Don't you love it when you have two big papers due the next day, and you put off doing them for like a week, and you even put off starting them until like 3:00 because you're too busy watching Garden State, and then you spend like 2 hours whittling your overflowing feedreader down to managable proportions, and then you finally write the first paper in record time because you don't have time to waste (plus it's on a fairly easy topic like the mistreatment of Jews in non-Spanish medieval Europe), and then you pull out the description for the second paper, and you notice it says it's not due until Wednesday? Of course you do. And then you call up your boytoy to come over and watch Dodgeball or something. And then you blog about it while waiting for him.

Speaking of The Boy, per request, a brief description: dental student, practicing Jew, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, has already bought me flowers, drives a Chevy (approved by GM dads the world over, like, say, mine), knows who Dale Earnhardt was, Yankees fan (everyone has their flaws), taller than me, muscular build, no kids, no ex-wives, no current wives, no psychotic ex-girlfriends leaving nasty messages on my voicemail (yes, I've had that before--more than once), doesn't mind slightly psychotic current girlfriends, and he likes (or tolerates) going to museums.
You'll have to let me know if you approve.

Posted by: Rev. Mike at November 27, 2005 09:08 PMOne question...Is he a long hair?

Posted by: shank at November 28, 2005 10:17 AMi can't believe you're not really retarded!! are you sure you're not really retarded?? (Frank and i quote that and giggle all the time. we might buy the DVD just for that scene, because other than that it's kinda slow.)
about the Boytoy. sounds great. (except i saw the word liberal in there somewhere.) ;-D

Posted by: sarahk at November 28, 2005 10:17 AMReally going to live up to the old Shiksa thing huh? Just as an FYI the religion can be a BIG thing to overcome with some families.
Posted by: Pete at November 28, 2005 11:30 AMPete--thanks for that groundbreaking commentary. I believe we already discussed my thoughts on that about 2 years ago.
SarahK--Not Jewish. And *I'm* a liberal.
Shank--unless you're making a better offer, shut it.
Sgt--definitely not a longhair.
Rev--thanks!

Posted by: Keith at November 28, 2005 02:24 PMWhat sort of museums?

Practicing? Just how old is this guy? I'd think he'd have gotten the hang of it by the time he got to college.
Posted by: Jim at November 30, 2005 08:51 AMHow's his finacial situation? Does he have debt other than school loans? Does he habitually spend more than he earns, or vice versa?
Fiscal responsibility is a long-term issue, but it's something to think about.
