my face

that's me up there. and that's usually what i feel/look like when i'm on a date. the expression on my face captures the gist of my feelings and the thoughts that swirl around my head. i'm either utterly confused or strangely intrigued. and sometimes i'm utterly confused BECAUSE i'm strangely intrigued. so picture this face and imagine me thinking --

1) "huh? what are you talking about...rim job?"
2) "wait...you're 41?"
3) "i thought we were going to eat dinner...this is a bar."
4) "oh..your hair ISN'T green?"
5) "you're perfect...but (insert flaw)...and that's really important to me."
6) "okay let me get this straight-you're not over your ex yet?"
7) "you moved to LA to become a filmmaker? and an actor? oh you sing, too?"
8) "you don't go to west hollywood because you hate gay people?"
9) "so how long have you been with your boyfriend?"
10) "...."

as i embark on this dating journey, i look forward to the moment that my expression (the one up there), will be coupled with this thought:":))))))))))))))!!!!!!!!!!" because i'm sure that when that feeling comes, i'll be completely confused as to what is happening to me.
