Sam called me last night.. he wanted to see me. I turned him down.

Here’s the thing, we really clicked but I’m kinda worried this is a very spur of the moment thing for him. In other words, one of these really good flings that are just great at the start and then die down really fast. He is def not taking things slow at all and it worries me.  He either a) really likes me and just dropped all the rules and the game or b) is in the habit of getting what he wants when he wants it. The kinda guy that wants to get everything out of a girl really fast so he can quickly decide if he likes her or not. Impatience- not  a virtue.

He wasn’t  very subtle about his disappointment. Almost sad. Oh well, this is the only way to go.  I fought the urge to see him but it’ll pay of later.  I also don’t wanna be sending mixed messages. I know guys in Lebanon have had enough of that. Bisoux

So, yes, I didn’t blog on Sunday, do you blame me?…  I was running around Gemayzeh like a headless chicken on Saturday. Of course I didn’t forget about my own valentine. I’ve been going to this one bar for awhile and there’s this super- cute guy who works there ( Let’s call him Sam for now … always behind the bar, always serving the pretty girls. We’ve only made small talk because, well, I’d get all shy around him. Me. Shy? Weird, I know!  After Daraj il Fan, I  stopped by there with a FUSHIA rose in my hand, walked right up to him and gave it to him. He kissed my hand (shucks) and insisted I stay for some drinks.

So for the rest of the night, he was socializing with the entire place but gave me special attention, like I was his girl or something. After two drinks I had to meet up with some friends. I asked him when his shift was over and he cracked up.  ” I own this bar hun, I can leave whenever I want.”

He  bar hopped with me till the early hours of the morning. I knew I had to see him again and I did. He called me yesterday… so soon, I know! I shouldn’t have agreed to go out with him with such short notice (too available)  but I couldn’t help it!! So we went to  Crepeaway last night, he wanted something nicer, I insisted on a burger! We really clicked.  He thought it was so cute that I liked to picture my food. If only he knew… Bisoux

Ok, first time I try these, taquitos or something.. tortilla bread with cajun chicken. so good

Spielburger... a classic

I’m noticing a general increase in mamma’s boys in Lebanon. Yes, I know times have changed, and it’s more expensive for them to move out these days (even at 30!), but this is not the real issue at hand.

It’s that men turn into little boys around their mommas. The constant reporting they have to do.  Just tell your mom you’re out with a friend. Don’t get all nervous.  And fine, I get that Momma makes the best Kibbeh but it doesn’t mean she has to pack it for you in Tupperware to take to work. And what does he mean he’s having dinner with his mom before WE go out for DINNER? Tell her you have a date for god’s sake!! When they get sick, they won’t  even let you visit him. “It’s contagious.” Oh and no girl is ever good enough for his momma, and no girl will ever treat him like his momma. Wipe your own **** . The worst is mom’s trying to convince their 30 year olds that they’re too young to get serious, because they want them all to their own. Blech!! Do you honestly need your mom to buy you clothes; it’s not cool having the same sweater as your dad.  Cut the umbilical cord today!! Bisoux

What a weekend!!! Thanks for all the lovely people that showed up and most of all thanks for the ladies that accepted our flowers and joined my movement, physically or through  following this blog! Did you ladies get the bouquet you wanted or the date you had  hoped for? If so , I would love to feature you on my blog. My girls were on Mtv last night, talking about everything that’s been going on for the past two months. It’s all been so surreal. We caused a lot of commotion on sat night, I’ll be posting the pics throughout the day. Bisoux

A James Bond and a Dry Martini, the perfect start to a perfect night

Drinks + Flowers. My favorite

More flowers at Alcazar

yes, it was one of those nights... pure regret in the morning

I found them!!! Remember the Mcdonald's fried camembert cheese I dicovered around Christmas Time!! It's still there!!

Like they weren't fattening enough I had to dip them in some Big Mac sauce. I'm ashamed of myself
