Are you still hopeful?

Sex and the City Status:

• So I am rather enjoying Season 5 of Sex and the City. Season 4 was starting to put me in a funk. This season is full of finding “Mr Right” type scenarios. You have the on again off again but still very deep love of Samantha with Richard. You have Charlotte going through all sorts of love courses, self help books and she gets a bit scared but in the end she still believes in love and remains an optimist. Then you have Carrie. She meets Jack Berger the charismatic writer that gives Carrie that “spark” feeling. I also love that he collects lost playing cards he finds on the streets of New York. He tells Carrie that once you know they are out there you see them everywhere. Sure Jack has a girlfriend so at this point we don’t exactly know what role he will play in Carrie’s life but he still gives her that “spark”.

Now let’s take this home. Like Carrie I have the Mr Big type that knocks me off my feet (2 in fact), I have also met the Richard that Samantha deals with. Like Charlotte, I too remain an optimist but have been scared a few times lately that what I want isn’t out there. Now the Carrie and Jack Berger lesson… just recently a few people have given me that “spark”. I also seem to be seeing more people that deserve a second glimpse. Now that I know they are out there I am seeing them everywhere!

• There is retro Adidas swim trunk dude at the pool (Wow!)
• Sweater guy in the food court (I have been dared to ask him out. So unlikely but I love accepting challenges)
• Awesome dresser at the bus stop (He seems like a great guy but has a hint of crazy to him and isn’t approachable)
• Today there was “I can’t believe I talked to him” guy from the elevator LOL

So are you a Charlotte? Are you still hopeful?

P.S. “Adidas Adonis”, “Suave Sweater”, and “Deadly Duds” if you are reading this, consider this my first move, Your turn! 😉
