Just got home a half hour ago from bear night. My brain's a bit fried on a few levels so I'll get out what I can. The reasons for my state may or may not become apparent from my story.
Friday night after work, I hit the gym and then headed over to the Oympic for pagan coffee night. Probably due to the weather, there were only about a half dozen other people there but I did recognize a few faces. Amber gave me a big hug when I got there. It was nice to see her again. After that, I headed home to relax, game, and do some laundry. (Just towels so it was an easy batch.)
Saturday morning, I got up and relaxed while I gamed a bit before getting ready to hang out with
finch_bear and David. We chatted for a bit and then popped in The Trip. Very cute movie at some points and very sad in others but very cool either way. Then we went to dinner at Athena's and had a very nice meal. The place was packed. After that, we relaxed back at my place for a while before going to bear night.
We got to the bar a little early to get parking spots. (They followed me so they could just head home when they were ready.) Some other people they knew were there too so they had plenty of people to talk to. After the bear club's meeting more people started showing up and the place quickly filled up. They were selling raffle tickets for 4 baskets they had. I bought and arm's length for $5 tho I know I never win at these things. Dave ended up getting an arms length too but since they were leaving soon, he left them with me. I went around chatting with a few people and talked to
daxcub who will be moving next week. (Gonna miss him.) Found out he sees me as "quiet and demure". Not the rep I really thought I had. I mean, I know I'm no party animal, but I guess for me it's more like a "it doesn't happen often but when it does, look out" sort of thing. I was supposed to meet a guy Mike there and I thought he wasn't going to show. Around 12:30, he shows, gives me a hug, says it was nice meeting in person and then walks away and proceeds to ignore me for the rest of the night. WTF? Then they had the drawings for the raffle. Dave won 2 baskets -- and he's back in Canada now. :P I do my thing and think about leaving soon. I end up sticking around and being a tad naughty. Flirted with one cute guy who was a tad drunk, got a few good kisses from the cute guy, ended up reaching into the pants and groping 3 or 4 guys (including said cute guy), and ended up in a group shirtless shot in the bar. Part of me wants to say "Fuck guys! I'm staying single til I move" after Mike but part of me wants to see the time with the cute guy as a positive but then I also remember his intoxication level. So, on top of the current mind fuck, it's been snowing so I had to deal with that on the way home.
I need a good night's sleep!
