Someone old and someone new...

Ok, so I’m a little superficial... I know you’re shocked. But it’s true, that’s what happens when you worship the Church of Madonna and pray to the Gods of Fashion and Shoes. So what’s a girl to do when she has to decide between a life she knows and loves and well... what everyone else has...

I met a guy and he’s normal, like really normal. There’s nothing eccentric about him, he’s funny, nice, smart, cute and normal. I’m just not sure that I could actually date him because he is so normal, the worst part is that I do kind of like him. He’s sort of like the guy next door, but I’m really the farthest thing from the girl next door. I’m kind of like the kid they kept locked in the attic too long and she turned a little loopy.
I feel like the playing field between us is just so uneven that I couldn’t play games with. He isn’t the type that would want to go a few rounds of “who’s the better manipulator?” with me. I think the biggest problem is that when a guy is straight up boyfriend material he makes for terrible blog material.

I’m not sure what to do about Normal Guy, I really do like him, but I really hate the idea of white picket fences, 2 dogs and a cat. Especially because animals and I don’t get along, they don’t like me because they know I like to wear fur coats. It’s a Cruella Deville thing, all she ever wanted to do was be on the cutting edge of fashion, and she's painted as the bad person. It’s like 101 Dalmatians was produced by PETA or something.

On the topic of superficial blog material I’ve talked to and seen a fair amount of Cheap Thrill in the past few weeks, yes that Cheap Thrill.
I’ve missed his outlandish cockiness, it entertains me. In an effort to get me to agree to see him a few weeks ago he reminded me that he has only 6% body fat - that didn’t so much make me want to see him as much as it made me want to go to the gym. But I ran into him on Sunday and had a quick coffee with him today, and in the midst of the midterm hell I’m in he actually had me laughing. Real laughing too, not just the laugh I do to humour people most of the time.

Who knows where things will go with Normal Guy, but for now let’s welcome back Cheap Thrill with open arms and guarded optimism, because after all he is first and foremost here for the cheap thrills.
