It's 2:21 AM and I'm pooped, but I have a few updates on the adventures in Cindiland. Here's a bulleted list because I REALLY should be going to sleep:
- Super hot guy from my previous post wrote me an e-mail. It was just a benign reminder to send him an event's info that he was interested in attending. Of course I got all giddy and wrote back... And of course I never heard from him again. Oh well... he could've been a rather exquisite waste of my time.
- My father decided NOT to take the job opportunity in Seattle. I'm frustrated, but he has made up his mind and already convinced himself there are "too many loose ends" here for him to just pack up and leave. Not sure what that means, but so be it.
- However... my daddy has a date! A daaaaaate! My super good deed of the YEAR has been done. I got my old man a date with my good friend Janet's mom:) YAY! He's so cute too... He's coming over to my house tomorrow early and we're driving around the area he wants to take her to because he's not very familiar with it and doesn't want to get lost and look goofy. He's so cute!
- Grad school apps are all in and I haven't heard anything from anyone. I don't expect to until end of February - April. The GRE folks screwed up AGAIN and sent my scores to Wisconsin instead of Michigan.... Alas... Who ARE these people?!?!?!
- I had a good talk with a boy in my Victorian poetry class. More about this later, but I think I helped him overcome some insecurities about being bi-lingual and of a different culture. Plus, I appreciate him searching for a deeper meaning and following his bliss. I want to clone him and move to that city:)
- Did I mention my dad has a date??!?!?! I'm SO excited that I just can't hide it. Truth is... I'd love to move away knowing that he has someone wonderful in his life. So fine, it's a slightly self-serving act... SLIGHTLY.
- I have a roomie. My friend Daniella is going through a tough time and she's now staying in my spare room. I haven't had a roommate since my sister moved away so I guess this is a bit of an adjustment. She's 21... aaawwww... I know her from dance class and mutual friends and she's a really good girl. Holy schnykes... she's my sister's replacement. I have issues.
....... huh huh? Pretty good word, eh? It's okay to be impressed.
I have sleepy now. Good night.

I am beyond impressed with your big wordability. It's way too early for words with more than two syllables. But your daddy has a date, yay! :)
I love your words! And the fact you got giddy over a business email melts my heart... He's clearly missing something great right in front of him. Ahh men. We are very strange sometimes. :).
I'm so excited that both you appreciate my wordy genius. Yay Vegetable Assassin! My daddy has a date! I'll have to write an update tomorrow about it:)
J-face - you're too sweet. I'm giddy just writing this.
congrats to you for the successful intervention. :). hope your dad has a good time.. thats nice.. that was a lot of new words.. but then in that definition about dream. what about people who dont see anydreams. its really been a while and i really havent seen any dreams.. so i guess i have no scope for improvement in my life .. LOL :P
Ciiinndyyy!!!!
So...when you wrote back to super-hot guy did you fumble and misspell words, spill coffee on the keyboard, drop the mouse and fall off your chair, hitting your head on the desk as you arose? I'm still a bit smitten with how things played out the last time, it was rather endearing.
I know, I'm such a $**&$ sometimes, huh?
Too bad about your dad not taking the job, but perhaps comfort is his own bliss and he's simply following it.
Speaking of DH Lawrence, you commented to me on my blog that, "Lawrence would say you're an interesting combo of 'blood' and 'mind'... you know... mental and earthy."
I hope you don't mind me asking here, but could you explain further? If you'd rather answer later by e-mail I'm good with that. :)
I could be wrong but I think I heard something somewhere about your dad having a date. Hmm.
"Go daddy,
Go daddy,
You own it,
You know it.
It's your birthday,
Gonna party like it's your birthday."
Hee hee!
Hey Cindy,
In the spirit of your "big girl panties", I thought you might appreciate this link.

Barry and I was LMAO and we of course thought of you. Hope you enjoy.
BTW - I've been a little absent lately. I promise to get back into the swing of things. I hope all is well.
Super hot guy, a new roomie, your dad has a date, and you helped a fellow student. Damn it girl your plate is full. Good job with the assist for your dad I am sure he will enjoy himself!! The roomie sounds groovy but I have begun to like living by myself for the first time in years and years!! Nothing like blasting music as loud as you like and lounging in your boxers!!! My version of "big girl panties". Big Boy Boxers!! Hope you get into the school that you want but then again they are all good schools and they will only enrich their population by your matriculation. I had to look up your word. Learned something new today! Gracias!!
Hey Cindy-I've been reading through your latest posts. Sounds like life and literature are stimulating a lot of thought and reflection. Unusual Lawrence quote. Unusual to hear him sounding so quixotic. Take care.
Hey girlie!
I've left you an award on my "I've been awarded #1" post.
I hope you're having a great week!
Cindy, loves her words! Love 'em too!:) It appears that things are going pretty exciting for you and your dad! Woohoo! Keep us updated! :)
