And the flood gates open!!! Swoosh!

...and by that I mean men! haha! But before that fun stuff let me get to some boring exercise stuff. haha!

I got the gazelle edge all put together tonight and did 30 mins on it! I feel more soreness in my legs right now than I do after running. So tomorrow I might be super sore. But it's cool the book has  8 diff poses to do on it and I tried them all out. It's neat. I'll have to take a pic of me on it later just for fun! Buuuuuut, it was not so EASY to fold up and put away. They lied. Too tall to fold up and stand up in a closet so I had to chest press it and carry it out to the garage, haha! So at least you get an upper body workout carrying the damn thing around! I haven't ran since Sun which makes me feel like a total loser but I've been getting in OT at work, so I guess it's sort of a decent trade off. Trade one thing that is good for me for another thing that is good for me.

Speaking of work, that's where the guy  news comes into play. (I do not meet guys OUT, b/c I do not go OUt, unfortunatley). Soooo, there's this guy...at work! Yay! a guy!!! His name is Nick. He's 30 and cute, but not super hot or anything. haha! He started recently and I trained the class he was in. He has a degree in Engineering but couldn't find work here, he just moved here recently from up north. We were friendly and chatty in training b/c he's a libra and I get along w/ them really well. So then after training I didn't talk to him for awhile, didn't see him around. Well on his bday in OCt he asked me to make him "better than sex" cake that I had told him about, so I did. We started talking again, started emailing every so often casually. Then last wk we were emailing and flirting heavily, on email AND in person. He made me blush a few times!

Then I colored my hair dark brown over the weekend. I go in monday am and he emails me and says:
"did u do something diff w/ your hair?"
i said "I colored it, it's just brown." (plus I wore my bangs down for the first time in probably 2 wks, I'm lame.)
then he says "it looks sexy! i like it! the bangs looks good too, but they're not new right?"

It felt sooooooooooooo awesome to get a compliment like that from a dude! It's been so long since a man acknowledged me for anything other than a good friend. We started flirting more in email and by today, it's heavy.  He works late and I get off mid-afternoon but I've stayed late all this wk and it was a bonus to hang out and chat w/ him. Yesterday I asked him what time he got off.

he said "why? you want to hang out after?"
i said "no. just wondering." haha!

But I was really surprised he offered, kinda offerred. Then today we were flirting and he knows my sis is in town (little 18 yr old sis Whitney and her girlfriend Lindsey, down from Colorado).
so he says "when you take your sis out you should tell me where you're going and i'll meet up with you. if that's ok with you?"
so I say "maybe." (i'm trying sooo hard to play hard to get.)

all this work stuff is fine but the second I see him outside of work, things will change b/c it's just different. If you want to lung at their face and stick your tongue down his throat, the opportunity is there like it isn't at work. haha! when he told me how old he was today he said:
"old enough to handle your fine ass." bahahahahahaha!
i just said "alrighty then."

he's very dirty! and a major flirt. but when he gets into the dirty stuff at work I put a stop to it pretty quick b/c I don't want him to think I'm fine w/ that all the time and fine w/ it from a dude I'm not even dating. a guy friend is diff, I'm dirty w/ all my guys friends just b/c it's funny. but w/ a possible hottie, there's a limit. my motto, make 'em think "a lady on the street, but a freak in the sheets" and they don't know the freak part until they've been there, I don't advertise that. I don't want someone to want me just to sleep w/ me. I'd rather feel confident they like me for me. He's super fun to talk to, really open, hilarious, very smart,  he's traveled the world (turn on for me b/c i want to go with), religious (though it might not seem like it) and a few other good things I can't think of right now. tonight i have his ipod b/c mine died an hr into work and he offered for me to use his all day so I could "see his style of music and get to know him better", haha! so when i was leaving tonight he said:
"go ahead and keep it tonight."
i said "why?"
he said "it's fine. just take it, as long as you bring it back tomorrow."

i don't normally listen to mine in the car but I took it anyway. Don't really know why.

We'll see if he meets me out this wk or maybe even asks me out. You never know. I don't even know what to think about it, but I would go. I love hanging out with him, which is a major plus! Better get back on the birth control, I guess.



Ohhhh, and I scheduled my "body lift body wrap" for tomorrow at 10am. I'm going into work early so I can just leave for an hr and a half to do it, then return to work. I'm super super duper excited! Cost a pretty pennny so I won't buy #2 until I see how #1 goes. Says it gaurantees you'll lose 6-30 inches the first time, let's hope I'm on that "big inches lost" side! I'll do my own measurements and pics in the morning before work so it's more authentic! I hope it works!

xoxo,
Liz

p.s. the whole "flood gates" part of the subject was b/c he's not the only  man flirting w/ me at work. There are probably 5 who have laid it on recently. And I surprising am not pissed at them for not noticing me before, I just love the attention. The compliments and glances in the hall make me feel sexy! Oh and I had asked Nick why himself and "unavailable men" liked me and he said "you're beautiful and you are so confident when you talk. confidence is sexy. I think men can't help but like you, available or not."

oh and prince charming, still layin on the charm. I emailed him tue and said
"you really gotta cut out all the flirting b/c you could be giving people the wrong impression. people who dont know you're engaged."
and he said "what? who? me flirt? was i talking to someone? what are you talking about?"
so i said "you flirt w/ anyone or anything that walks by your desk. including men, you're walking a real fine line there with the men." haha!

and he busted out laughing. so for the rest of that day anytime he was talking to ANYBODY and i looked at him, he'd say "we're just talking over here. this is just talking." haha! so then today he was talking to a chick pharmacist and said the same thing (she knows my humor b/c she sits by me, she knows i'm joking)

he says "we're just talking. just talking over here."
and i said "yeah right, you  know you wanted to throw her down on the desk."

and he died laughing again. his chuckle laugh when he's caught off gaurd is hilarious, enough to make me laugh AT him. haha! oh boys! oh and since he wants to tease ME about ME thinking he's a flirt he said:

"i think i'm going to take a 2-3 yr sebatacle (however u spell it) and spend some quality time w/ myself. nobody can come. just me all alone, relaxing.......except you liz, you can come. and bring a bottle of wine!" haha!then today he walks by my desk and says:

 "lookin' beautiful girl, wanna come over later?" but i'm pretty sure he's completely joking. at least i hope so b/c i don't take it serious w/ him anymore.

p.s.s. Nick and I have shard 373 emails between the two of us in the last 2 days! Isn't that insane!!!
