Re: Since I can\'t say this to anyone in \"real\" life:
Last week I was talking with a lifeguard on the North Shore of Oahu who followed his passion across the ocean. He grew up in LA then followed his love of the water to where he wanted to be.
Now he pulls people out of giant surf on occassion, and the rest of the time hangs out on beaches filled with women from all over the world.
Take you time and explore, theres no hurry. Check out London and anywhere else your feelin'. Chill and hang out where the locals do & talk with people.
Traveling will open your eyes to more than you possibly thought was out there.

Excellent news about the trip, RH. Good for you. Have a blast! (And where are you meeting up with Keira Knightley? That's on the itinerary, right?? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img])
Re: Since I can\'t say this to anyone in \"real\" life:
I don't know about other girls at the gym - granted I'm not like you guys- but I'd rather be left alone at the gym. I look like hell, i'm probably sweating and I think i look like a spaz. I hate when guys check me out let alone try to talk to me.
Re: Since I can\'t say this to anyone in \"real\" life:
BFG: Thanks! I really don't drink, but let's hang for a bit for sure!
As for gym chicks: yep, I talk to lots of them... some of them like me... but it's the "professional" barrier. If I get any sort of rep as an ass-chaser, female clients will decline rapidly!

So, I don't wanna totally hijack HR's thread here, but you're saying that the gym is basically "off limits?" A guy would have to hope to run into the girl at the grocery store another time? What are the odds of that, sans stalking?
Also, women don't look like hell at the gym. They just think they do.
Finally, do you hate it when guys check you out, or do you hate it when that creepy, weird guy who thinks he's the shit, but isn't, checks you out? You know. That guy over there, with the headband and the Dolphin shorts. And, a weight belt...

The 3 men that I've had in my life since 21yrs old have all 3 been friends before lovers.. I'd much rather meet someone who sees/knows me as I am when doing something I love.. and can see throught the rough appearance and surprise him with other sophisticated or sexy looks at later times.

If it's like around here then if you settle down and get the word around that you are not single anymore.. the female clients will decline rapidly as well [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]
Re: Since I can\'t say this to anyone in \"real\" life:
Well, I don't have much more to contribute, RH. But, congrats on making the leap to London! You're gonna have a blast bro. And, seriously don't sweat the small stuff. I got married right out of college and while I've never regretted a minute of my marriage, there have been certain limitations as to what we can do and when. We've both got jobs, lives and responsibilities, even though we don't have any children. Yeah, we can pick up most times on a moment's notice and go somewhere, but there is some planning that's involved. You seriously need to sit back and enjoy the ride right now. You will miss it when it's gone. Oh, and one more thing, you are NOT your father. You're a different person with different needs & wants, so don't compare yourself to anyone but yourself.
As far as a profession, have you considered trying to become a stunt double? It's daring, dangerous, physically active, you get some serious silver screen time if you're good, plus you raise the chances of meeting Miss Knightly. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
Re: Since I can\'t say this to anyone in \"real\" life:
Not a bad idea, 007. I heard Pretty-boy Orlando Bloom is in dire need of help in the bedroom scenes for "Pirates of the Caribbean 3"... stunt cock anyone?
Haven't heard a peep from the girl since the flowers thing. First time in about a year I've gone more than 2 days without at least talking to her on the phone. Says it all, I think. *crossing another one of the list*
I'm hoping for some terrorist action on the plane over:
NY Times reporting: "And it seems that Boston's RockHard, having an early mid-life crisis, deadlifted three of the terrorists out of the plane. Other passengers say that they overheard him repeatedly mutterring "Through the hips, through the hips". Authorities are unsure as to how these events came to pass. In honor of his actions, Mr. Hard will be met at the airport by England's star actress Keira Knightley. Mr. Hard refused knighthood from the queen in exchange for three nights alone with Ms. Knightley."
Re: Since I can\'t say this to anyone in \"real\" life:
I think it's offlimits- some girls- like me aren't comfortable at the gym to begin with so just going is a stretch. I'd rather meet a guy at the bookstore, grocery store, anywhere else than the gym. I'm completely self conscious at the gym. I know guys think we look good, and I don't have an issue with not wearing makeup/having my hair done, it's that I feel like I'm working out parts of my body that I'm not comfortable with at the moment. I hate those girls that go to the gym all made up I don't see the point- you're going to sweat it off anyways. Hmm... I guess you're right about the guys checking you out thing. I'm ok with it if it isn't the creepy guy, but I am also not interested in the hotshot who has just checked out anything w/ a set of boobs. The gym is just not a place where I'm interested in being picked up. Now the pool? That's a different story. Don't ask me how it's different from the gym (especially considering they're in the same building) but it is.
Sorry RH I didn't mean to hijack. That's just my .02 cents! Mary, I got your pm [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ] me too me too I wanna go! Okay Rock, make sure when you go that you see what you want to in London then GO! Head out and see as much of the country as you can. My favorites for my own personal reasons-Bath, Bristol and the New Forest and probably Cornwall/Tintagel if you enjoy that commercialisation of history sort of thing. If you're going to see Stonehenge anyway-don't forget to hit Avebury too, there are so many other henges that don't get the press. On my list that I haven't done: hike Hadrian's Wall, visit the Lake District and hike Snowdon. Have a fabulous trip. I'm envious beyond belief. Oh and have a snakebite for me please! Or at least have a pub crawl that you actually HAVE to crawl from. I've been trying for years to perfect a pub crawl in Little Rock but the damn public transport sucks.
