Cool! I hope you enjoy it. I've got a busy run here with a concert in the park last night, a lounge tonight, wedding on Saturday (playing for it not attending) and playing a birthday party Sunday afternoon. That after having last weekend off.

I'm actually kinda glad as it will force a slow down with wild girl, although she's got plans much of the weekend as well. Speaking of, guess who's parents showed up at the concert in the park last night? Now, they may have been planning on going anyhow but this is our second year in a row doing this place and I don't recall them being there last year. Her mom must have given me a half dozen hugs. During intermission I of course went out and talked with them and said something like it was nice to see them and mom says without missing a beat "We came to see you," yeah and grill me for info, no doubt. LOL They of course did bring up the fact that I've seen their daughter several times since I last saw them. Clearly this is way better than them being unsure and warning Wild Girl "You better watch out, we see him with a different girl at every gig" or saying they don't like me LOL.

Our busy schedules will also help to keep us off the phone. It is surprising how fast time flies. Three nights in a row now. Last night I'm like, I really need to get to bed earlier tonight and all of a sudden it's two hours later.

The talk about Wild Girl dating someone new at her work has continued as well I guess. She's told me several times already how I'm outside her normal box - including the age difference, which is obviously still bothering her. I almost wonder if that's keeping her from being more in (and smothering and pressure-inducing) than she is. I'm still comfortable but she admitted she talked about this with one of her better friends - who told her just to relax and go with it along with a story of friends 59 and 43. Her parents thought I was 45. Evidently having to add 10 to that is not bothering them.

This will soon start to test me. I'm still very comfortable and enjoying everything. I hope that dynamic doesn't change for a while as I'm not ready to be done yet. That said, I'm not ready to go all in yet either - nor should I be. I am learning things or confirming things though and I really do enjoy that. I've reported on how much I make her laugh has been a big point of why she is so interested. Add to that the fact that I ask about her girls and her day and her life, plus talk on the phone with her for hours. Evidently she has NEVER had that. I brought up the 5LL and she continues to be impressed by the fact that someone would care enough to know what makes her feel appreciated. Perhaps best, for me, is this really is me. I'm not doing these things to impress her - I'm just doing what I do and being who I am. Really makes me wonder what kind of guys has she been dating???? Or is it possible I really am that much of a catch? Might be a little of both I guess.

We've got tentative plans to do something next weekend. I'm pretty sure that will happen. Not sure about 4th of July. I'm in a parade and at a festival not too far away from her - 25 minutes maybe? I would not be surprised if we end up meeting up at some point but not plans right now.

Anyhow, I'm looking forward to a fun weekend. Just lots of driving as the gigs are all over. I'll do at least 8 hours of windshield time this weekend. No date report to make on Monday but I'll likely have something to say. smile
