Oh it Be!

I went for my weekly adjustment and OVDC was like you have no problem finding someone. Instinctively I would like to say I have problems, but I have to admit to most people I know I do pretty well.

I didn't call the Lawyer tonight since I was exhausted. I've been waking early and I don't like that when it happens for a few days. This week it has been about 6:20 every morning. The strange thing is that I don't wake anxious or have anything on my mind. So I'm not quite sure what is driving it. Anyway after a a busy day in the office mixed with me running errands it was a long day. I got home, changed to something comfortable and plopped on my bed for a while.

I ended up continuing my texts with Planner and then figured I would just call her since after 3 texts I would rather talk. So like last night it was a fun conversation with lots of laughter. It was nice to hear that she has a part time job on the weekends. I'm not the only one struggling. Since she was busy tomorrow night I'm going to drive over to her house Sunday night for us to do something. Not quite sure yet, but it will nice to see her.

They weird thing for me is the Lawyer now. You know me I'm the monogamous dater so to have someone I said I would call at some point make me uncomfortable. I guess I have to remember I'm not doing anything wrong.

The Business of Dating

When I date I wonder how firm to be with things. Take the Planner. She's attractive, running her own business, and really enjoyed our time together. However I think she has a lot of fears, has never been married, and I feel like I have a lot to offer her, but I'm not quite sure what's there for me. We texted this morning and she said she could learn a lot from me. I guess that's why they have the 3 date rule to see where you stand.

However I find myself at a crossroads of what I would do business wise and personal wise. Putting time, energy, and money into an endeavor that I enjoy, but get nothing else out of on the business side I would dump it. Hasta la vista baby! On the personal side where do I draw the line. Fun and enjoyment are great, but I can have that with many people. The longer I'm with a person the more tied I will get to them. While I'm neither desperate to find a girl friend or get married their is a practical part of me that hates to waste. However as I learn to enjoy life more is this not part of it. Enjoy it for as long as it last. Like driving a car to see how far it goes before it konks out with no more gas.

People as me all the time how I do all the events that I do. My response is how do you not? I've lived a good chunk of my life not living it to the fullest. So now I'm making up for it. In this situation I still have the Lawyer to add to the mix. As usual I would like everything cut and dry. It's easier that way emotionally and when it comes to that aspect of myself I do like the easier, gentle path. So I'll grab my machete and set out in to the explore the unknown jungle of relationships.

Jazz, Art, & the Planner

Tonight was our Wine & Jazz event at the art museum. It was fun, but it is a different type of event. We sit and drink then scatter around the museum. It was all familiar faces tonight especially the Planner (on the right) who I wanted to talk to. I had met her at Happy Hour and we got to talk a little, but mostly I was able to help her business wise. So I wanted to follow up tonight.

Anyway after waiting the required amount of time for stragglers to come I headed out into the museum. Since my face is what everyone recognizes I have to be seen. Bizarre I know. No one wanted to accompany me.

I'm happy to be alone so I enjoyed the Rembrandt etchings. The Planner stopped by to chat for a few moments then was gone. I wandered for a while and later on she popped up on me again. So I talked with her and we chatted as we wandered the rest of the museum learning about each other and the art. At one point she asked about adjusting her shoulder and who am I to say no to putting my arms around a beautiful woman. I have to say she reacted to it quite nicely.

So after we had perused the whole place we sat down to await everyone else. As our small talk died down I asked if she wanted to grab dinner one night. She was like how about tonight. So I ended up with a date tonight. As my friends know once I get my mind made up on something it doesn't take to long for me to make it happen.

The Planner wanted to experience the beach so I choose a place close to the water. We grabbed some light dinner and had fun talking. She was a little restrained until I said I would grab the bill this time. She repeated my words with a smile and then was a lot more open after that.

We headed down to the beach enjoying the sand and getting our feet wet. I did get the pull back when I leaned in for a kiss. She said she was shy so we ended up sitting on the beach for a while talking. When it got late I walked her back to her car and we fist bumped goodnight.

I tell you its interesting to be told I'm bubbly. I have no idea if this will get off the ground. She is attractive and fun to be with. However I don't know what she has to offer. So where ever this goes I'm okay with.

Now I still have to call the Lawyer tomorrow to set something up hopefully before laser tag. Oye! Feast or famine.
