Ms Leslie takes a bath
Well, I wasn�t going to tell this to the world, but hey!��� I guess I�m supposed to be honest here, huh?

I�ve been trying to think of places to go, alone, where I�ll have a chance to spend more time with people� ok.. men. Thrilled by the fact that a guy had gotten me a drink at the casino the other night, I decided last night to go back and try my luck.. in both senses of the word.

Well, as far as guys go, I am two for two. A really nice guy talked my ear off for a while last night. He told me everything from his career to how much money he had in the bank. Now, it was just a chat, mind you�nothing special, but I was flattered anyway.

My luck in the other department didn�t hold up so well though. I lost a lot of money (for me) last night; Money I really can�t afford to do without. I came home wondering why it is that I can�t make myself buy the things I need, like a chest of drawers or a microwave, but I can sit there and give it away to a slot machine. I came home feeling pretty stupid.

I�ll forget the money before too long, but I reckon I need to think of something a little less spendy to get myself out there with other people� ok� men.

Today, I�m healing up a little. I�m spending the day cleaning house and listening to music. Ann�s daughter, Mike, is here for the day, so they�ll spend it together while I recuperate and try to renew my spirit.
