Any of you fools reside in Seattle?

women
get fat when you marry them
I can look at a gal's waistline in the gym and can tell how healthy her relationship is
 
man they all change physically and mentally, just slap a ring on
 
Well I have a little bit of an update from yesterday which if works out will change things quite a bit. I applied for a part-time group fitness coordinator yesterday (it was posted as 12-15 hours weekly), and I received an email this morning. After emailing back and forth today I was asked to audition teaching two classes - cycling (noon Friday) and Body Pump (Saturday morning). I would be teaching 6 classes weekly (included in the 12-15) for $2K a month - which is not half bad, at all. I'm feeling a bit rusty since I haven't taught in 6 six weeks... but I've taught both of these for more than 3 years, so there's still a level of comfort there at least. Wish me luck. :)

Why haven't you been paid by your regular job?
 
I have been - but it took 2 weeks after I got here - had to catch up on some bills with the first paycheck. Just got paid again, $1,300 for rent and $1,000 or so in traveling expenses to get my dog... it's just the catching up.
 
good to hear Rachel, I was thinking about you a couple days ago. Maybe it's just me projecting but you sound unhappy...just make sure the relationship is healthy if you're gonna go ahead and stay committed to him. How often do you feel good vs. bad? Unhealthy relationships can make you depressed and you won't even realize it. Soon, you'll need sedatives to sleep ;) lol j/k...no but really...you don't want it to change the way you look at love do you? Just because someone loves you does not make up for whatever harm they cause you. If you're like me, you like having someone to love so much and get used to it, that when it ends or even if it's bad you might do everything you can to get that feeling and stability back? Having someone with grief isn't better than not having someone at all, and it can actually cause a ton of damage...I've cared about men who I believe actually cared about me and wanted a relationship, but were not interested in maintaining a healthy relationship. Sometimes you just have to walk away from situations like that. Once they've been gone awhile I start to notice that I only saw the good things about them, they were actually really shitty people, possible personality disorders in there...but if anything at least just self-centered shitty people. lol Sorry if that's not your situation and I'm totally projecting lol.. Good luck Rachel :heart:

Aw, thanks girlie. I'm in a weird spot with him. I've loved him for a long time, and it's not that he is bad to me in any way. He's just got some emotional walls up and tendencies that are just him - He and I have done the long distance thing now for a while and gone weeks without seeing each other, and I don't stop missing him... and it's not that I'm just looking at the good and forgetting the bad. To me he's just worth it - he balances me out,I feel free to be silly and joke around him and act like a total idiot, which is something I've never been able to do with anybody. I'm always so serious.

I'm upset at the way things have panned out. He's apologized. He realizes he should have been able to talk to me about his feelings. Ultimately maybe it's better that he didn't because I wouldn't have reached out to this company and asked them to hire me and I wouldn't be taking this chance that could be a really great thing in my life.

I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason.

Good...that's good. You started a LDR right when I attempted one so I've always been interested to hear how you're doing. Yes I believe the same thing...good luck over there :heart:
 
My wife grew up in Bellevue.

True story.
 
my time in jail I didn't have a single erection
but I made a few equally divided friends
black white and hispanic
no asians though
they be smart and avoid a sentence
 
when I flew into Portland I was impressed by that pair of mountains
I didn't get that 19 year old mullatto pussy I was seeking
but
what the hell
where is puddlemonkey
 
I was born and then spent 30 days in a incubator
I can't recall and I'm not going to fact check my mom

So no thoughts on moving back?
 
Well, we've loosely talked about "putting a time frame" on this - but for me, I'd need a commitment i.e. engagement to even think about something like that. In a perfect world, I'd stay here for a year (11 more months)and then be able to work remotely. Everything I do is very much PC-based and Customer Engagement (web training, etc) and should be able to be done from anywhere, given the ability for my team and I to effectively communicate...

is that realistic?
Click to expand...

Somewhat... the degree of, depends on whether you're talking about my job or him. He's always saying that he hates that we can't normally "date", that there's always a start and stop to when he gets to see me... and I basically tell him that he needs to get over that. (I see it as just the way he makes excuses/puts up walls - he calls it "head trash"). He and I communicate as well or better than most couples... even this far apart. I just feel like we need some sort of plan.

As far as the job... well, I work for a company that provides online project management/collaboration software (SaaS), so... I don't see why not. :)
 
How you liking the weather over here? Don't worry, there will be some small bits of blue in the sky soon.
You should get into hiking, there are better hikes within 100 miles of you now than 1000 miles of grand rapids(not counting canadia).

I like the area - I'm generally not good at making friends I guess. Just lonely.

Find people based on interest.
I can make friends anywhere there is House/Techno.
Unless it is only played at gay clubs and then I would be lonely.
 
PICK3 said:
Why do you think that is?

I'm pretty withdrawn in IRL and generally an anti-social bastard. Butt, you seem pretty outgoing.

It's odd - I am outgoing, I'm just somehow lacking the communication skills to open up. Also, I don't like idiots.

Yeah - finding people with similar interests is definitely key - that's a big reason that I want to get into a gym.

I'm going to an event downtown Seattle tonight in which my boss is a keynote speaker along with somebody from Microsoft, maybe I'll meet somebody ;) They're calling it something like 'The David & Goliath of Cloud Computing'; should be interesting. At least I'm getting out.

On another positive note - I've worked out for 5 days in a row, finally getting back to a schedule.
 
working out helps clear the funk too. Gets ya feeling good. With just a little bit of effort you'll do great Rachel. You seem like the kind of person people would be drawn to easily.

That's outstanding advice.

Getting into a good routine is huge.

Then pushing yourself into a few social situations will put you over the top. It's like getting hit by lightening; You can't make it happen but it helps to hang-out in thunderstorms.

Have you got out to check out the sights at all? You should go to Leavenworth, or take a ferry over to the Olympics.

Snowboarding season is coming up, and there are tons of nice mtns around.
 
Seattle was a nice place the 1 and only time I visited. There was quite a bit of night life opportunities for a single person living there. The only downside was the weather was gloomy the whole time I was there. It made me want to stay in my hotel room and watch PPV. That's the best thing about living in San Diego. We have 77 degree weather all year long. Never too hot or too cold, day or night.
