Hand me the wine and the dice! I want my carnival now while I have thirst and lust for living...!
So this weekend was definitely a little crazy...So let's start on Thursday...
I decided to go to Coloseeum (my local NJ haunt) with David and his BF Stephen and of course I met up with a ton of people I knew there. It's really like a gay version of Cheers, but louder and I digress...
The only part of the story that matters (aside from the really bad main floor music that night) was that I did meet someone! Yay! But isn't there always a catch? And that's why I'm writing right now...
His name was Mike and I met him through my friend Nikki. Aside from being absolutely gorgeous, he was intelligent and knew much more about than just the latest club drama. He goes to Harvard Law School for Corporate Law if that's any indication lol... And we talked (after being introduced) for about an hour about alot of things... Law, Baseball, New York Post 9/11, Bush & Kerry... Just stuff...But it was interesting nonetheless.
So I mentioned to Nikki that I thought he was really good looking and she said she was going to say something to him. Believe it or not, I do get shy when it comes to guys.
At around 1:30 we were still talking upstairs and they started clearing it all out and moving everyone downstairs to the main floor. Mike and I walked downstairs and when we got to the bottom, there was an awkward moment. I said "Well, I have to go find my friends..." and he said "Uh, yeah...and I have to go get my jacket...so..." and then I said "Um...yeah..." (I'm so articulate) and he said "Well, find me before you leave, ok?"... I agreed and found my friends. I didn't know what to do or if I should say anything at all...
So I went to go find Nikki to say goodbye to her and Mike was with her already. She motioned me to go and dance with her and while we were dancing she said that she didn't say anything to Mike because she didn't get a chance too. HE had said something to HER! Well, this naturally made me very excited!! He told her that I was so cute and that he wanted to hang out with me this weekend before he went back to school! Yay! I was excited!
I got his number from Nikki and he told me to call him the next day, Friday.
Friday around 1:30 in the afternoon, I give him a buzz and he told me that he was going to the San Gennaro feast with his brother and that he would call me when he got home and that we would meet up later that night...
7:00...8:00...9:00... I call Nikki. She said that she spoke to him and that he was going out to eat with his brother and that he would call when he was done... I went to her house in the meantime to hang out and if you can't guess where this is going to call, I'll tell you the end of it:
He never called that night.
He never called on Saturday either.
But trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, I called him around 8:30 Sat night and left a voicemail somewhere along the lines of "Hey, I didn't hear from ya, but I hope everything's ok. Gimme a buzz if you get a chance and I'll ttyl..."
Now, in careful review of all the prior events, I can't help but feel like I did nothing wrong. Even in fact to say, what the hell because HE said something first!!??
Ah well! I'll never understand, nor am I devastatingly upset. I don't even know the kid. It does make ya wonder what the hell is up though? I dunno...just doesn't make sense...
And Saturday night. Well, that was just a mess from the word GO! I'm definitely not going to write about it...What happens at Paradise STAYS at Paradise... It was definitely a great night though!
LOVE YA CRAIG!!!
Till Then,
John
