Ohhhh, I get it! They're here to meet women!


PDF left for New Zealand yesterday to see his boyfriend (who is working on a movie there), and he'll be gone for ten days. At first I was a little worried that I would be bored without my gay slave driver to order me around, but then I remembered that I have lots of stuff to do! I have to find my next job, I have to clean my apartment, I have to do laundry, and I have to go speed dating tonight.

Yes, I tried to slip that last one in there unnoticed...I'll provide a full report on my speed dating experience after it's all over. It will be way more interesting to write about it when I actually have something to tell. I'm approaching the experience with plenty of irony, so I can't wait to write it up!

I started my assignment at the women's health advocacy group on Monday. In an unexpected turn of events, it is a repository for cute straight men! Weird, huh? And bonus, they all support women's health issues and reproductive rights! I got flirted with yesterday, and I was a little rattled... After spending five years nailed to a mediocre relationship I'd quite forgotten how to flirt, so I got nervous and started talking too much. Other than adorable fellas, the job is pretty much your standard, run-of-the-mill admin position, and of course, well below my skill level. Hopefully this will motivate me to search high and low for a production gig.
