HW

I'm generally a glass half empty kind of guy. If someone gives me something, I automatically wonder what's in it for them. So I am not surprised that while things are going great with HW I am constantly waiting to find out what her issue(s) is(are).

This probably isn't the best way to go through life, but I can't change the way I'm wired. I come from a long line of lawyers, so I was raised to always look for the potential liability in every situation.

Things with HW have been going very well. We have a great time together. She's funny, smart, athletic, sexy, well educated, likes dogs, and works hard at a career she enjoys. As far as I know she doesn't have kids and can even swim. As an added bonus, which is something I didn't even realize I was looking for, she doesn't freak out if we don't talk to each other every night. We can go a day or two without making small talk and she' fine. There's no "Oh baby, you didn't call me. What's wrong. You don't like me anymore" or any of that shit.

I wonder what the rub is? I bet she has a penchant for plucking the fur off live kittens, or collects human tongues.

On other fronts, I ran into Bartender last night. I worked late and decided to go out for dinner on my way home. I went to a new place near my house and she was just finishing up a drink on her way to meeting up with friends. We talked for a few minutes and then she asked if I was interested in going to a party that night. I was exhausted and declined, though I think she was just asking to be polite.

Today I was waiting in line at a deli for a sandwich and thought I hear ringing. I pulled my Blackberry out of my pocket and saw that my phone had ghost dialed ME. I hung it up then locked the keys. I'm sure she's wondering why I'm calling her.
