Kickball and Dating
Thursday, May 26, 2005It's Thursday, that means it's Kickball day. The Your Team Sucks crew will meet up tomnight and see if we can get a win after the humiliating 8-0 loss last week. At least we drank the members of the other team under the table in a party last friday ;O) If you want to read a recap of the game, check out our team blog page in the blogs linked.
Gotta love it. People getting together to drink and play a game most of us haven't played since we were like 10. I have the Jell-o Beans all ready. I made Cherry and Bacardi Silver this time instead of Lemon and Limón. We'll see if they go over as well as the last ones!
So my dilemma with the whole Kickball thing is that it's really the first opportunity I've had in quite a while to meet some new poeple and have fun. I've been way to busy lately to have a life, so this is kinda weird.
The big thing for me is that I need to get out and start dating again. The last two people I've dated have been polar opposites. One was OCD with anxiety disorder and an extremely huge fear of getting hurt. That relationship cost me some friends. I still hang out with her once and a while. Mostly because I'm too nice to just say screw off you're annoying because sometimes she's not. The other girl was very conservative in nature, very nice, but kind of a slob. Drives me nuts with her warped persepctive of time (to her 20 minutes seems like 5) and the occasional whineyness. Her idea of a fun time is sitting in front of the TV all night. Not so much for me.
So last week I met all these new people at Kickball and the bar after. On friday at a party thrown by some fellow kickballers, I met this redhead. We talked a bunch, even got her number. (Well maybe, she gave me what she thought was maybe her cell phone, and then gave me her work number... what should I think of that?) I haven't had an opportunity to call, but she said she was going to join Kickball. So, I'm hoping she'll be there tonight. If she is, I'm not sure what I'm going to do.
Anyone got some advice to help me land a date with The Redhead?

Us Red Heads are hard to tag. So you need to unique, witty, outrageous without being corny or pathetic. Good luck.
I want to play Kick Ball...why can't maine have one of these :( -

Thanks for the advice on my blog about the tree. Fortunately, when I got home, it had already been taken care of by a relative. =o)
As for the redhead, don't try anything that doesn't come naturally to your personality because if she doesn't click with you when you're relaxed being yourself, then it wouldn't be fun to hook up anyway. Hope you get a date! =o) -

I am not a red head and I was in that boat too. Meeting someone that doesn't really match your personality so when I met this recent one who seems to be perfect for me & interested with me at the same time, I was looking for the catch. :) - hopefully there is none.
I wish you luck. I find that hanging around with the person, doing the phone and e-mailing on top of being with them helps to know the person a lot better.
Call the girl :)
