Single Parents

Have you ever dated a guy or girl with a kid?

Southie has a 2 year-old. I think his son is great, but kids seem to hamper situations.

I like to go out... a lot. Southie is able to make it out quite a bit but once in a while he can't because of his son.

Don't get me wrong. I think it's great because it means Southie is a wonderful father, but I never imagined dating situations to be like this.

Kind of like I'm second.

I like Southie a lot, but I am not accustomed to second place.

Whirlwind Update

So sorry to have kept you all out of the loop. It's been a crazy month on the wards with long hours and patients who just aren't leaving the hospital.

And on top of that I've been dating like crazy and going nuts about football season, and overall just not getting to the computer.

So my date with the German Daddy was less than stellar. He knew more about food and wine than me and told me about all these great places he'd take me. Of course I made the mistake of sleeping with him that night and haven't heard from him since.

But I did meet Southie. I call him that because he has a straight-up Boston accent like no other. He's been in colorado for 13 years and he'll never get rid of it. I kind of enjoy it. Reminds me of home. Southie treats me like a queen. He took me a concert at red rocks and always texts and calls and wants to hang out. Tonight he's cooking me dinner and I'll get to catch up on True Blood!

The pornstar is officially out of the picture. He would get emotional over texts and tell me that he's falling in love with me. Then when it would come time to meet, he'd cancel last minute. I'm not a dumb chick, I dropped him like it's hot.

Blondie is around, but I've kinda been avoiding him. He's a cutie, but it's just such a pain to get together and frankly the fargo accent was getting to me.

And of course the Author... After work on Sunday I went straight to the bars to watch football. 6 hours later, I admit I wasn't sober. I texted him for a booty call and he couldn't because he had deadlines to meet. I may have snipped a rude text back... ok i totally did because he sent me an email later that night hoping i wasn't upset but his work is very important to him. I apologized and haven't heard from him all week.

Who will come, who will go? I dunno, but I'll keep you posted.

Taking a break

Yesterday my horoscope told me to relax and rest in the afternoon/evening... to take a break because life has been overwhelming. Did I listen? of course not.

Yesterday was my day off and the Taste of Colorado was going on. I wanted to go, but of course all my friends or co-workers were working. I should have strolled through the event by myself or just relaxed at home. But of course I posted on craigslist.

I met a hottie and of course have a few men on the back-burner, but today I really started to feel the exhaustion. I am beat. I had to work, then I played in a softball game... and the headache that began earlier in the day got worse.

Blondie wanted to hang out but I canceled on him. I just needed a break. So I popped in some 30 Rock thanks to Netflix and took... a... break.

I am feeling much better, which is good... because tomorrow the German Daddy is taking me out for a nice dinner.

Exhausting

I started my first inpatient ward rotation last week. I gotta say it's just about as hectic as the intensive care unit. The difference? People really aren't that sick, and I feel like a baby-sitter... a very expensive baby-sitter.

The cases are not fulfilling, and the workload eats up a lot of my time and energy. But then again, so do the myriad of men in my life.

Which is what you're all really dying to know about.

I told the Insomniac that I'd get back to him when my time cleared up... i know i know... I pulled the doctor card. It's just such a fantastic card though!

Blondie came with me to a model casting call. He even walked the runway since they needed men. I'll be kinda upset if he gets the gig and I don't. But we finally had sex and it was sloppy and drunk. I'm sure we'll try again this weekend.

The Author and I have finally settled into an agreeable arrangement. At least emotionally agreeable for me. We have great sex once in a while and we also hang out as great friends. It works.

Did I ever mention the Pornstar? I don't think so... I'll have to give him his own post, assuming he and I ever meet.

Then there's the German Daddy... will he be a sugar daddy? will he become a boyfriend? I have no idea how this one is gonna turn out, but he's hot and blond and very well-off... let's find out if he's well-endowed too.

And that brings me to the title of this post. Doctoring and dating at the same time is exhausting... but I don't think I could function any other way.
