Belly Buttons

I don't really have a grande update for you (I do have a hysertical story below though, unrelated to dating). I've actually taken the last week and half or so 'off' from dating so to speak. I did have drinks with Boston Boy last Wednesday (before he left town for Thanksgiving). It was average. I was having an incredibly stressful week so I know I wasn't myself. But like it said, it was alright. I'm starting to not like him as much as I thought I did. We'll see if anything transpires on that front. I haven't completely closed the door but red flags are flying up faster than they should. I did (like 2 minutes) ago agree to meet a guy for drinks this weekend. I know...I know. I've been breaking the weekend rule a lot lately. But this guy is a morning news anchor and gets up a 3am during the week...which also means he goes to bed at 8pm. He seems interesting. I was happy yesterday when I finally got his last name, figured out which station he works for (it's not in Kansas City but close enough he can commute), and proceded to cyber-stalk him on you-tube. He's cute. But really...anyone doing the morning news comes off a cheesy. We'll see what he's like in person (provided he doesn't flake like every other guy I seem to attract).

I will tell you probably the funniest thing that has come out of l's mouth to date...this happened about 2 weeks ago. I took her on a quick shopping trip to Kohls. I was in the 'lingerie' section. She was secured in the seat on the front of the cart. I was in the rear of the cart. I turn to look at her and see she has pulled the most obnoxious, red, lacy bra off the rack and is examining it. The following conversation ensues...

ME: L, put that back. This is not your department and you can't touch things.
L (in a very serious, matter-of-fact voice): Yes Mommy. I know this is not my department. This (holding up the said bra) is NOT my size. My belly buttons are NOT this big (pointing to the bra cups).

Belly buttons? Really? Where in the hell did she come up with that?!? I, along with 2 other women in ear shot, fought back tears from laughing so hard. The stuff she comes up with never ceases to amaze (and humor) me.
