God works in mysterious ways. I do not always claim to understand what the point is...in fact most of the time I have no idea what God is trying to teach me, only that s/he is definitely in command!!!

This morning I woke up in a tizzy about B.B. Buzz and I were on the phone at 7:30am, she was helping me get my head around the whole situation: do I like this guy for real or is he just a placewarmer? are the red flags I see real or are they my way of rejecting him before he rejects me? and mostly we talked about "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT DATE ALL ABOUT, ANYWAY?" Imagine, two women trying to get inside the mind of a 34 year old man who is not comfortable expressing his honest feelings. So that was my morning. Splendid indeed.

So I went for a run with Taylor, to get it all out of my system. I realized that it's time for me to move on from this one. Two dates...two awesome dates. He's fun. But he's either not into it or he's scared. Both of which do me no good and neither of which I want or deserve. So we ran and we chatted and I sweated it out and it felt good.

Then we went to Whole Foods to get sandwiches and do some grocery shopping. And there I was in the bath products aisle, looking for some soap. And as I was trying to decide which soap I wanted, I saw on the bottom shelf the kind of soap that Broadway uses and I laughed thinking I better not get that soap. Then I hear someone say, "Oh....hi." And I look up and there he is. Broadway is standing there, looking quite adorable, just as I remember.

I haven't laid eyes on him in at least a year. There are many places I imagine I will run into him...Whole Foods never occurs to me as one of them. At least not Whole Foods at 2 on a Saturday.

My heart started beating fast. I hadn't showered after the run and my hair didn't look its glamour best! And here I was, face to face with Broadway. If, in that moment, you had asked me the name of the guy I was all worked up over this morning, I would not have been able to tell you. That's what Broadway does to me! There's something there...he's dangerous for me and today, of all days, I did not need to see him...

He asked me for my number (although he said he probably still has it). I gave it to him and I took his. He's single (I asked - he blushed). He said we should get lunch...I laughed as I walked away...And my head has been spinning for the past two hours.

I know that's God at work. I am just not sure how or what I am supposed to do with it.
