Mom Knows Best

I got an email from my mom today, asking me about a Christmas gift, and then she ended with:

"Do you know yet what you and B are? Or will you be agreeing to go out with Coach?"

[Coach = new, very iffy possibility. While I was home over Thanksgiving break, my old boss asked me if I was seeing anyone. At the time, things with B and I were good and I didn't really know what we were. He called me his girl, babe, etc. and when I would hang out with other people, he told me "not to kiss any other guys." So my response at the time was, kind of. Intrigued, I asked why she wanted to know. Turns out, she wanted to set me up with the high school football coach from my hometown. He was 2 grades above me and I cheered while he played football and basketball when I was in high school. He went on to play football at a D-2 college, and is now back here coaching. I used to have a high school crush on him : )]

So I emailed my mom back, saying if she asked to set me up with Coach again, I would agree...what the heck, right?

She emailed me back saying:

"Yes....what the heck!!!! He [B] was just another toad...you will meet your prince someday...I promise!!! Just keep holding out for him and don't settle!!!"

Oh man mom, you're funny.

On a side note, B has text me the last 2 days, which surprised me. Today he told me to have a safe trip home, which was very sweet of him. Obviously he was thinking about me and knew there was a chance I was going home today. But don't worry, I'm not putting any stock into his recent texts. I am taking the approach that I'm not going to text him...if he wants to talk to me, he'll have to contact me : ) Apparently it's worked thus far, lol.


Today the ex had surgery. I resisted the urge to text his sister-in-law to find out how he was.
