Same Suit Sam here, Friday night, waiting for a cousin to come over (she's almost a Federal Judge) to check out my new apartment and then go for dinner at the best Thai place in NYC, which happens to be down the road from me in Sunnyside, next door in Woodside. All good now with girl from last entry. Not good exactly, just not happening - she's seeing someone, I sent her two mixed CDs, pretty awesome ones, but haven't heard from her. That's ok, if she doesn't even write to say thanks. I think at this point she doesn't want to encourage me anymore, and even that sort of contact could do that, based on what she knows of me. However, my infatuation with her ended as suddenly as it began. If someone is genuinely seeing someone and happy, then I'd not gonna fall for them, because I know it's totally hopeless then, and so there's no point.

On Monday, a week ago tomorrow, this new girl started at work, on my team, who is so shmokin' that I instantly forgot my SF crush, and started nervously making friends with this new girl. She's unforgivably young and as the much older guy, I've got to play it a LOT more cool than I have been doing (she's so attractive that I've been literally jumping around in my seat - I sit in front of her, so unfortunately I cannot look at her without turning around, which I must stop doing) and be careful not to enter the just-friends zone. Actually I've probably already very much done that, but I can still undo it, just by paying her less attention, being myself and treating her like I treat anyone else in the office. When I realize someone's "hot" and I want to make sexy-time with them, as Borat says, then I lose my cool and start acting very jumpy and desperate, making the girl change her mind about me even if she initially found me interesting and with potential. It's cool though. This week I go to Las Vegas, and should really start worrying about sales again, as my numbers (while still excellent) have not grown in a long time.

That's it for now, not a very interesting post. Still I wanted to let my gentle readership of one know that I'm cool, I was just angsty last time. Borat was incredible by the way, possibly the funniest movie I've ever seen. My British friend at work that's found a different job, we were going to take him out on Friday night for some going away drinks and instead I got Borat tickets (his real going away do is next Thu when I am in Vegas) and he took it really badly. So much so that we're not even really friends anymore - I thought he completely over reacted and had a pathetic reaction, and he thought that I only ever think about myself. Oh well, nevermind, he's a very negative person in general, and I was ready to cut him loose anyway. But yeah, Borat, instant classic. I might take my parents to it tomorrow night if my mom's back feels better, she's pulled it or something.
