Sassy Mama in LA

A Latina Perspective on Entertainment, Lifestyle and Life.

On Monday I wasn’t looking my best. I took the Red Line to Hollywood to pick up S from day care. Somewhere between here and Hollywood a BEAUUUTIFUL man stepped onto my train. So what do I do? Prepare to slap me, cause I still am-

1- He moves toward my seat. I have my handbag and a bag with my book sitting next to me. I was listening to my mp3 player and ignored him, so I didn’t see how HOT he was. He hovers…I didn’t lift my stuff up…and he goes 2 seats down and sits there. I look back… he is beautiful. I feel dumb.

2- I glance back a few minutes later, he actually smiles at me. I have sunglasses on so I pretend I didn’t see cause I am petrified. Here is a good looking guy… he can’t be smiling at me so I panic and turn around and try not to stare again.

3- I stand up just before my stop…glance his way again…and he looks right at me and smiles yet again. I manage to give a small smile back. He mouths hi… and the train stops, it’s my stop… I look back one more time and he waves and I walk off.

I AM SO STUPID. Not for walking off I mean, cause obviously I had to go get my baby… but for the 20 mins on the train I could have chatted him up and wowed him with my wit and charm (ha!) and maybe have the beginning something interesting. I used to be a pro at this flirting thing.. what happened to me? Can I go get re-trained at some flirting school? Why can I be totally sexy and awesome with a guy that really does not interested me (2 so far… I will explain soon) and with one that does, I panic?

*sigh* maybe I will see him again and let’s see if I don’t get hit with a case of the stupids yet again.

Oh yea… driving on the freeway… BLOWS. I totally hit someone today in a stop and go movement, luckily no damage was done to either car or any person inside. It was such a small tap and sooo lucky she didn’t want insurance and all that info. She was actually pretty nice about it.

So that was my morning and it’s almost 10:30 and I have yet to drink my coffee. Hopefully tonight gets better as I will be going to a mom’s meetup at Beth’s who is really cool and i can’t wait to drink some margaritas and eat some yummy mexican food with a fun and fabulous group of women. S will be with my sister til about 4pm tomorrow, so I get some sleep in and alone time which is rare and sometimes depressing but I think much needed right now.

I ate a donut. that was bad… but i liked it!
