It’s the Hunter-(Smith97ingsgerrr...) Wedding Celebration!

So my small group asked me the other day how much longer I had to go in this Lent 3Q adventure. In all honesty, I haven’t looked because I’m not quite ready to be done. I might drag it out a little. I’m really getting into this flirting thing. For instance, I flirted my fanny off at work on Friday. I even went for the “sultry” voice (which in my case ended up being more like a sorta whisper but hey, I’ll take it).

As I type this blog entry I am switching back and forth between my blog and gmail so I can chat with my friend KK. She is great…one of my favorites (and should probably hire me for dating advice…ice cream and French kisses all the way KK!)...but she managed to remind/inspire me to throw out my new idea.

I’ve been thinking that while I may not be officially done with my daily flirts, I should maybe close out the 3Q with a bang (and maybe a fizzle too). To do so I’ve got a couple ideas. One, start the diet I’ve been meaning to start to lose 10…make that 20 lbs (I’m publicly admitting to this in hopes of motivation). T’s wedding is just around the corner and none of the bridesmaids are pregnant (unfortunate). I’ve also committed to my small group to try and get my classes on 2 or 3 nights so I can try online dating. I think that will be a frightening comedy of errors and awkward moments. You can read my previous online dating experiences in earlier blog entries. However, I digress.

My idea to close out 3Q is…..drum roll please….. to have a bachelorette party…FOR MYSELF! What better way to get my flirt on than if everyone thinks I’m getting married?!?! Maybe rent a party bus and wear only animal print? Free drinks and kisses from random guys!?!?! Dance my pants off at Funky Town? Penis jello shots? Seriously, if that isn’t a bang (and high probability of a fizzle) then I don’t know what is. The best news? You are all invited! I think it’s perhaps the most ingenious idea I have had in awhile. I need to work out logistics and cover story (feel free to submit ideas). It may have to wait a bit but I think it has merit. I’m not sure there is any more “holy” way to end Lent 3Q than in animal print, on a party bus to Funky Town with free drinks and random “last kisses” from a slew (a heap, a peck) of men with all my best girls.

That being said, I should go. One test down two more to go. Yay being an adult student….it is every bit as awful as you may think.
