So I dressed to kill today. Let my roomie pick out the outfit she's been wanting to dress me up in all week. I'm not the best at picking out my clothes...or just wanting to take the time to do it. But I think I'm like her full grown barbie because she loves to dress me up. Everyone needs someone who'll take care of them like that! Any way, I did look fine, if I do say so myself. How do I know? The guys in my office, who normally take no notice of me and pretty much think of me as one of the guys, took note and spent about 20 minutes harassing me about. I threatened sexual harassment if they didn't go into their cubicles and take a 5 minute "time out".
So about an hour before lunch, I sent an email asking if he was "going to stand me up or meet me for lunch today? If so, name the time and place. It's my treat so if I were you, I'd pick some where really expensive and order the lobster. " He responded we were and he'd pick me up at noon. He was only 3 minutes late...good for him, he's always at least five minutes late! In less than 5 minutes into our car ride, he brought up my visit to Tom (#4 my safe secret #)! I was devastated. How the hell did he find out? I asked if Tom told him...nope, he swore he didn't. It had to be my friend who swore my secret was safe with her. He confirmed it was her. Why did she lie to me? Bummer number one!
As it turns out, he and his gf are still "talking" but he doesn't see it going any where. I'm not sure what that means. But, never the less, bummer number 2. I shouldn't have expected it to be "over" but still, I was hoping. He said she hadn't seemed happy for awhile. I should have shut up more and listened to him talk more, but seemed like everything was ruined as it were. He knew I was going 'cross the pond to visit the guy I ditched him for at our party. And, he kept bringing up Tom (at least 5 times) and wouldn't drop the subject even though I kept changing. I did manage to drop a few hints, like how I had blogged about Tom and ditching my sexy friend who was intelligent, charming and good looking to go off with his mate (that's British for friend). A few other hints but basically, he's still all wrapped up in the drama of his ex and probably will be for a bit. And, I guess that is pretty much the size of it. I was silly to think it would be any different.
On a happier note, my two friends (G & M) stopped by after lunch to bring me cookies... fortune cookies. They went to Pei Wei (man, I love that place) for lunch and were sad I hadn't joined them. They (yes they actually did this) somehow managed to unstuff and restuff the fortune cookies with new fortunes and seal them back up. I immediately suspected they had done it... too funny. Don't know how I knew but before I opened the first, I accused them of it. But, it was well worth their effort. They cheered me up immensely.

I like my lucky numbers! And, while I was disappointed about lunch with my sexy friend and I know I would have had a lovely time with G&M, I don't wish I went to lunch with them. It's good to find out what the scenario is. It's always better to know than not. It was also good to find out that I have friends who don't know how to be discreet and like to blab about my personal life!!!!!
