Blossoming Love thru Friendship: Close Encounters8

[Tomato]

Just getting another one going. I hope there have been a lot of positives going on around here for everyone.

After I had convinced myself that I surely would not hear from my darling tonight, I received the surprising phone call. Her phone calls are so interesting and this one certainly fell into that category. I love talking to her and I doubt she would have called me if she didn't feel likewise.

More in a few hours after I land. What a lovely night. Take the time out to enjoy it. Much love to you all.

Oh SMW, thanks for the Brad Paisley/ Andy Griffith youtube clip. I enjoyed it.

Tomato--

Glad you enjoyed it! my D16 saw it for the first time last night when I was posting it to you. She thought it was so sweet.

Fly safe!

Yeah, you may have persuaded me to give a listen to some more Paisley stuff. I have never gotten into country too much. Maybe time for another 180. Naaaaaaahhhh, I will always be a Rocker through and through. Can't live without my Rush. I plan on seeing them for about the 20th time this Thursday in Hershey, PA.

I do think I will watch the video again though since I was partly distracted when I watched it this AM. I guess there is room for both. Thanks again and have a great night. The flying is done for the night and it was a pretty sky up there tonight.

I like a lot of different things. I love Christian Rock, 80s hair bands, and a lot of alternative stuff. But, I also like dance music and country, too. There are some really good songs out there. Just got to be open minded about it!

I havent read back to far, and lost base with your stich. So couple of questions--Did the big D happen? know you got mail about not knowing it happened. Who is darling (D or W)? How is it going with you and W (or ex)?

[Tomato]

I try to give a listen to a variety of stuff, all based upon the mood I am in. I always gravitate back to the Canadian power trio though. They are phenomenal in concert. Obviously I feel that way ...having seen them 20 times. They play with such passion and energy which defies there 59-60 yr old selves. I find it difficult to rock as hard as they do on stage. I am only now recovering from the show I went to on the 4th. My voice is just coming back just in time for the show next week.

Hey jandn, thx for 'hopping' over to the new thread. Whenever I speak of my darling I am referring to my 'ex'. That took place as of June 23 if memory serves me correct. And things are going fairly well between her & I. Take a quick glance back at the tail-end of the previous thread and you will see the post-D activities. Sunday was a nice day for me & her. Wink wink ..nudge nudge.

Getting back to the nights earlier phone call w/ my darling. As I suspected, she has been periodically perusing my checking acct. For the last couple of months I was aware that even though she had cleared her name off of the sig card from the joint acct, for some unknown reason the bank failed to cancel out her online access to the acct. So tonight in a lighthearted way she confessed to having been snooping into the acct transactions. I doesn't really bother me that much and I kind of figured she would do it. She broke the ice on that subject by mentioning to me that she didn't think that it would be such a "stretch" for me to help her out with a loan considering my financial status in contrast to hers. And then she proceeded to spill her guts about being unable to resist the temptation to look in my acct.

So we talked about sex and $ pretty much. She initiated the convo on the sex that we just enjoyed on Sunday. She was interested in knowing how much I enjoyed it. We did the "outdoorsy" thing on Sun. since at present neither her nor I have a place of our own. So it was different and fun. Enough about that.

Yeah everything sounds great man compared to that day you wrote about getting the papers and it was a done deal. Now after reading some of that, forgot what I was going to say.

Just looked back and remember, the whole Christianity talk. Mine has wondered the same, why I have turned that way and was really never interested in it. Told her something lead me there and I just dont have any answers for you other than its the only way I am going to make it through all of this.
