Last night Dan came over after work and he and I went out to Carmodys with Eliza and Dave and Mariel. And of course, there was good music, and good beer and a good time was had by all. But I was so distracted all night and I hate that. I was distracted by Rick and his presence in the bar. I was distracted by him looking at me through the corner of my eye. I was distracted by the fact that I knew he was going to ask me about the rocks.
This is a rough translation of what I remember "I feel like you owe me some rocks", he says. "No I dont, I dont think I owe you anything" some banter, and astonishment on his part and he says, "was I really that dickish" "Yeah! Yeah, you were." and we ended it, like other conversations, with me trying to get away and vague goodbyes.
I was so happy to show off Dan and show off the smile he puts on my face, but rick was boiling under my skin the whole time. And I told him that I'm keeping the rocks, and I said goodbye.
And I went home with Dan, and spent the night with a man who respects me, and comforts me, and think about my needs as well as his own. And he kissed me so sweetly, and stroked my hair, and hugged me tightly, and all my angry thoughts melted away.
