Getting drunk on a Wednesday is so much fun. Except for the part where you have to wake up at 8 the next morning.... and find yourself in a strange girl's bed... and then have to walk 5km back to your car so that you can drive home, shower, change, and head to work. (That was my story of the past 12 hours in case it wasn't obvious... god damn karaoke night!)

My last girl was a FWB and I closed things off with her to be with new girl. I'm def gonna be careful with this one but that's where it might end up until I meet someone else. I'm open to the idea of sharing, whatever, I just like honesty yanno? Texting is back to normal since we had our talk this morning.

Pre-ordered on Amazon. Why can't I say no to more Thrice stuff??? Well, I DO love live recordings... especially on vinyl...

Update... for anyone who cares.... I've been seeing this girl Beth. We've been texting nonstop every day for about a month and we've hung 5 times, hooked up the last two times... most recently on Saturday night (successful booty call wut wut!!). Last week I invited her to come watch me play baseball, I play in an office league and our playoff game was supposed to be last night (damn rain...). She agrees. Then on Sunday I text her to confirm she can still come, because she's been wishy-washy on plans before, and again she says yes. But then she adds "im not your gf." I'm like, "ok" cus it kind of caught me off guard, I hadn't been calling her my gf or anything. Then it got me thinking, maybe she is trying to make me think about how I'm acting. I'm still kinda seeing other girls too, and we've talked about it. So I tell her that she's the only one I'm interested in right now, and she gets all weirded out... slows way down on the texts for a few days, starts sending one word responses. The baseball game got cancelled due to rain so I never got to see her last night. This morning I say good morning like most days, and mentioned that she's been quiet, is it because of something that came out of my stupid mouth? She says yeah, I really made her uncomfortable the other day. She doesn't want me to focus on her because she feels like she's leading me on. Leading me on, I ask? She says she's still meeting other guys. Including one last night that went "really well." I tell her I don't care if she "keeps fishing" (we met on POF) and ask if we're cool, and she says yeah we are cool. I don't know if I'm cool but I'm going to act it. And I guess I'll get back on POF and start meeting other girls? I do have about 3 conversations going on with others right now, so I shouldn't be so bummed that this one is going the way it is. But I really really like her, can hardly think of anything else!

Yeah I can totally see that. I've been working like shit for the past few weeks I've been seeing and texting this one girl. Can't think of anything else!!

Plenty of Fish seems to work pretty well up here in Canada. I tried eHarmony once when they were offering 3 months for like 10 bucks cus like what the hell... but I had no luck there.

So sad to see these guys go. Easily one of my fav labels along with DW.

Dating websites are a great way to meet people. I'm a big guy myself and had little luck at first. But once I learned how to write up a good profile that makes me sound witty and confident and plays up my mind as opposed to my looks and reclusive habits, things really started to change. Girls started messaging ME! Upload pictures of you out having fun instead of in front of the bathroom mirror. I've probably met about 15 girls through dating websites this summer... most of them have been meh but I met a few great ones. My latest girl is turning out to be pretty great, we've been texting almost nonstop since late August and have hung out at her place a few times, I've been helping her with reno stuff. Got a little fingerbang action last night after we laid some flooring. The one before that turned out to be a squirting fuck buddy. But she was a butterface, and I love making out, so I moved on. New girl is fucking cuuuuute!!! And sweet. And smart. And handy. And funny. And tasteful. I'm smitten! The key is persistence and confidence! My response rate from girls is probably close to 1 in 10 or something, but I just keep messaging girls and eventually someone bites. And once you start meeting ladies and learning your own strong points, your confidence will gradually grow, and it seems that women can almost smell confidence... like a sixth sense. I feel like I'm in my game now. I've been getting out to bars and clubs again and dancing my face off and with my new found confidence girls keep approaching me, where that never happened even a year ago. Have you ever tried repeating mantras or using reminder notes to send yourself subliminal messages? Repeat to yourself "I am ridiculously good looking and ladies can't get enough of me" as often as you can remember and it will help build confidence. Advertising works because of the frequency of the messages they display moreso than the content. McDonald's doesn't make you want a Big Mac by making it look delicious, they make you want it by showing you ads so often that you can't think of anything BUT a Big Mac the next time you are hungry. (As an example....)

Sad to see this guy go, I loved him in every movie he did.

pre-ordered a 180g. was camping last week, guess i got lucky that these went back in stock!

butterface unfortunately. can't have kids too, as a bonus, muahaha. i think i'll see her again despite the face . buncha charmers in here eh?

I banged a tiny 4'7" ginger this week who squirted all over me. She was my first squirter. It was pretty romantic.

Hmm they are hitting Detroit on my birthday... I think it's a sign!

It's been nice and cool here since Saturday, I'm loving the break from the heat!

You'll still wonder what if, it will just be a different what if. "What if I left that crazy broad alone and stayed back home??"

This. She can't even make a few moments for you, that's pretty low. There's always time for a quick text. I've met and dated a lot of girls this year and when it gets to the point where they stop responding to messages, it's basically over. She just doesn't want to say it. I bet she used to respond to your messages pretty damn quickly, am I right?

Long distance relationships are interesting. Maybe I'm a bit jaded but the phrase "distance makes the heart grow fonder" comes to mind, because that's what I feel to be true after experiencing one from start to 'finish.' (we still party regularly) I met a girl in fall of my second year in college, and we fell in love. Months later, her family moved to Arizona, and since she was still dependent on her family, she went with them. With thousands of miles between us we burned through countless phone minute cards, grew calluses on our fingers from nonstop IMing, and racked up the megabytes on our internet plans from all the camming. When she came back to visit in the summer, I ended up proposing to her. She moved back and went to art school here in London, when she could have said no, stayed in the US, and went to the art school in San Fran which she was accepted into. But she said yes and the rest is history... I ruined her life. We were married a year and a half later (making approx 2 years between first date and marriage) and divorced 3.5 years after that. I dunno what I'm trying to say here. I guess just, be careful with LD relationships. I feel like had my ex and I spent the first few years of our relationship together and in person, we might have seen the qualities that ultimately led to the divorce. But we didn't, and we only saw the pieces of each other that we wanted to show... the best parts.

Damn, sounds like that girl gets around...

Lol, it was hilarious. We were about to walk to the venue, and noticed that it was raining. So we went back into the hotel to go down to the parking garage and grab the umbrella out of my car. Only, the elevator wouldn't take us to the parking garage! You were supposed to stick your room key in a slot and then press the button for P1 or P2 or whatever. It just wouldn't work. And then other hotel guests would get in and press a button for like the 20th fucking floor. So after going up and down a few times we tried a different elevator. And then another. And then we realized it was no longer raining so we gave up. I should add that we were really really really baked. Thank god for smoking rooms .

I showed up just as Refused was setting up. Amazing show, they killed it!! They were sounding top fucking notch. Perfect, but not in a lip-sync way, cus you could tell that they improved. I'm so satisfied haha. My whole trip was actually pretty mind blowing. Got trapped in an elevator that refused to go down, got lost in the distillery district as I was walking to the show (damn construction!), showed up right as Refused went on, my girl lost her shoes in the pit.... good times.

I'm kinda like you Madie, had a long relationship right after high school, got married right after college. Didn't really have much dating practice and after it ended I wasn't sure how to go forward. Just started dating again this year. My favourite type of date is a walking date. I like walking in the park, or stroll around downtown. Going for a drink makes for another easy date. Something where neither of you are too preoccupied to talk and get to know each other. Dinner and a movie is actually a terrible first date. I'd save it for third or later. Well, the movie at least, dinner is cool once you're past introductions and stuff. For example this one girl I saw, we walked around for a few hours, took a break on a park bench where we talked more, and then decided to grab some food. One piece of advice I was given that I found very helpful: don't think of it as a date, think of it as going out for a fun time with a new friend. And remember that even if nothing comes of it you will have had an enjoyable time (hopefully) and got some dating practice. As for what to ask? Just ask for more detail about something he says that catches your interest. Just be casual and shoot the shit. *Don't* do what I call the "marriage interview" where you ask all the same kind of questions you'd see on a dating site (do you want kids? do you own a home? what do you do for work? etc). That just makes for a boring date. A few of those questions would be ok to get a bit of info out of him if you know nothing but don't stay on that line of questioning for very long.

While not a true holy grail, it is pretty rare and I finally found & added it to my collection today: Frodus - And We Washed Our Weapons In The Sea on black.

I am just getting a message saying the website is down for maintenance.

Still not live I see...

yeah this is what i was thinking too.... some dude found a bunch and listed them for reasonable price. nope.
