Here is what went right on the Style mission last night. IMHO.

1) We took a few minutes to connect in person before we went in.
2) I was feeling a little sick and a little weak and so my resistance was lower than usual.
3) He wore some of his colors that I associate with him and as soon as I saw them in my peripheral vision I felt comforted.
4) I had given a couple of close friends the heads up about the adventure, knew they were rooting for us, and I could also call them afterwards and cry if I needed to. (Which I didn’t at all, but still nice just in case!)
5) I surrendered to him as driver and me as passenger.
6) I read this passage in a book the day before and realized what I had been doing with him, and that I was 100% prepared to quit doing that.

“There’s a danger with challenges. Some of us might get so used to needing something to push up against and an occasion to rise to that we begin creating drama-addict challenges, the kind that sabotage our relationships, work, and lives.” (Melody Beattie, 52 Weeks of Conscious Contact)
7) I wanted to jump him the whole time. Turn-on can be a fabulous painkiller!
8) I realized just over the weekend that Hi-5 reminds me of my very first crush, Han Solo. Once I got in touch with that, many things fell into place inside of me. As I was searching for some visual evidence for you, I happened upon this fabulous video. Han’s head will appear in the sky for a moment, but you should also watch the whole thing because it is genius.

9) I heard back from the professional style consultant after we talked for a while and he sent me his basic proposal. $ 2 , 0 0 0    After that sticker shock, girlfriend was just glad someone was willing to take her on the ride and not charge that much!!
10) He held my clothes. The ones I wanted to try on. The ones I had decided on. My backpack when I was in the fitting room. How tender and considerate is that?! Awww.
11) The look in his eyes when I walked out in the pink shirt and gray skirt. Yeh.
12)  He hugged me extra long when we said hello. I love that.

Okay, there’s more good but duty calls.
To celebrate a very fun night, I’m going to boldly post a photograph of me in some of the goods. Enjoy!


And, thanks, honeyo. : )

What can I say, I’m on a roll with animals and love.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXo3NFqkaRM

If anyone knows anything about the Noe Valley Merchants’ Association, hit me up. I’d like to get to know my ‘hood and share my professional goodness with them.

I’m experimenting with a new answer to ‘what do you do?’. Still a work in progress, but you heard it here first.

“I help spiritually-motivated people get more clean in some area of their lives. I blend the personal with the practical, and people often feel relief, pride, satisfaction, and joy as a result of our work together.”

Apart from that, can I just say that I feel honored that someone found my humble blog by searching for “tennis player porn”. Cheerio!

Hi!
Hello to my new Japanese friend following me on Twitter! That is auspicious, indeed!

HAPPY 40TH ANNIVERSARY today to my Mom and Dad! Since nobody posted yet their Disco Disco Zohan video, it’s not too late. : )

<<EDITOR’S REVISION: It’s their 41st anniversary. Oops, wrong year. I talked to them and all is well.>>

Updates on my getting Bethitized. (Yeh, I would pay me for this.)

Tennis journey – asked my roommates if they have a racket I can borrow. MM, can I get you to defect a little from Ultimate and play tennis with me since we are in the same ‘hood now?

Style journey – I’m actually starting to notice how people are dressed and having fun with it. Also read Style article in Wall Street Journal yesterday. Hi-5 and FriendWife, desert camo is IN! I can dress like an army girl and be up to date!! Oh, and I’m wearing a dress and a belt today. Woooooh! Girly!

Hiking this Saturday – I emailed a former roommate who is a barefoot hiker to get good places to go. Iheartbarefoothiking.

Sales and persuasion – Had a major breakthrough with getting something comp’ed for a client today. Shook like a leaf and it was totally worth it.

I have a new office meeting idea for financial counseling clients.

I’m unofficially adopting a 9 year old girl as one of her loving guardians. (She doesn’t know it. I’ll just do it.)

Moved from Step 10 to 11 in OA, which is awesome. Step 11 is studying prayer and meditation. Sweet! This is like the dessert step for me.

It really can be the thinnest line between depression and activation sometimes.

Now, here’s a fun game. I don’t get to write to you again until I’ve finished a Top Secret project. Shhhhh! And wish me well.

You, my friends, are the dessert of my daily life.
