Im sitting here this morning in the Hot Tub with my coffee. It has become a new tradition of mine during these beautiful summer morning, and I am thinking about the events of yesterday. Honestly, it could not have been more perfect and I am very content today.
I went on a date! ish- kinda sorta. Maybe that is what you call it. Im not sure. I am so out of practice after 25 years. What is the new saying? Netflix and chill? Anyway. It was a very casual late afternoon/evening affair.
My friends, David and Steve, introduced this cute guy, younger guy (more on that) over the pride weekend. He doesn’t live very far from me in fact. That is cool! He was here with us while David & Steve stayed at my house all weekend. I really enjoyed his company. A lot. He is so easy to talk to and I must say, not so bad on the eyes LOL. But I digress.
When David and Steve were leaving last Sunday, we made a play to go to their home in Eden, UT. on Saturday afternoon and I suggested I could invite Josh to come along. Oh that is his name BTW. I forgot to mention that. Josh. Cute Josh. Super cute Josh.
Anyway – Josh and I have been texting off and on for the week, talking about this and that, the meaning of life, the world coming to an end. you know all of the normal things you discuss while getting to know someone. LMAO. it has been enjoyable. He actually invited me over to watch a movie. I wasn’t able to and we decided that the car ride to and from Eden would give us ample time to get to know each other better.
We were right! and funning thing. The radio in my truck did not want to provide us with sound so we HAD to talk. And we didn’t lack for a ton of topics to discuss. Now again, I don’t know how to date so I don’t know how to ask questions. I just asked what I thought I should ask. ” Do you communicate? How do you handle conflict? what do you look for?”
Wow! writing that down makes it sound like I was interviewing him for a job. “Note to self, calm the fuck down on the interview questions,” GEEZ.
I just had all of these thoughts in my mind that I wanted to get out because I know what I lacked in my relationship with Kerry and I don’t want to make those same mistakes again. Im hoping to learn better what it is I want, and what I need to be for someone else. When/if me and another person come together to form a relationship, I want to be better, improved, like a used Buick rebuilt for your pleasure.
Needless to say the evening was enjoyable for all 4 of us. We sat out on the most beautiful deck overlooking Pineview and watched an amazing thunderstorm role in. Josh and I both were dressed in tank tops and shorts and did not bring a sweat shirt for warmth so we had to cuddle under a blanket. HMMMM PLANNED OR NOT? WHOSE TO SAY LOL.
He actually fell asleep in my lap. I loved it. He must have felt comfortable because he immediately slept and started twitching. I took that as a sign he was good with being relaxed. We sat in the hot tub. We played games. And we left around 9 pm.
On the drive home, my truck had decided to grace us with Music so we had music discussions. It was an end to a great night. we kissed, YUP YOU HEARD IT, and hugged, said goodnight and I went in the house. I think me and the boys (5 dogs) were asleep within 10 minutes of all of us getting into bed
