Wow! Summer has ended and where did it go?

Summer started in Seattle for me and it is going to end (belatedly) in Seattle too. I am headed back there next week to hang with my guy, Brian. We both finally realized that whatever "it" is between us is here to stay (since I don't own a magic 8 ball, I can't say for how long). Brian is considering moving here to Sassyland to be near me. One of the things we will be discussing next week. I can't wait to be with him. He is a sweetie and he adores me. Who wouldn't love that???? It is refreshing that a man wants to make or is even considering making such a big move/sacrifice for me. He is the first in a long long time.

This past weekend was quite the hootenany (aka Cirque d'Insane) for my sister and I. We went to Pennsylvania for a cousin's funeral. My sister's family is quite ...colorful...for want of a kinder word. All manner of relatives crawled out of holes to attend and frankly some of them should have just stayed put. The bright side was connecting with cousins I had not seen in over 25 years. The down side was being uber stressed out from the ridiculous behaviors displayed by the parental unit generation.

We had my eight year old niece with us and we stopped in Hershey Park so she would have at least one pleasant memory from this weekend. That was fun! I loved seeing her face light up when she saw the wall of Reeses. That kid is amazing and I just love her! I loaded up on chocolate too! We needed mass quantities to cope!

So that is my summer wrap up. I probably won't be posting again until I return from Seattle. Hope everyone had a great summer like I did. I have been ridiculously busy with building my practice, finishing my masters (in the home stretch with the final two classes), and traveling. Life is great!

Ciao

So at long last it has happened...I am in love. Yep! You read that correctly. And he is in love with me. Of course, with the entire U.S. between us it is a bit difficult. We have decided to adopt what I call the "Zen of Sassy & B-man". You see, when we met, neither one of us was interested in getting involved because I was visiting Seattle for vacay. We merely wanted to hang out and have a few laughs. That evolved into much more than we anticipated, but while we hung out we never worried about "us" or the future of "us". We just enjoyed our time together with no pressures. We continue with the "lets just enjoy each other's company and not worry about the future" 'tude. So I am just enjoying the feeling of being in love. The cool thing is we have decided to be a couple when we are together, and go our own way when we aren't with the option to change that. I like the freedom of that and so does he. Really, it appears I have found my male counterpart because we are so on the same wave length. B-man treats me like his Sassy Princess and he really likes having a princess of sass in his life. Will it last? Who knows, but I am liking the no-stress approach to our Zen.

Verizon sent me an offer too good to resist: a brand new Blackberry Storm. I love my new little toy. I am officially a Crackberry whore.

Went to a rave over the weekend...first one ever. It was an upscale event at our new and very expensive art museum. I was (of course I was!) offered some E in the women's bathroom. The weird girl who offered it pulled a baggie of E outta her panties....ewwwww! Even if I did do drugs...ewwwwww. She was skank-o-rama!

Going back to Seattle to see B-man. Definitely a little fire between us. We had hoped it would cool off given we live on opposite coasts, but it hasn't so we are just going to take it day by day. No long-term plans as of yet.

Headed to Philly and Toronto in a few short weeks. Woo hoo! Can't wait. This is the year of Sassy in many many respects. I think I have a new client in Portland, Oregon. This couple I met there...the hubby is a surgeon with his own clinic. They invited me to spend a week on their yacht, but the timing was very short notice and I couldn't get my schedule together that quickly (or find a decent plane ticket) so we rainchecked for next year. That will work out well for B-man and I if I get more clients on the West Coast. It will make the commute more lucrative for me.

Ciao dahlings!
