So … I’ve been fairly stressed in the past few weeks, with the move and two really big projects on the horizon, both of which could either die a sweet, sad death in development hell, or could literally change my career. “Embrace the uncertainty,” a friend of mine told me today. Yeah, well, he has a stable paycheck and a great girlfriend and a New York lease which won’t end in a week, so perhaps he’s romanticizing uncertainty a bit.
Anyway, for that reason, I’ve been a bit moody incredibly cranky for the past week. As you might (or might not) have surmised, I’ve curtailed my dating life significantly since Prom King & I broke up in late March, essentially giving it up (with the exception of two or three “recycled” men - guys I’ve dated in the past with whom I’m still great friends. They don’t count!)
But a certain gentleman from San Francisco sent me a gorgeous bouquet of pink roses today just to make me smile. I think they’ll last at least until my movers come next week … and they’ll probably be the ONLY thing making me smile when I’m crying my way through the packing!
It’s always nice when people surprise you with sweet, thoughtful gestures. :)
