#NerdsUnite: My name is Alicia and I'm doing 50 dates in 50 states (Arkansas)
When a polyamorous man in Arkansas agreed to go out with me, my first thought was “Holy molasses, was it rude that I didn’t invite his wife and girlfriend too?” What worried me most about going out with a polyamorous man was simply the logistics of polyamory. Everything else was merely a first date in the purest sense of the term: Meet. Eat. Walk. The usual.
#RealDeal: Quit being awkward, start being awesome (the story of the Wells Fargo Hottie)
As I walked down the street going into the bank I could hear the displacement of air from all of the heads spinning. My outfit was a really, really, big hit as I received multiple compliments just walking those few steps. I freaking LOVE living in West Hollywood! The men are so complimentary and when you look good they make SURE you know it!!!
#ThatAwkwardMomentWhen: You're at a karaoke bar in Koreatown and Kiefer Sutherland walks in ...
See, this is my issue ... based on commercial attraction and mathematical symmetry of my features, I NEVER have a problem getting a dude ... but keeping them from wanting to punch me in the face before the end of the night isn't always easy. I'm EXTREMELY opinionated, and at bars guys genuinely don't care to hear it.
I kept dancing.
Float like the feather, be free and fuck everything else, I thought.
#NerdsUnite: Ask That Nerdy Chick (so you trimmed pot, eh?)
It is my goal for 2013 to take a lot of my weird and wonky experiences as a lifecaster and help nerdy peeps out by providing a frank (not shirley) and honest answer to some weird and potentially random questions you may have about life.
#DatingDetox: Officially, officially complete. I can haz contacts! (FT. Nate Berkus)
While I was couch surfing I wore the same pair (super gross), and then one day wound up losing one of the lenses in a complication with the case. It sucked major balls, and I had to stare at everyone out of one eye ball for quite some time. Thankfully, I wasn't driving but it did cause a series of rather uncomfortable interactions with men thinking I was winking at them.
#EpicFail: Remember that one time a super gorgeous guy hit on you and you froze? Yeah. Good job.
He then steps out of line and walks around behind the counter. I try not to stare but my eyes have a mind of their own and have already decided that the hunt is on, and MAMA LIKES!!!
I wait in line for a minute or two longer as I stare at him wondering who he looks like.
He's a perfect blend of Ian Smoldehalder ....
#Fact: You get there by realizing you are already there
I just want to be successful. By my own definition. Not by what my family thinks, friends, scorned lovers ... I want to feel like I have contributed something to the world and if I were to die tomorrow I could feel like my time spent wasn't wasted. That to me is success.
#NerdsUnite: Gypsy Mode Month 8 Update
I had a ton of fun in Vegas, made lots of money, spent a few nights with some old friends who moved from Palm Springs to Vegas, and then ended up staying with Jen Friel & Steph Belsky in an amazing, penthouse condo walking distance to the convention. Not only did it make life that much easier to walk to work, but oh it was sooo luxurious!
#SocialMediaRant: Bills Bills Bills! (a lesson in personal & professional value)
To assist in the visualization/ manifestation of extreme abundance I am imagining myself as this badass male rapper that rocks bottles, models, and some iceeeeee.
#Fact: I don't listen to the words that come out of a woman's mouth
Sure you may need to listen to her words if there is data being transferred but most of the time you speak to a woman, she is speaking from emotion–I think we can all agree on that–so I have been playing around with some ideas and seeing great results. I once read somewhere that, “A woman will tell you everything you need to do to sleep with her if she’s attracted to you, and all you have to do is listen”. I truly believe this, so you’d better hone your listening skills.
