Back from my Weekend

Dear Diary,

GoodMorning

Well back to the responsible working adult world. 🙂

I left on Friday eve and went to B’s. I arrived about 8:30pm. I really wanted to go out and do something, but what? I just dont really have people to “hang out” with.

I went to the gym after work friday. There is this guy who talked to me about a month ago, asked me if I went to the college, said he saw a girl who looked like me, it wasnt me, I wasnt attending then, but we just chit chatted and he introduced himself and I told him my name. Hes an older guy, not sure if he is Philipino or what, but his english isnt the easiest to understand.

Ive seen him twice since and we say Hello, how are you, type stuff.

So friday he came up to me on the treadmill and said “You are here late today?” we chit chatted briefly, I couldnt understand part of what he was saying so Im just smiling and nodding. He then went off to finish his workout.

After cardio I went to work my arms, and he was right next to where I was. He made small talk again. So next thing I know he says “Where are you going after this?” I wasnt sure what he meant? Meaning outside the gym? Or what was I going to do with the weights, what machine next? So I asked. He said “After” I said “Oh Im going out of town” he stood there, and I just tried to make convo and said “What are you plans?” And he asked ” You want to go have dinner?” I was sorta dumbfounded, all that came out of my mouth was “I already ate before I came” which I did and I was full, boss treated all of us to late lunch and desserts! But I just told the guy I was going out of town. So I had to tell him again “Im going out of town after this” Hes all “ohhhhh” then somehow we touched on the fact that I have kids, he asked if I was married, and then said hes never been married nor does he have kids, that he is SINGLE AND LOOKING.

It felt a little awkward after that. I was trying to avoid him the rest of the gym. He was looking at me.

I left, and in a way felt very flattered, it feels nice to be hit on, yet at the same time, I try to be outgoing and friendly and make convo with people, and its like they think Im interested or something?

When I got to B’s place he was watching Scooby Doo with the little girl. I was all in a spunky mood, I was dressed nice, skirt and my black boots, and had other things on my mind. We sat and had chips and dip and I wasnt really into the movie, Id already seen it with my kids and not really how I wanted to spend my friday eve. So I got up and went and got my stuff out of the Jeep and just kept busy the last half, B ended up getting the hint and came to his room.

We had a NICE evening. ::Wink wink:: Hes all “Whats gotten into you?” I just told him I was feeling all spunky, and plus I rarely see him after the gym, I just feel really good when I get out.

We were asleep by 11pm. The following day I wanted to go out, B wanted to work on his car, and run around some shopping errands. I didnt want to spend my day like that, and besides my house needed some cleaning also, I really wanted to go to Santa Barbara and go skating, so I figured Id go sunday, Sat just go home and get some stuff done at the house, and check on my dog.

Well we stayed in bed, had more of a NICE AM. and then got up to get lunch. I was gonna head out, but then offered to take B to a few stores for stuff he needed. I then asked him “Do you want to come home with me? I have stuff to do, and I know you do also, so its cool if you dont, or you can come down and stay the nite at my place and Ill bring ya back Sun AM. He said ok, 🙂

So we got the stuff he needed done first, then headed to my place. He helped me move a big heavy metal shelf out of my office to the garage, and he tinkered on the computer and layed on the couch watching tv, I cleaned up the office, one of the bathrooms, did some laundry. We went to see the dog. Hes doing SOOO GOOD! He looks great and hes so happy and bouncy, Im so happy. 🙂

I treated B to lunch Sat and took him to Mexican food friday night. We then went and rented some DVDs. We came back, and snuggled up on the couch, with a drink and a movie, I was so sleepy again, so we were in bed by 10:30pm.

I got up around 9am Sunday, B stayed in bed a little longer, We ate some breakfast, watched a little tv snuggled on the couch then headed out. I dropped him off then headed off to go skating, by myself. 🙂 It was overcast on the coast drive, but no rain, so I wanted to go still. I think I just enjoy torturing myself, going there makes me long to live there. I drive down the streets and just wish I had one of those little beach houses.

I skated a lot, and I wore myself out! I was so tired I just wanted to lay down when I was done! I stopped at Santa Claus Lane on the way there and had Chili Cheese nachos and some dessert, mmmmm.

So I headed home, stopped at an antique shop that was wayyy outta my price range.

Got back to B’s place just before dark, he wasnt back yet so I layed down some and played on the computer.

He knew I was coming back and staying the nite and we were gonna go out for dinner.

He got home an hour later, and showered and got ready, we went to our fave lil restaraunt, I had Orange Cashew Chicken, mmmmm I tried something new on the menu finally. B made me leave my purse at his house, hes never done that and said I didnt need it. He went all out, we had drinks, appetizer, dinner and dessert! oooooh it was all so good, and I have left overs for lunch today! I love this drink they have called a “Pear Blossom” they have there own Brewery in the place and make their own drinks and all.

We came back to B’s, crawled in bed, and we were out by 9pm! haha. Although the family was noisy and woke me up around midnite as they were getting all the kiddies and themselves down for bed. They stay up late.

Oh I forgot to write. Friday nite/Sat Am, there was an earthquake here. I was awake, I had just gotten up to go the bathroom, B was awake also, we were just cuddled up and then I felt it, whenever I feel an earthquake it always sounds like a loud truck rumbling down the road, so I always tense up and wait for it to pass, when it doesnt pass I know its an earthquake. I said to B “Earthquake” and hes all “Yeah” and we just sat there and it was over. He was joking about it, how they are just the norm, they dont really phase him. I guess I get a bit more scared then he does. But Ive been thru these all my life here in Cali and never seen any scare ones myself. Just read today about the bad one in China. Eeks!

So I left B’s early this AM, and here I am, and hes at work too.

He asked me to go see a concert with him end of March, it fell on a weekend I have my kids and I cant manage a Vegas trip then. I want to 🙁 but my kids will be gone a whole week with their Dad, and then I dont think its cool to take off when theyd return and be with a sitter for a few days.

So B wrote me this AM and said his old gym buddy is gonna go. I admit I feel kinda blah. I know its my own issue. I just wish I could go. Its like B doesnt ever plan or ask to do much, and he did and I couldnt make it. And Im gonna have 2 weeks FREE in March. I hope he and I can have some kinda getaway. But I know it will be good for him, gambling, music, drinking, with a guy buddy.

I guess part of me wishes I just had a girlfriend to take off with for a weekend like that. I just know guys who are interested in me, and I dont need that pressure for a fun weekend.

Anyways, things are good. 🙂
