Dear Diary,
Some events occurred today that got me excited for a friend. The funny thing about this Diary, is that I now have occasionally received notes, etc addressed to me as "Dear Diary." And I get to hear what is happening in the lives of my readership. I enjoy it! (So don't be deterred).
And one such writer had some exciting news today about the writer's own dating life. Congratulations, Friend. Looking forward to seeing what unfolds, now. But it also causes me to reflect on all the rules that people put on dating.
You see, I am a sucker for those self-help books. I've read several and followed the rules and suggestions and guidelines. Sometimes I see results, sometimes nothing changes. I've also heard people say that when you least expect it, that's when it happens. So there are times when I disregard the rules, and think nothing of dating. (Which is mostly what's happening now, because of the speed and velocity at which my life is clipping along this semester). And still, with that advice nothing happens. And yet, here's my friend who is not being terribly proactive with the dating, and big news hits for her.
So for all the advice handed one another, I think it's safe to say that Humphrey Bogart (or rather Rick Blaine) was right in that "The problems of three little people..." (You, Me, and that guy I'm interested in) "...don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world."
Someday, I'll understand that...
Maybe not today,...
Maybe not tomorrow....
(But soon and for the rest of my life)
