Gotta Love Those Yummy, 20-something Guys!!
I’ve just had two awesome days of editing and plan to do more of the same today. I haven’t had the chance to work on my current novella, The Harvest Moon, since before I left town for the wedding last Saturday morning. So it was wonderful to get back to my usual writing routine on Wednesday. Best of all, I let my good friend Cheryl have a sneak peek at the first chapter of this novella. I warned her it is scorching hot, and she might need to read it with a cold drink handy. She got back to me yesterday and said forget the cold drink…..my readers will need a fire extinguisher when they read this one!!! She swore there was smoke coming off the pages when she was reading them (LOL). Then she proclaimed it very, very HOT…almost Emma Holly-ish. Whoa! Does she know how to make my day or what?!! *big smile*
Speaking of hot, I proofed the printer’s proof of my latest paperback novel, Call of the Witches, on Monday. It has gone to press and should be appearing on Amazon and in bookstores any day now. Yeah, you’ll definitely need a cold drink handy when you read this one. Seriously. In Call of the Witches you’ll meet Blaine, Donnie’s totally yummy cousin, and he is smokin’ HOT!! Okay, you’ve been warned. *naughty grin*
There was something planetary going on yesterday. Did you notice it? I always say I feel like I’m 23 inside, and because I have a lot of energy I tend to act that way, too. So it’s no surprise many of my girlfriends are 20-something. Well, yesterday was my day to attract 20-something men. No kidding. Yeah, I’m still shaking my head over that one.
In the morning I ran into a yummy, 20-something guy I know. We’re friends, but yesterday (for the first time) he started flirting with me. Huh? He told me he couldn’t believe I’m as old as I am (well, me neither!….there must be some mistake, right? *grin*). He said I don’t look like it, and I certainly don’t act like it. Interesting. So I told him the truth. I said it’s probably because I’m a vegetarian and a Witch and totally oversexed. Yeah, I said that. In fact he really seemed to like that part. It made him giggle just like it does the Uber when I say things like that to him.
Speaking of the Uber, we went out to dinner last night, and the server was one we’ve never had before. Yup, you guessed it. Another yummy, 20-something guy. He walks up to the table and just stares at me, speechless. Come to think of it, that happened to me in Charleston a few times, too. But I digress….
Anyway, he finally finds his tongue and takes our order. Not only does he get my order perfect (which they rarely do in that restaurant), but he starts bringing me all kinds of extras, pampering me, talking only to me and ignoring the Uber. As you can imagine the Uberis not happy. He keeps saying, "What is wrong with this guy?!" He thinks the server is incompetent, until he brings our receipt after we pay the bill. Then he hangs around and won’t leave. He wishes us a safe trip home and a good night and all kinds of stuff, just staring at me and ignoring the Uber.
Finally, he leaves, and the Uber says, "That guy was flirting with you." I bat my eyelashes at him and smile sweetly, saying, "Imagine that?" The Uber starts making those cranky Alpha growling noises he’s famous for, and continues to growl all the way home. Hey, what can I say? I’ve never been one to turn down a miraculous blessing. If the Goddess wants to fill one of my days with flirtatious, yummy, 20-something guys I’m not going to turn that down. I mean, I’m not stupid, ya know?! *wicked grin*

*Sighs* Sadly the men of NZ aren’t quite so forward. (That being said, some of them can actually blush over the most innocent comments)
Or maybe I’m just chilling in all the wrong places?

Ha! Could be. Although my lusty energy does tend to bring out the sexual boldness in people (gee, what a surprise! *wicked grin*).
These two guys were definitely Betas. You can find them working in retail stores and in restaurants. If you’re looking for Alphas you can find them working out at a gym. I think the worst place to troll for men is a bar.
Where have you been chilling???

LoL, my life revolves around study, so I pretty much spend all of my time either at home or in a library of some sort. Or a bookstore. Guy Who Blushes is the studious type too, which might explain the blushing, but it really was an innocent conversation he was listening in on between me and my friend Caroline. It was about someone I found really hot in one of my classes. Caroline bought up Guy Who Blushes as a possible candidate of who I kept checking out in a class, and he went all…blushy. Can we say “Aww…”
Oh my. Gyms, huh? I’ve never been in one and I’d feel way too self-conscious in there (and also, I don’t think I could even open the anti-smoke doors to get into said gym, because those doors are massive heavy). Given how buff the guys who play rugby are though, I’m really not surprised that the Alphas can be found in this mysterious place known as the gym. Hold on…
There’s nothing like watching a bunch of really buff guys pounding the living lights out of each other…

Yeah, but was “Guy Who Blushes” the one you thought was hot in your class? Inquiring minds want to know. LOL
Okay, here’s the plan. Go to a gym in a skimpy, tight workout outfit (drench yourself in pheromones first) and get on one of those walking machines. Some actually have a place for you to set a book, because most people read while they are on them. All you’ll have to worry about then is finding someone to open the heavy door to the gym for you (I can totally relate to that…I am a Southern Belle after all…heavy doors are not my thing) and show you how to turn on the walking machine. I suggest you ask a buff Alpha guy for help with these two things. Get my drift? *naughty grin*
Then report back to me and tell me what happened.

Well before I started talking to him this year (He’s been in another of my classes too), I couldn’t stop looking at him. Not because I found him wildly attractive, but because he’s like a replica for Chandler off Friends. Seriously. But since he’s good looking, extremely smart and ridiculously sweet…
I don’t find him hot in a lustful way. Of course. *Eye roll*
LoL. Although I have no problems running on the main road for all commuters to see, I can’t bring myself to go to a nicely air conditioned gym. It’s weird…

Okay, two things:
1.) Wear lots of pheromone perfume around “Guy Who Blushes.” He sounds totally yummy and worth jumping in a second. Dear Goddess, good thing I don’t know him…I’d jump him!!
2.) Get thee to a gym!!!! No kidding. Again, wear lots of pheromone perfume and check out all the yummy, sweaty Alphas. Offer to dry them off after a shower. YOWZA! I’ll bet you’ll overcome your phobia of nicely air-conditioned gyms in no time. *naughty grin*

LoL. I don’t see Guy Who Blushes around anymore (Either because we’re not on the same campus or because, um, I literally can’t see him), and he may be the sweetest thing, but although I can definitely see his appeal jumping him would just be…wrong.
And can I just say: Sweat = Not deeply appealing. (Although that kinda depends on why you’re sweating…)
