Friday Night as many of you know..and are waiting with anticipation to hear about... I had a date... what I refer to as a real live date!! I don't really consider my earlier frogs real dates I guess!
(I actually don't have much time to write this and am sans internet at home so I will continue some of this later I am sure)
mmmm where to start? :)
well I met this guy with a group of my girlfriends a couple of weekends ago... he walked in .. we all turned our heads and wiped the drool off our chins! after a short discussion it was decided that a drink shall be ordered and sent over by the server and an invitation to come join us was the order of the night.
He did.
I was sure that he would be smitten by my other girlfriends as they are all quite beautiful and considered myself at pretty bad odds...may be why I am busy kiss'n frogs!! my self esteem and confidence while is in the process of rebuilding is not quite all there yet. I admit I was a few drinks in, mmmm maybe a theme developing here oops! ... and the chatter was free flowing as usual in that state. Apparently I was what had captured his attention and it was quickly obvious that there were some sparks flying between the 2 of us.
Bob's your Uncle and we had exchanged numbers and after a couple of hours of me blabbing me mouth with only a couple of looks from the girls to STOP chattering about the ex and kids... I was pretty sure that this guy was actually going to call me... apparently I asked him that repeatedly that night he has told me since! hehe again... oops not so confident there yeah uh hem!
So this leads us to Friday night
he said he would pick me up between 5 and 6 ... so of course I was ready at 4:45 :) then sat and tried to distract myself from checking the door every 5 min and thoughts that he wasn't going to show up. I was self conscious of the MASSIVE zit that had appeared the day before...what is with that??!! 37 and still get whoppers!!
he picked me up at 5:45, he apparently got a little lost he said but looked very happy to see me and vice versa. We went to a local chic place and he apologized for asking where I would like to go and told me that next time he will have the whole evening planned as he could tell that I am a woman who makes many decisions all day long and when she is taken out she doesn't want to make the decisions... um read that one 100%... actually he nailed quite a few things about me absolutely correct, it was a little strange having a practical stranger know things like that and it left me asking myself.. .is this a typical thing that happens? you will see from my posts that I pysco-analyze a LOT :)
The conversation flowed. He told me all about his fishing adventures, he is from the Bahamas originally and YES he has an accent and is over 6 feet tall...this is the part when you swoon with me :) it was easy to listen to him talk and easy to talk to him. He told me several times that he felt very at ease with me, again NO clue if this is a well used line or whether it matters haha! The way he talked about free diving with sharks and fishing ... I felt like I was there! he is very good at explaining and describing things. I liked that.
I also liked that he just ordered what he wanted to order.. no hassling the waitress for a deal or a freebie.. ok rebound guy did that ALL the time and it was embarrassing to me. I mentioned what the drink specials were and he even said oh I never look at those I just order what I want... swoon ... I LOVE that.
Afterwards he said it was too early to take me home although I told him it couldn't be a late night as I had a special day planned with my oldest daughter early in the morning so we went to a local pub, sat a little closer and talked. He asked to hold my hand.. GULP ... I didn't see the harm in that and man does he have nice hands ... again the conversation was free and easy and then I yawned.. I know what the heck is that???!!! well my crazy schedule is just that.. crazy ... so it's no wonder and so he took me home and said .. any time you would like to go out please let me know, I would like to take you out again.... SWOON ...
