(no subject)
so, i don't think i've mentioned this... a couple weeks after the passing of my grandfather i was feeling incomplete. I'd seen many family members with their significant others and it made me realize i haven't had "somebody" since when i was living in greece and dating Armando. Don't get me wrong, there were guys here and there since, but nothing serious or substantial.
so, through a series of events, i began emailing with and talking to a guy that was moving to the area here where i am, and it was great. Seamless 2 hour long conversations at night, texting throughout entire days - there was such a click. He closed on his house last friday, so we met at a local spot to see if the connection continued. And tada - it has. I would not say i'm in love, but i'm certainly smitten. Since friday we've gotten together 3 times - Saturday, Tuesday and last night.
I'm leaving for the trade show in Orlando Tuesday morning for a week, and i'm hoping we'll be able to get to spend a little more time together before I leave, but i'm not too worried if we don't.
great smile, great kisser, funny. :) it's a good feeling, folks.
we aren't talking bf/gf or relationship (yet) but there have been conversations where phrases such as "I can't wait until the summer when I can bring you to my parents summer house in NH and go jet skiing and hang out by the lake" have come out. so right now, i'm enjoying what is, for today. which is nice.
in other news - passed 20 months sober on wednesday. 4 months to 2 years. boy how time has passed. any previous attempt of "i'm never drinking again" never lasted more than a week, generally 2-3 days... so it's good.
so, yes - FL from tuesday to tuesday, then CA at the end of the month. :)
for today - life is good. hope all is well, lj land.
