Ron Livingston was a GREAT guest star...

How funny... I have a draft in progress, but I've realized something fascinating (to me at least) which is: I really only like to "blog" in the middle of the night/morning when I've had just a little too much to drink, and some interesting conversation. As a fan of S&TC I will include you all in the most interesting of the conversations this evening. My friend Jane has been dating a married/separated prick named Brent for a little while. She had the misfortune of falling in love with this much older loser. Take it for granted that all those who love her have been telling her to run for a couple of months. "Props" must be given to her FINALLY kicking him to the curb. It's rough going now, and we'll see if she holds her heading, but still--fair winds are blowing at last (for all of those of a nautical metaphor bent).

As to myself... well, as far as I know, I'm single. I love the freeing idea of "maybe he's just not that into you." For some, that may sound cynical. But for me--I like that attitude. It feels freeing. I don't have to worry about some random guy I had one interesting conversation with in a coffee house or bar, sure he took my number, but he didn't call. SOOOOO WHAT?! Yes, sometimes the "maybe, he's just not that into you" thing makes me a little sad because I would love to be "into" the guy in question, but--at least I didn't waste any time over it. That's the best thing about this particular "Berger" inspired outlook. You never waste time over what may have been--in ANY circumstance. Does that make me even more--or less--cynical? I'm not entirely sure... but I'll take it. Sometimes the ones that pass you by are the ones you would have been glad to have passed by...

    It works with the casual ones.

    The ones that it hits you like a ton of bricks...well for theose, I just keep rereading chapters from "He's just not that into you" trying to just not pay attention to them anymore. Terribly difficult when you didn't start the situation with that outlook. Easier when you start it from the beginning.

    I liked him better in "Band of Brothers".
