Help I need somebody, not just anybody, help
Man I hate how Mondays feel like Sunday and then the whole week feels so weird.
So this brings me to my weekend update, which for the record I prolly would have done earlier, but I didn’t have Internet. So yay for having it back.
So this week really has not been one of the best, I am beginning to get more and more frustrated with my job and have begun to look for other options, although I told myself I wouldn’t do it. Bad Mel.
Ok so with that said I needed to get out Saturday night. Well earlier in the week as I was covering a school board meeting, I ran into a guy I met back in November. Well I left before anything was decided and the district spokeswoman had to call me to tell me what the board decided. Well the next day I get an e-mail from this guy, whose name is Adam, complimenting me on my story and asking me how I got info that he thought I wouldn’t get. Well I e-mailed him back and next thing I know he asked to maybe talk over coffee or a drink. So Saturday comes and we decided to go to Northgate, no coffee for this girl who had a bad week haha. So I call him after work, of course after I find out about Bryan’s first murder of the year, yeah great timing. So I drive up to meet him. He was really nice and met me at the parking garage entrance so I didn’t have walk by myself in the cold. We chilled at Fitwilly’s for a bit until it got too loud because they had a live band and he kept saying he really wanted to hear what I was saying. So we went to Duddleys which was a bit quieter. We had a good conversation. We have lot in common, but the best is he loves baseball just like me! Can’t go wrong there. He was a gentleman the whole night, paid for everything and was cute and would put his arm around me when we walked outside because it was so cold. He is a property manager as well as works for WTAW, the local AM station here in town. He is also taking some real estate classes and is in the National Guard. He graduated from A&M with his master’s and he seems very intelligent.
The catch? He is 31.
Now I know that is not bad, but my cut off was 5 years older because my parents are 5 years apart. But he seems cool and he does kind of act younger, not in a bad immature way though. Plus I am mature for my age and I am practically 24…Okay, okay in three months…But I mean I think I need to experience the older crowd. I mean guys my age only break my heart, use me and treat me crappy, so maybe older is the way to go…but then again who knows… I know any guy can do that.
Now of course I don’t know what he wants. I mean he may just want a journalist to talk to or get him into The Eagle for all I know. But at the end of our w/e you want to call it (I wouldn’t say date) he did ask if he could call me again. So I guess we will see. I for one am still cautious and that wall is still very much not moving right now.
I mean I know it’s not bad and I think I analyze things too much. I had asked Kelly earlier in the day of what she thought because I was having second thoughts about going. (I really respect her she is like a big sister and gives me all kinds of advice, just gotta remember she is one of my bosses). Anyways, she was told me that I should go and “who wouldn’t want to go out with a smart, pretty girl” (Among other stuff of course) Awww thanks Kelly. She made me feel a bit better and so I went and had a good time.
I think I want to get to know him better. I hope he feels the same way, but I guess only time will tell.
Oh and WHOOP to the Patriots going to the Super Bowl!!! :-)
