Message:
Sassy, sorry you’re under a time crunch right at the end of August… we’ll figure this out so we can meet again… and in not so brief a fashion…

I read this on my way to work and meant to answer but work was totally busy and by the time I got home I didn’t have to brain cells to rub together… and I feel uninspired.  Maybe tomorrow.

Stem cell treatment halts MS progression in 91% of patients
A group of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients have had their immune systems destroyed and then rebuilt using their own blood stem cells. Three years later, 86 percent of them have had no relapses, and 91 percent are showing no signs of MS development.

A little (or a lot) of unhinging is in order….next week would be sweet to meet!

Hiya Handsome! Thank you for that wonderful thought. I must beg your patience. Sadly, next week is looking overwhelming for me at work – running two big conferences. If you can wait until the weekend or the week of Sept. 1, you will get a much sassier Sassy. Please do not take this as stalling or whatnot… you just happened on my craziest week of the year. If you want to email or chat a bit more online as you wait, we can try that. If not, let’s plan for and dream of a salacious September!

Groomsmen Dancing

August 19, 2015 Wednesday

12:02 am
Seven minutes of fun groomsmen dancing! The Bride and Groom are professional dancers.

No cold feet here! Clad in tuxes, a groom and professional dancer, Kirk Henning, from Richmond, VA, surprised his ballerina bride, Valerie Tellmann-Henning, with an epic choreographed dance on their wedding day (July 2015). Kirk and his eight equally adorable groomsmen managed to pull off lengthy medley of pop hits while Valerie thoroughly enjoyed the performance, clapping giddily as each song changed. In the video, the group dances its way through “Uptown Funk” (Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars), “Crazy” (Britney Spears), “Higher” (Classified), “Bailando” (Enrique Iglesias), “Danger Zone” (Kenny Loggins), “The World” (Brad Paisley) and finally “Shut Up and Dance” (by Walk the Moon) …

Good morning! Have a great one!

Had an appointment at Beth Israel Deaconess at their shoe clinic today.  Got fitted for some ugly comfortable shoes the podiatrist claims will be better for my feet.  At least it gave me an excuse for dinner at the best Chinese place in town! So good I forgot to take photos!  Shanghai Gate FTW!

10-Minute Man Being Glib

August 17, 2015 Monday
I waited for him to answer my questions.  Don’t want to be too eager and look desperate.

Message:
Good morning Sassy one! Hoping your week started off well…I’m trying to think of a good time to come see you and unhinge you. :-p

• Why are you on AM now? 
     • To talk to you
• When did you lose your virginity? 
     • the first time I had sex

• What is your favorite meal? 
     • Anything we eat together 
=====
I’m not sure why, but those answers felt like a slap in the face to me.  Ugh.  I took it like… “I’m not going to share anything personal with you.”  Am I wrong?   Maybe it’s a “not on AM, wait for email” situation.  If so, why not say that?  
I decided not to answer until I could get over that.  And not to ask anything more.  And not to share anything with him until he loosened up.  This should not be a one-way street!

Hiya Fred! Today was nutty at work… very little brain left. I did have fun thinking of you and un-hinging. Ha. Pick a safe time for you… I’ll be here.
