Shuffling Forward
Once again, it's time to lay down my brainmeats for public consumption. ^_^
Since my last post, I feel a bit better about things. I've been thoughtfully reminded by friends that it does indeed bite to be alone. So, I won't give in to laziness or the path of least resistance. Even if finding someone is taking far longer than my heart--or libido--would want, I'm still going to keep looking. It's just a matter of keeping myself open to possibility and fighting against my introvertive nature.
This past weekend was nothing if not mildly interesting....if you call violent stomach illness interesting. This past Saturday I was completely fit and healthy. The Sunday following, the moment I wake up to use the bathroom, the entire room starts to spin. The more I move, the worse it spins. This happened to me about three times in a row during the day, until the point where an ambulance had to be called in to haul me to the hospital. After some laying in a bed and another bout of vomiting, I was diagnosed with gastroenteritis, was given some nausea pills, and shuffled out the door. I spent the Monday and Tuesday feeling generally dizzy and miserable, waiting for my own immune system to battle through my stomach bug and get back to its regular iron self.
Trust me, when I say iron, I mean "Pass the tabasco sauce these hot wings aren't hot enough" kinda iron. ^_^
So, while I had a four day weekend and am facing a three day work week, I can't really say I enjoyed myself. Perhaps just a fact that my body had had enough of stress and decided to force me into a bit of a vacation.
There sure are alot of other ways I'd like to spend my free time, though... >_<
Past that, nothing much else has gone on with me. Which, in retrospect, is rather sad....I mean, I've spent the entire post talking about me vomiting. Talk about compelling reading...
....so lemme switch subjects right quick.
Romantically speaking....things are still on a bit of a quiet point, though I've made contact with a couple of people who are at least interesting to me. One person is a guy named Josh....a bisexual and feisty guy who lives in Kentucky, whom I met online in City of Heroes. Figures....the one guy I've met in awhile who's sexually interested in me (Maki notwithstanding....frisky boi. ^_^) ends up living in the middle of nowhere. There is someone in the actual state that I live in that has piqued my interest...a guy who works in VIP Services named Micheal who pings pretty hard on my gaydar. To make things better--or worse--he seems to share alot of common interests, like gaming and comics. So what's the problem? I'm not entirely sure if he's even aware that I exist, let alone romantically interested. So, while I just take time building a repoire and getting a bead on his feelings, I've kept my eyes open to other potential guys....
....and in that search, I've found another bar near where I live, as Club 251 was, apparently, shut down. This place is called "The Brass Rail". Swanky, no? I'll definitely be reporting back about that place once I have a chance to visit.
In the meantime, though, I keep my eyes open, my heart willing, and my libido in check....more or less. ^_^
There, now, see that? THAT'S alot more interesting to read, no? So, let's go ahead and end this on a high note, shall we? Thanks to everyone for reading my ramblings and offering your support. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone, and may you be reminded of the good things harvested to your life.
Blessed be!! And lots of blown kisses, too.
