No celebrity sightings (but one seriously disturbed ex-something)!

Date #2 was head-to-head to me while crossing over the line that had built up near the back of Liquid. Luckily for me, I didn’t notice him until my friend did the “OMG!-did-you-see-who-was-just-in-front-of-you?” trick. Sadly, no David Dellucci (I just KNOW it’s coming). I immediately and immature-ly slid in between friends to guard myself from the “First Meeting Since I...

Best birthday in history of Mel Extravaganz-i!

Quick birthday thanks: …to Paulius at the Velvet Tango Room who is the ultimate in party hosts! …to family that rocked my world with fantastic birthday gifts (and one broken potted plant)! …to my new savior in life, the salesperson at Charlotte Russe when all hope was lost I wouldn’t find that perfect birthday outfit! (Seriously, 4 hours at Great Northern Mall with no inspiration...

The weather indoors is…

Well. This is different: I met Jason Nicholas last night!! (Happy Birthday to ME). I casually mentioned to my dad while watching the weather last weekend in my best Wayne’s World imitation: Oh yes, I will meet him. I truly didn’t have a plan or honest inclination that this meeting would ever happen. Then, there he was, being introduced to me at Ultra Lounge by one of my close friends. She,...

And for my last trick…

Holy crap, I forgot how much fun Monday nights were downtown! Continuing on the celebration to the end of anxiety-ridden finals, first did the ubiquitous happy hour at The Fairmount in Cleveland Heights (it’s just randomly too close to my office). Essential “changing of locations,” continued “some beers” at the Map Room on West 9th. Not wanting to complete a work-night of...

NEW bar, NEW men!

I found a new bar that houses about an 80% ratio of men — which is a fine, fine day for a single gal like myself: West Park Station in West Park at Kamm’s Corner (couldn’t find a web link). Friday night there was a band, and within 30 seconds of placing my drink on the table, there was a hand pulling me to the dance floor by an unidentified stranger. Afterward, I took part in “Free...

The response…

And seeing as how “Date #2″ apparently reads my page, my response before I even had a chance (via myspace): ummm…not too shabby for a stupid Polac who shaves before he has a date???? at least i am not a dumb dago Add a couple reasons why I don’t want to date him. Intolerance is first on my checklist… among others. AND PEOPLE WONDER WHY I’M STILL SINGLE! I just...

Last day of classes!

FINALLY! All I have left is finals. I am completely spent. These class presentations take everything out of me. And finals… holy crap, way to pile it on at the last second! Little recaps from days where I have had my nose to the books… Date #2 happened last week… I reserved a table at local hidden gem, Stino’s in Rocky River, for dessert (three different kinds) and wine. And since...
