So my super genius plan to get myself a date for the 4th was a big FAIL!

After a flood of emails from scary dudes I managed to get it down to 3 dudes who may or may not be weird/creepy (BTW, I also moved my ad from M4W to the strictly platonic area).  I picked the guy that seemed most like my posse and arranged to meet up in Mexico before biking down to the show.

Now here is where it gets interesting. 1) The chosen one broken his phone and the only way to reach him was via email.  2) He had a ticket so I gave mine to a friend. 3)  The day of  (30 minutes before I was supposed to meet him) the concert I received the following email:

hey — change of plans..

i biked way too hard today.. started at 11am, just ended. i’m crazy
sunburned and i need a nap before the show bigtime. massive amounts
of pain. maybe i’ll catch you and the posse at the show?

The only reason I opened my email was to prove a point. This was not a date.  This was strictly platonic.  This is where I got to give 10hdg and the Jew a big “I told you so!”   I declared that we would never hear from this guy again.  He has no phone.  There was a slim chance that he would have borrowed someone’s phone at the show to try and track me down but that was highly unlikely.

Did I hear from him again?  Nope, and now that the waiting period is over I can post this on the internet.

Now that the date failure story is out of the way, here is the recap of my 4th of July (day 2 of my 4 day weekend).

• Sleeping in
• Helping a friend with her book
• Picking up booze at Spec’s
• Driving to Mexico to hang out with my peeps
• Drinking/grilling
• Date FAIL!
• Shot of Whiskey (good bye Jameson)
• Walking downtown (too drunk for biking)
• Meeting up with friend to give her the extra ticket
• Catching the end of the Octopus Project’s set
• Enjoying beer in exchange for ticket (Lonestar!)
• Explosions in the Sky
• 10hdg confronts sorority bitches
• Show is over
• M and I request a MOUNTAIN of fries (with cheese) at Jackalope.
• Three drunkemons stumble back to Mexico

The quest for a man that gets along with my current set of friends is rather frustrating.  I swear between what I am looking for and what would be compatible with the rest of the personalities in my life, I am looking for a unicorn.
