Haven't Been Starving and It Shows

I have money ... and it was burning a hole in my pocket. I was in the mood to spend, spend, spend and update my wardrobe. I wanted to pick up some clothes for my upcoming NYC trip but alas, I was fruitless.

I did so much shopping but only bought one shirt, one skirt, one purse, two pairs of shoes and perfume. The problem was that nothing appealed to me and nothing fit!

I was so mad because I'm in between sizes and it's not the size I want. A few weeks ago, I had a good week where I worked out four days in a row and then last week, it only was two days of spinning. I have to get back on track with my diet and gym routine. The little blue diet pills aren't working on their own, so it's time to kick it in serious gear and rededicate myself. There are some big winds of change (I think, hope and pray!) coming my way and I'm ready to meet them head on.

Let's do this!

To Kiss Or Not To Kiss? That is the Question

Is it aproprate to kiss on a first date or better to avoid it? On this particular date, my choice was to avoid it.

Although I had a good time and thought it was possible we'd go again, I wasn't quite there. Since then, we've hung out a handful of times, sometimes alone, other times with a group. I have a great time with him and feel so comfortable but still haven't felt like it was the right time for a first kiss.

So tonight I opened up explained my conservative nature and told him that I was still healing from a breakup and that I wasn't sure if I was really ready to move on. Even though I put the breaks on things, it seemed to have the opposite affect on him...grabbing my hand after dinner and reaching around me for a hug.

The moment came when he pulled inf ront of my house and asked for the third time to walk me to my door. Leaving the choice to him he walked me to my door made a silly plight to come inside. That's when it happened he went in for the kiss and I obligied.

It wasn't great but wasn't terrible, my preference wouldve been to wait especialy regarding my recent past, but now where do we go? I'm ready to press pause but he seems to be stuck on play.
