Remember that? (If you don&#8217;t, go re-read last Friday&#8217;s entry.)<\/p>\n<p><b>Well, now I know how long it was slated to last.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Can you see where this is going?<\/p>\n<p><b>Yup.

She&#8217;d called me on Saturday afternoon to say Monday wouldn&#8217;t work for a second date, but she&#8217;d let me know after she checked out her work schedule. No biggie. Stuff happens and plans can always be adjusted.<\/p>\n<p><b>Or so I thought.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Without even a &#8220;hello,&#8221; she&#8217;s telling me she can&#8217;t see me again.

I&#8217;d thought it was going to be a great ranting topic, but I ran out of steam and was about to start going in circles, so I stopped writing. I talked to a friend about the whole thing last night, and agreed with her that the flake wasn&#8217;t really worth the frustration I was feeling over the whole situation. I decided to sleep on it and see if I wanted to keep ranting this morning.<\/p>\n<p><b>Obviously, I don&#8217;t.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>So, I&#8217;ll just end this post with one final thought.<\/p>\n<p><b>I wouldn&#8217;t mind her flaking out nearly as much (or at all) if I&#8217;d gotten to fuck her.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>(Fine.
