I still can't believe my mom set me up on a date with Zoe!
Speak of the devil.. ..my mom is calling.
"Hey Mom, do me a favour. Don't ever fix me up again!" With that I end the phone call and get ready for work.
My mother can get really annoying. Every other week she comes up with someone new for me to date.
Sometimes in the past I was not even aware that the person I just met had been put in place by my mom. I should have known something was wrong when my childhood sweetheart Ben had been calling me out of the blue and asked me to send his regards to my mother. - And that was only a few months after I reaffirmed that my relationship with Maya was not just a phase.. - It had been an attempt of my mom to 'spark my interest in men again' as she put it. After the phone call from Ben I called my mom to tell her that my future plans do not include waking up next to a flat and hairy breast. Two weeks later I mysteriously got to know a male model who had not even peach fuzz on his chin.. We spent a nice evening together. Another two weeks later I sent my mom a picture of my 'picture perfect future husband' and his boyfriend. After that I did not get to know any men at all and I was relieved because I thought my mom had given up on her hobby as a match maker.
And then my mother came up with Zoe..
Thank God I have great friends who don't get tired listening to my whining.
And I'm really lucky to call the scariest and bossiest employee in our agency one of my best friends. She's the company's Trojan horse – beautiful and graceful on the outside but can be dangerously intimidating if you pull the wrong stings and often reveals herself as a secret weapon. That's also the reason why people call her Troian behind her back. But Spencer doesn't mind. Sometimes I'm not sure whether she started that nickname herself since she seems to be kinda proud of her martial nickname. Spencer is also the one who got me that job at Kingston Advertising and gives me a push in the right direction whenever I need it.
Unfortunately, that doesn't help me to stay on the right path.. Not only is my love life D.O.A. but I am also stuck at my current job position.
The fact that I have a crush on the hottest chick in my company doesn't help as well and is quite depressing. Even more so since she is too busy to sleep around to notice me as more than a dinner date alibi in her schedule to cover up for her office affairs.
Why can't I fall for the good girls instead of pining for the bad babes?

[Have a guess who's gonna be the bad babe ^^]
