(no subject)
i helped lead a kids' bike ride for underprivileged Brooklyn kids today. good times. i have a farmer tan from my cycling jersey, and have no shame about it - wore a dress with flutter sleeves out to dinner (Red Bamboo on west 4th. tasty.). met a cute guy on the ride, had a 50 year old ask for my number. dodged it, as we were riding over Williamsburg Bridge, and hands were not available to type #'s into a phone.
it's always odd when you know you are going to see someone again, probably several times, but have no interest (again, FIFTY YEARS OLD). everyone was riding and talking to one another, and i'm all for that. but what makes you think suddenly i want to give you my #? why are you seeking me out at rest-stops on the route? no no no NO.
i'm a very straight-forward person, but i still have a hard time just coming out with "i'm sorry - i'm just really not interested." is that the best approach?
blah. also, purchased a STACK of cd's tonight. including a bunch of $5 jazz and blues cd's, such as Muddy Waters and Lena Horne.
bedtime with the last few pages of new Sedaris book.
