After work I walked to Borders on Michigan. I finally exchanged the Billy Jack DVD Lisa gave me for my birthday. Then I went to Walgreens where I bought tissues and breathmints and a large bottle of Aspirin for the tradeshow next week. Walking back to the hotel, I could see the lunar eclipse. It was beautiful. My stomach grumbled and I thought, “instead of ordering room service, I can sit at the bar and order beer and sweet potato fries!” I got back to the hotel at 9:00. Toward the bar I walked, but as usual I just couldn’t get myself to sit down and so instead I went back to my room and ate an Affy Tapple.
A strange thing occurred to me this afternoon. I was in a meeting, discussing the wording on a contract, when I suddenly ‘came to’ and I was shocked to hear words like co-terminous and supercede coming out of my mouth. “How did I get here?” I wondered.
Oh, and I’ve found myself crushing on yet another winner. This fellow has a combover, speaks in a monotone, and hardly ever makes eye contact. I like to think he’s shy but he could be a serial killer. Maybe it’s just that we’ve been working closely with each other the last few days. Or I am just naturally attracted to asexual, introverted, non-threatening, weak, and pasty types.
Finally, I would like to issue a public apology to ATA. The bankruptcy is all my fault. Had I not signed up for the Travel Awards program and had I not started to earn a significant amount of points, ATA would be riding high. I am truly sorry but even more so, I will miss the $69.00 flights to Chicago.
Shy-guy courting tip: steer him around verbally- gently, of course. You already have the upper hand here…so get to know him better through small talk. Smile a lot. You’re very pretty! He’ll be like a bumblebee with a flower.
I’m also for the slow and gentle course. Come on too strong and things could go catastrophically (sp?) wrong. Like mentioned you are very pretty and tall, these things are great when they work for you, again, a smile it the best disarming technique. Good luck

What th’?
I think Donna realizes she’s pretty! Or maybe she forgets sometimes and is so insecure that she needs this site and suck-ups like you to remind her! Can’t understand why there’s so much insecurity, though.
And, Donna – COMB-OVERS?!?!? Christ! How old are the guys you’re eyeing-up these days?
Blue Moon w/ an orange is key! You’re right about that. Next time, skip the Affy tapple? and hit the bar.
Oh, and the $10,000 words? How did you get there? Probably due to your diligence and hard work. It’s not a bad thing.
Enjoy your success!
Besides, if she were truly “just naturally attracted to asexual, introverted, non-threatening, weak, and pasty types,” I’d have snapped her up years ago. 🙂
Oh yes Nathan, I think you missed the one other suckup on this site…. Mr. Linder.
Jason, you can’t be serious. You are the biggest brown noser on this site…bar none!
