I just got back from Nick's and I'm drunk. I want to write this unedited and on the spur of the moment.
I'm talking to this attractive college student at the bar. Getting Indications of Interest. And thinking: shit. This could be another Mar situation.
The truth is, I really haven't met any chick in her 20s that I want to date. I don't want to have to deal with the bullshit insecurity of 20-something-girls. No offense to my 20-something readers. You're all great. All four of you.
But, I'm a guy at 39.
I had a good conversation with her, and I punted. I asked for a check.
Marla is cool. This girl I'm talking to is nice, but Marla is more......worldly. This girl is a college student, possibly here on a fake ID, looking for a job as a kitchen worker. And, just moved to Chicago. Nice, friendly but not someone good for my piece of mind.
Marla is waaaaay cooler.
I have had a few shots and this may not be coherent but I hope the meaning is clear.....
I'll write a coherent post when I'm sober. But, alcohol does make the truth come out...

It's simply logical.
In the same way, I can enjoy having a 39 years old friend, but not a 39 years old boyfriend.
Then again, how come that at 25 I've been working in finance for 4 years and I have a degree? Daan mother, you shouldn't have sent me to school when I was not even 5 years old!
Make it 5, you've got another one in her twenties that likes to pop by.
Make it 6 :-) I have been reading for a while but just never commented. Although, I am 28, so I guess I am considered in my late 20s now :-)
It's nice to see Marla getting some props from you! It is great that your friends like her, but since you are the one who is dating her...
You dumbass, don’t you know that I live vicariously through you? I want to read stories about how you gamed some hot young college student. Between the two of us I’m the one who is supposed to have the conscience.
But... Marla is pretty damn cool.
LLKULL3: The conscience? Ha! Don't make me fucking laugh!
Between the two of us, I'm just the one who has more game.
Anonymous and Amy: Thank you! Feel free to comment---good, bad or otherwise! Always a pleasure to hear from my readers!
ddgirl: Don't feel bad. I've been working in finance and I don't have a degree.
Hadley: Yeah. In the end, it's all my call. I'll do a blog sometime on friends' perceptions of significant other.
i was going to ask you if you were going to do a blog like that :).
it's something everyone deals with, i'd be curious to hear your take on it..
p.s. even your drunken blogs are interesting to read. hope your still doing that novel you mentioned awhile ago :)
