Hi. I'm trying to think of another description to put here. Any ideas? I'll try again at 420.

OK, I just woke up...


...and for a moment, I was sort of cloudy headed (as I usually am first thing in the morning and halfway through the day), and started to climb out of my bed. As I did, I noticed my dress lying on the foot of my bed and I remembered....LAST NIGHT I HAD A WONDERFUL TIME!!!!!

First of all, when John and I went out the other two times, we went out in his truck. It was a nice truck, I was impressed by how big it was and how nice it was. I fully expected him to pick me up in that truck. But the youngin’ had another car he hadn’t told me about.

There was a knock on my door at about 8 so I looked out the window and saw a pretty powder blue beemer in my driveway. I’m in the wrong business, I should have paid more attention in math class. John is a surveyor dude and he had to take a lot of math. Anyway, I decided to open the door and let him in. That wasn’t a tough decision, you have a gorgeous guy on your porch and a BMW in your driveway, you best open the door.

I let him put the corsage on my shoulder, yes, he did remember the orchid conversation. I believe he was taking notes because everything he did last night was perfect. Well, I wouldn’t have ordered the rabbit, but it was good. He told me how nice I looked and I held myself back from drooling all over his pretty self and just said, “Well, I better look nice, look at you! I would have tried harder if I had known that you cleaned up so well.”

He said we had to hurry to make the dinner reservations. We went to a place I had never heard of, it was called the Canoe and it had a lovely view of the Chattahoochee River. I let John order for us and he ordered rabbit. Next time, we are going to discuss this beforehand. The rabbit was good, but I prefer the main 3 animals, pigs, cows and chickens. I had never eaten a bunny before. And so close to Easter yet, it just felt wrong. But, it tasted pretty good.

You know, there was a time when Vex and I would go out and he would sit there looking at me with what I thought was love in his eyes and tell me how beautiful I was. He stopped that a long, long time ago. But that’s O.K., John did it last night and it felt good to hear those words again. Not because of my ego, just my self esteem. When he said it the first time, I almost cried because it made me feel so good but I’ll be damned if I was going to mess up my mascara before we got to dessert. He chose everything besides the rabbit perfectly. I guess Grand Marnier goes well after rabbit. I would have thought is went better with duck, but what do I know.

We decided to pass on dessert so we wouldn’t be too stuffed when we got to the dance place. I have never been to the dance place either. As a matter of fact, I had never even heard of it. It was called the Tongue and Groove and I was a little nervous about that, especially after my trip to The Alley Cat. Anyway, there was nothing to worry about, this was a VERY nice place. It’s a good thing he insisted on the new shoes, I doubt I would have gotten in if I had worn my black flats. That would have been embarrassing.

I was kind of nervous about dancing in public. I’m used to my kitchen, I know all the intricacies of that floor. But, John was right, after a couple of Harvey Wallbangers, every floor is pretty much the same. We sat there sipping our drinks and trying to make small talk but it wasn’t easy with the music so at one point, when he couldn’t hear what I was saying, I just put down my drink, took his away from him and pulled him onto the dance floor. It was a slow dance and I wanted to “Rock Him Gently” so I started out with something I knew he felt comfortable with. So, I have made the first dance move at this point.

After that dance, we went back and ordered a couple of Buttery Nipples and drank those. He suggested Yager shots and like an idiot, I said, “Good call!”

After we did two shots (one Yager, one Buttery Nipple) and two Harvey Wallbangers each, a fast song came on. I did it again. I grabbed his arm and pulled him out on the dance floor. At this point I believe the Yager had reached it peak serum level because I wanted to party like it’s 1999. (I know it’s a little late for that, but I was with Vex and missed it.) He did just fine. He’s no Michael Jackson (thank the Lord) but he is your average white guy dancer. As we were leaving the dance floor and the last sip of Harvey Wallbanger was hitting my brain, I pulled him back because there was another slow dance on. And I had a plan. I figured he was good and loosened up now so I waited for just the right moment and I tried to kiss him. But I hadn’t taken his height into consideration. I couldn’t stop now, it was obvious what I was up to and to abort at this point would be embarrassing so I stood on my tippy toes and gave him one very nice kiss. Not too long, just long enough to show him that I knew what I was doing. So, I have made the first kiss move now as well.

I think at about that time, the Yager hit him. He wanted to dance now. We stayed on the dance floor for the next half hour at least. During one slow song, we were on the edge of the dance floor so he maneuvered us into the middle of it and picked me up and kissed me. That was the high point of the evening. As I hung there I thought to myself, “It isn’t going to get any better than this tonight.” When he put me down, I yelled into his ear (had to yell), “Do it again.” And he did.

After the dance marathon thing, we left to go get dessert. We went to the Marietta Diner, I love that place! We chatted for two hours and I couldn’t tell you what we said. I think I told half of my stories and he must have put a dent in his list as well. I mentioned the blog and he asked what I would say about him. I told him that I would tell him exactly what I said and that he could go to the site if he wanted to but that I would prefer he didn’t. He retained the right to change his mind but said that for now, he would leave it alone. We split a piece of cake that had to be made for at least two people but could easily have fed four people who had just eaten dinner. We hadn’t eaten for hours at that point so we finished the cake ourselves. Throughout the evening, we both had a glass of water to sip on and we had one here, too. The discussion changed to how we were going to prevent a hangover. The water was good, but we also needed some aspirin, coffee and vitamin C. We ordered some coffee and drank it fast for the caffeine value. There are 5 things that you should eat/drink to hold off a hangover, sugar, caffeine, water, sugar and aspirin. I had Excedrin so that took care of aspirin and caffeine, coffee just to help with the caffeine, cake for the sugar, water all night long plus a bolus of some now, all that was left was the vitamin C. We both ordered large O.J.’s and downed them. I was so stuffed, I just wanted to lie down. It was time to go home. As we were driving to my house, I decided that I would be making no more moves on this guy, I have made my feelings known already and to paraphrase Costanza, “The ball is in his court.” As we turned onto my street, he told me what a nice time he had and that I will have to choose our next date. I thought to myself, “This one will be hard to top so I will have to go in an entirely new direction with the date I come up with." Something like bungee jumping came to mind.

Anyway, as he pulled into my driveway, I got all nervous. I hadn’t felt like that in years. It was a good feeling, I liked it. I didn’t have any time to wonder, he reached over and kissed me before he turned off the engine. It was sweet. He walked me to the door, kissed me again and said he would call me in a couple of days. I hope he does.

If Vex hadn’t left, I would have spent the evening on the blue chair, watching some silly karate movie or some such crap. So, I am starting to reap some of the benefits from the price I paid for the last 3 years. This is too cool.

...just an old fashion guy here from Montana.take care girl, life has its moments.....got to have fun while you can

Funny, when I met Vex, he said he was just an old cowboy from Montana. Oh well, I can’t impugn an entire state because of one freak. Nice to meet you, Ray.

Oh... I've been told that you can disconnect the negative (black) battery cable in some cars for twenty minutes and the light will go away. If it is a real problem, though, it will turn back on in a short amount of time. Might be worth a try, though.

Yeah, I am willing to try anything at this point, how stupid. It is supposed to be emissions, if it doesn't choke out noxious fumes, what the hell do they care?

Meg, I'm exiting a 4 yr LTR because my GF was unfaithful. You're very brave and are probably growing in ways you never imagined. Moving on is much harder than one would think and I wanted to encourage you to continue taking one effortful step after another.

Yeah, I always say, one day at a time, sometimes you can only go by steps. It is harder than one would think, I guess. I knew how hard it would be since he had put me through it a few times before. Once I took control and said that I wouldn’t be taking him back this time, I haven’t looked back since...much. Good luck to you and I am sure you know that, in the long run, you did the right thing. If I have learned one TRUE thing from this it is: Once a cheater, ALWAYS a cheater. Period.

Resetting your OBD-II light is pretty simple... if you have the tools. Too bad you're not in Vegas. I'd just meet you somewhere and take care of it real quick

This is the kind of luck I have. A perfectly good man who could fix my car in a perfectly fun place like Vegas, oh well.

I'd enjoy sitting in a hot tub with you... sitting across, then coming
in close to you, parting your legs, raising your hips and gliding my
tongue inside your sweet lips :)


Well, looky there, a man who is apparently hornier than I was that day I was having that little personal problem. Sir, you didn’t say anything about dinner...DUH.

Well, I have to go nurse the little hangover that I do have. I think a nap will do it. It is a lovely day and I want to take the dog out to the park so I best get feeling better now.

See ya.

Meg

I am SO happy that you had a nice time! You deserve it! I find the best way to clear up a hangover is this: When you first wake up, take 2 aspirin and down a huge glass of water, then go back to sleep for an hour. I always wake back up feeling 100% better. :)

The combination can be toxic to the liver.

Paracetamol might be a better bet?

You're right, Meg, you shouldn't be drinking as much as guys that are twice your weight.
