Update

Hello Ladies…

Man I always feel so much better about myself saying that.

Oh. And hi Michael. Didn’t see you there,… buried underneath all those ladies… =) But I’m sure you don’t mind.

I wish I made lady friends IRL as easily as I do at the diary site. But I am digressing like a mofo.

A lot has been happening, but I’ll do my best to catch my lady fans up on the life of Bruce. And Michael.

Every month at my school I am taking a different set of 2 classes. Last month was Calculus and Programming 1.

This month is Linear Algebra and Programming 2. The classes are hard, but it’s the schedule that really sucks. I do a 5PM – 1AM, followed by a 9AM – 5PM… so I end up being really tired. But I am surviving.

I got a B in Calculus… and what’s worse… the grades round up, and an A is a 90… and I got a 89.40%… If I had just gotten .10% higher, I would have gotten an A…

Fuck you, Calculus. B+ will suffice though… But dammit! I wanted to be a 4.0 student……….

I’m really making progress with my workouts. It’s almost time for another picture. But this time I’ll put a Before1, Before2, and After picture. I think that will REALLY show the progress.

Although… I’ve noticed that the tanner I get, the more WHITE the scars I have become. I have a scar on my chest that’s slowly turning white the more I tan. It’s… strange. It’s on my uhhh… “Right boob”. Yea. ’nuff said. About the length of a pinky finger.

Got it in the Army. Does that attract women? Army scars? I don’t know. I hope so.

My birthday is on the 10th, Saturday. Helen’s birthday is on the 11th, Sunday, but due to her being on the other side of the planet, we’ll be having our birthdays at the same time. That’s pretty cool.

Happy Birthday, btw, Helen. =)

Then on Monday is Brooke’s birthday. Happy Birthday, Brooke.

I’ll be turning 25. Quarter-centennial. That’ll be interesting.

I have a username on OKCupid, which is a dating site, and every week they give you a list called “Quiverbox” of potential matches. I messaged this girl that was in my Quiverbox this week… and believe it or not, I got a response. I was surprised. Normally anybody I message NEVER responds. Everrrrrrrr. I could message them saying “Your head’s on fire.” and I wont get anything back. Seriously.

I guess that’s how women deal with guys they don’t feel they match up with. Just ignore them.

Anyways, it was nice to actually get a response. Nice enough to talk about it in my OD.

But, it did get me to thinking, a dangerous past time of mine, and I had an epiphany.

What if… and believe me, this is a big “What if”,…

But what if I actually GOT a girlfriend?

What the fuck would I do?

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

I don’t know.

I’m like the Trix bunny rabbit. I spend my life TRYING to get a g/f, but I don’t ever actually GET one.

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if me getting a girlfriend would result in the universe rejecting the anomaly and all life as we know it would just end.

So here’s my current emergency “Oh shit I just got a girlfriend” plan.

YOU ladies have been converted into my “Panel of Judges”. I will talk about my ideas of what I should do for her, or give her, or buy her, or places to take her, etc…

And you ladies could feed me input. Ideas.

And I LISTEN.

And then I ste–er… ‘borrow’ your ideas, and she’s a happy girlfriend, and I’m not a sucky boyfriend. And you ladies get to see if your ideas went over good or bad and then gloat and say “Yea that was my idea”. Live out some of your daydreams through that girl. lol.

And if I ever got accustomed to being a boyfriend, then I’d go solo after that.

Pretty smart idea, eh?

I just don’t want to mess up any such opportunity.

But seriously, what WOULD I do if I got a girlfriend?

I haven’t had one since Jan. 2003.

I can’t believe I never thought of this before.

All that talk about being a great boyfriend, when the truth is… I think I’ve forgotten.

And with my feelings for Nicki… what if I screwed up by calling her Nicki or something. THAT would suck.

Okay. I think I’m done.

Can’t say I mind at all. 😀 It’s always ladies night at your OD! I think female friends can be pretty good training wheels for getting started, but really I bet it will come naturally to you when you do get a girlfriend. Not that I’m an expert, I’ve only had one and that was years ago. A B+ in calc is still impressive, especially if you’ve probably not taken math for a while.

OK Cupid is pretty fun for a while but it can get to be too much like shopping at times – don’t get hooked! Happy Birthday, btw. 🙂

5pm to 1am? Classes? WHAT? Scars definitely attract. Happy (belated) birthday to you, too 🙂 Your emergency plan is actually not a bad idea. You know there’s plenty of us here who want to see you hooked up and happy 🙂

I think whoever this girl would be, would be one lucky and happy person by all these ideas being put into place. lol I think if you had a girlfriend you might have trouble for a while though, just because of the Nicki thing unfortunately. But Im confident you would get through it.
