~Cue Announcer guy~
NEW GUY!!!
~Enters narrator~

We last hear from NG on Thursday night with the following text messages:

NG: Sorry, alot of stuff going on. Will call you Saturday and clue you in

Me; K, Just hard to keep my panties out of a bunch, I am playing the "what if game". Old habits die hard

NG: Just doing what I need 2 do @ this current moment in time

Me: Thank you for keeping me in the loop. Is there anything I can do to help?

NG: Just be my friend and understanding.

Me: Done ;o)

~Cue anouncer guy~
What will happen?? Lets find out as we rejoin Bambi after this commercial break.

Friday: No call, no text
Saturday: NO call and no Text
Sunday: NO CALL, NO TEXT

On Sunday, I am doing my shopping about the Super shopping cement discount mogil, and stumble into the books. (OH NO not the books.) I am always caught by a self help book or two (damn them for making them so appealing...with words like, WINNER, GET, HAVE, and BE!) So anyway, I find a copy of Charlote's Web and think, OH I should start reading that to the class, and then we can watch the movie. So I thumb through it (ONLY 184 pages...I remember thinking when I was a kid that was HUGE) OK then I see it. A book with a "RING" on it and simply put "all the Rules". HMMMM What is this? Could it be...

A self help book to finding and KEEPING Mr Right! HOLY SHITE I mean WOW!!!

So I gobble up the 380 pages like a bear eating for the first time out of hibernation. I CAN NOT put it down.

What have I learned?
I have been following these 35 rules as I pick and choose. OOPPSS!! So here are a few that I have started applying...
#1 Be a creature like no other.
#2 Don't talk to a man first
#5 Don't call him and RARELY call him back
#6 end the phone call 1st.

Back from our commercial break...
Monday night....
~Cue Phone rings~
Me: Hello?
NG: Hey, whats going on?
ME: Oh just getting ready for school and watching the Golden globes.
NG: Well, I wanted to fill you in on everything, now that I have a min to talk.
Me: Oh? (remeber the book said be light and airy)
NG: Well, I will be living in the old house, with my aunt both.
Me: How are you going to do that?
NG: Well, EX has a buldging disc at 5 and 7 virtabrea and needs someone to drive SON around and such, since she is on pain meds. She also needs someone to keep things around the house up.
Me: Well, why doesn't her family help?
NG: basically I am the only one here and ABLE to help. I am also her LAST resort!
ME: Well, so are you two getting back together? Is that what you want?
NG: I don't know. I didn't even get to talk to her and when I did try to talk to her about it, she was snotty and rude and left to go to bed ALONE.
Me: (getting irritated that he still hasn't told me what HE wants) So, what is it that you want?
NG: I am just going to do what I can...
ME: (Bambi, remember "the rules" it's been 12 min and we are supposed to end this after 10..remember, leave him wanting.) Well,
NG: So have you missed me?
Me: ~thumbing through book~ (self: Crap what do I say? turn pages turn) OK be mysterious..."SURE! haven't you missed ME?"
NG: Yeah, what did you do all weekend with out me?
ME: Oh I worked and hung with the "girls"
NG: "The girls?" What did you do?
Me: Well, we went out and had a great time.
NG: OH
Me: Hey, listen, I have to get going and finish my grades for school.
NG: WHAT? you are trying to get rid of me?
Me: OH no, I really need to get this done. I look forward to hearing from you soon
NG: OK, be good.
Me: Bye
NG: BYE (longing in his voice)

YES! IT WORKS!!!

~Back after these commercial messages~

So now, I am a "rules girl". I have broken a few with New Guy PRIOR to KNOWING what they are. I am hoping to see, if in fact I have "rescued" this little budding relationship or if by me following the rules, I will get all that I want...

~duh dun da~
