“You’ve never been married? What’s wrong with you?” I get that question a lot. Ironically, from guys who have been divorced like 4 times. But I’m starting to recognize what might be wrong with me. I’m a frickin’ work-o-holic. Now when I was dating Bohdi, I was very balanced. It’s when I’m not dating someone that I throw myself into work.
I’ve clocked more hours in my “Apple office” in the past month than many of the Apple employees. Look at my sweet set up! I started editing my videos in iMovie but was convinced to upgrade to Final Cut, so now I’m learning Final Cut and it is SO FUN!!!
The staff at the Apple store have affectionately recognized me as the “Norm” of the store… if only I could get them all to yell “Jess” when I walk in. One of the trainers is already answering to “my Apple Husband.” He must get that a lot because it didn’t phase him when I said it.
But seriously, in the past two days alone, I went to my Apple office from 11:30am-6:15pm, went home walked/fed my dog, ate dinner, watched two tv shows, went to bed and was back at the office at 8am. By 4, one of the guys asked how I was doing and I couldn’t remember if I’d seen him already that day or if I had seen him the day before.
And worst of all, I don’t blink because I’m concentrating so hard. But, yesterday, I was working on a Keynote presentation that happened to have a slide about this site, and I was reminded that I needed to get a life!
So, today I went back on line, apologized to a few guys who I’d left hanging, responded to a few new ones, and it’s time to get back on track… after all, as much as I joke that my laptop is my husband, he’s not going to to take me fishing… actually, he’s not even a “he,” he’s an “it.” I really need to get out of the “office” and meet a man!!!
After surviving through a marriage and divorce, where
All I wanted was to be kidnapped by pirates. I wouldn’t wish marriage on anyone,
Okay well maybe people I really don’t like. There is nothing worse than having to
Emotionally disconnect from someone you thought would always love you.
The fact of the matter is people change, economy’s self distruct , shit happens, and love is not forever. But there will always be a person who comes into your life to show you something about yourself, to teach you a lesson, or grant you a gift. It may not be forever, but it will be for a little while.
Hey… it doesn’t have to be marriage, I’d settle for “a little while” 🙂
You could get a dog – but I wouldn’t want you leaving the dog alone all day while you are at the Apple store. 🙂 So yep, get out and meet a guy.
If I could fit my dog in a stroller, she could come. But being a Saint Bernard she’s going to need a really big stroller. Not to worry though. She happily spends her time away from me with grandma and grandpa who spoil her silly!
Gotta love how accommodating the Apple Store employees are! I love that they offer their customers so much support and help 🙂
They seriously ROCK!!!
Sounds like you have the perfect set-up at your Apple office. Although it does sound like you could stand to get out more. 😉 Looking forward to hearing about your new adventures!
Good to see you have found your element! Apple store by you sounds great!
Just like your business, what is your goal, your plan, your strategy for a partner?
Perhaps you’ll meet the guy of your dreams in the Apple store???
I do where makeup when I go just in case 😉
