My Leap Day - An Alternate Reality
I had an entry started where I was simply whining again about my relationship woes, but tonight something cool happened.
Meredith, Stephanie and I went to the minor league hockey game, and it was very fun, but I had to leave a bit early for movie night for Michelle's birthday. Matt called when he was on his way, and I said I'd meet him on Greene St, so I left the Coliseum and started looking around for his car.
I was waiting on some steps when a group of older guys walked by. They weren't sketchy or anything, probably 30-something. I really didn't focus on whether they were cute or not. They just seemed like some guys that were out having a good time. One of the guys asked me as they walked by how I was tonight, and I said good. He and the rest of the guys were talking about where they were going to go next and I guess they decided on a bar, called Durkins. And then another walked by with his fist out, and he asked me to pound it. Then he asked if I wanted to come to Durkins with them, and I said "what is that" and he just laughed. And then he started in on a conversation with me.
I told him that I had other things to do tonight anyhow, that I was celebrating a friend's birthday. And then he asked if their birthday was today, since it's Leap Day. So we talked about that a bit. Then he goes on to say that he's married, but all his friends are single and I should come along. Maybe he thought I was making up the plans thing, but then my phone rang and he said "guess that's your friend" and I told him to have fun, and he said likewise, and then we said goodbye. It was cute.
But the moral of the story is, I got hit on by a married man.
