I was called for a call back to a very high paying out of town job. Fuck. This town is far enough away, and usually pays enough that I end up crashing at a hotel out there. It's a shame I'm just not motivated by money.
    Someone once questioned my greed when I was disappointed that I didn't get the emerald.  To me, receiving gifts from clients has nothing to do with the monetary value. To me it says that they were thinking of me enough to go out of their way, and pick something out. It says that they thought enough to think that I would like 'that', and made the financial sacrifice to buy it for me. Cash means nothing.
       I turned the job down. I knew if I cancelled on this girl again it would eliminate any possibilities of having any type of relationship with her at all. Friends or otherwise.

  2. You mean my notta-date? Cause I'm not dating. It was fine. We've gone out again, and she asked me what I was looking for, and I said I'm not looking to date. I wanna be friends. She agreed. She also asked many of my friends what her chances were. Sooo... We'll see.
