She could be really busy.
I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

It was so funny, it had been so long since I had a conversation with anyone besides my parents that I feel my skills were lacking, but it was all good.
Not lacking at all. I was so damned tired, I was worried that I wasn't good company :) I came home, watched Body of Proof ('cause I was too tired to really pay attention to Justified) and crashed like a ton of bricks.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Or she could have been stressing about what to text back.

Argh. I hate dating and trying to parse shit. I mean, I can assume, but then I hope I'm wrong, and that voice tends to win out because what if?? (which is to say I texted my date from Saturday on Monday and she just texted me back early this morning. Seems unlikely that means "I'm totally wanting another date!" but what if?? Sigh)
meara, was this the woman that had a lot of drama in her life right now? Not texting you back immediately might not mean anything at all.

Yeah, didn't she have kids with her previous partner? That takes up a lot of brainspace during a breakup.

Yes....and she did take a couple days to answer my emails before we met, but.... (I texted her Monday and said "Thanks for the good time Saturday--hope your Sunday wasn't too work-filled!" and she replied today "Hi there- I did work too much Sunday but that's how it goes. Hope your last week is going well!"...I'm not sure if I should text back)

Thrive to spite them
I think that's an opening to text her back.
So I've been kinda semi paralyzed with being overwhelmed at the stupid job hunt. And I didn't look for a job, no I looked, but I didn't really apply for any jobs for several months. I realized I can't keep doing this, but I just look at the job listings and think "no one wants me".
I called Spherion and even though they are currently running ads about needing office admin help they said they have no jobs available. Which my mind interprets as "we think you are a horrible worker, the last assignments you had they said bad things about you, and now we don't want you to work with us, but we aren't going to say that."
I'm trying to tell myself that's irrational and probably not what they are thinking.
I did actually send out a resume and cover letter for a job I saw on craigslist.
