Keep Away From the Flames and Go Save a Horse

So I ended it with the "someone" I was dating. He is a great person and everything was pretty much perfect, but the problem I have is that he absolutely will NOT say anything to people who are taking advantage of him and treating him like shit. I'm just not ready to deal with that again. I am not a person who puts up with that kind of garbage. Like most of you already know I don't hold a lot back when it comes to what I'm thinking. If you are not being nice to me or I don't like you then, by God, you WILL know. I am not afraid to give somebody a good What For. Don't sit there and plead to me for ten minutes that you will work on it and try to get better at standing up for yourself, in order for me to not end the relationship, then in the next breath say "That's just how I am, there's nothing I can do about it". Seriously, I swear to Christ that's what he said. If that's the case (...Nothing I can do about it...) then don't fucking tell me that you will work on it. And by all means don't get all ass chapped and call me a Cunt Face (in secret passive aggressive code) with your buddy because I STAND UP FOR WHAT I DO AND DO NOT WANT. That's okay, though. I understand that you have to project your anger at yourself on to me so that you can cope. The bottom line is that I'm still not going to put up with the behavior. I don't feel bad for ending the relationship. It's one of the perks of being an asshole. I am okay with this. I am the first to admit that I am one. Get over it.

Enough about that bullshit.

In the mean time work is still super. Both of my knees are solid bruises, a few of which have started to fade. I will get pictures on here as soon as I figure out how (anyone can feel free to email me and let me know the secret to that trick). I have started hanging out with coworkers on a consistent basis and I love it. I work with some pretty fucking fantastic people! Also, on this same note, I wish that the folks of the male gender that work at the facility were not so goddamn attractive. I hate having crushes on people at work. I hate having crushes on people who I know are not what I am ultimately looking for, or need for that matter. Oh well. I'm sure it won't be long until the it subsides.

I was talking with my coworker friends last night about why is it that I always am attracted to he who is not The One. I don't know where else to meet the aesthetically pleasing male type, though. Work boys are off limits because dating coworkers is never a good idea. I don't like dating friends of friends because then if it goes sour it turns real awkward around the mutual friend. Maybe I just need to hold out for Ryan Reynolds or Tom Brady, or a good old fashioned, nicely toned, Cowboy.

Until then, remember: Don't let the spark ignite, but if it does, don't play with the fire because you'll be too burnt to hit on the hot Firemen coming to put out the flames.
