What is proper etiquette if a meeting where your attendance is required gets scheduled on a day you took off but forgot to mark as such on your calendar?
First workout at the gym was Tuesday. I work with a trainer, he had me do "back and accessories" which meant barbell rows, then some row machine, then some other sort of row with a cable which was suppose to hit my deltoids, then lat pull downs, then pull ups and some curls to end. 3 sets of 10 for each exercise, I think 15 for the curls. I'll have to start paying attention to what the names are and the weight I'm doing, I think the most I did with the barbell row was 95. Most of the later exercises I had trouble hitting the last few reps - got spent really quickly. Today my back is feeling it all over though, which I take is a good thing; but, the inside of my elbows is also really feeling it like near the joint or maybe the ligament. I also can't extend fully, so not sure if that is a good or bad thing.
Have some date nights coming up, but I also go cancelled on Monday night like an hour before. This would have been a second date and was probably going to be a sleepover since she lives an hour away and we were planning on drinking in. This is not wifey material, we are pretty clear we are just looking for some fun with each other. Anyway, the purported reason for canceling was she had no gas to drive here.
I was talking to my friend, he said I should have gone and picked her up. That didn't seem reasonable to me - little too desperate or something. Since I don't have much to say tonight I'm gonna put some convo down below for entertainment and to see what independent thoughts people have and may share. The only background you need is to know we had one double-date, she made it clear she was DTF, we planned a 2nd date but she cancelled on me, then after some back and forth we hadn't talked in about 10 days and I was the last to message her something but never got a response. Following all that, I hit her up one night which is where it starts below. I'm redacting location info.

Sorry dude, sometimes it just doesn't work. I had one like that a few months back. Our first date was awesome and we just spent four hours on a restaurant patio talking. Some back and forth, and then....nothing. Sounds like something *did* come up, which can't be avoided in life, and *then* she lost interest/changed her mind. Just keep fishing.
ReplyDeleteYour first few posts were good, but it seems like lately your blog has become more of a personal blog rather than actuarial. Understandably though, since you probably wouldn't want your coworkers to see it. Any other updates? Passed MFE?
ReplyDeleteDitto. Came to read about an actuarial protégé but instead found a teeny bop highschool drama.
ReplyDeleteHope it all works out for the best. :) stay Strong
