Dating in Dallas....

Update: I completed my 24 hours of solitude- which according to my friends is more than enough time to get over a breakup lol. 



Upon completion- I have since ventured into the world of happy hours! Called up one of my sorors headed and headed to Plano. I figured that if I am to meet someone I must get out there. So I did.  Had a good time, not too much pressure on myself and just chilled out, did not try too hard and voila! 2 numbers and a possible date. 

This morning while deciding to write this particular blog... I ran across a recent article about dating in dallas. It was quite true and entertaining. We have limited date night options besides eating- there are no beaches, mountains or lush green areas. Since we have to eat- most restaurants offer you the down home, southern fried, BBQ sauce dipped, tex-mex options in very large portions- talk about gaining weight if you are on the dating scene. Not to mention the guy that works in a call center making 15/hr calls himself "Account Manager" Thank you corporate America and your exasberated Job Description titles for helping them fake it better! So you think you are going out with a successful guy who is management, nope its just Eric in the call center. Everything is BIGGER in texas, we can afford to stunt a lot easier than new yorkers or californians... we just can... thanks for being a liberal red state!


So what is a girl to do while dating in dallas? Solution: Go to different happy hours everywhere! Meet new people, expand my horizons and if you go on a date- eat a salad lol.  All in all I am happy to report, that I am on my way to "GETTING OVER HIM" There is no time frame on how long it will take to get over a heartbreak. Yeah I still get sad when things remind me of him- but we made memories together. I cannot hole myself up in my suburban apartment and expect to be engaged next year! So ladies, get out there, be your best you, never compromise, never settle.

Let the Dating Games begin.... 
MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOR

In search of magic

She told me something was missing. Not a spark or a twinkle Not a light or a star Not a fire or an ember My magic was missing. The very thing that allowed me to create the me I wanted to be, had long gone missing He took it, I said, and I want it back! I want it all back. Slowly she felt it returning- but she had to figure how to use it again. Never again would she let someone steal her magic. Never again would she freely give of her magic. Never again would she take for granted the magic that was given to her as her prized possession. And when she said it- she felt it- the magic she once knew had returned and oh how it had grew. It was undeniable, unimaginable- she realized that the magic was her, she had never left- she had only forgotten due to his curse. She realized what she had forgotten; she had placed her magic safely on a shelf far, far away from what she called her heart. Hidden from all others, even herself- because she was too weak to control it ...

Sucking at life but #Queening

Unfortunately I am the person who can never make a decision right off. I have so many ideas and thoughts running through my head and there is never just one option. Why are there always so many options? There are options for everything and it kind of freaks me out. I am that person standing at the crossroad with basically 3 other directions to go besides the one you came from. Yeah that is where I am in life right now. I want to go everywhere and do everything besides what I have already done. At least going back is not an option and neither is staying where I am... I have to decide on something at sometime. Even the greatest of leaders suffer from indecision. I am afraid that my indecisiveness might lead into inaction which is unacceptable on any front. That is why I impulse decide usually- due to indecisiveness... just make a decision already! Done. So what is it that I cannot make a decision on? Well right now... this living situation of mine. It's time to move from my apa...
