Well it was a week ago CG e-mailed me and we had our nice drink out. We had a very nice e-mail exchange and then we went out for dinner on Thursday. Sushi and sashimi. More talking. There is such a big difference between him now and last summer. I can tell he is over the last girlfriend. We all remember that shell-shocked feeling of being fresh out of a break up. That is where he was last summer. He even said, I had no business being on Match. Which I appreciated and agreed with. Again,lots of fun and a very lovely time. He has custody of his kids every other week, so we have plans to get together next week, when he is "off". I have to say I find his devotion to the kids very appealing!
Then, I had agreed to have a drink w/the neighbor guy. We had planned on meeting on Friday afternoon, I thought we could meet at a local bar, but he called me and said he wanted to pick me up in one of his cars and then we could go to a bar out in the country. He pulled up in an Aston Martin 3000 convertable! (Only his was British Racing Green!) While I don't like to tinker with engines much, I do really love riding in fast cars! LOL I had so much fun! I was surprised at how well we got along. He is a bit older than me, Viet Nam vet, and really seems to be the kind of guy who lives a bit on the edge. (Pilot, motorcycles, fast cars...) He would have been happy to stretch the drinks well into the evening, but I had a date with my GF at 6:00 to walk the dogs! LOL! He also offered to set up another date...next time Napa! I hemmed and hawed...I've heard that when you start dating you should casually date a lot and then narrow it down. Tricky!
The rest of the weekend was loads of fun as well. I saw a good friend and her youngest son, I have known them about 20 years and he is thinking about Ph.D at my local university. We haven't seen each other in a few years.
Sunday morning I visited an agility trial in my area. My friend who runs corgis was there. She took some nice pictures of Argo.
Then in the evening I went to another friend's house for dinner. One of the guests was a woman who made a film about Iran and we watched. Fascinating!
So another fun and busy week under my belt.
