TGIF

Just quickly checking in. I'm so glad it's Friday. I'm traveling home this weekend and I'm highly excited. Also, I am in talks with a recruiter for a firm I have been desperately trying to land an interview with! I have a really good feeling about this, so you guys keep your fingers crossed for me and send up some prayers! Have a great weekend and Memorial Day!!!!!!!! :-)

My thoughts.

Is anyone else as excited about the SATC movie as I am?! I cannot wait until May 30. My friends and I will make a night of it, with the requisite dirty martinis. Fabulous clothes! Charlotte with child! Jennifer Hudson! Carrie marrying Chris, a.k.a. the one and only Mr. Big (I won't believe that until I see it)! How could I not love it?

Speaking of Mr. Big, I have a theory that every woman has one, and if she doesn't yet, she will. The lone guy that you will never quite get over completely, who you will continue to be madly in love with forever even though you know you two are not meant to be. He still manages to push your buttons when you speak to him, makes your heart skip a beat when you think of him, and can (almost, if the stars are aligned just so) still get it... He refuses to stay away (to be totally candid, partly because you won't force him to). Some deep connection makes it such that he gravitates to you and you to him yet everlasting love is not in the cards. Yes, THAT one. Well, my Big happened to call me this weekend out of the clear blue sky to tell me that he was "still alive and kicking, since you never call." I actually think he knows his role and is playing along, for he behaves, in typical I-can-come-back-into-your-life-at-my-leisure-and-you-will-still-be-there-with-bells-on Big fashion, as if I still "belong to him" (his words, not mine). I had to kindly remind him that I am not obliged to him and he has no entitlements to me or my time, but that I was happy he was still alive and well. ~cue Brit Brit's "Drive Me Crazy"~ If Carrie can marry her Big, can I do the same?

In other news, my brother graduates from high school in a week and a half. He is starting college this summer at an HBCU in the city where I live. I am so excited for him, probably more geeked than he is. What a wonderful time of life! He doesn't even recognize the magnitude of the journey he's about to begin. :-)

I have (what I call) a stalker: some guy I met while out of town with whom I exchanged numbers. He searched my name on facebook and added me as a friend. He sends me facebook messages and texts me every single day saying the exact same thing... "Hey, gorgeous. Have a great day. Call me. XX." I've not responded to any of his texts for the past three weeks (i.e. since I gave him my number), let alone dialed his number to speak to him. How long do you think it will take for the daily texts to stop? I think he almost got me today. I recently scored a new phone from Sprint after mine had an untimely death. Without the benefit of transferring the contacts out of my old phone, I can't specifically avoid Stan's calls/texts because I don't know his number. I have simply went to not answering any calls/texts from his particular neck of the woods. This is not the best plan of action considering there is a gentleman of the same area code with whom I would like to speak. ~sigh~

Apparently, I need to take lessons from Stan because I am about to start stalking this law firm where I had an interview a few weeks ago. I'm talking about making follow-up calls to the follow-up calls! They really need to go ahead and make me an offer...

I am still in love/lust/obsession with T.J. Holmes. La, fall back. LOL.
