Blogger Happy Hour

After last week's lovely outing with Elle, Snob, and Polly/Kristin, we have decided to organize a proper blogger gathering. We're going to be meeting on Thursday, March 23rd. If you'd like to come, send me an email (cocksanddolls at yahoo) and I'll add you to the evite. It should be fun, if only for the overlapping blog posts that will follow (like Roshomon, but with less crime and more booze-- hey, maybe that could be our catch phrase).

I'm currently home sick and feeling like hell, but I promise I'll write a proper post soon, which will include details of the Lock & Key party on Friday as well as how I seem to be sabotaging things with TV Tyler (or am I?). In the meantime, I'm going to try to eat my first proper meal in nearly 24 hours and watch the rest of Roger Dodger (Campbell Scott as a PUA-gone-horribly-wrong, rar).

These multiple entries are confusing enough as it is!

Happy 'blog-buddy meeting!

I saw that movie. That guy didn't strike me as a PUA. More an AFC bullshitting to his nephew about getting laid every night.

1) He got too hung up on company ink. Find fresh women everywhere.

2) He was a fairly attractive guy. If he were a PUA, why would he have resort to hookers? PAY FOR SEX? Please...

3) Moving in on only the drunkest women to take advantage of them. That strikes me as a desperation AFC move.

PUAs aren't that desperate. And don't have to "sneak a peak" at every little bit of cleavage or whatever. AFCs who aren't getting laid do that.

Coatman,
I actually get a kick out of reading Polly's posts after we go out together, to see how her night varied from mine (because, even if we were at the same place at the same time, our stories often wildly vary).

Rubik,
Actually, I saw this guy as a PUA who gave up on charming women and was so jaded, that he went the extreme other way in pissing them off. I think the way his character is structured, you're supposed to believe that he could get just about any woman he wants, he's just too disillusioned/hardened.

Larissa,
Thank you! I think we're going to get a pretty decent turnout! I still can't believe how many people I have met and will meet through this blog...

man, part of me would love to attend your meeting, but the other part of me would hate to completely give up my "anonymity!"

hey, and i'm sick too...what's up with this bug that's going around?

Kiggle,
A very thoughtful comment there. I see what you're saying, but I don't want to abandon the blog and I think I can strike a balance between my life and my cyber-life. I don't blog about every single thing that happens to me. As for the relationship thing, it takes two to tango. None of the guys I've dated lately have made boyfriend noises, which is why I continue to meet new ones. But yeah, I'm going to take things slow going forward.

Pookalu,
I'm going to suggest name tags with our blogger names, so that we can maintain some anonymity if we want it. Up to you...

Looking forward to meeting all of you at the blogger happy hour on Thursday. I keep worrying that, since a bunch of you already hang out, that I'll wander into the bar, not know a soul, get too shy and end up leaving. Promise if you see a lost and slightly stunning woman going up to total strangers thinking they're you guys, that you'll jump in and save me from my embarassing self, ok?

Betty, don't worry about it! Just look for people wearing name tags-- yes, I am going to kindly insist on name tags, so that we can all spot each other, though everyone will have the option of going by their blog name. It's going to be fun and I'm sure after a drink or six your shyness will dissipate.
