How good is my life? Let-eth me count the ways!
1. The new season of Sci-Fi Friday started last week (Stargate SG-1, Stargate: Atlantis, and Battlestar Galactica)
2. Both my desktop and laptop are up and running (I still have to get around to networking them though)
3. The house is empty but for me
4. There are a few women desiring my attention
5. I have money in my account (ie: havven't blown it all yet)
6. Finally got my feelings with Shelly straightened out
7. Not wanting any sort of relationship, happy to just be me by myself =)
8. It looks like they are getting closer to drilling for oil on our property and there is a good chance they will hit something (there are wells being drilled to the east and west of us, once they get down to the depth they are shooting for, we should know more)
9. I have lost some weight
10. I have regained some hair (thanks Avacor!)
11. I have been able to help out some friends with my funds
12. I have a small vacation planned
Earlier this evening Shelly and I fed her addiction for El Chico's chips and salsa. She's always fun to sit and bullshit with, and I am glad I was able to put everything in perspective (I told her I just needed a few days of solitude, does anyone ever listen? nooooooo) and just be friends with her. She's having some financial hardships, so me being the friend I am, I offered a room here at the house (I mean, damn. I have 2 bedrooms that are almost always empty). She thought about it then stated she would probably end up making me mad if she started seeing someone.
I hadn't thought of that when I made the offer.
After much consideration, I think it would feel a little odd at first (and I must admit there would be a twinge of jealousy, but nothing more than just regular male ego), but nothing that wouldn't pass (unless the guy was a loser) in short order. I think it would be fun to have her as a roommate, it would certainly be nice to have someone to bullshit with at times (I mean, I am great company for myself and all, but I already know the punch lines to all of my jokes =p).
Her lease is up at the end of September and we are going to New Orleans for Labor Day weekend, so I will see how that goes and decide from there (I booked us a room with 2 double beds, and no they don't vibrate ;p). It's just nice to have someone to hang out and do stuff with and not have to worry about relationships. Yes, I just said that. ;p
I may need to set up one of those "friends with benefits" things before too terribly long. Hopefully with a natural blonde, or maybe redhead. Hmmm......
Okay, time for bed. I have more emails waiting on me at work (I took last Friday off because I was caught up, and have been paying for it ever since).
