The Goddess of Goats Thrives Alone on Her Mountain

[GoatGal]

Thanks guys!

Today I tried extending myself a bit, sent H an invite for an SPCA fundraiser, something we always did together.

I was there at the shelter and everyone was asking about him, it was beyond weird, trying to pretend everything was normal.

Anyhow, I got two tickets, figured I'd get someone to go with, or go alone.
Then I realized that H might be hurt if I didn't invite him, so I decided to make myself vulnerable and ask if he wanted to go since I had two tickets.
I figured, this would give him an opportunity to "talk" if that's what he wanted,
that we would be engaged in something we always enjoyed with people who like both of us, and the focus is on the dogs, not on us as people.
If he has been feeling put off my my GALing and darkness, this would be opening the door a crack, and giving him a bit of an opening if that's what he's looking for.

If not, well then, that's fine too.

NO PRESSURE.
NO EXPECTATIONS.
It'll be fine, either way.

I was initially thinking there could be three possible answers:
1. No
2. Yes
3. I don't know, need time to think about it.

Then I considered MLC and GUBU and came up with the following additional responses:
4. What do you mean "fundraiser"? That sounds ominous!
5. I never got the message/didn't hear you/no response.
6. Syyy^5siosnvvvv *** #2022 *&^^&*B (Unintelligible, indecipherable goobledygook)
7. I'll let you know by---and then just never get an answer
8. Why are you asking me?
9. Yes! Then doesn't show up.
10. Yes, as long as you realize that I am there as a single guy, in order to meet other women, so don't tell anyone you're my wife!




Ahhh.. Life isn't boring, at least.

We'll see what the response will be. I'll either go alone, or find some nice person who'd really appreciate a sunny afternoon at a winery with dogs. Couldn't be too hard, right?

Got my GAL plans all set for this weekend, and working out my blues band set for the end of the month. Hitting all those barriers and then some!
