It's been three weeks since I last got on here, I think. Maybe four, probably four considering my schedule but that is neither here, there or related to anything this entry is about.
Back on October 21 I went to SeaWorld's Howl-O-Scream event with Erin Johnson. It started at 7:30p and was running late per usual so I was hauling ass up I-4 thinking Erin was already ahead of me. Was in line for parking when I learned she hadn't left yet. Thought I would be waiting a while to find out she now lives in Orlando and was about 15 minutes away. It was their first year doing it and it showed a bit. They were only using a portion of the park. You entered through a side entrance over by the water ski stadium, went over to Wild Arctic that was converted into a haunted house for the event, down the path between Shamu Stadium and the lake, up to the hospitality house area, and dead ended outside the shark exhibit and restaurant. The theme for this year was sirens(women who lure you to your death type) and there was each house was themed around one of the four sirens. Fire, Ice, Lust, and Corrupted love(?). There wasn't very good signage to tell you where things were but I can only guess that they assumed you would come across everything since that was basically one path through the entire thing. The stage performance in the theater between Hospitality house and the shark encounter what a take on Jack the Ripper. I found it entertaining but it wasn't great. The best part was the Paul Bearer percussion guys that were using chef knives on a casket. Erin looked as hawt as she usually does because gawd DAAAAAAMMMM she has a nice body at this point in her life. We knocked out the four houses and scare zones by like 11:30p. Aly Carter was working the event as one of the dancers by the front and we were able to catch her on our way out.
https://www.facebook.com/moonlitegirl8/posts/10219973488956316 I tried to put it out there that I wanted to go to the various events this year with people but usually heard through Facebook when people went to things either when it was happening or after the fact. The only consultation I had was I kept hearing things weren't has good this year as they had been in the pre-Covid times. I think just in general haunt events were lackluster this year. I chalk it up to organizers trying to plan cast size and stuff not knowing what Covid restrictions would be in place by the time of the event and their budget got cut due to eccentrically losing a year of number in 2020.
So I met woman at work named Jasmine and after we both mentioned wanting to go to Busch Gardens HoS I waited after work for her and asked if she would like to go with me on the 30th and got her number. I texted her at some point and told her I was interested in dating her and she said we can get to know each other and she was open to it. She wasn't feeling well mentally Saturday and wasn't up for going. Sunday she got a hold of me and asked if I wanted to go but after texting back and forth we ended up going to Sir Henry's Haunted Trail. Due to time constraints, and the fact she said she lived in Port Richey, we decided to meet there as opposed to riding together. She either bought the tickets just before going out of the door or on the way. I got there just after she did and we met at the front gate to go in. The first trail we did was a vampire masquerade type and was was more of just a haunted house than a trail. The second and third ones at one point opened up into an actual trail like I was expecting. Definitely felt like there were areas that could/should have had scare actors. The line for the first one took a whole but the lines for the other two were really quick. Knocked the whole thing out with a half hour to spare. We talked for a little bit at her car and hugged a couple of times. I think it went well.
We've been texting back and forth since then and trying to keep things casual at work so as to avoid rumors. I've been trying to arrange to see each other again outside of work but so far I haven't had any luck and our schedules at work are completely opposite of each other for another week then she goes from full time to PRN so she can go back to school.
I'm currently messaging back and forth with two other people on Bumble but that doesn't seem to be panning out very well. Also Nicole, the one I match with through OkCupid, finally was upfront about not wanting to continue pursuing anything with me. She can kiss my ass with her deactivating and making new OkCupid profiles. Her loss. Dating will happen with someone eventually. I just have to give it time and not try to rush it.
