Oh, Too Cute

Okay, so I have noticed this about myself that might be strange? I have great difficulty dancing with someone who I find cute, but no problem dancing with the whatever guys. Perhaps this is because I have to be chest to chest (yes touching) and cheek to cheek (not that one...).

It's a good way to see if they are in shape though...

Crap

Crap, half of you are saying ditch Aquaguppy, the other half is saying give him a chance. Come on guys!!!

Okay Really?

Okay really? Aquaguppy wanted to meet up today. I said, I would be free for 1 hour. He said he probably can't (waiting for me to beg or plead or something) and wants to do something next weekend. Silly boy, I replied with, "K, have a good week." Get in the friend bucket!! Enough of this nonsense, next time I see him which is TBD since I am quite busy, going to lay it out.

Went to an event at the dance studio tonight. Not many of the students were there, but it was fun. Chatted with a fellow student (guy who sometimes dances as a girl when there aren't enough girls) who has danced with Dance Guy before. He said Dance Guy seems like he lacks confidence. At first I thought, "Hmm, that's a plus." However, Ivan pointed out after the last guy with no confidence (Odie), I shouldn't get too excited.

Meeting up with the lawyer later this week. As of right now it is lunch, but I have a feeling it might morph into dinner if I am okay with it. We'll see how I feel later this week.

Web 2.0 at Moscone is this week. I am going. I bet it'll be interesting.

Hmm, How To Fix This?

So, Aquaguppy invited me to a party filled with couples tonight.  Is he insinuating that we are a couple?
  1. He's still inviting me to things?
  2. What's with all these couple events?
  3. Um, how do I transition this to, "Hey Pal?"
He is persistent. Perhaps I should meet up with him at some point and give him the friend vibe? I really thought I did it the last time I saw him. How to do this so there is no doubt in his mind?

Fun!! I Should Go Out More Often

I am seriously tired and still smell like vodka. Actually, my whole room smells like vodka with a hint of lemon (the lemon part is quite curious). Nevertheless, last night was awesome.

Networking Event
I went to the event at Supperclub by myself and am glad I went. Got there kinda early and got a good seat (close to the door from the bar). Chatted with a girl (who was also by herself) sitting 5 feet away from me. Uh, interesting girl...she didn't go to any of the schools (it was a school specific networking event). The boys started coming in and that's when I got distracted...poor girl, not many guys approached her. Talked to a couple of geeks, glad they got the "shoo" hint.

Next, the doctors approached. There were 3 of them (to start off with, the rest of the crew showed up later). They all had lovely schools under their belts (Yale, Johns Hopkins, Harvard, etc). 2 really got my attention; 1 was MD/MBA and really cute, too cute...if he was on "Grey's Anatomy" his name would be McYummy. Girls were throwing themselves at him. The other was super nice and cute, but not as good looking as the 1st one. Pretty sure he was about to get my contact info since he reached in his pocket for his phone, but the non socially skilled guys jumped in the conversation. Argh. So, now, doctor #2 wants to add me to facebook and meet up sometime (uh, he thinks he can remember my name on his own)?

One of the doctors asked me if I was just going to sit in my spot all night and wait for people to approach me...uh, yeah? It's working isn't it? PS, he wasn't even the first dude to say something like that. All the doctors were very nice. I offered to be wing girl for a couple of them because they really needed help (think super smart, shy, awkward). One of the guys who I offered wing girl services to got my contact info. Wouldn't be surprised if I see these guys again intentionally or because we are on the same party circuit.

Cute boy from my dance class (one of the newbies...seen him 2x?) came in. I grabbed his arm and he gave me a big hug. Chatted briefly and all the doctors disbursed, but came back after dance cutie went to catch up with his boys. Learned dance cutie has a PhD in biotech or something like that...brains = hotter. He wanted to buy me a drink, but I didn't feel like drinking (damn Asian burn). I was always in his line of sight even though I was trying not to be. Caught him looking at me (or maybe the 6 dudes surrounding me at any given moment...I am not sure if he thought I knew these guys before last night). He asked me what I was doing after the event, I said probably meet up with my roommate and that was it...hmm. He's one of the guys I mentioned from previous posts...pretty sure he is interested (or maybe just likes to look at me), let's see if he asks me out now. He totally should... However, I do find it curious that he did not seek me out to say goodnight when he was on his way out...hmm.

Met some cool people. Ran into Christie (which was totally random, love her, she is fun) and her husband when they were on their way out.

Theory
It's quite interesting being a girl in SF. I sat down by myself and boys kept coming over. It was like I was holding court or something. Of course not all of them were princes and there were a couple of frogs. SF is too easy. I was wearing sneakers in a club and it didn't even matter. I actually think I do much better when I go places alone. It's better to go somewhere by yourself vs. with a/some nasty girl(s).

Question
So, how does this work...let's use the doctors as an example. 6 doctors, but I would only be interested in going out with 2 of them. How do they figure out who's got dibs? How do I figure out who is interested and up for grabs? This is good info to have for next time a situation like this occurs.

Part 2 of the Evening
Met up with my roomie after the networking event. I am THE ultimate wing girl :) It was a ton of fun, but nothing of interest to report. See below...dudes of the Marina (at Circa)
  • Roommate's friend (calm down kids, not Odie)
  • Really tall Morrocan guy who thinks I am pretty (he was so tall that I didn't see him, ran into him, and got tripped up by his giant shoes)
  • Dorky guy I felt bad for so I gave him my number (he was working sooooo hard)
  • Ex Citi guy who wants to meet up for coffee (did not give him my number, he thinks he will remember my name and add me to facebook...good luck with that drunk guy)
  • Touchy guy (eww, don't touch, but thanks for the drink)
Let's count potential boys (as of right now) that I would like to know more about
  1. The Lawyer Guy I am supposed to meet up with for lunch this coming week
  2. 2 of the doctors
  3. Dance cutie (Dance guy)
Aquaguppy wants to meet up this weekend. He is sooo nice, but really not my type. So many other fish in the sea and the bar just got raised WAY up.

There is no point in counting the boys who have no future potential...don't hate the player, hate the game...

Great Night

It was a great night. Trashed. More in the am/noon...
