ugging….to start. Ok, now I can move forward. So the date….it was good, Em didn’t make P-H cry and he bought her dinner. But Em was thrown for a loop when P-H mentioned casually that he was being stalked by one of her friends….yikes. That’s a tricky situation to navigate. I personally would go with the “she’s more of an acquaintance than a friend” route…that’s always a safe bet. So the two lovebirds sat under the moon and discussed life, love, and all the rest – with Em doing the occasional nod and smile because of P-H's penchant for using big words that only the Ivy-educated understand. Well played, Em! So then the night draws to a close and P-H walks little Emmerson to her door. So what now? She can’t close the night with a kiss can she?...she’s playing the whole relig card. But she had a really good time and wants to make sure P-H knows it….tough call….oh no, he’s leaning in…..too late, there’s the hug. And as he looks longingly into Emmerson’s eyes leaning in for a kiss, what does Em do?, does she lean in too and relent? Nope, she lays another hug on the boy. Lame. All is well though because shortly after P-H left he texted Em to let her know what a great time he had. Could the relig thing actually work?... something to think about.

Look, But Don't Touch
Hello kiddies, sorry I’ve been away so long, I bet you feel more abandoned than Britney Spear’s kids. My apologies. I’m back with some more juiciness. Last night’s lunar eclipse not only brought out the crazies, but it brought out Emmerson’s newest man, Princeton-Harvard, as well. We, the lovely roommates finally got to meet one of Em’s elusive suitors, and this one may be the mother of them all – wealthy, tall, strapping and almost two-times Ivy league educated (pretentious much?). And can you believe he’s also just the nicest of guys to boot?! So in keeping with the evening the two journeyed to Griffith Observatory to watch the lunar eclipse and join the (geeky) star party happenings over there. Ya ya ya…at least it was an original date (it can’t be duplicated for another 7 years I hear) But I’m getting ahead of myself here, so let’s back up a bit. See Em had decided last week that despite her two previous dates with P-H, she was done with dating for a while – she wasn’t ready (and lets face it there are no men emotionally strong enough to endure all of Em’s berating) So to make this sort of unwelcomed date more bearable and to try a little experiment, Emmerson took the advice of a friend and decided to go the relig route to dating. So while this mostly means no touching at all, Em’s going with a slightly modified verision of only h
