Friday: Dreams come true, and a new phone number
Picked up
margotelyse at her place and went to a burger place for dinner. Eventually anyway. Girl doesn't do the whole giving directions very well. After foods we headed over to
DNA Lounge and met up with
margotelyse's boy who was waiting for us.
The night started with Hubby Hubby Review with the theme of a TV fundraiser for RLS. Great show all around! Boobies are the breast! During the first performance,
margotelyse started to think that she knew one of the dancers personally. Then she turned around and saw it wasn't who she was thinking of.
After picking up a drink, I meet back again with
margotelyse and crew where a girl was being handed off to me and started heavy flirting. Which only means that she's drunk. A smart drunk, but drunk none the less. Started following her around and outside. Lives in Seattle, help formed a company that got bought out by Microsoft and bosted about it. However, she was also flirting with every other guy within reach. While it would be extremely easy for me to have gone back to her hotel that night, I'm really not up for a situation that could be construed as a date rape situation. That and if I'm going to have sex with you, I want you to remember how great it was. So she tells me she's going to the bathroom and fades away for the night.
After the burlesque, The Skillet Lickers set up the stage for their set. A bit of back story here. I discovered Lavay's music back in high school. Since then I dreamed of the day I would be able to see Lavay not because I was on vacation, but as a resident and working for the game industry. So... it was a special night for me. Lots of swing dancing on the floor, but even if I remembered how to swing, I'd still just want to listen to the show.
Then someone tapped me on the shoulder and asked me to dance. It was the girl that
margotelyse confused for a friend of hers. I responded that there were two reasons. One was the backstory I described in the last paragraph, the other was for her own safety as I couldn't remember how to dance. Still we talked a bit, but then another guy asked her to dance. Lesson: Learn swing dancing again.
But after Lavay's set, I found her again and started talking to her again. The conversation was interesting as there were points where we'd look at each other and (at least on my end), the 'should we kiss?' feeling struck me more than once, but didn't act on it. However, I do have a new phone number on my iPhone now. No e-mail sadly, which would make these things easier. I may call tonight, but likely call tomorrow night. Come to think of it, this is the first cold-call that I can remember. Scary...
I definitely plan to attend the Hubba Hubba review nights when I can. However, the next one is the same night I'm leaving for Michigan for the holidays.
