I had a happy evening tonight with a man who I met last year, who'd scheduled a lesson with me. We stood around chatting for a while after; light convo and when he asked about my H I said simply we are getting a D, and we stood around chatting some more about other things. He invited me to grab a bite. I liked him when I met him last year - good humor, energy. I remember thinking of the contrast between him and my depressive H at that party. We had a nice dinner, no drinks, and I was happy realizing what it felt like to not carry the weight of a conversation. To be having dinner with a man who was passionate and aggressively intelligent, almost arrogant, enthusiastic and happy. He reminded me of my best friend from college quite a bit. Professor/scientist. I enjoyed being out so much. We scheduled our next class and I had a nice text waiting when I was home. To be pursued is nice.
I finished a big work project yesterday and am looking forward to an easy day tomorrow. Lunch with a vendor, happy hour with a friend and then casual dinner at home with another friend and a guest she's hosting. It is raining men. Between the porn star, and tonight, and the other invites...do I get GAL points for being open to receiving the signals of the Universe?
I love my home, my cat and my dog. I'm cuddled up with them.
Life will be good without the creep formerly known as my H. Still deciding on whether or not to push for papers or let him handle on his timeline.
