Icarus's blog: "Hurts to watch."

So yesterdays, I called up my ... "friend from work" *rolls eyes* (I'll get to that later) and gave her directions to get here.

In about thirty minutes time I get a call "hey what are you doing tonight?"

Stepping into my jeans in my almost-fencer's build, scrubbing my neck length copper hair I say matter of factly

"absolutely nothing"

"would you like to go see a play with me and (rommate)?"

sure, what's playing what theatre, what will I owe you for the ticket?

Details, etc etc

I get there around 7, at which point I'm informed we're picking up her TRAINWRECK exboyfriend.

DE
lightful.

And apparently roommate's dozey younger brother has the tickets.

We pick this kid up

and first thought out of my head is "prescription drug abuser"

... seriously

his speach is jumbled, his thought processes are incomprehensible,
and he's trying for that whole "I'm so weird I MUST be brilliant"
and he's not pulling it off. He slurs his speach, he actually starts speaking NONSENSE
at one point...

Nice guy though.

My favorite part is when he steps into the bathroom and Roommate says "oh he's...going to do some snuff" and comes out with a RED dripping nose and a wad of cotton to his face.

Now, he hadn't been sniffling the whole night.
He didn't sound like he had a cold.

I was told this kid doesn't do any drugs.
I am not convinced.

Anyway, I managed to get him seated far far away
he talked through the whole movie, me and she made a few comments.
Saw some weird tiny production about the putnam county 25th annual spelling bee.
It exceeded expectations both in content and production, brushed some very serious childhood/family dynamic issues while still remaining ridiculous.

It reminded me of the old community college productions I went to back home
on a good day.

Anyhow, talked about the play, confirmed for tomorrow
drove home, had a snack
went to bed.

About the "friend from work" thing... well, there's exboyfriend drama
surprise.

And I'm not getting involved, I'm not being a cock about it.
I'm just being this nice guy that's quite interested in her.
When she introduced me to her ex
"and this is (name removed for your protection) my friend from work"

According to the girls, and what I could kinda pick up, he had his suspicions, he was more irratic than usual and I think my presence had put him off balance. Roommate had suspicions that he was on something.
I had no intention of making him uncomfortable, I wasn't mugging him or clowning him like I might have been in another situation with another girl. If she WAS my girlfriend, and I knew his intentions were less than virtuous, I would've gave him the evil eye.
I kinda took a page from my brother's playbook and played it more laid back than I normally would have.

My mojo wasn't helped by the fact that about 2 blocks from her house, and halfway through the play
I felt like I was going to throw up at any moment.

I'm feeling pretty good considering I'm expecting her at my house in ... 3 hours.

Pregame wank, pregame boom.
Salami's cut, cheese is cut (lolz), caviar's chilling, foil on the wine is pierced,
I gotta let the wine breathe, and the port salut come to room temp.

Clover's... doing alright.

I'd love to know what goes through a girl's mind during these proceedings.

Laidback but laidout afternoon with a handsome man and his giant puppy.

What do girls do to get ready for a date, and do they even get remotely sexually frustrated like we do.

I mean, even when you DON'T have any intentions, guys still get pent up. Hence the pregame wank becoming a requirement.

What do girls do. Put on makeup, smirk, and think to themselves
"that poor bastard won't know what hit him"
as cool as any professional femmedom.

Jarlsberg. (semi sharp swiss)
Emem. (semi soft sharp)
Mustard seed salami.
Port salut (described to be stanky, smooth as liquid silk, and the flavor is creamy and buttery)
caviar
awesome granola
crackers
old bagette
Greneche red from 2006, said to be a degree darker and huskier than the wine I had last week.

I could really go for some cream soda.

Just need the vids and the girl.

... I should probably make my vinegrette.
Hope my dog likes her.

Hope she snuggles with me.
I really like her.
... *shuffles feet*.
